@bapu Just listened. That was a very nice improvement IMO. The drum sound works really well in this mix. Excellent job!

Great to see you, @thesteven.
Here’s hoping our MC @lawajava hosts another of his gettogethers. Or maybe @bapu will?

@Fleer Is that something I can facilitate here on the site through chat functionality or maybe a Discord Server? Let me know. I do want this community to go beyond just sharing d…Read More

@bapu did someone post?

@bapu the installer

(different from Vladu the impaler)

This mandolin oozes magic!

@spice3d Do you have a file of that song somewhere online?  I think that would be fun. Same for you, @bapu. Do you have any of your early band’s music uploaded somewhere you can link to? I think that would be fun. For me, it’s been so long, and I’ve moved several times, I can’t find any recordings of bands I played in. But I primarily played in…Read More

Wow, this is the first time I hear about Zinstall. Seems very handy indeed.

@bapu Would it transfer licenses to a new computer or we still have to unauthorize and re-authorize everything?

@bapu Everything I’ve heard of yours has been top notch — and I don’t say that easily (I haven’t done anything that’s at that level post-tendinitis). Do you have any vintage recordings you could share? You should share more of your music in our song sharing forum. Those covers you did with Fizzy Pickle are outstanding. My wife is a huge 80s fan,…Read More

@bapu

I’ve checked and everything is ok on this end.

Great classic shots, @bapu. i especially love that second one. Now, what’s the story behind the Bapu name?

Your friend who keeps the beat.

DISCLOSURE: I’ve advised more than 3 dozen sample and plugin developers on branding and marketing strategy. I’ve never been paid to make posts, they reflect my sincere opinions, and I’ve n…

Welcome to the non-toxic place @KirkHunter

I loved seeing that comment, @bapu. My mission– and yes, it’s idealistic–is to create an environment where everyone is treated with respect. Where there’s not a developer owner using the forum to defame competitors and bully developers, pushing crowds into following their worst…Read More

I did look at this @jih64 — isn’t this a cheaper deal than I’ve seen for upgrading my Studio One Pro 3? I think the best deal I saw for that was $149, sent to me by @bapu. It’s weird that they would offer a better deal to people with the less expensive version than…Read More

Cool. I dig it. Great job. Well written and performed. I’ve sincerely enjoyed everything I’ve heard that you’ve played on and I’ve easily listened to dozens of songs you’ve played on, @bapu

Thanks @bapu A lot of people asked for this, starting at the subreddit. I mainly hesitated out of liability concerns. If everyone abides by the rule of using PayPal and NEVER “Friends and Family,” if you make a payment and find the seller is less than legit, you’ll be able to get your money back. It might cost 5% more or whatever it is, but 5…Read More
