  1. Whoops! Need more coffee thanks for the correction. Carry on 🫡
  2. Have it & like it. Really depends on your genre taste/what you make, but it can turn any sound into inspiration for a track. Personally got it bc I was interested in the mobile app compatibility, and how easy it is to access recordings. Mostly enjoy low effort needed to do the recording from a phone that’s already in my pocket all day
  3. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nlVA_e6WQhw&pp=ygUOc2lndXIgcm9zIGxpdmU%3D oldie but goodie
  4. Absolutely! Really into the song you posted; like gibberish with little snippets of english between phrases. Attention grabbing and all of the fx on the vocal make all the jabber blend in seamlessly. Thanks for sharing
  5. Thanks for all the inspiration, everyone. Please keep the conversation going! In diving further into the topic , I might even try going the route of making up my own language like Sigur Ros guy? We’ll see. It sounds silly but Jónsi from SR talked about his writing process in various interviews. He mentioned that he often begins by creating melodies and vocal lines without any specific words or meaning. He focuses on the emotional qualities of the music and tries to convey those feelings through singing. Described his approach as more intuitive and instinctive rather than following a specific method or structure. He has also mentioned that the use of his made up Hopelandic/Volenska language allows him to experiment with different sounds and textures without being bound by the constraints of a specific existing language. He stated once that he wants listeners to have their own interpretations of the music and lyrics, and by using a made-up language, he allows the songs to be open to individual meanings and emotions. I mean hey, whatever it takes to overcome writer’s block. At least in my case as someone who primarily does instrumental tracks, i’m used to writing melodies first, so shoehorning a made up language into my compositions to enhance the emotional impact might be the path of least resistance for me here. As much as I want to establish a single standard process/order of operations that applies to every project, it does seem way more nuanced than that I think. Hence why i started the topic, can’t consider all of the different perspectives out there without asking first
  6. Which order keeps you going more in your writing process? Feel like when I write the melodies first, the lyrical content sometimes takes a hit. On the other hand, starting with lyrics first might limit create freedom through the rest of the process? what do you do?
  7. Unsubscribed when dirk left, did i miss something
  8. positive review: Been a user since the intro. While multi-mic positions has been something they’ve been putting off now for a long time (really wish it would come sooner), they did promise keyswitching, then introduced it which i appreciate, and the entire system is super low latency and low storage space compared to kontakt. On an 8gb ram machine i’ve been able to run multiple 16 output/instrument instances of the plugin without overload. Lots more on the agenda/stuff to be excited about per their youtube podcasts. I don’t have spitfire libraries to compare it to, but to my ears quality is good enough, the potential is big, they are kind of just doing their own thing. Honestly, when each instrument is routed to its own track, there’s enough tweaking I can do with that type of workflow to get the exact sound i want. I have used at least one musio instrument in every project since getting it. The customer service is also one of the better ones for a music software company
  9. Is the studio box redundant if you have no issues running arc through an app that can run plugins on systemwide audio, like soundsource on mac? lets say if latency wasn’t an issue either, outside of having an extra correction profile, & externally processing correction to the full system’s audio, are there other benefits (to getting the box) i may be missing?
  10. Eilean piano by this dev. has been my go-to cinematic piano for the last few months, which imo is similar to NI’s noire but i like it a lot better. Has a unique atmospheric/pad-like layer that you can blend in with the modwheel. really interested in this one as it looks like a big time saver in the realm of layering different sounds for climactic textures
  11. Any Difference from the filter module in rift? Worth the price of a cheeseburger if i already have that?
  12. Re: shadow hills—I have had both since dirk’s big giveaway a few years ago. I think they color the sound a little differently but too subtle for me to tell how. but GUI wise the L/R sides can both be linked/adjusted simultaneously on class A, while you have to manually adjust each side independently with the non class a version
  13. I would compare waves plugins to those old nokia flip phones.. wouldn’t say visual appeal is their strong point, but you can throw them at just about anything and they’ll still work
  14. 0.2 versions till 8 already? 🫠
