I’m in IT and often field requests in the same way Jorge did (thanks!)

Many installers will trip VirusTotal with one or a few “heuristic” alerts that essentially mean there are “virus like” aspects to the installer. I think in many cases it’s just the scanner has never seen the file before. Many installers trip these type alerts.

I installed New York L 1926 Lite – I love it – seriously considering the bundle even though I don’t play acoustic piano that much.

Because I have Little Plate V5 given to me in a promotion I can get all their products for $239. As a mixer of rock/altrock I’m thinking maybe I should do this.

I’m leaning towards Blue3, Wurlybird and GX-80 at this point – in the cart.

I think it ends with the New Year. The only product I’ve bought from Cherry Audio is Lowdown. I have CA2600, MemoryMode, Polymode and Voltage Modular and Surrealistic MG-1 through promotions (think it was one of the Humble Bundle offerings).

I would get the GX-80, Mercury 4 and DC-106 if I go for it. I like 80s synth sounds.

I’ve been under the impression that Dirk was (while running PA) something of a jokester and that the marketing was purposely over the top. I’ve gotten some software I use every day for free from them, the Ampeg B15N developed by Igor Nembrini being one. Many comment that Waves’ marketing is similar.

Finally got the 25 Free Jam Points email this morning. Trying to figure out how to put them where my gear credits are 🙂

We visited a commercial studio recently and the owner who has co-produced with Phil Ramone told us that they run both ProTools and Logic. He and his engineer recommended Logic for our situation (mostly recording our own band). I agreed with that because an IT partner of mine moved to Logic after years of Cubase on PC’s and enthusiastically…Read More

In this case I think they are making a point about Antares pricing

The code worked just now (12:52 EST Dec 26) – I’ve been looking for an Antares alternative – this looks promising.

Thanks for this link – I got an email at the studio for that account to redeem the 25 Jam Points but hadn’t figured out why my personal account didn’t have the offer.

Someone mentioned that there is a 60 day grace period – It seems to good to be true that I could get the 25% discount and the upgrade for free – perhaps Pro-Q4 won’t be out for the next two months?

I always use Legends of Rock. It works well with edrums. We use the kit sometimes for jams. I run it “stereo” through a pair of EV 12 subs/Eon10’s. I have preset with the room mics lowered and a lot of adjustments such as bringing up the volume on the cymbals. It sounds quite a bit like an acoustic kit being played in the room. This never worked…Read More

Thing about Sonnox Oxford Limiter for $29. I use Waves Magic Mushroom, Shadow Hills Mastering Compressor and T-Racks One depending on what we are trying to accomplish with a mix. I also sometimes “post process” with Lurssen.

Anyone using (or used to use) the Sonnox Limiter?

Our family had a lot of fun with those games back in the day. Those LucasArts classics hold up well over time. Still fun to play and the artwork, animation and voice acting is first class

Thanks for that info – I figured that was the case, but you can always hope 🙂

Glad you’re happy with it – I’m thinking it will be worth it for me also. Glad you posted about it, I was unaware of the library.

Hi Peter,

While shopping the library on the Spitfire website I discovered there is a BF code for an extra 20% off. I wrote support asking for a code as I haven’t been subscribed to any of their marketing email.

Here’s the info on the extra 20% off:

===================

Codes will be distributed to customers who have spent £99/$99/99€ or mo…Read More

Just finished listening to the Paul Thomson and Christian Henson YouTube videos about the Abbey Road Two: Iconic Strigs library. Then I watched Blair Borland who had many critical points but actually his video convinced me that this would be a good string ensemble library for me.

One of my first VST purchases was Miroslav Philharmonik 2. I’ve…Read More

Tempting – I’m on 19 through Humble Bundle. Pretty used to the software and can get multi camera music videos edited fairly quickly (aligned with mix down from multi track). What’s attractive in this version is automatic alignment of each camera’s track.

Done – love Nembrini amp sims – I practice bass through the B15N. It sounds and plays just like the actual Ampeg B15N bass amp.

I’ve read that Phil had elaborate amplification at one time where each string went to different amp/cabs in addition to bi/amp for low and high.

I participated in this livestream Robin of Molten Music did with Pete Brown of Microsoft. I learned a lot:

1. What country do you live in?

USA

2. What musical instrument(s) do you play and when did you start playing?

Bass, guitar, keyboard, drums. Bass is main instrument – started on guitar in 7th grade – moved to bass a few years later.

3. Do you sing?

Harmony parts for band

4. What level of experience do you have with audio…Read More

I’ve done a lot of reading on ProTools and downloaded ReaTooled which is a collection of SMS scripts and Reaper theme customizations that streamline audio work in Reaper. I have tried many themes and toolbars in Reaper but usually revert back to the default theme with my own toolbar customizations. ReaTooled is the first customization of Reaper…Read More

I have a Dell Precision 5810 that is about 50 percent faster than my current music computer and has 4 times the RAM but I haven’t bothered to migrate to it because the installs/activations. So yes, I do dread doing a full reinstall 😐
