It hasn't even been offered in a Bundle

It's in the RX Post Production Suite 4 bundle, though at $1,999, there are quite a few things above it on my wishlist. In fact, there are so many things above it that it's fallen off my wishlist; not to say it's no good - just to much for me to justify.

Looks interesting... Shame there's no free trial (though they offer a money back guarantee)

Annoyingly I forgot I had APD points to spend - still got a few more now

Looks like it's already at base price - you wouldn't have been able to go any lower

So... you're wanting (the completely fictitious as far as I know) Superior Keys?

I have all their older strings, which are not on sale right now, like the Adagios and the Agitato's and Anthology which the new Adagios are sort of a repackaging of the Anthology's.

For those not in the know (i.e. me), what's the relationship between the Adagio, Agitato, and Anthology series?

The impression I got of the Play series are that they are pick-up-and-play instruments: good for inspiration/putting ideas down quickly.

I glanced at their requirements and they appear to require minimal space (compared to many of their other instruments). Most likely because the MODOs are mostly modeling based rather than sample based.

As far as I understand, MODO Bass is fully modelled; for MODO Drum, the drums are modelled (or mostly are) but the cymbals are sampled. I'm open to correction if I'm wrong.

how are you triggering the samples ? nudge up the ride velocity ?

 

Programming by mouse - finger drumming is on my to-learn list.

Maybe the simple truth is that I'm 'hitting' the main drums too hard in relation to the cymbals: I'm not a real drummer, so don't know the 'velocities' that they would play at.

I remember signing up for a similar deal for Lunatic Audio - did they release anything other than a VST Pong game?

never noticed that myself - is this a specific kit your noticed this on ?

Not really - I (personally) found it to be the case on most of the kits.

If the mic'ing is typical, I probably just need better technique for mixing drums - I find that when I try to bring up the rides to a good level, then the bleeds of the drums (e.g. kick/snare) become overpowering; when I try to tame those, the cymbals end up sounding a bit naff.

I know you can turn down/off the bleeds in SD3, or do a dedicated ride mic (which is what I've been doing so far); I'm always happy to learn new techniques though, so happy to receive any drum mixing advice.

Loop based vs multi-sampled instruments - How do you know the difference??

If available, demo/walkthrough videos are a big clue. Sometimes the product descriptions will say things like 10,000 samples, deep-sampled, or 5 round-robins for multi-sampled instruments.

Generally, the orchestral/piano/guitar/voice ones are multi-sampled; the Hybrid Tools series are more loop based.

I bought some of their orchestral libraries but don't use them much.  Not that there's anything wrong with them, it's just that I eventually purchased libraries I like better.

Do you have any examples? (i.e. a 'secret' way of asking what libraries we might want to put on our sales-wishlists 😁)

As we've mentioned other drum software, does anyone find that the ride in SD3 (that by default is only captured by the overhead mic) is very quiet? I know you can modify the mics and assign a dedicated ride mic, but it seems a little strange to me to have this as a default setup. Disclaimer: I've never mic'ed up a real drumset so if this is how you might typically do the mics, I'm happy to stand corrected.

MODO is supposed to be a drum 'modeller' - so the drums (not the cymbals) are modelled rather than sampled (although that's only partially true !).

I was hoping that as it was modelled, it'd be able to do brushes/mallets. Alas, not the case... (yet?)

Sounds very cool - are the whispers separate instruments/patches, or are they baked into the vocals?

This looks really good.

Does how you draw have any effect on the sound? e.g. does left/right affect panning, or does drawing faster/slower affect pitch? Are the rendered .wav files mono, or stereo?

(Sorry for the question-barrage)

Would the 25% off coupon stack ?

Not sure which coupon you mean, but their Bundle Maker coupons probably work; not sure if the free gift applies to the pre or post coupon price though.

Does anyone have any of their post-2018 orders showing up on JRR yet? I saw somewhere that they said they're slowly being restored, but it'd be interesting to know if anyone here has had theirs restored yet.

Welcome back, Larry!

How come you didn’t send us a discount code for that free deal?!

If you've been paying attention, you'd know by now that it's either GROUP, or FORUM 😁

I'll install it tonight.  thanks

You'll probably love ADAPTIVERB, but in case you're looking for yet another special FX reverb, have a look at Polyverse Comet (not on sale right now)

Used my NewPassword code at JRR to upgrade my Ozone9 Advanced to the Tonal Balance Bundle. Now I have two Ozone Advanced serial numbers! Is the new one stand-alone? Will it work for someone else if I sell it? Personal sales are not allowed here, correct?

Could be wrong, but I think the new one is for Ozone 9 that comes in the Tonal Balance Bundle.

I think personal sales are permitted, but you're not allowed to post a price.
