I'd like one that does the opposite, as I'm fine on Guitar controller (Fishman Triple Play, GK-5, etc) but rubbish at keyboards.

Some of the Session Guitarist/Bassist for Kontakt are pretty good.
There's everything for various acoustics to 8 string Heavy Metal sylee stuff.

Thanks Dave

Definitely worth considering then.

I've had my old Alesis M1 Active Mk2s for years, but new neighbors, thin walls require headphones.

Are these for mixing only ?

I take it there is latency preventing vst usage etc ?

That was the best explanation of networking I've ever read. I hope you don't mind, but I've saved that, to save me much brain ache in the future. So far, anything I've done with networks have just worked (routers, switches, multiple computers, smart devices, using a second router as an add on, etc ...

I'll get on it tomorrow

Is there any point in keeping my newish GP-10 and GK3 ?

I have a GM800 and GK5, along with the converter box (which i may keep, in case i ever buy a used SY1000....again !)

That would go towards the VG800 and a GK5B

Scratch that.

£599 and 7th February..........or not, remembering the SY1000 availability.

I'll probably have one.
Do we know how much they want for it, and availability ?

Deleted wrong post

On mac studio I already have the last v10.

Do I uninstall that and then install v11, or should I install over the top

What about loops, instruments etc uninstall, or install over them ?

Our local Tesco has started to get SOS in again

Still problems with the v3 NI keyboards according to NI,
but I haven't checked their site today

Thanks Wonks.
That's cleared that up for me.

I'll just have to patient, like the rest of us

As a very new mac person of two days, I was holding off installing the mac versions of my audio programs until I felt I'd got to grips with the OS. Turned out just as well, as my Studio Max has Sonoma 14.4 on it. My programs and vsts on my Windows 10 setup use an ILok for quite a lot of stuff ...

Thanks Richard

One more question, if I may...

Would this external drive cut it for libraries like Hollywood Pop Brass, Komplete, etc ?

Portable SSD T7 Shield USB 3.2 Gen 2 4TB

Sorry, I couldn't find a direct link, it was just samsung.co.uk

Ah, I see.

Thanks

So AU is still the preferred plug in for Logic (when I get it) ?

Does anyone here run Studio One ?

Obviously, there are still problems with some NI stuff ( my S49mk3, for one), so I'll be sitting that out until they're sorted.

Thanks for everyone's help.

I've been having a read of the stickies and some threads here, as I'm going to invest in a Mac Studio Max with 1tb and 64gb ram. I still use a PC with Studio One 6.5, Komplete CE 14, some Toontrack, and Cubase 12. So while having some DAW skill etc, am now confusing myself regarding plug ins on the ...

Not just Acer. I installed Windows 10 on a Lenovo laptop that previously had had all three power plans showing, only to find just the "Balanced" there. I decided to create my own power plan, but when saving I could see both the "HighPower" and "Battery" plans. However, they're still not showing in ...

Thanks Adrian,
I didn't know that Windows could do disk imaging.

Has any anyone used it successfully ?

Thanks everyone.
Some things to try there.

I agree about Acronis.
It was a great program, but they just wouldn't leave it alone.
It has worse with every version, bringing more bugs.

I don't know why MS don't just include a imaging tool in Windows, a la Time Machine for Macs ?

Hi All Having recently got my system in order again for the umpteenth time. This time I'm satisfied, so now want to back it up. I have been using an older version of Acronis 2020, but i think I'd like to try another disk imaging backup program too. Belts and braces etc. ;) Rather than the cloud, I ...

I know Wonks.

Just trying to get the best out of my stuff
I'll stop clogging up the OP's thread now.

Thanks all
