  1. If I were mainly a guitarist I think I would be buying up hardware stuff........like I picked up this metal distortion box at Guitar Center. Drains a 9volt battery in about ten minutes....but for 10 minutes you get distortion bliss.
  2. I have the pre cooked stuff. I can bring home the bacon.
  3. Until I recently started to track for clients, I had no idea how many of them really don't care what you use. If you can make them and their music sound good that seems to be all that matters for most. One client looked and said, Oh Cakewalk. That was it. The only ones who pick all of this apart are us geeks 😁
  4. Has Bapu finally snapped??
  5. You could get lost for hours with Flatulus and waves parallel particles. I know we've discussed particles here before. This ain't that. Seriously- Oh wait!! I don't have a serious comment.
  6. Goes to show that there's a band named for practically anything out there *oh no, I've opened the floodgates*
  7. The best deal for me is usually a chip that's mid tier. Never had a problem affording intel if I do that. I'm still running my old 5820K overclocked to over 4ghz. I think you can still buy a 5820 for not much $$. 5820 would likely be low tier now but it works fine for me....and will for the majority of home studio small recording studio applications. I've thrown a lot at it and it's never let me down.
  8. Who's Earl Grey? Did he make an album?
  9. I've gotta stay away from this place. Couldn't resist this one. I had the email, but others shaved a few more dollars off of the price. I hate to be picky over a few dollars but money is money.
  10. I was busy last evening and missed the offer. Good to see it's still up till the 24th. I don't think 99.00 is a bad deal for that program. I remember the last time they had a deal like this and the end was the end. I don't think they will keep bumping this along after the 24th. I am optimistic that they will keep developing the program. After aquisition they were likely feeling their way round the first year or two. I think we'll see an uptick in streamlining the UI and functions now. 12.5 gigs if you need/want all of the program. The program is only something like 500mb. Did I see the MF add wrong? Looks like a new user can buy it for the 99 there?? Version 7 no longer works for me. I might need to do a lot of pitch key changes. I realize it can be done well in Ableton. Anyone using both that could comment. Cakewalk can shift existing loops. I know a few who were making loops in Cakewalk. Not sure difficult it was. I haven't traditionally been a loop kinda person. The key/pitch/loop construction part of it looks useful for some of my future work.
  11. I just got this email. Only for those who own a version of Acid Pro already. Should we jump? I doubt it will go lower than this. Details here
  12. Oh I though you said One Knob Plumper *cleans glasses*
  13. Yes that's because she's a reptilian and eats mice 😁
  14. I think the new normal is a ok with me. We do need a conspiracy of some kind though...maybe.
  15. 😆 That's a LOT of plugins......we have a problem guys. Are there any support groups in the NE US?
  16. If its of fairly recent vintage I would maybe load it up as a field laptop. Yes you'll need a wall outlet . Wav files are wav files.
  17. I don't back up the way I should and I know I'm cruising for a bruising. I have had zero issues with any of my SSD drives. The only mistake I've made was to buy too small. From now on I doubt I'll buy anything smaller than a 1TB. I have the tendancy to buy libraries both useful and not filling up my space on my three 500GB SSD's. I just bought the Flatulus library.........now there's a useful one for you. It's not that large, however if you buy 10 more like it things begin to fill up fast. I have a few projects going right now or I would be looking at replacing at least one or adding a 1TB to my lineup. I don't dare do it in the middle of a recording project...you know what can happen.
  18. I believe that Bandlab is much better known to users where it was was mainly originated in those Asian countries. It seems a convergence is happening albeit slowly. If you began on Bandlab, how would you see Cakewalk? Obviously a free DAW is a draw, but I suspect many of these people have no point of reference. From the Cakewalk perspective most were content with a stand alone product that doesn't reach out to anything else, so in that respect I think we need convincing that we need something we weren't really looking for. I'm interested in recording technology, so I was interested in Bandlab as a way to put ideas online. There are talented people all over the world. Creativity does not flourish in a box, so I was looking at it like I could meet a few other decent musicians and have some creative pow wows. It isn't really a warm and cozy kind of experience for me. Not like say, email exchanges, getting to know your collab partners. There are some trade offs. The name of the game is good music. Sometimes we can get too involved in unimportant stuff, so maybe Bandlab is the ultimate way to foster creativity. I have been a slow adopter admittedly. In my case it's because I'm pouring a lot of myself into learning a new and difficult instrument at an advanced age. It's quite a challenge and has taken time away from my recording hobby and projects. I think in the end I'll be a better all round' musician. I didn't take naturally to Bandlab but I haven't given up on it. I'm still in the game and I appreciate all Noel and team has done to make BL so accessible to Cakewalk users as a part of the interface. I think I'm a more committed individual to my work and I don't like the guy who drifts in to "try" something out and leaves. I'm not saying they aren't on BL. But so far this has been my experience, that people want to experiment and try things out but it stops there. My time is probably too valuable for that long term. I tend to get in these moods too. I'll be in BL mood again and put something out there eventually or add something to something else.
  19. Honestly, I looks to me like a few wandered in on occasion and said to them selves. How did I get here, why am I here and how do I get out ?
  20. If they could just see us the place would be swamped with women............................................... ........................ ....................... ......................Right?
  21. There's always my old faithful fallback Audo Technica ATH-M50X. There's a setting for Sonarworks. If you have overly large flappy ears it might be uncomfortable though.
  22. I had a no show the other day from a person I'm making an album for. When I texted him to inquire if he was going to make it, he commented he forgot what day it was. Hmmmm. Maybe I'll forget to make his album.😁
  23. I no know secret handshakes...and I'm slightly dyslexic.
  24. Maybe all of those and a few more.😆
  25. Not sure. I can only guess. I have a pretty good idea about Sharke.
