Good news bears repeating... ?? ?? ?... I hope there's no delay in it's release...

I've been monitoring waiting for something "report worthy"

Our beloved friend bayoubill passed away April 15th, 2021. He will be missed. These are two of the collabs I did with Bill.

Given how well the official release of BA usually works I can't even imagine how bad an untested version would be.

I feel stupid looking at these deals every hour

I still have this one I figured that if I kept it long enough it might become worth something, but failing that it still looks like a thing that someone clever would have and gives me the perceived aura of someone who knows what he's doing. Either that or the aura of someone who keeps too much old crap for too long. I prefer the first one.

Does it come with an extra i9 processor? For the price it should, and for the CPU usage of most Softube plugins I own, it definitely should.

Making you guyz a video on it asap , stay tuned , if you undertsnad this you'll also understand VSM 3

Yeah the Waves of DAWs.

If I had a $1 for every Sienna update, I’ll be rich by end of year hehe

"PA Announce Gigperformer 4 to be released in June" Actually that's GigPerformer's update announcement. Maybe I missed it but I haven't seen a word from PA about GP4.

Thanks John. Pretty big project to send but I will if needed. Bug appears in both melo 4&5. I've done this many times over the years starting back before Melodyne was involved, so I doubt it's something I'm doing. When I moved (copy/pasted) the track to an empty project and it worked fine.

Does sound really matter on this one, just look at that beautiful thing! (ok if I'm nit picky, I'd argue that the artifical shadow the virtual knobs are casting is too strong - yeah it would look like that on a console, but we shouldn't have to deal with the darkened text in the box)

IMO James Jamerson and Bob Babbit were not simple players and they were the foundation of the Motown sound.

Not me, I'm ever expanding..... ....my plugin arsenal.

\m/

Thanks for sharing Ed. Bill will be missed!

Absolutely!

Yeah, that 2098 is great, only critiqe really is I think the UI should be resizable.

Thanks I looked at your Blog Post. Excellent !

That is a fantastic plugin! Was a game changer for me. A little heavy on the CPU so must be used sparingly (unfortunately), but it's a really great plugin! ?

The amek was a beauty , in fact everything Mr Neve was involved in is solid and brilliant ..... it's really a matter of taste ; having 10 consoles makes no sens , just use what brings from A to B the faster /better /funnier .... enougth to make a choice ..... with everything i own , i go back systematicallly when moving fast on ssl 4000 E ... (not the Pa) installing as i type , stay tune after a first contact will go back here

James a genius , yep you're 100 % Bapu ... the guyz looked nothing fancy ..but a monster !!! By the way i was watching after there heavyocity video : The mute (what i go for usually) are great .... here

Could be an unexpected "feature" of the Beta or the Beta has the same serious bug as 7.2.0 so they withdrew it by updating everyone to 7.2.1. Only the devs know for sure. Not sure who is running the BA Beta. I guess this would be something to ask support@BandLab.com. Beta programs generally have some type of communication with the testers, otherwise; why have a Beta program.

Oh F***!!!! ? There goes my good mood for today... ? Thanks for letting us know Mrs. XX! Bill will definitely be missed! I wonder if Bill is Jamming with Bo and Jan? Good stuff here!!!

That was on Win. Now I'll see if I can fix Mac.

Hah! 5th times is a charm. WTF?

Well it is a long scale and thus it goes really deep.

Sinatra ? now we're talking !! amazing how those recording sounds so much better that todays crap !!

And her is the Chairman of the board himself :

oh dammn you guyz reminded me to test it ....

I’ll be looking at it Simeon. Went through other YTs on it yesterday and was not inclined to like it based on those. At least for my purposes, which is songs (not movie soundtracks).

It isn't even that hard. Just give us more ilok authorizations. I already bought an extra copy of each, but still woudl like to not have to transfer things around as I use more than 2 computers. That said, after getting MeldaTurboReverbLE, not sure I really need the exponential audio ones...and it doesn't have those terrible authorization limitiations.

I got in touch with Jesus from Wavesfactory and they have already made the change. On the settings page there is a mapping option that allows you to choose left or right. Unfortunately I have just discovered that I can't see the colors for key switches in Kontakt. I don't know when this problem started. Anyway I'm not going to be able to figure this out for a while. [NOTE: I figured this out. Did you know that you can turn off the colored keyswitches in Kontakt settings? Why would you want to do that? Well if you want, you can.]

Definitely different, good work.

Wavesfactory has put a ton of thought into this. They've really tried to make it unique and great. I truly don't understand why they didn't let users re-assign the placement of keyswitches. This is a pretty standard feature. Yes, I've played guitar for 50 years and I can strum with my right and play the chords with my left hand. I imagine it would be very hard to strum with my left and chord with my right. And if somebody created a guitar that I had to play like that I wouldn't buy it. Life is too short. ? So why create a virtual instrument and make it all topsy-turvy like that? Seriously I would like to see somebody from Wavesfactory play this freaking thing. And if any of you think I'm wrong, make a video of you being a guitar hero with this. You must be real keyboard aces, leaving even Simeon in the dust. I've sent a note to Wavesfactory to see what they say about adding a feature where you can move the key switches in a future update. ? Certainly, I could re-map the keyswitches right within Cubase. And I could create a template within Komplete Kontrol so everything would be easy to see. But you know... it's kind of their job to make their instruments playable out of the box--so I can buy them. ? I am ready to buy this today. If only it was a crap product then I wouldn't be upset. But it really looks great.

Simeon - I'm looking forward to your tour through. I have the other Mosaic libraries and they are great. I listened to a couple of the Heavyocity YouTube clips on this new Pluck library and so far I'm very hesitant to consider this one. When I think plucks, I think pop music, or EDM dance music. The clips I've seen from Heavyocity so far seem to emphasize using this library for slow, creepy horror movie background music.

The AAS installer will place copies of the VST plugins into the following directories no matter what you ask it to use. One of them could be the source of any doubles you have (only the last one is my actual, real VST2 install dir): C:\Program Files (x86)\Applied Acoustics Systems\VST Plug-ins C:\Program Files (x86)\Cakewalk\VstPlugins C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Digidesign\DAE\Plug-ins C:\Program Files (x86)\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\VstPlugins C:\Program Files\Applied Acoustics Systems\VST Plug-ins C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST2 I think all the registry stuff is in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Applied Acoustics Systems
