fretman replied to the topic Studio One 7 has Landed! in the forum Virtual & Physical Music Gear Deals
A review is here.
I find myself using stem separation and tempo detection quite a bit now-a-days when transcribing music for my classical guitar class. Those new features will be useful.
Has anyone seen a better price than $150? That’s not a “deal”, but the standard upgrade price, right?

I think they’re fine for light use. Maybe even for not-so-light use.

I had most of Kirks libraries over the years, I will write up some essentials later today, what was fab is that his libraries were focused on playing techniques and fantastic legatos in an very accessible way. He led the way with polyphonic legato technology!You “had”? Did you end up selling them?
fretman started the topic Orange Tree Guitar Fret Position CC in the forum Samplers, Sample Players & Sample Libraries
Moderator: Please move this to the correct forum. I couldn’t figure out where to put it.
<hr />
To make Orange Tree guitars sound the most realistic, the fret position needs to be manually adjusted to where you want the note played. I found this most easiest to do using CC. Greg does this by using CC2, Breath Controller, in his demos, so…Read More

This is part of Mercury, so it’s one reason I may WUP. Let’s see what else comes up before I decide for sure.
fretman replied to the topic Free util to convert .cwp (CbB and earlier) to .song (Studio One) in the forum DAWs, Hosts & Audio Editors
CdB’s MIDI/VSTi implementation seemed very awkward to me. I never got the feel of how that worked. Studio One’s approach seems much more intuitive to me. Plus, it’s plethora of training materials let’s me find what I want pretty easily. The work flow just seems to fit my style (mostly acoustic driven instrumentals – all…Read More

fretman replied to the topic Klevgrand 48 hours price drop in the forum Virtual & Physical Music Gear Deals
Here’s a lullaby I wrote using a music box. It didn’t make the cut because the music box “needs EQ to tame the harshness” (and the strings were “too much”).

When playing the piece something wasn’t quite right, but I couldn’t place my finger on it. When I muted the harp it seemed like a veil was lifted and I could hear the detail in…Read More
