Got Oxide Tape Recorder 😀

An excellent choice!

I already own all of them, but I love UAD plugins and this is a fantastic freebie offer. Great find, @MrFigg! Kudos. This easily earns a place on the Best Freebies of Black Friday 2025 that I have pinned.

LOL, now it’s Sound on Sound with the exact same landing page except the logo

That’s ridiculous ahaha

I posted that last month. I have compassion for Sound on Sound, because they’ve historically been a really good publisher just struggling to stick around. I hav…Read More

It’s a tangent for sure, but I feel certain the mods won’t hassle us! What did you get, @anxiousmofo and are you enjoying it yet?

Okay, I take back when I wrote that the affiliate commissions cover around three months. The new rate is $189 per month. So I’m shopping for a new VPS. For any of you IT pros who can give a recommendation, I’m presently using Liquid Web and have been recommended to use this at a minimum: VPS with:

vCPUs: 12 Ram: 12.6GB Storage: 200GB

The reason…Read More

@fretman Man, that’s a lot of stuff going on. It’s fantastic how much music is an important part of your life. If not for my tendinitis, I’m certain that I would probably be playing out at jazz clubs. I used to say to musician friends when I was young (in my 20s) that when I got old (40s – 50s) that I’d focus on playing in small jazz bands where…Read More

I’ll put this in a tangent post rather than a PM, @mira. As you’ve already shared, for anyone reading this and wondering why I’m going on this tangent (!) — it’s because you’ve shared that you’re posting from the hospital.

You know that you’re an MVP here. You’ve been one of the people whose kindness was part of my inspiration to create this…Read More

Thanks for posting that, @bselack. After you did, I realized that someone had posted that, I just didn’t think of it when I made the post. I’m trying to burn through getting deals up, but I try to mention when I’m aware that another store has a better deal. That’s one of things that makes LM more valuable than the plugin and sample library deal…Read More

If @patrickwichrowski thinks it’s worthwhile — I’m in! I’m guessing you probably know all about the hardware this emulates. I do recall how beloved the hardware chorus effect this emulates was among keyboardists back in the day.

All the Toontrack Black Friday Sale Phases so…Read More

NOTE: I own Signature 1 (now part of the Black Friday deal) and I love it. In fact, I’m using it on a couple of tracks I’m going to release soon, including a new version of No Surprises featuring a very talented lead singer (obviously, that means, not me!). Consequently, I enthusiastically recommend Signature 1. Signature 2 sounds great, but it’s…Read More

BTW, I’ve personally picked up UJAM Usynth Stranger and UJAM Reverb 2 for $5 each and think they were both fantastic deals. I also picked up the Rhythm Box deal to give the MixBox code to a friend.

Me and my friend and keyboardist, Dave (Dave’s on the right hand side, I’m the third guy from the left (clearly, a lot shorter than my friends and sporting a mullet — this was the mid 90s when we were working on the original band), the other two guys are other friends of mine, the first guy, Ed, plays guitar and I should ask him to join LM — in…Read More

If we’re going down a Warren Zevon, I’m on board!!! Back in the day, the song that they played on Chicago radio (WXRT) A LOT of his was “Werewolves of London,” but the song that made me go out and buy my first Warren Zevon ablum and become a fan was, “Lawyers, Guns, and Money.”

If anyone else buys this kit, Cory Pelazarri put together fixes for Kontakt that make signficant improvements. You’ll want to download them (free) here:
