Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
Arguably it's not because he's popular, he's popular in part because he deals with popular music, that is not his IP, and he has not followed the normal procedure to get permission first, instead he waits for the strike and tries to argue fair use and uses that drama as another way to gain ...

Re: SOS launches MERCHANDISE Store
Looks great. I know it's quite niche, but I would definitely buy an SOS clutchpin. So perhaps you might consider adding those if you haven't already

See? I said charm was a powerful thing. We love narcissists, and we love the drama of the scandal that is their downfall. History repeats.

Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
Fair use is all well and good if you are an academic with a reach measured in thousands at the vey most, but Rick Beato has over 5 million subscribers to his channel. It think that goes beyond fair use, and into the realms of exploitation if he's not paying for the use of the music. Okay, you think ...

Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
I watched the Dave Gilmour interview. It was a good video, falling into the entertainment category for me. Rick is pretty insistent that Run Like Hell is a triplet delay. Oopsie Rick, it's a dotted eighth. Yes I've alwats said he always does a great interview. It is remarkable how people are ...

Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
I think this is back to front. If you want people to be interested in making and understanding music then you have to use music that people are interested in and know. You can't do a series breaking down great songs without using those great songs. That sounds to me like commercial motivation not ...

Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
It is sad to see so many small minded comments from musicians regarding this issue. I only see well considered posts on the issue so I disagree with your assessment. I’ve unfortunately had a lot of personal experience with sociopaths, therefore I believe my point to be well considered. Charm is a p ...

Re: Rick Beato v Universal Music Group
If there was an easier licensing option - a bit like how cover versions are licensed - with a sliding scale ranging from snippets (like the top ten reactions) to full song (as with some of the breakdowns) then it might be practical. But at the moment it would be a complete non-starter. Which is, of ...

Re: Male Vocal Mic Recs - Sample Included (~$500 Budget)
My two cents here. First, let me start by saying that you will almost never use anything else than the cardoid setting. I mean, I have seen ( heard? ) other patterns but maybe once every 5 years or so. Secondly, when you go for a LDC condenser microphone the room will make a lot more difference as ...

Re: AI Stem Separator ?
One that does precisely what you ask does not exist, yet. But audiostrip.co.uk does a lot of that- for example separate BVs from lead vocals, separate drum instruments, separate piano and guitar. It's obviously using the extant algorithms but it is reasonably priced, reliable and easy to use. I ...

Re: Reloading plugins after fresh install
There are two separate processes here. The DAW will expect wav files to have the same file path. In contrast, the plug-in will load its own content the from wherever the installation manager puts the content on your new install. Any settings such as mix tuning etc you made in the plug-in are saved ...

Nice app. Can you remember where you setup your MIDI controller keyboard? EdiSyn does this easily, but not Patch Base.

Re: Distorted telephone conversation
Try Adobe Enhance Speech V2 . I recently used it for a similar issue. Before processing, the other side was inaudible above the noise. After processing, it did not sound nice but you could clearly hear all that was said. I also used it on a reasonably audible phone conversation. After processing, it ...

Re: How do I connect the TC Electronic Finalizer 96k to the Focusrite 18i8?
Maybe I am confused... but only one device can be the master clock, right? My understanding is you normally can't have digital in and out simultaneously with spdif. I think what Hugh is describing is a feature of the TC, that it can get a clock from spdif while still outputting an externally clocked ...

Re: How do I connect the TC Electronic Finalizer 96k to the Focusrite 18i8?
No separate word clicking necessary if using the S/PDIF input to the Finaliser as that interface is self-clocking. So Focurite S/PDIF out to TC S/PDIF in. Set the TC to clock from its digital in. TC S/PDIF out to Focusrite S/PDIF in. Set Focusrite as clock master (computer). That's a neat feature ...

Re: Does anyone know how to use a pedal to control the mid-EQ assign knob of a Roland Juno DS-88?
You are right it appears it cannot be done. Mid EQ is not listed as a destination for pedal control in the Parameter Guide . However you can assign aftertouch to be controlled by the pedal, and aftertouch can control an MFX parameter, so maybe you could get it done that way? Would seem to require ...

Re: How do I connect the TC Electronic Finalizer 96k to the Focusrite 18i8?
BNC to RCA 75ohm cable also needed for wordclock sync if you are to use any of the digital audio interface options including SPDIF i/o.

Re: Is it dangerous to mix a Yamaha FC9 expression Pedal with a Roland Juno DS-88 synth?
The FC9 manual is fairly clear. You definitely should not be using the battery powered or any mains adapter powered functionality with the Roland expression pedal input. Really bad. Do not do that. The powered function is when you wire it in series with the line output of the synth. NOT for the ...

Re: Sustain problem
Agreed. RTFM 
The switching pedals I mentioned are just as solidly built as the Roland. The extra cost of the Roland is in making it both solid and continuous.

Re: Sustain problem
It depends on if you want switched (TS jack) or continuous (TRS) control. The Yamaha and the Roland are electrically identical so you may have the same problem with both. Although the Roland lets you select Switched mode or Continuous. Total waste of that pedal to use it in switched mode. A cheaper ...
