As many of you know, I lost my last YouTube Channel, after 100 videos and 14 years of work. My first video from my new channel is finally up! Please support me any way you can with my new channel. It has one subscriber (me) right now. Absolutely anything you do--subscribe, like, comment, share on other social media platforms, etc. will cause YouTube to show my video to more people. It’s going to be a long slog. Hopefully this will take less than 14 years. I don’t know what you know about The Metaverse, or if you care, but I have become convinced that it is something we should all know about. For one thing, McKinsey & Company says that The Metaverse may generate $5 trillion dollars by 2030, so pretty much all the world’s biggest companies are spending hundreds of billions of dollars to cash in on this thing. (You may have heard that the company behind Facebook is spending a measly ten billion a year in hopes of grabbing a share of this bonanza.) I believe it will be a tidal wave for anybody involved in music and the arts—but truly it will affect all commerce. I don’t think that The Metaverse will be here for ten years or a lot longer, but still it’s good to be informed. Forum rules will keep me from posting more videos here, even though I never made one cent after all my years on YouTube. So if you want to be notified about my videos, you’ll have to click the YouTuber bell in order to get notificatioins. But it is allowed for me to put my link below. I’ll be writing a lot of music cues for this Channel. I don’t know if I would call it music in this one—maybe more like textures. I used two recent sales purchases (Vocalise 2 and Audiofier’s Veevum Human) for the staccato female vocal sounds you hear during the titles. After I get going with this, I hope to expand some of these cues into actual music, and do a separate “Metaverse Music” channel for them. Thanks everybody! PS @cclarry has subscribed, so now I have two subscribers! Thank you, Larry!

Is there a prize for the longest thread title?

Well, I am subscriber 42 and totally expect answers to life, the universe and everything. ?

All of you are helping me so much, and I am very grateful. My dream is that YouTube will pick up on this engagement and start to show the video to people who are interested in the topic. But I'm realistic. I'm going to have to make a dozen more videos before that is likely to happen. But I'm committed. I've already written drafts of 8 or 9 of the scripts. As I have to be traveling a lot this year, I got myself a laptop powerful enough to run Premiere.

I can't find MyTube ?

I guess I am lucky 13! ? Congratulations on launching this new endeavor, hopefully the momentum can pick up as you have a lot to offer.

Ol' Man River - Frank Sinatra Years ago, when we were playing for old-timers, and they wanted to hear Sinatra, we learned a few. I'm a decent singer but not a great singer, and while studying Sinatra songs, I realized that although he wasn't flashy, he was quite an accomplished vocalist.

I soooo want this! Such a good deal. But I'm gonna be good and stick to my new year resolution... less gas, more making music ?

Darn, nothing for us owners of hard tubs!

Ultra-deep sampled analog synths... For those that live in a universe where disk drives grow on trees!

IMO if you’re looking for the best (most balanced) composer forum, that’ll be The Soundboard (https://thesoundboard.net/). Sure, VI Control has many more threads and posts, but you may get lost between Cinesamples lovers and Spitfire haters or vice versa (pretty much like the IK Multimedia and Plugin Alliance spam you refer too). And you’ll find many naysayers without any experience there as well. OTOH, some very decent posters too. I tend to follow three or four forums, as they all have their particular merit and allure. Meanwhile, not bookmarking much anymore. And definitely not visiting KVR or Gearslutz the way I used to. But our Cakies forum has this je-ne-sais-quoi that I’m not feeling anywhere else.

I have hung up my music hat for good now and moved over to visual art completely. I will be deleting all my music work offline sooner than later so if you want to get a free (or donationware) Ableton, Native Instruments, Arturia or Kilohearts pack, preset or instrument from the Flintpope Music Shop please do so asap! https://bit.ly/FlintpopeMusicShop P.S. Someone will say why not leave them online? I will say why? They are slipping into the out-of-date, behind the times zone soon and I have lost interest in the complex process of producing these items, promoting them and then receiving very little in return. I can make a piece of art in a shorter time, enjoy its production infinitely more and make a reasonable profit from the process.

@Monomox @abacab I didn't really lose my channel. I didn't violate any policies and I wasn't thrown off. All the videos are still there. They just can't be monetized for technical reasons. I just don't think it's fair that I should work for thousands of hours and spend thousands of dollars without any hope of ever making five cents. It's the principle. So I'm moving forward with at least hope. I made a video on what happened, but it's my belief that Google doesn't offer any technical support, they just use AI. And they figure if somebody has a unique problem that can't be solved by AI, that is worth less to them than the huge cost of paying real people to work in customer support. Another thing that was interesting is that I read they have a policy that forbids people within Google to help anybody with a problem--as that wouldn't be fair! I do have a friend who once had a very high-level job at Google, and he told me he tried to help one of his best friends and he couldn't. This problem could be fixed in three minutes, but I don't think it ever will be. So I've moved on. It's okay. I've found a topic I'm really interested in learning about, so that's my path forward. I will have fun doing these videos and write a lot of music cues for them. The problem is solved because this channel is associated with my wife's YouTube Channel, and, more importantly, her social security number. So they'll pay her. That's fine with me. All in the family. ?

Problems with 3rd party MIDI files and Studio Instruments (or any Cakewalk sfz engine synths) almost always comes down to unexpected data shutting down the sfz engine. IIRC, by default Guitar Pro adds some non-note data to its MIDI file exports that the Cakewalk sfz engine synths can't handle. There may be some configuration in Guitar Pro to skip this part of the export. Otherwise, the fix in CbB is either clean up the data using the Event List View and/or enable "Do Not Intercept NRPNs" in the SI Plug-in properties shown below. The data is most often at the beginning of the file before the first note.

alright then nice atmospherics very ethereal I'm missing just a little low end (listening at 70-75 db in my room) the bass drum could be more present, actually, not present, bit a little more 500 for the drums overall love the guitar work, the chorus is cool I love this thank you

their lips are all in sync \in room 42/ intrusion filled with tape machines from heaven 1984 read the words it has come to past to crap in I did love the Ensoniq ref, great stuff be well my friend, very cool

Wow. Just wow. The lyrics express my sentiments exactly. I assume Tristan is your son? Did he write the lyrics? Since I do some video, I'm totally blown away with what you've done. Must have taken you many hours to put that together. Excellent! 42 is always the answer. -Bjorn

Nice, nice. Lots of products that I own but haven't delved deeply into.

Thank you, and thank you to Focusrite and Groove3.

I tend to just use clip gain automation, normally after consolidating all my comps to a single clip.

I find with 8Dio, it's all-or-nothing. I have some 8Dio libraries that have some great components, and I use them regularly; and I have too many that disappointed me greatly and have never been put into a project. There's nothing in between. And for the libraries that work, even they are hit-and-miss when considered on a patch by patch basis. The Century Brass and Anthology Strings are the ones I use most often, but only specific patches, and only for specific purposes. The above-linked Majestica does not interest me in the slightest. I have not heard a lot of good things about it...
