To be honest, I like TrackSpacer ‘cause it’s simple. I like simple. I do simple well.

Got Gig Performer 4 for $25. I don't really use it the way it's intended but it was worth it.

I broke down and bought the 2 extra HRK ST552 Tape Emu's for my Warm Audio Bus Comp and a Fatso for my Heritage Audio Successor. My hybrid final mix chain will be: Vocal Bus -> ST552s -> TK Audio Bus Comp Drums Bus (shells only) -> Fatso -> Heritage Audio Successor Bas Buss -> ST552s -> Warm Audio Bus Comp Master Bus -> ST552s -> Serpent Bus Comp I'll be using Studio One's Pipeline XT to handle the hardware integration into the premaster mix.

For being "REAPER" they sure give you a lot instead of taking from you 😆

A holiday thanks for everyone who makes this forum so friendly and valuable. I've been using online music-making forums since the early days of KVR and I find no other music-making forum as friendly, helpful and user-centric as this forum, and specifically, I'm thinking of the Deals subforum. Unsurprisingly, @cclarry is the first person who comes to mind when I think of this subforum. No one else has worked as hard at making this subforum so valuable and stocked with deals as cclarry. I've told him many times that he could stop posting deals and retire as an all-time Cakewalk Forum MVP and Hall of Famer -- the Michael Jordan of the forum. The other MVP and Hall of Famer is @Wookiee, the forum moderator. Like cclarry, Wookiee isn't paid to do what he does, but he does it better than most paid moderators, IMO. Woookie is a volunteer who helps this community out of the goodness of his heart. He keeps the forum on track, and in the rare moments when someone exhibits less than civil behavior or goes into undesirable territory, Wookiee is there to keep this community healthy and he's clearly doing a great job. If you've ever interacted with Wookiee, you know that he's very helpful, kind and considerate. I couldn't think of better qualities for a moderator, a community member -- or for a human being in general. Beyond our MVPs, we have a community -- it's not big, but it's big enough, IMO -- of really nice, helpful and encouraging people that make this forum great. Personally, there's been a good deal of people who've gone out of their way to provide helpful advice when I ask for advice on effects plugins, on sample libraries or post a song and solicit mixing advice. I want to give a big holiday thank you to all of you -- whether you've shared a deal, posted a funny remark or story, shared insights, gave a recommendation for or against a plugin or library, encouraged someone else or taken a thread in a new direction (sure, at some forums that call that "off-topic" or "derailing a thread," but here, it's an honored tradition; we'd say something, but anyone could expose the regulars here as hypocrites in a few clicks!). Whatever you celebrate, Christmas, Hanukkah, etc., I wish you and your family the happiest and healthiest of holidays and all the best in the year ahead.

Happy holidays from Fredrikstad, Norway.

Sounds like you need a new bank..... Is this what you are after? https://www.jrrshop.com/mastering-the-mix-reso

I dunno... $29 vs all the other plugins I spend/spent more money on per plugin to try and accomplish the same thing... $29 for a do-it-all tool vs spending the time to chain together a string of plugins then tuning them... $29 vs spending hours wringing my hands try to decide whether to or not to... If your time is valuable to you the first time you use this it paid for itself.

Newer version 1.4.6 - minor fixes Run Native Access I had to rebuild the database under Files -> options to see all the installed sounds in the browser.

Craig, any pics of next couple rescue attempts ? I see now they gave up after ? trucks and do an annual memorial festival instead (with live band, witness testimonials, drivers hall of shame). There's a bbq, plenty of drinks and you can sing along with Holy Diver, Rescue Me, Roll Over Lay Down etc etc. Local priest blessing new rescue trucks entering service. Sea and port were renamed 'Trucknicker'

bad day at work there in Ireland for both rescue truck drivers. fortunately / ofcourse the pub owner agreed to open immediately.

This holiday season we want to extend our heartfelt appreciation for your continued support for Orange Tree Samples! Thanks to you, we're fortunate to be able to do what we love. As an expression of our gratitude, we've just added a new sample library to the downloads section of your Orange Tree Samples account, where you'll also find the serial number to activate the instrument in Native Access. If you happened to participate in our Group Buy sale last Summer, this instrument was the reward that was unlocked when reaching the highest discount tier. However, we've now licensed the free Kontakt Player for it, so you don't need to own the full version of Kontakt to use it. While we were at it, we also made the instrument NKS Ready for Komplete Kontrol and Maschine users. We hope you enjoy the instrument, and have a wonderful holiday season! https://www.orangetreesamples.com/account/downloads

Happy holidays from the central mountains of Arizona where it is a balmy 62 degrees and sunny! Don’t miss what’s going on for most of the US and hope everyone is safe wherever you are!

Merry Christmas from Finland! 🇫🇮

This could be also a solution https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/JD08--roland-jd-08-boutique-series-jd-800-sound-module Small controll but might be actually fun and if you get the JD 800 plugin (legend version) you can tranfsert back and forth patches and use it to control the software also In fact i was considering this as a regualr ultimate synth controller ...

Or you can just "have the tape rolling," as it were, every time. More than once, I have nailed what would have been a keeper during a practice run so now I hit "record" first just in case.

this piece of music has sub bass and requires a 8" subwoofer to get the full experience.

My final demo track for Pianobook 2022. And the haunting sounds of Eraphine by Venus Theory , in Decent Sampler format are used. In addition from Pianobook : EBow Piano / Choral Harp. From LABS by Spitfire : Arctic Swells / Cello Moods. And Originals - Intimate Strings. I would also like to say a big thank you to all those here who have listened, commented, liked and given me encouragement. I really appreciate it. Thank you. Love this forum.

i don't know about that. i've seen people get professional results from Logic, Ableton, and FL 🙂 so it's definitely the craftsman, not the tools 🙂

Basically the same effect. TrackSpacer is easier to use, MSpectralDynamics is more tweakable and versatile.

It's the same one

Hi folks Merry Christmas! Here's a song that my ape mate @Bapu and I covered a few year's back. Stay well lovely people

Punish Lite I think is pretty good. I would have assumed it was heavy handed distortion due to the name and UI, but it can do subtle bus grade saturation duties and for free I'd absolutely recommend it to people that don't want to pay for one of the top transparent saturators on the market.

Merry Christmas from Winnetka*, California, USA, Earth, Solar System**, Orion Arm of the Milky Way. If you need more directions than that please don't bother sending an RSVP next time. *Next door to Lost Angeles **There are many star systems but our planetary system is the only one officially called “solar system” Likes - obscure poetry, long walks in the sunset, ... oops, sorry wrong forum.

Very relaxing and new age-y. Really like the pitch bends at the beginning and at the end. I can relate to the amount of time put into a song. I usually have 3 or 4 song projects going at the same time. If I get tired or lose inspiration of one, then I go to another. -Bjorn

Thanks to all that contribute here, you make each day a little easier for many.

The Freebies don't change until Jan 3rd. too.

Clearly those are built for folks who can't play the same thing twice over - We Cakewalkers must have superior muscle memory 😃
