Excellent. Christmas is now officially sorted.

I studied piano through lessons and practice - certainly done 10000 hours! I’ve learnt guitar and am still having lessons- not 10000 hours! I’ve studied Logic and read the manual - seemed like 10000 hours! I’ve seen stuff on YouTube (so who knows if it’s real and “spontaneous “) of folk who have done ...

Sound on Sound has been my go to reference since 1986 when I first started home recording! I think it’s fair to say you’ve taught me most of what I know about the mechanics of audio and ably assisted me in spending a shed load of cash on excellent products over the intervening years! Synth Secrets an ...

Well it sounds like a simple poly from that era, maybe a Juno or Korg polysix with reverb. I’d say either could get you very close. Maybe experiment with a freebie like https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/1-Instruments/4-Synth/435-TAL-U-NO-62?srsltid=AfmBOorh5lzv_tx-wh14ag1l-1 ...

I use the Amplitude and Positive Grid JC120 as my main guitar emulation and the odd Minimoog input!

Nice

Ian

I’ve often enjoyed Martin Peters’ work with modular, normally melodic and interesting - certainly his music seems to reflect his life!

Ian.

They USED to say "television is killing the art of conversation" I think fekkin' NR emails will finish it off I’m just trying to track some anti malarial tablets from a reputable on line pharmacy, their confirmation email is…..a NR email. Only contact details are via chat bot thingy :crazy: Ma ...

It's called marketing Dave...

Spluttered tea over sandwich Drew!
I can hear the deadpan delivery…..

Mind you same thing happen to me!

Ian

Or do nothing and that will eventually turn into something.

I wish!

Ian

I plumped for the Moog One rather than go modular and have never regretted it. It’s very special probably broke Moog (!) but it can do everything I need, plus it feels like an instrument not a computer. I played it the other day after a while and was blown away again by its easy complexity. Moog r ...

Quite agree it’s a stack of stuff and v well regarded stuff at that.

Guido3 that’s a lovely thing to do and I’m very glad that spitfire agreed to help.



Ian

Are tempo values changed?
Is Varispeed active?
Have you rebooted your Mac and reloaded you project?
Are all files audio or have you midi there too? Is that the same?
Ian

We're going to keep doing all of the above as and when necessary. And long may it continue Eddy, this forum is a remarkable oasis in the swamp of half truths and opinion masquerading as fact that litters the rest of the internet. If people wish to protest or create more division, there are other ...

Checking tomorrow! Good call. Especially with the mercury zooming ever upwards.,.

Ian

Nice!

Ian

Just read the BBC reviews of the first date live last night. Gushing! Anyone seeing(seen) them like to chip in on the sound and performance?

I sang along back in the day, but decided I could manage without seeing them live this reunion. Was that a mistake I’m wondering?

Ian

I've also brought this to the attention of the higher-ups to give a considered answer. One of the most remarkable things about this community is its ability to be a place where music and music making is paramount and even when the odd non musical topic pops up, discussion is balanced and evidence ...

Yes very poignant. I liked it a lot. I’m glad it worked out for him and you all. He has a lovely voice.

I use BFD and yes you can “tune” the samples. Tuning section Tune / st The Tune function increases (clockwise from centre position) or decreases (anti-clockwise from centre position) the pitch of the Drum. It is possible to tune Drums up to an octave away from its original pitch. The amount of tun ...

I don't think I have bought any hardware, and much software, without first being informed by an SOS review.

^This, the only exception being a Minimoog! Although I was pleased it did get a good review subsequently

Ian

I’m awaiting the SOS review. (Hoping it’s soonish). This is where SOS is invaluable over all those YouTube “independent “ reviews. In fact I did wonder some time ago if there might be a SOS video review channel to complement some of the other great video stuff? Maybe too onerous to do properly alongs ...

I use MusicLab instruments a lot and now supplement that with my growing guitar skills (coughs a little) Anyway Im pretty sure it does translate the keyboard chords and voicing to proper guitar fingering IIRC and the humanise functions are stellar. Ive been a tester for their instruments for ...

How true! I dread updating too, and is it one of those dratted download managers that are more pervasive these days. these managers should make the process easier, seamless and tidy but not in my experience. They still leave lots of files scattered all over my Mac, particularly if you try to set up ...

Well I did it eventually. I’m not convinced the preference to install on an external disk in ASC helped matters. So a very manual deletion of all Arturia components including ASC and reinstalled to local disk managed it. Not great but everything now works including all presets. Although my presets a ...
