Team, fall back!

What??? First I've heard of it.

Abso-freak-a-lutely sweet, free Analog Lab V in da house.

Same for me.. Arturia's site is s......l......o......w.... but it looks like a free update to Analog Lab V in my account. It also looks very nice..first post updated

I can't be out of money! I still have checks!

I have to admit that I rarely used the individual instruments and found Analog Lab a better option while still offering all the presets from every instrument. So I held onto Analog Lab and Pigments and sold VC 6 on KVR in the summer. I haven't missed it once. I put the money towards new individual super synths (Dune 3, Rapid, VPS Avenger, Diva, Omnisphere etc) Oh and I also did the same as Aidan for some old Analog flavours with the Cherry Audio offerings (which I really like along with their VM stuff).

Free Overdrive! AU / VST3 (AAX coming soon). https://www.schrammel.io/index.html

Santa is coming 10 days early for some of you

Fixed that for you. ?

Run SC to update!

well we don't know that yet - if you judge the quality of a plugin solely by the number of presets, and assuming that those numbers are accurate, then yes...it's not an upgrade. ....it might even ben a 'considerable downgrade' . I suspect that isn't the full story. Have you taken a look at the videos and previews ? If I could ever get this stuff licenced then I could find out Incidentally I find AL to be the least useful of the collection .....just my opinion but I never really bother with it much. Prefer the actual emulations. EDIT abacab replied as I was typing and said the exact opposite about AL....just shows you there are as many opinons as there are people

Per the AmpliTube 5 news, if you purchase AmpliTube 4 or it is included with hardware. Total Studio 2 MAX does not unlock free AmpliTube 5 SE.

For anyone wanting to get Analog Lab V, here's a direct download link. It's 1.5Gb (AL4 was 1.1Gb in comparison) and took longer than usual due to the traffic load on their website but still better than trying to navigate slowly to the d/l page. https://downloads.arturia.net/products/analoglab-v/soft/Analog_Lab_V__5_0_0_1195.exe

Lol, yes sirrreee! Very nice Christmas present from Arturia ? ??

FIXED! Installed a FebSmart USB 3.0 card with Renasus drivers dating to May 2020 and all is well now. Thanks to everyone who offered support ideas while I was challenged with this odd behavior. Happy Holidays to all and Stay Safe ! Roger

I love my Analog Lab 4 (like others here, I also have Pigments but no real need for the collection). Is there a likely (free?) update coming to Analog Lab, with the presets of the added gear?

I also have the ob-xa v, which isn't in V7 (and pigments - and the FX etc) (edit - tony beat me to it !)

Yeah... 149 euros for me. I have V7 and the OBX a too. I don’t have it installed on my new PC. I’m trying to make use of all I currently have as is.. going to pass unless it drops to a much lower price in the future.

Yip and TBH i am getting a bit weiry of the Arturia stuff and the load speeds of same and the resources it eats. I am now spoilt by the Cherry Audio standalone synths recently, thats how the Arturia stuff should be?

Analog lab V is now available in V Coll 7 plus a load of updates

Too much phrases on my mind

I finally managed to download the demo! Have to say it sounds excellent and is great fun to play ? Tons of factory patches and every one I have tried sounds well put together with a good combination of High and Low string patterns. I still have a lot left to audition. The .blob file is around 4.2Gb so not huge. I guess it wouldn't satisfy perfectionists or anyone with picky clients (TV, Film etc) but I will certainly put it on my list to pick up when it's in a sale. Anyone else having problems downloading try this link (which support gave me)... https://support.ujam.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012413020-Download-links-for-every-ujam-plug-in-free-trial-full-version- (Useful link to have as it has download links for all of their product demos.)

Yup! everyplugin

I've created a project temple of sorts. I initially set-up and mixed one song in the " album " project - completely. I then saved off a copy of this project and called it " buncha empty tracks ". I then erased all track and automation data and re-saved. For new subsequent projects related to the " album " I simply open the " buncha empty tracks " project and import my new track data. Then immediately save as to the new project name and include the save to audio project folders. I will add or delete a few tracks here and there related to the exact instruments or vocal tracks etc. But generally all of my track effects - Buss effects - folders - Track labels and general order and locations of the tracks and busses are the same, including ( basic pro channel eq's , comps - etc. ) So starting out a new project is basically import the tracks and go. The tracks are already labeled correctly so I simply import the kick to the kick track , have gates already assigned etc. - I treat it essentially the same as saving track templates and folders - without all of the re-assembly required. Another process I do is to create a buss with no effects assigned except maybe an analyzer such as SPAN and keep that handy for playback of any reference mixes or a clean mix buss that isn't processed through the master buss.

I contacted PGMusic and they confirmed me that it’s a trusted reseller. So I will buy from them and save.

Just tried the ProChannel version of all the Softube plugins and it still crashes when added to a track. They updated everything I had (all of Volume 4) but no fixes for the broken ProChannel support. Here's the change log for 2.5.9:

You gave yourself a footjob?!!

And if you're already an owner, it's in your account. Thanks for the heads up!

Is Sonar Platinum lifetime included?

EZDrummer similar to others makes $$ from you buying their midi loops. Like you say, a money pit. If you know how to match midi grooves up to drum software decent midi grooves can be had in much larger quantities and for much less elsewhere. It's basically just changing the mapping. Not sure if EZDrummer is general midi spec. I doubt it because that would be counter productive to their marketing. I bought a whole slew of drum midi a few years ago for much less. You would search this as drum midi. Mapping is usually straight forward. Load midi. Low noted are bass drum, high notes are cymbals. Those in between are either percussion, toms or snare. If you want to avoid mapping just use the paks. If you want to save money buy drum midi from 3rd party and map it. I still have trouble finding beats that match my songs and sometimes find myself playing lame beats in. I'm not really a rocker but was experimenting with the new basic kits. It's a religious Christian Rock tune. I'm not pushing that here, just showing you how the drums sound . I was pretty happy with the drums. Still some work to do on vox and guitars.

So... First i love choirs Second... One way to get choirs sounding tight is to enter the midi for all the parts... Then, make a mix for each part and boost the volume of that part maybe 7 db louder than the other parts... Really significant increase... Now share the recordings with your choir and let them practice to it. This isn't a click track but it will have the same result. They will all be on time and singing with, or harmonizing with, the part they are supposed to be singing. This is tons of fun. It's like standing right next to a really loud singer who is perfect every time... You just do as they do. Now, when you pull the tracks together, you have a great starting place. Everyone is in key and on time. From there, you boost the vocalists that are tighter at any moment, trying to give them all moments to shine. You don't want to pitch correct more than necessary. It can help to have vocalists slightly off and slightly dimmed. It will make the singer nailing it Sound better. As long as the one who is tight is louder, it will be cool. The mix will sound like someone was pointing the Mic from singer to singer, a different Mic for basses and sopranos and altos etc. It will be magic that the Mics focus on the best singer at each moment. In this video, i show how to use melodyne to compare two instruments playing the same part... You can also accept multiple takes from each vocalist. Use panning and gain control to make your virtual choir super big and way cool. Panning different parts differently also helps. Don't be scared to move your parts around on the Sound stage, centering the most important part of the moment in ways that are impractical in a church. The centered part can be a little louder than things panned to the sides because it is coming through two speakers, not one. In lots of choirs I've worked with, they often change the score to simplify it because it is hard to do it right live. They cater to the weakest link often. But with this technique, everyone can sing it right with some practice.

a simulation of the KORG Poly-800 for Windows and Mac. Some new features: Poly-800 MODE for Poly-800 compatibility, Bucket MODE for backwards compatibility, SysEx data import. For those who visit the dev's site for the first time: you will find there a lot of good free synth and effect plugins. https://www.fullbucket.de/music/fury800.html

Not bad. Not bad at all.

Fleer, You are going to love using the Aphex Exciter especially for brightening vocals and instruments.

Yaaaaaaaaaay!

Apparently, I was only selecting the instrument (audio) tracks. Selecting both gave me a valid bounce. Thanks, Nigel. I was ready to tear my hair out... ?

Another of my favorite drummers is Ginger Baker White Room - Cream

Solitary Man - Neil Diamond

I would like nothing #2. it looks better than the other 2 nothings.

It's a good song and I enjoyed the listen. I thought the mix was excellent - sounded quite good through my headphones - plenty of depth and separation of all the instruments. The drums were just right. Nice job on the lead vocal as well - there's a bit of soul in the performance - well done.

I listened thru headphones. I don't always trust my aging ears to make comments but anyway... Overall a very good production with an engaging melody. The strong lead voc is impressive but the lyrics seemed to get drowned out in places eg ~1:15 (however that could just be me.) -Bjorn

The Wanderer - Dion DiMucci
