Nectar 3. Done. 😉

From newsletter: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Finally, a new update! The focus for this one was on bug fixes and underhood improvements. I am personally most excited about adding support for native Apple Metal and OpenGL rendering. This will finally solve the problems with GUI speed on macOS! One feature that was requested a lot was to prevent graph reset when presets change. This was added and it will work with most presets, but some will require a reset, however, you will be notified if that happens. Adobe has reached to help me with some crashes in Audition and Premiere Pro, so that is now solved. Also, many other compatibility issues with various DAWs were solved too. I have added support for direct file drag and drop analysis. Translated to English, drag and drop won't increase ram usage while analyzing which will improve stability when analyzing big files. Also, drag and drop now has time remaining estimate which will be super useful when analyzing long audio files. I really want to thank all beta testers! This update required a lot of testing and it couldn't be done without our beta testers! If everything goes well with this update, the next thing will be a new plugin! Can't wait for you to try it out! Changelog: Fixed VST plugin not showing inside EDIUS Fixed VST3 constantly resetting in Adobe Audition Fixed AU plugin not working on some older macOS versions Fixed crash that can occur if loading saved project and using timecode with the auto-reset off Fixed loudness target knob using frac position when manually setting Fixed CPU spike when resetting the graphs Fixed audio dropouts when using higher sample rates Fixed FCPX muting channels when rendering and using 5.1 channel configuration Fixed slow analysis with lower sample rates Fixed mono mpg files do not work with drag and drop on Windows Fixed drag and drop not working with mono or multichannel AIFF files on macOS Fixed true peak max value sometimes not shown in the excel export Fixed true peak not correct on mouseover when the relative scale is used Fixed export creating incomplete graphs for PDF and SVG files Fixed SmartScreen warning on Windows Fixed crash with VST2 and DAVID MultiTrack Editor Fixed crash in Cakewalk Fixed crash with VST2 and Wavelab Fixed crash with Adobe Audition Fixed crash with Adobe Premiere Pro Fixed crash with Soundforge Pro 12 Fixed crash when analyzing huge files on Windows Fixed audio glitches when using VST2 inside Adobe Premiere Pro Fixed big ram usage when analyzing big files Improved VST2 stability in some daws Improved VST3 stability in some daws Rewritten GUI engine. Hardware acceleration is now supported If hardware acceleration is not supported, software rendering will be used Added hold CTRL to set the default preset in the drop-down menu Added option to show both integrated relative and dialog gated readout at the same time Added Analyze File menu item on the standalone application Added HBO, Disney+, EBU R128 S2, and EBU R128 S2 Music streaming presets Added remaining time info for drag and drop Added support for RF64 WAV encoding for analyzing 4gb+ files Removed message box information when exporting graphs Removed support for macOS 10.7 Analyze multi mono files as one file by using .L.wav, .R.wav, etc. extensions with drag and drop Changing the preset won’t reset the measurements unless required Collapsed groups inside drop-down menus are now saved globally Changed color of the focus rectangle in order to make the text more readable The export custom path will be globally retained Other small UI, UX improvements Download: https://youlean.co/download-youlean-loudness-meter

Voxengo SPAN version 3.10 update is now available for download at https://www.voxengo.com/product/span SPAN is a free real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer plugin for professional music and audio production applications. SPAN is available in AudioUnit, AAX, VST, and VST3 plugin formats, for macOS and Windows computers. The list of changes in version 3.10: Internal channel letters were changed to numbers. Level meters can now display input channel names instead of internal channel indices. Added "Stereo Swap" and "Stereo To Mono" routing presets. Added AudioComponents interface to AudioUnit as the ".rsrc" interface may be deprecated in the future. SPAN provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences. You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum's visual slope. Beside that you can choose to display secondary spectrum of a desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum). Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination.

from email announcement: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dear Customer, We are happy to announce the release of Blue Cat's Axiom 1.5. This new version comes with many improvements and fixes, such as fx tail spillover support and completely revamped factory presets (full change list below). This is a free update that you can download from the same location as the original full version (you may have to refresh the web page): Download Blue Cat's Axiom 1.5 What's New: New Features & Improvements: Tail spillover: activate tail spillover from the toolbar to play effects tail when bypassed (available for Axiom itself or built-in delays and reverbs such as Late Replies). Also applies to sub sections (channel A/B, Pre or Post FX etc.). Revamped Guitar & Bass Factory presets: - New hi hain presets using custom impulse responses (IR). - New responsive clean and crunch presets. - Reduced loudness and spectral balance discrepencies between presets. - Adjusted effects levels to preserve loudness when bypassed. - Adjusted reverb levels on all presets. - Most presets now support input overload gracefully (like "real world" amps): feel free to push the input gain by a few dBs! - New default preset to get started quickly with the software. Arrow keys can now be used to navigate presets, in the main view or in the presets browser. The opacity of the tone map window can now be adjusted for amp simulation and built-in effects. Smoother presets switching. Improved smooth plug-in bypass (faster and smoother transition). Fixes: Fixed: built-in Late Replies sometimes cut delay tail when using plug-ins in the feedback loops. Fixed: output was mono when both A and B are off and I/O configuration is mono to stereo. Fixed: the state of some VST2 plug-ins (which do not save their state as chunks) were not be restored properly if their number of parameters had been changed (e.g. FabFilter Pro-Q's latest update). Mac: fixed GUI performance issues on native P3 displays and improved performance on other displays. Mac: fixed mouse wheel that required large movements to change parameter values. Mac: fixed mouse cursor flickering issues. Mac: fixed Esc key not closing fine edit parameter dialog. Mac Audio Unit: fixed plug-in listing in some host applications (Plogue Bidule...). Enjoy!

This ^^^ was my experience as well and really liked what it does to any instruments/tracks. Thanks for the recommendation.

@aidan o driscoll here's an example of the view of Noire within Komplete Kontrol. Notice all of the tabbed controls along the top and easier to access than in Kontakt.

I believe that once you have the code you can register it whenever you like. Personnaly, I have seen these promotion go wrong and sometimes the same code sent to two different people. So I don't take chances anymore and jump on the free stuff as fast as frog's tongue lapping a fly!

That puts both my favorite go-to delay and the new Irid regenerative reverb at 36.75EU / $43USD each. https://www.tritik.com/

I was asking in reference to the price it is available at ($9.99) currently. And also the fact that I am no sound engineer so using other plugins might be a bit of learning curve for me. But since it was mentioned, which of Waves Plugins would do a similar/better job? I'll check if I own any already. Edit: There's still about an hour to go before the $20 code expires. Hope I can decide before that. Else I will probably buy the Green Screamer and the Blue Chorus.

Well said. Preset pusher here.

What attracts me, I had training as a musician but zero training in recording production and engineering. I don't know much about any of that (I learned about mics and mic placement from sound and recording pros that worked for bands I was in or recording studio engineers and any other knowledge comes from books and YouTube), consequently, what attracts me about Izotope's products is that they're largely aimed at musicians who aren't trained recording engineers. I've bought a bunch of VST effects but honestly, I don't know what the heck I'm doing. I have yet to buy my next DAW PC or Neoverb but it seems like, on paper, it's a great fit for me. Is anyone else here in a similar boat? I'm surprised no one has mentioned that, because that's the number one thing that got my attention. I recently bought R4 for $29, because it seemed like a great deal. But I wonder if Neoverb is more of a wise choice for me. I'd love to get some insights from anyone who owns and is using Neoverb.

I’m standing by the uncle, for better or worse. He was always helpful so I guess I’ll hang in there a bit longer.

But is sooooooo fugly.

This Edge info was not intended to just be a warning about a particular browser. It was just selected as an example to illustrate how hackers can exploit your system by using a specially crafted web page. There have been other exploits that are possible if you are even just using Windows, regardless of the browser. There have been a series of vulnerabilities deep in the Windows kernel, and the Windows graphics sub-system that can be used to remotely attack and compromise a user's system. It's more common to be tricked into opening a file or running a program, but the web itself can be risky when surfing with Windows. The best defense is to keep up to date with patches, because once the vulnerabilities get published they end up in exploit scripts being sold on the dark web that anybody with bad intentions can use. Be careful out there!

This thread's taken the right turn!

So is this film

This speaks volumes!

No it won't. You have subscribed to the wrong site. On the other hand, subscribing to BPB site is a very good thing! 🙂

A man rushed into the doctor's office and shouted, "Doctor! I think I'm shrinking!" The doctor calmly responded, "Now, settle down. You'll just have to be a little patient."

Interesting defiantly crying for some vocals, I would say to me here on my Adam's the top end is some what over prominent. It is not un like some of the early CD stuff it sounds digitally bright. Will come back for the version with vocals.

T, thanks for jumping in, and thanks for the kind words, your feedback has always been spot-on and I appreciate it. And as always, you give could advice here. I've had such trouble getting this song mixed that I honestly toyed with the thought of hiring someone to do it even though none of my songs will ever be performed or see any more light of day than they get here. A pause will do me some good. I'll take a leaf from Jesse Screed's tree and move on to the next one!

I liked this one too, add it to the album.

I've had this happen but if I scroll up I see them.

Hey Jesse . . . I really like this one, it speaks to me in a bluesy kind of way . . . too bad about the phlegm ball, sounds like you got it all worked out, lol

I would have to agree. I can get better results with Izotope and Waves stuff. I did try it a few times and never really got what I was looking for so I haven't been back to it lately.

He's been saying it was gonna get fixed for how long now? Nope. Ain't buying that. Just something we can't put our finger on is going on over there. And he's not being candid about it. I understood that. Still not acceptable for me. I'm out. Just way too many options out there.

I'm looking forward to watching this - thanks Robert

Greg , I Really like the feel and tones in this , especially in the beginning sections. I think when you get all the repeating delays in time , it will be much Much better and easier to add vocals. Working with so many instrument notes coming in with delays it's pretty easy to get them out of time with each other and the time line. Soloing a 1/4 "beat" with each individual track will show you the problem spots. Anyway I enjoyed it .. mark

Hi Hidden Symmetry, A nicely explorative light jazzy instrumental which builds evocatively and a video that does not disappoint as well. Thanks for sharing, Good Job! regards paul

Hi ABull, Great idea for a song 'World War Me', ideally highlighting people's self obsession and at the same time super hero complexes in which they think they can change the world - or is that just me 😉 I enjoyed the track very much and liked the backing vocals especially. Thanks for sharing, Good Job! regards paul

Free - 32 patches for Newfangled Audio's Generate and/or Pendulate Edit: fixed link I've decided to share 32 patches that I created for Newfangled Audio's new synths Generate and/or Pendulate. The patches cover a bit of everything (sound FX, Basses, throbbers, gliders, leads, etc). Main restriction is that I ask that you don't distribute the library or post it on other sites - see the EULA in the zip. Have fun, I'm curious as to what you can do with them. Sorry but don't have the time at the moment to throw up audio demos - but feel free to link in your own creations/demos on this thread. If I like it I'll post links to it on my web site. The link for the patches is at the bottom of the page linked above. While it would be nice if you checked the page out - your welcome to just scroll down & grab your copy - and no registration or email address submission is required! Hope that you find it useful. Best regards, ...Steven

I really like this song. It has a very pop and cheery sound with some very poignant lyrics (they match the times). The vocal and BGV's were very good as was that lead guitar that came in toward the end. Nice one indeed!!!

I wanted to do a public shout out to @Noel Borthwickfor some exceptional support. I’ve had sort of an odd problem and Noel had a Zoom session to sort it out - and what he fixed will be appearing in a future release. unbelievable support !!

Don’t forget, if you’ve got all three, you’ll get the Channel for free if you write to PA support.

I've heard there's at least one person in our country who thinks the problem is not enough raking going on.

Thanks Noel. That's good to hear. I hope the need for 6 month auth goes away too?
