  4. NEW! The Minimonsta2 - Upgrade available now MINIMONSTA2 - BOLDLY GOING WHERE NO MINI HAS GONE BEFORE When we first released it, the original Minimonsta gained heavy praise from fans and critics alike for providing an extraordinarily accurate sonic replication of the legendary Model D®. But it went much further, augmenting the simplicity of the original design with a host of new features that allowed the deeply familiar tones to be pushed into previously unexplored sonic realms. Minimonsta2 retains the fundamental architecture at the heart of its predecessor, but builds on this in ways that extend its sonic and musical capabilities into a uniquely deep & musical instrument and sets it apart from other Mini. [New] Fully-scalable UI [New] Powerful Preset Browser [New] Over 800 presets including 300+ new presets [New] Alternative bass-preserving ladder filter [New] Alternative 4-stage envelopes [New] Matrix Reverb effect [New] Vintage knob for authentic analog imperfections [New] Four programmable Macros for easy manipulation of sounds [New] Programmable Aftertouch and expanded Velocity controls for extra playability https://www.gforcesoftware.com/products/minimonsta2/

  5. Tried the demo and this thing sounds wonderful. The cryptic message saying u can only use alpha presets in the demo means only the presets with the Greek alpha symbol next to the preset's star work. There must be a lot of interest cuz their site is getting slammed.

  8. Metric, of course, is wonderful if you're counting to 10, or slightly higher than 10, because it corresponds to the number of fingers on the human hand. If you're counting higher, or aren't in the habit of using your fingers as calculators, the United States customary system corresponds to the tuning of A above middle C, bringing unity to both longitudinal and acoustical measurements. Commonly referred to, in the USA, as the "Harmony of the Spheres," this synesthesia is what intuitively allows us here in America to see and hear the underlying relationships of different modalities of thought, and invent things across different domains like television, electricity, the internet, the 20th century, dinosaurs, rock music, and hamburgers.

  14. Just an FYI. USB C is a connector type. At this time, it could be USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 3.2 Gen 1x2, USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 or USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. USB 3.2 Gen 1 and USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 aren't necessarily USB C, they can have USB A connectors. https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/what-is-usb-c-an-explainer

  17. Yep, though most of those are not my cup of tea (high gain stuff), I'm aware. Honestly, I think it is a great approach - getting everything in one box that one would use live, especially now that there is a pedal version. I've thought about capturing some of my plugin rigs in addition to the real world gear I've done already - so I don't have to deal with the plugins - AND to let me use them with super low latency that I can't achieve in an actual project.

  18. My thought is how long is it going to take for them to go the TONEX route via the plugin form now that there are dozens of Youtube videos talking about the QC no longer having quite the value it once had now that TONEX is released in both software and hardware versions.

  21. This is pretty impressive, though the full version is out of my price range. However, the free version is pretty capable as it includes one cab and 4 mics, with the ability to export 2 IRs per session. ML Sound Lab makes some of my favorite IRs on the market, so this is worthy of at least grabbing the free version. I wish my previously paid IR packs work in this thing, but oh well... https://ml-sound-lab.com/pages/mikko2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWjn_Ad3Z0c

  31. Thank you. There is unfortunate confusion about the terms "USB C" and (less so) "USB 3." And then of course there's "Thunderbolt." They all relate to each other, but they also get confused for each another. I didn't pay it much notice until last December, when I bought a Dell laptop that has a Thunderbolt 3 port. At that point I started wondering what exactly I could connect to such a port. I also wondered where the docking station connector was on my new computer, turns out the answers are related. One way to remember it with USB is numbers=protocol, letters=connector. There's no such thing as a "USB 3 connector," nor is there such a thing as the "USB C protocol." A USB C port on a given bit of hardware might only be for USB 2 protocol connections. A USB 3 port may use a USB A connector. Thunderbolt is yet another protocol, and it's also a term for a certain type of port that always uses USB C connectors. A Thunderbolt 3 port is, physically, USB C. Protocol-wise, it can handle DisplayPort video, charging, and USB 2 and 3 and Thunderbolt data. The way to tell whether your system has a Thunderbolt 3 port is that it will be a USB C connector with the image of a lightning bolt (of course they would use lightning to muddy the waters even further) printed or molded next to it. So rather than using a traditional docking station, if I want to connect my laptop to an external monitor, that will be done via its Thunderbolt 3 port. My understanding is that if I had a charger with enough current capacity, I could even charge the laptop via its Thunderbolt 3 port. There's a LOT of confusion. The statement "USB 3 uses the USB C type connector" is only true some of the time. Any current USB protocol may use any type of USB connector. My Presonus Studio 2|4 uses USB 2 and has a USB C connector. So the only way you know what's provided by a USB C connector (aside from the fact that it will include some kind of USB) before plugging something into it is if you see the lightning bolt indicating it's a Thunderbolt 3 port. Going forward, it's a good idea when buying USB C-to-USB C cables to get only ones that are rated to work with Thunderbolt 3. This is because Thunderbolt 3 uses "smart" connectors that help the devices on each end know who they're talking to. My understanding of the term "jitter" relates to variances in clock frequency. I assume that jitter on the MIDI clock results in slight variations in delay? I suspect that will take a very long time. Speaking strictly for myself, I'm not dumping any of my MIDI 1 gear in favor of MIDI 2 gear. I mean, not just for the sake of being able to use the new protocol. This discussion has made me wonder what we'll see 20 years from now, once MIDI 2.0 has really taken hold, and CPU's have gotten even faster at executing instructions, With a resultant reduction in the amount of latency and timing variations. will we start to see plug-ins that imitate the current imperfections? People will claim that the variations induced by timing inaccuracies were an important part of what made late 20th and early 21st century electronic music sound like it does. "That's why sequenced music that you hear today sounds so mechanical and robotic. Back then, since the tech wasn't as advanced, there were all these little imperfections." Just like we have "analog" buttons on compressor and EQ and delay plug-ins that induce noise, roll off highs, add subtle compression, etc. we'll have "MIDI 1.0" buttons that induce latency and timing variations. And they'll do the same kind of tests that we do, put a dozen instances of the vintage-izer on a track just to see how their effect adds up and what they're really doing.... Seems funny, but we make music in a world where pretty much every producer and mix engineer has some sort of "bitcrusher" plug-in that they can use if they want to get the cool grainy sound of the earliest samplers. Not saying that we all use them, but I bet if we looked in our plug-in collections, somewhere in there, as part of a bundle or whatever, we could find a bitcrusher. That would have seemed hilarious to me 25 years ago. But bitcrushed sounds have become part of the musical language of some genres. Turns out that we like it when music bangs up against technological limitations. Take away those limitations and some of them we want back.

  37. Exactly. Last on my list would be isotope. There are a lot of great free compressors and a lot of them support side chaining. That's what its all about, Ducking or pumping a bass line from a kick etc. I made a video featuring 50 free compressors

  42. Info: https://bedroomproducersblog.com/2023/02/26/clean-machine/ Download: https://amalgamatedsignals.com/ Clean Machine, by Amalgamated Signals, is a dynamics controller with features of both a saturator and a compressor. It has timing controls like a compressor, but it applies a continuous gain reduction curve like a saturator. It also has a third timing parameter called “transition”, to control the speed of the shift between attack and release modes, for more transparent control of dynamics. At very fast settings and relatively low drive, Clean Machine acts like a saturator, subtly thickening the sound and gluing mix elements together. Slightly increase the attack and release times for gentler transient control and reduced harmonic distortion. With higher levels of drive, Clean Machine can control large dynamic swings and peaks. Try a fast attack with a slow release, and notice how the compression sounds more transparent as you increase the transition time.

  44. Just my opinion but I wouldn't let an on/off switch preclude an otherwise great solution. You could always use a power strip, smart plug, etc.
