  6. I don't actually know everything about their product line. It's much easier to just front like I do.😂 Really, outside of the FreeFX bundle and MEssentialsFX bundle (but together that's what, almost 50 plug-ins?), the rest of the stuff in my MComplete bundle is pretty dusty. They hold my interest because I think Vojtech is a really smart guy and I like the way he runs his business. It's fun to see what he comes up with. I do remember hearing something about the MB trick at one point. Thanks for reminding me. Have you tried it? Is it fairly straightforward? It sounded kinda over my head. I've tried messing about with the MB versions of MeldaProduction stuff and didn't click with it. Maybe I'll try it some time when I want to mess with some M/S flanging or something. I bet Chandler could come up with a tutorial for it. So far it's come down to whether I want to spend a couple hours trying to get MDynamicsMB to do independent mid/side processing or just throw on Cyclone or one of the T-RackS dynamics or EQ FX that's already built that way. The way that IK Multimedia do it is elegant and simple. MLimiterX is my go-to master bus limiter and I always try flipping it over to M/S just to see if I like the sound better that way. I usually end up leaving it in M/S mode. Any thread that I participate in seems to have a decent chance of going down the MeldaProduction garden path at some point....
  7. I have it because Music Production Studio and never fired it up until seeing all these endorsements by people whose opinions I trust. It seems to provide much in the way of analysis, but it also induces much in the way of latency, 49mS to be exact. It also spikes up to about 9% "audio processing" in Sonar, not sure exactly what that means but it has something to do with the load it puts on Sonar's audio engine, and compared to other plug-ins it's high. For a metering plug-in it's nuts, even for iZotope. I took a brief sweep through my plug-in collection to see if I could find something NOT made by iZotope (and not a linear phase EQ) that read more than 9% and the only ones so far that did were Unfiltered Audio BYOME with 7 of its modules active, sonible proximityEQ+, and Motion Fractal. Which doesn't seem unreasonable given how much number crunching those are doing. Freakshow Industries Dumpster Fire had about the same impact (if you've never tried Dumpster Fire on a full mix, where is your sense of adventure?). After seeing this, I compared it to APU Spectrum Analyzer, MStereoScope, MLoudnessAnalyzer, MTM LEVELS, Voxengo SPAN, HoRNet StereoView and LUMeter, TBProAudio dpMeter5, and T-RackS 6 Metering. To get an idea of what to expect from an analysis plug-in. Only APU Spectrum Analyzer induced any latency at all at 30mS. That sucker's going right into the dustbin. SPAN uses FFT too and doesn't have to induce a slap delay to do it. LEVELS (max 3.5%), Metering (max 2%), LUMeter (max 2.5%), MLoudnessAnalyzer (max 4%), APU Spectrum Analyzer (max 2%), and dpMeter 5 (max 3%) were the biggest engine "hogs," with SPAN, StereoView, MAnalyzer, MMultiAnalyzer, and MStereoScope never making it to 1%. (WTF is MLoudnessAnalyzer's problem?) LEVELS measures stereo field and loudness/peak/dynamic range and has a "bass space" feature that checks for overlaps down in the boomies. TR6 Metering has VU meters, loudness meter, phase scope, spectrogram, and spectrum analyzer all running at once. MMultiAnalyzer has spectrum analyzer, sonogram, collision checking, loudness, stereo, and an oscilloscope. Both LUMeter and MMultiAnalyzer support grouping via inter-plug-in communication. If Insight 2 needs 49mS of latency to do some metering, I better wake up to it cooking breakfast wearing nothing but one of my shirts.
  8. I wonder a bit that you as Melda freak don't know this: All ...MB plugins of Melda can be used mid-side with different settings in one plugin. Just set the band "crossfade " configuration to mid-side and the "link" flag off. Now you can configure mid, side and everything in between with different settings (so even more than just mid side). Sorry, to grab this thread for something not IK!
  9. Really good plugin, I have it too and yesterday tested with lead im my trance 😁. I don't have a lot of plugins from soundtoys but I know them a lot of years ago. I hope this plugin will be available for download for two days. Regards, Peter
  10. A long time in the making! Glad to see it finally reach this milestone 🙂

  12. Do you outboard MIDI gear, use MIDI notes for your Metronome and you have no audio tracks present in your project? If all of the above is true, then the audio engine should even need to run. That is how I edit MIDI files in Sonar and the audio engine is not running. Unless you are using VST synths.
  13. Cheers Peter. I'll take ur word for that. In my defense, I did try to sort out the exact time. That's what I get for trusting Google. But nonetheless, to whoever's interested, I DEFINITELY wouldn't procrastinate on downloading this plugin for free. This thing sounds killer. Rock On!
  14. @jkoseattleDo you ever use CAL scripts that modify MIDI events?

    Wow! 14 Already. Yeah I like the whistle lead and also the bassline. You have certainly mastered the arpeggiator tool. Though I think a beefed up drum kit would have added some more body to it. Seemed a bit dry and thin. Interesting nonetheless. I think I left off at #9. Will have to dig up 10-13 and have a listen. Stay well!
  16. Its should be for two days. One plugin is ready to download for two days.
  17. Way back in 2009, when I didn't even know what VST meant, and much less how to use it, I tried to pull this cover off as best as I could with my new purchase of sonar by cakewalk. While my heart was 100% in it and my guitar skills were reasonably capable of pulling it off, I didn't really have a good grasp of all the bells and whistles inside of my new DAW and never recorded anything in my life. Moreover, I never fooled around with much piano, drums, bass, synth, etc. Simply stated, I was very limited in a lot of areas that would be necessary to pull this off. Nevertheless, I was able to get something that sounded good enough for me at the time and I posted it on Youtube. To my great surprise I got 50,000 views, which lasted about a week before Youtube took it down and scolded me. Fast forward. I have been revisiting a lot of my older recordings with much better skills in hand, and 1 by 1 doing my best to improve them with some new tools. This be one of them. "Coming Back to Life" is a song by Pink Floyd from their 1994 album The Division Bell, and it is the only track on the album credited solely to David Gilmour. Gilmour has stated that the song was written about his wife, Polly Samson, reflecting on their relationship and the emotional support she provided during difficult times. The lyrics explore themes of isolation, betrayal, healing, and personal transformation, with David reflecting on a period of emotional pain and withdrawal while contemplating a new beginning. A list of some of the things I fixed and used: Vocals - Shure SM57, VX 64 vocals by Cakewalk, Aurora by Isotope, Cascadia by Isotope. Drums-ADrums 1 70's kit Bass - Native Instruments Rickenbacker Organ- Native Instruments Hammond organ Processing - Digitech 2101 signal processor, TH3, Guitar Rig7, Neutron 5, Ozone 11. That about "covers" it. Thanks for listening ahead of time. https://www.bandlab.com/track/d34776d4-3dd6-f011-819b-6045bd3096b1?revId=d24776d4-3dd6-f011-819b-6045bd3096b1
  18. Just a reminder that the Echoboy Jr from Soundtoys is FREE (normally $29 I believe) until Dec 10th at 11:59 p.m . E.S.T USA I just downloaded it and played my guitar through it for 20 minutes and I think it sounds amazing. It's a fat and milky delay. I see why the pros love the EchoBoy. But the EchoBoy Jr is more user friendly and it's cpu light comparatively. Anyway, here's the link, So if you want it, you need to download it today!!! https://www.soundtoys.com/12-days-of-soundtoys/ Note: in order to use the EchoBoy Jr, you will have to sign in to ur iLok account. Cheers!
  19. I wouldn't worry about it. EW does not consider it a legacy product. Funny I was almost tempted to buy not a SSD but a 6TB WD Black. I thought I could move some of the hoard off a SSD on to it and move it back when needed. I've removed over 200GB of Kontakt libraries which were free ones. I have not download all of Komplete U either.
  20. Wasn't Ripple Edit, and couldn't find anything called non-destructive editing, but no matter, the problem disappeared on its own. Fun. Thanks for everyone's help!
  21. I was just travelling with my laptop and just like you I found it a bit annoying that Sonar wouldn’t always switch to my headphones when I plugged them in. Everything else did. Audacity. Media Player etc. But all I needed to do was change the output in the Master bus. @57Gregy I own 6 audio interfaces but in the case of using a laptop I rarely use them. There’s nothing wrong with using on board audio if you’re not recording audio tracks. Just listening using good headphones is more or less going to be the same thing plugged into a computer or an interface. With WASAPI exclusive there’s isn’t any noticeable playback latency.
  22. Super laid back listen, very much enjoyed ! . . . the flute is cool, but I especially like the feel of the jazz guitar in the middle section. Some really great instrument playing here, as I have come to expect from your music offerings here on the forum.
  23. Completely agreed on age. My only concern with older stuff like that is support and ongoing compatibility. I still love some of my older plugins and instruments and will continue to use them for as long as I can. And yeah some of the space requirements for some of the orchestral libraries is pretty insane (BBC Pro, HOOPUS, etc). It would've been OK if SSD prices had kept going down and sizes going up, but that transition seems very slow more recently, so it is a very valid consideration.

    Cool sounding track, really like this one ! Very original sound you have here, can't compare to anything I know, you have exceptional control of your "noise making toys".
