Re: Building Soundproofed Studio
My band is building a 12x15 structure for rehearsals and tracking. I assume that's feet and not metres? We hsve material selected for the insulation and proofing which is upholstery foam. Upholstery foam is unsuitable for soundproofing; it's not dense enough. For soundproofing you need mass ...

Re: Your favourite synth filters?
Perhaps oddly, I can't say I've got any favourite filters. In the Anlogue realm I'm particularly fond of the Analogue Solutions Ample and Arturia PolyBrute but that's down to the pairing of their respective oscillator + filter combinations. I'd also give honourable mention to the digital filters on ...

Re: Roland E-09
Welcome to the forum :wave: The E-09 is an arranger keyboard as opposed to a full-on synth. It was a cheaper option than some when it was released (I think it was around 2010) but it has some decent sounds some of which can be auditioned here . It has an onboard 16-track sequencer but these days it ...

Re: Looking for volunteers to run this tech demo -- help/feedback needed!
I'm intrigued and would like to try this but when you say '3-4 devices' (which you also mention on the linked page) there is no contextual information as to what those devices are or what their capabilities should be. I'm also unclear on what they are being fed info/audio/MIDI(?) by. In your photo ...

Re: Dongleless iLok Question
Heard back. iLok Non-Cloud Non-Dongle appears to be the same as iLok Cloud - you have to have deauthorise on one machine to use it on another. No Altiverb or Speakerphone for me, then.

Re: If you don't ask, you don't get (a happy support story)
... is this your first Mac or are you just updating an existing studio machine? I ran Logic on a Mac Pro from 2009 - 2018, then moved to Studio One on Windows when that Mac couldn't upgrade to El Capitan. As of now, I'm using Studio One on the new Mac, with the Windows machine available as a ...

If you don't ask, you don't get (a happy support story)
When duplicating my Windows DAW plugins to my new Mac I encountered a single plugin (Symphonic Choirs Platinum from EastWestSamples) that used iLok and only allowed one machine to have the plugin activated at any given time. I sent them a polite feedback email explaining that though I really liked ...

Re: EdiMIDI - A polyrhythmic sequencer in the works
There are so many different models to choose from when it comes to these kinds of thing that some people get bogged down in decision-making as opposed to progressing implementation. There's no single right answer for everyone, it's all about finding the best way forward for one's specific ...

Re: Plug in ARM compatibility question
May I ask how much your new Mac was Eddy ? I think he just told you. and if it lasts me 5 years, which I'm sure it will, then that's a £57/month investment. :geek: :D :D The specification I ended up with (16 core, 64Gb, 2Tb) was £3,399 though some of that is pure Apple tax on RAM and Storage. If I'd ...

Re: Plug in ARM compatibility question
I am a long term Windows user but to be candid if I were looking at replacing the current studio laptop, I would probably go with Apple. I just did albeit with a Mac Studio as opposed to a laptop. My 'old' DAW is a Windows 11 system, 32Gb RAM and an Intel i9 CPU. It's no slouch. The new DAW is a ...

Re: EdiMIDI - A polyrhythmic sequencer in the works
It possibly sounds a bit like what R has been doing with his Photon Engine software which has to work in both Windows and Linux. I'll forward your post to him and see what he says... For his application an immediate mode GUI would be perfect though I seem to recall he's already implemented one that ...

Re: EdiMIDI - A polyrhythmic sequencer in the works
A year has passed during which this project stalled somewhat but I'm reviving the topic as I've moved forward again by addressing the reason why it got a bit bogged down previously. The core concept (and the code that implements it) is solid. The problem was the GUI. As EdiMIDI is a graphical ...

Cheers Drew. Sounds good to me both figuratively and literally. When it's wrapped at your end, let me know and I'll see if any of the phantom parts I hear work in reality!
