Context: most of my work is acoustic instrumentals, so don’t expect any synths from me.

Drum kits: I end up using Addictive Drums 2 because they’re so simple to use, but I’m not a very good drummer. Maybe I should send my sketches to Peter.

Frame Drums: Redroom Audio – the only VSTi I’ve found that let’s you independently control both the right…Read More

I finally caved and bought the Tonex pedal last year, and it is really neat.  I think they have been selling a ton of them.  All the magic is still in the software though- even if its ported to a stomp.  Probably true of most new pedals these days, at least if they are cramming a ton of FX in them.  IK also recently released that Vocal AI pro…Read More

What’s up with IK these days?  With all the fire-sale prices and discontinuation of some of their major software players (Sampletank, Mellotron to name two) I get the feeling they’re leaving the software world behind and moving towards a Tonex/hardware type future.

So glad you’re here, Mike!

Musio user here so I’m especially glad to have you here.  Pop in whenever you get a chance.

Welcome, Mike! Another satisfied lifetime owner here, grateful for Musio continuing to deliver value through the new libraries, features, and everything else the future holds. Big fan, Cheers

welcome mike and musio. it’s good to have you here.

@Brian Thanks, I’ll have to check that out.

Welcome Mike 😉

Hey @bselack –  Not speaking for Mike or Musio, but you might check out the Discord Channel for Musio.  There is a lot of engagement from the devs over there.  I am not really a fan of Discord- a little “cartoony” for my taste, but I try to look at it every week or so for folks like Musio and SoundPaint that hang out there.  Heck of a lot more tol…Read More

Welcome aboard Mike. As a Lifetime Musio owner, I’m glad to see that third party libraries have been added. I’d like to suggest a bit more communication, as this came as a complete surprise, and a number of us, I believe, had given up hope. So glad to have you here, and hope to hear more from you in the future.

Hello Mike and welcome to the forum!  Thanks for joining us here on LM and especially for working out the third party deal for us “Lifetime” Musio+ owners.  You set up a heck of a buffet table 👍

I’ll definitely check it out, I love British folk rock!

Yes, that!

So while watching a game, you took a persons name, to make it sound the same, or to cheer on the fame? Like fans feed the flame sometimes ya can’t blame.

That video sounds like the accompaniment for an old silent movie. The lady is tied to a train track and, oh no! The train is coming. Can the hero get there in time?
