It sounds like they sampled my Mom’s old piano that hasn’t been tuned in about 30 years. Brings back pleasant memories.

fretman replied to the topic Musesamples Summer Sale – 44% off Authentic Guitar Evocación for Kontakt (full) in the forum Virtual & Physical Music Gear Deals
This sounds pretty good to my ears. Lots and lots of articulations but the multi-instrument aspect is a little confusing (they all seem to use the same MIDI channel). Still,
- The Ponticello is sampled (not modelled) and sounds very good.
- They only sampled the notes available when the left hand is on frets 0, 5 and 9 – but they DO go from a low…

I wish these companies wouldn’t use such obtuse names. If I’m scrolling thru my plugins and see Ellixir I’d pass. How am I supposed to know what it does? I’ve got too many other plugins I can choose from that are easier to find.

fretman replied to the topic What are your thoughts on AI in the music creative process? Is it good or bad? in the forum The Sounding Board
I routinely use AI to generate graphics for my music – attaching it in the metadata file. Kinda like the art for an album cover, but it’s a single cover. I use Night Cafe which has a number of AI models to choose from, all for free. There’s no way I make enough money to pay for a person to do art for me. The art isn’t integral to the work I do.…Read More

Also, WUP gives you plugins that get added to their various bundles. Recently they added Sync VX to Mercury which aligns various tracks and is a worthy competitor to Vocal Align Pro which costs about the same as WUP when on sale.
And, they are still updating their old plugins. Recent updates include GUI scaling for large displays. WUP gives you…Read More

I apologize for my delayed response. It took me quite a while to find the Discord thread that discusses this. The only Soundcloud alternatives given to me are:
Dropbox (paid version): $10/month

Yes, they aren’t free. The only response I have is “if you’re not paying for the product then YOU are the…Read More

Their Toy Guitar sounds excellent. I can now play that prog rock song from the early 70’s from that European band (I think) by playing up behind the nut. Can’t remember the band. Can’t remember the name of the song. Can’t remember the song well enough to hum it into shazam.

By far my favorite is their mandolin. It cleans up very nicely when vel<50, but if you want some dirt then go for it vel>50.
2nd favorite is Dry Relic. I couldn’t pass off their Django Jazz for a French Gypsy Jazz piece, but their Dry Relic did.

Thank you for your kind words but unfortunately I no longer use SoundCloud. Sync libraries are starting to not accept submissions stored on Soundcloud because SoundCloud allows AI to scrape it’s contents for learning. Sync libraries can’t risk any licensing difficulties that may come up due to AI involvement.
