Depending on the audio interface, since USB 3 onwards it can deliver more current than USB 2 (up to 3A in the case of USB 3.2), so you might well be able to use an unpowered hub. I have a four way hub that I use on both my M3 Macbook Pro and M1 Macbook Air; currently running a Behringer UMC404, a Pr...

A couple of weeks late to this but I recently bought one of the new NI Control keyboards. After installing the NI driver, Studio One finds it automatically and it is all set up, knobs and transport controls. No pads, but I have an Atom to cover that.

Called it

Reviving a two year old thread with an answer to a different question. Hmmm

I for one am glad they're gone. I'm really bad at coming up with anything, to the point that I just wouldn't bother entering.

In Studio One you would need to configure two External Devices (there's a link to that in the Setup box on the start page). In the External Devices page, click the Add button and select New Keyboard. Give it a name and select the relevant MIDI input. Do that for both keyboards and you're good to go....

What are the softsynths that sound as sweet as kraftwerk then? What are the hardware synths that sound as sweet as Genesis then? Neither question makes any sense. If you like the sound of that music that's about the users - not the tools. I'm wondering if that's the same Kraftwerk who have used sof...

Just watched this YouTube video and passed the survey/exam with flying colours, so I'm sharing it for others to have a bit of fun and discover their own answer. https://youtu.be/_jtPdpWgu0w The only one that gave me pause was the penultimate one, it clearly didn't resolve as neatly as 13 but I didn...

(Speaking from a point of view of never having used this plug-in, but having seen this type of mono/stereo confusion - especially in Cubase - many times...) Are you placing the plug-in as an insert on a mono track? If so (and if it's a similar situation to the one I've seen a hundred times in Cubas...

Doesn't look like they did very in-depth research, I can think of several software and hardware synths not mentioned that have variance in their voices from note to note. Still, if the end music is lacklustre and uninteresting, the problem is much more likely to be with the composer/producer than th...

For me, I've been practising more scales recently so I get more familiar with the muscle memory and I don't have to look, mainly because the angle my neck is at when looking at the fretboard severely aggravates my arthritis; the choice has been made for me

Sad to hear of his passing, a name indelibly linked to SOS for me.

You are in a twisty maze of tunnels, all alike.

He's a sick puppy. Well, bunny.

Here's an interesting take on the phenomenon of YouTubers holding mics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0arvnAlV_C4 (note that although he's doing it in this video, it's only done for effect here)

Actually there are 16 instruments listed and 16 tracks.

You're going to have to take off your other sock to continue counting, Wonks.

As promised here are the synths used, now you just need to match them to the piece!

And as a further teaser, at least one of the hardware synths is very far from being a current model.

I can tell you there are no duplicates

I, too, have no idea who is who is who is what.

Just an extremely cropped pic of one of the Human League's keyboard players in 2022

Interesting to dip in - there have been many wrong guesses but a small number of correct ones.

I think I shall name what synths have been used on Wednesday, but not tell you what pieces they relate too, and then as I said before, I'll do the full reveal on Friday.

I shall reveal which tracks were contributed by who early Tuesday evening and then you can have until Friday to guess the synths. I shall attempt to reveal that around 6pm, although my internal alarm clock will probably get it wrong!

Litreally just correted that in the last 10 seconds!

Here it is, enjoy!

Marmalade lovers beware.

We are up to 16 submissions. Stragglers you have two hours left, the clock is ticking...

Yeah, if I don't receive it in time I shall come round and fall through your ceiling.

You never know what I might do if you get on my wrong side

As long as I don't drop through any more ceilings, I shall be compiling the pieces on Sunday evening, and hopefully getting it published before 10pm, and then we can have a couple of days guessing the synths and the creators.
