@Thor I remember you and I DMing about SSL Drumstrip and maybe VocalStrip2 a couple of years ago. Do you own one or both of these? If so, what’s your opinion? I know you’ve spoken very highly of SSL plugins in the past. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen these go this cheap.

@thor As a huge modular guy, what are your thoughts on this?

Best of the best.

That’s what @thor and @gregjazz have always told me. I just don’t have enough talent to be worth that kind of money! Although, is it just me, or has their EQ come down in price? But I’ve already invested in Sonible’s EQ4 — although I never redeemed the license from Best Service (oops) –…Read More

Thank you for the information @peter

I don’t understand why, that the code is distributed to a few people, they don’t make a single-use code. It’s technologically possible, and everyone avoids problems, extra work, and administrative tasks.

When they had the same problem with Trailer Xpressions, I under…

It’s really amazing when you think about how much these plugins sold for even a few years ago and how cheap we can get them now.  SSL is great stuff. I know my friend, @thor — who is one of the people I turn to advice (he has vastly more knowledge and skill then me; I’m just a guy who used to play drums a long time ago) — has spoke very highly…Read More

@Peter, I don’t own it, but people say it’s the best-sounding among all competitors in its niche, and the worst when it comes to usability

Hmmm…the usability part is what keeps me from using modular synths. I love the sound of them. I love the music that @thor and others make with them, but yeah, the…Read More

@thor Considering your love of modular synths, I’m wondering if you own this, and if you do, would you recommend it?

FTR, when I refer to my friends who know a lot more than me who I go to for advice on all things related to making music with a DAW, Thor is one of the people I turn to A LOT. He is a gaming music composer. He — like @GregJazz –…Read More

My friend @Thor has spoke highly of SSL plugins. Does anyone here have this who wants to weigh in?

Your friend who keeps the beat. I suppose I’m also the chef at this place.

I have it, don’t use it that much but it has a nice Hall.

Sad to see a business close down. Do they have anything absolutely and positively mandatory in their product range though, that one should be looking out for?

My friend @thor does music for video games and is a big fan of Kirk’s libraries — that was the root of our friendship. He’s a good one to ask. He’s one of the…Read More

One of my hopes in creating this site was to take the group of people I became very fond of from Cakewalk Forum bring them to a better environment where we could continue having great deals, but also encourage one another like my friends @gregjazz and @thor have encouraged me to attempt playing music again. I created this thread as an easy, fun…Read More

@thor is one of the friends I’ve referenced in a bunch of my posts over at the Cakewalk Forums who I regularly turn to for advice on all things audio. Greg (gregjazz) is another. And both of them have recommended FabFilter again and again — and candidly, my abilities aren’t worthy of that investment.

But it is really those two who are…Read More

I’m just going to tag the members I see listed as active and hope I can persuade them to post in this thread.

@musicianw @mibby @yanthesinger @BlackJackSchellac @thor @gregjazz Check out the first post. I created this thread to help us get to learn a little more about each other here and would love for all of you to join in! Just go to my…Read More
