Voltage Modular 2.0 will be packed full of innovative new features. Here's a little teaser for you. Voltage Modular 2.0 Teaser

I'll probably still feel like a dummy trying to figure it out. ?

Skipped that thread cause of the title - but read this one cause of the title Well worth posting, I think.

So watching the videos it looks like they have set it up so that if you load a project made with the Pro or Core BBCSO and only have Discover it will still work. You'll see the "Pro/Core" articulation and it will actually play back. But substitute with the closest match for the version of BBCSO you have. Which explains why I could see the articulations in Discover mode and they actually worked. Which means the stripped down template may actually be better since it will put the drum parts on their own tracks, even for Discover users. Which is maybe easier to use than having to remember/look up/find by hunting which key is which of the drum articulations. Of course this also means you could just use the Pro template as is. Everything will work, it just won't sound the same. Definitely an interesting feature. Should make it nice for students and teachers. I still think the pricing is a bit crazy on this, even the sale price feels off to me. If the sale prices they have now were the normal prices and they had sale pricing on top of that I'd say it was about right. It will be interesting to see if they put it on sale more in the future.

Hi nice people of the forum Yesterday I finished this video. It is my wife's choir here in Wales, UK singing We'll Meet Again - a tribute on VE day's 75th Anniversary (WW2 Victory in Europe). I had to fix the audio from 23 videos taken on mobile phones (UK is under strict lockdown), then manually align them to the backing track they were singing to, then create a video from all of it. It was posted last night and has 9,000 views on Facebook so far. I hope you enjoy. https://vimeo.com/415956582

Here's an interesting video on the MODO DRUM v1.1.0 update.

Also $99 for me. There went the last $100 of my "it ain't stimulatin' me" check. The other $1100 went for a 65" 4K Sony TV!

Who runs the 9900k at 4.9GHz??? ? It'll run all 8 cores locked at 5GHz... with air-cooling... and do so nearly dead-silent. The 3950x (4.7 max turbo) doesn't out-perform the 9900k when working at ultra low latency settings. Using a Presonus Quantum, fire up an instance of Helix Native (patch using dual 2048-sample Cab IRs) running at 96k using a 32-sample ASIO buffer size. That's running Helix Native at ~2ms total round-trip latency. With the 3950x... pops/ticks With the 9900k... audio is glitch-free BTW, The 3700x is ~$90 less than the 9900k. Active-Cooled chipsets Small incompatibilities with AMD (not really AMD's fault) Flaky motherboards (requiring BIOS resets) Some motherboards have no option to disable onboard audio, WiFi, etc To save $90? Not for me or our clients. As I've mentioned 1001 times, Threadripper and Ryzen shine in heavily multi-threaded scenarios (video rendering and at larger buffer sizes). That's when they'll smoke the Intel i9s. In ultra low latency scenarios, Intel bests AMD (clock-speed is the single most important factor). AMD is winning IPC (instructions per clock). Intel is winning at all-core clock-speed. If AMD can get Threadripper's TDP down (currently 280w), that'll allow higher clock-speed. 280w TDP is why AMD can't get Threadripper's all-core clock-speed higher than ~4GHz. Even with 105w TDP, the 3950x can't get all-core clock-speed much more than about 4GHz. If you're used to a super quiet machine, you're not going to like a 3970x build. There's just too much heat to keep it quiet.

Love IK stuff but with Superior 3, EZ2 and BFD3, I think I’m set . Part of my new Covid buy only that which I reasonably need approach?

Thanks Larry. It automatically adds the MODO50 promo code for me (presumably because I own MODO Bass) at the checkout to reduce it by 50 EUR. Works out at 99.99 EUR if you don't pay VAT or 119.99 EUR if you do. Still on the fence.

Track icons on the console would be nice too...

Selecting a range by right-clicking a meter overrides the default you have set in Options. Reselecting that default (or a new one) should reset any meters that have had the default overriden. Working here.

I have the Behringer Neutron synth. This is an amazing synth for the money. Very flexible and sounds great. Don't listen to the people that say $200 buys you crap. I was looking at all the different Behringer synths that are copies of synths like the MiniMoog but I liked the Neutron because it has flexibility the other ones don't have. The patchbay does allow you to hook up other Eurorack modules which Behringer will be releasing at very reasonable costs. I've owned quite a few synths in the past including Moogs, Prophet V, etc and have been working with synths since about 1974. So the Neutron is not my 1st synth! I think this is an excellent synth to get into world of analog synthesis. Jim

So I stripped my template down to the Discover instruments but I'm not so sure it's going to work right for people without the full BBCSO. In my template I have all the percussion instruments as separate tracks. This is because in Pro BBCSO they have actual articulations also. In Discover though there is only the Untuned percussion choice (which has each percussion instrument on a single note). But when I open the say track Snare 1, it is in Discover mode but it shows the Snare 1 articulation (a view I can't get normally from Discover mode). So I don't think that will work if you don't have the Pro BBCSO. The answer would be to remove all those percussion tracks and just leave the one Untuned one I guess. But someone with the cut down version will need to tell me what happens when you open up Snare 1. If you see this: You can download the Cakewalk template here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=11vrPhsRW2c6jOSNLUxTHY9NwP5Kc1gBu Someone with only Discover will have to tell me if the drum tracks work.

No. Absolutely not. You were a bad person long before that came out.

@Notes_NortonI've emebed them for you.

You should also put this link in the Freeware section.

Remember tools like this do not lock you into their sounds. They can send MIDI directly to your DAW using a virtual MIDI cable such as LoopBe1.

I put this up on VI:Control, but might as well share it here: After ALBION ONE there was ALBION NEO On May 7th ALBION ENO

https://soundcloud.com/bats-brew/memphis-honky-tonk-1 kind of a cruisin' song. this is my 9th demo i've posted, working on a 10-song instrumental album, my first all instrumental. looking for any issues i've missed, 1st impressions, or other. thanks.

Have you seen, or tried the Toolbar add-on that Lawrence made? I haven't tried or used it myself, I am happy with Studio One out of the box, but from what I have read a lot of people seem to like it. YMMV https://forums.presonus.com/viewtopic.php?p=200846&sid=ad78096bfa45be25474af6e25888329e

I've grown accustomed to the studio one interface but wish they would expand the color choices with a wheel or sliders. It should also allow for changing the color used to highlight the current tool/tabs etc. At least for me, not being able to change from that blue color limits the other choices I can make.

Reading my comment.... it sounds kinda harsh. Spitfire made Tundra, one of my favorite libraries. I think they are a great company. One of the libraries I fell for their sales pitch on was an Evo. They really got me excited y the evo idea. But you know, when I got it home it just wasn't for me. You only know that when you really try it out for a while. Video demos can only take you so far. Nothing wrong with the library at all. Just not for me. The other one was Albion ONE, which I picked up on a flash 50% sale around this time last year. GAS. That's on me. Maybe I'll find a use for it someday. Just haven't yet. It probably would have been better to get Albion long ago, before I got all the things I have today. There are definitely some nice things in there that I need to explore. But I wish I never bought it.

Reverse for $9.99, regular price is $49.99. Not sure for how long the discount last. https://www.adsrsounds.com/product/software/initial-audio-reverse/?fbclid=IwAR3-CC9aDrBgJa5HAeI1q5M6V98W7q82IizMp3J0ZFy9rv5MBfvXcRJvgdw

I'm pretty sure it's been around $10 for a year or so on Plugin Boutique. A nice little tool though IMO. I went for it to get one of the monthly freebies. https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/3-Studio-Tools/72-Utility/5046-Reverse

So that’s why Carlos needs to keep hold of VSM-3! Wish I’d bought it after all.

I think the problem will be that a vintage analog synth seems to be something that is desirable for some reason and so the price is high on the used market for anything any good. Years back I had a Korg MP-4 that I bought at a pawn shop for something like $20 because I convinced them it was just broken (actually you just needed to know how to tune it). Sold it a few years later to a collector for $300. Great little Mono synth, the Poly version was incredibly crappy sounding.

Grrr... Zo, you are always doing this ? Giving some a rumor but no even small details what is making people so curious... Anyway PA could learn from Melda for sure one thing, some sharing libraries for GUIs... If they are fixing something it relates to all their plugins at once... Clever and convenient... In PA plugs there is terrible mess... Some newest amps have switch to turn off included IRs (instead worst idea ever to click over long list), rest not. Some has possibility to resizes, others not Even inside the same brand... I hope you mean something like this.... Resize for all ! Turn off IR switch for all, Advanced features for all plugins of the same type... External side chain for all dynamic plugins And free voucher for all

It is now posted in Freeware Instruments thread.

Yep, that looks utterly disgusting to me. Black or white, it looks horrible either way. That one looks like a cheap cartoon.

Thks waiting for it to be resizable .... some great things coming in that aspect but shhh i said nothing

Nice song ... injects straight to the rock vein. ??‍???? Good performance and sounds.
