Note: The Tight and Clipping switches do nothing either on the previous version or on the new release. I forgot to mention it previously The update fixes most of the problems I had - only issue (aside from the Tight & Clipping switches) that I had this time was when I stacked two instances of ParametricOD on same track. After saving & reopening only one of the two instances was working. I only tried this once so might have been a fluke. Other than what I mentioned above it passes all the other tests I threw at it.

from: https://www.soundsonline.com/synth-and-effects/spaces-ii "And because it includes all reverbs from Spaces I, Spaces II is the most powerful and versatile convolution reverb on the market." Though if you've used Spaces 1 in a project you may need to keep it to avoid breaking the project. The plugins don't have the same name so the DAW may fail to substitute, I don't know as I have not tested this.

re: Electronic musician magazine dead? yup

On further thought I have decided to not even bother checking this plugin out. Aurora support is nonexistent - I've tried multiple times to contact their support regarding issue with Rhino plugin (and my account) and other than the immediate auto email "This ticket was created on your behalf." have never gotten a response. I had an account on their website but can no longer access it, recreate it or reset password. I tried to contact them again on Friday with same results. I won't do business with a company that treats its customers in this manner.

Played with this (the ParametricOD) for a few minutes... My quick analysis: Temperamental... at least with Cakewalk. By that I mean that sometimes when I inserted it, it would be mute (GUI working but wouldn't pass any audio) then if I deleted it from project and reinserted it then it would work. When I saved it with a project - 2 out of 3 times I tried it reloaded as mute losing its settings and I had to reinsert to get it functional again. CPU was pretty light (one instance running, entire project using less than 3% CPU). Applied it to one of the guitar tracks I use for testing amp sims - not bad. Like an OD pedal - on an anemic track or color to a clean guitar it can add some life - can stack nicely with some amp sims (patch dependent of course) - on its own: as a rock amp sim not bad, usable depending on context; but not if you're going after a metal vibe. My overall verdict - if they can get the bugs worked out, worth having in toolbox otherwise pass. As always YMMV.

Introducing vPlayer 4. The next generation vst/au host https://www.digitalbrain-instruments.com/vplayer4 Note: I don't see any mention of support for VST3s We are glad to share with you the new upgrade for vPlayer, our vst/au host. It has been improved including a lot of new features and a new audio engine. vPlayer 4 is a 64-bits vst/au host developed for playing live an audio plugin rig on stage or while doing a rehearsal, for jamming with virtual synths or for quick testing new plugins (virtual instruments & effects), all without the need to use any DAW, which is usually more complex to setup. vPlayer 4 acts as a wrapper to turn any vst/au into a standalone application. While a traditional DAW can be used for live performance, many musicians prefer the stability and ease of use that comes with dedicated VST host. vPlayer 4 allows playing up to 8 vst/au instruments at same time using up to 4 different MIDI keyboards, so you can join a quick loading jamming session with your friends. 4 Plugin Slots. Each plugin slot allows using 1 instrument & 1 effect plugin. Each slot can be played using a different MIDI device simultaneously (4 MIDI devices) or using the same MIDI device. Play up to 8 instrument plugins. Each effect plugin can be converted into an instrument plugin, allowing to play up to 8 instruments at same time. External audio input available. Use a microphone, any music instrument or audio input from third-party software using virtual audio loopback drivers. Built-in Audio Player. Play any file from your computer. Built-In MIDI Player. Play up to 4 MIDI files simultaneously. Parallel & Serial Processing Modes. Parallel mode allows playing 4 virtual instruments while audio output is processed through an effect plugin for each virtual instrument.

In audio source mode, serial processing mode allows processing your audio input through 8 vst/au effect plugins. Multitrack & Stereo Recording. Record each plugin slot audio output to individual audio files. Midi Recording. Export individual MIDI files for each plugin slot. Up to 4 midi files. Master Rack.

Slightly confused by the various feedback. So what's the bottom line on this amp sim? Is it, that if you have ToneX not to bother adding it to your collection? <sigh> Yeah I could demo it & I will try to do that this weekend, but still value the opinion of the other guitar geeks who haunt this forum.

Thanks for heads up, but all already updated here.

Looks like things got delayed at NewFangled...

WTF My math must be worse than I thought... but the 2nd attempt took me straight to the download.

Wasn't aware of this one. Some nice features and free to boot! Now if only my GPU had the horsepower...

I've bought 2 guitars in the past from MonoPrice and they were both pretty good. I had been wanting a Tele for ages but had no real budget. So I bought MonoPrices Tele knockoff and it turned out to be an excellent guitar. It came properly setup / intonated, nice fret job and came with locking tuners. I was impressed. This was over 5 years ago when they had brought a new master luthier onboard and were talking about their quality in their advertising. Not sure if quality is same or not on current line https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=610261 don't know what else has changed but the one they sell now doesn't have locking tuners. Around 2 or 3 years ago I got their red Strat version to use as the basis for a parts-caster. I had a variety of components (Fluence - Fishman loaded pickguard, locking tuner set, etc.) that I was going to use on Strat upgrade that never happened. The guitar needed some minor fret dressing but was overall not a bad guitar (I've seen worse real Fenders**) and didn't sound half bad; if I didn't have close over $400 of parts looking for a home I might have kept it as it was. This guitar is now one of my favorites. Monoprice has a 30 day money back guarantee so if you get crap you can also get your money back. **My Fender Jazzmaster Squire came with the worst fret job on any guitar I've ever owned etc for the $15 junker I bought at garage sale to test pickups on.

I find the biggest thing that improves my vocals is forgetting to turn on the phantom power to my condenser microphone.
