They must be really proud of their tubescreamer to be asking $50 for it.

Are these in standard midi format or proprietary?

It definitely doesn’t happen every day that a new Rapture/Rapture Pro sound library gets released so anyone using those synths should take notice. Sound design by Francesco Silvestri and Chad Beckwith. As the included 1.8 GB of multisamples consists of uncompressed wave files they can of course be used elsewhere as well.

Yes, and you don't often see new soundware for abandoned products released.  It makes me wonder if they know something we don't.

If I didn't already have MTurboDelay I would be on this.

I suspect some form of Rapture might come out soon.

In the future, there will be new blocks and racks sold by third parties. These partner blocks can be used by anybody who has Blocks Base.

 

The future is already here.

ADDED Visual representations of the audio in and out terminals on panel, supporting up to 40 ports

CHANGED Text module “view” properties default state

ADDED Min width and height properties for instruments and macros

ADDED New font “Roboto Condensed Light” for the text module

ADDED Global switch from A to B view for all instruments at once in Ensemble mode

IMPROVED Design of the interface in Rack mode. Four new buttons in the header now allow for switching between view states “Compact”, “Ports only” and “Ports and Wires”. Additional toggle switch for “Show Structure”

CHANGED Design of the structure view in Rack mode. Removed breadcrumb navigation and Bookmarks bar. Changed color theme and design of structure view

REMOVED Unnecessary properties in Rack Mode. Properties are now reduced to Midi in and out Settings on the connect tab and the bankchain settings on the function tab

ADDED Coloured wires - eight different colours are available to distinct wires in a patch

FIXED Automation ID issue: when deleting a Block the Automation IDs don’t get auto compressed, but keep their original ID

ADDED Consistency for file and project name in Rack mode

CHANGED Behaviour in case of loading a project with non applicable host chunk. If the Rack file is not loadable due to missing instruments referenced in the file, the host chunk will be preserved to be applicable after fixing installation

REMOVED The option to “minimize” instruments and to switch A/B view via the header in Rack mode

IMPROVED “Extended view” in Maschine & Komplete Kontrol enables panel patching

CHANGED The sample map editor in Rack mode. The sample editor is showing only relevant options / functions, as the sample map editor in Reaktor Player

REMOVED Context menus for panel and structure view in Rack mode

CHANGED Handling of missing instruments. As the Rack format is relying on referenced files, a new error message guides users how to fix issues via Native Access, or the installation of 3rd party content

ADDED "Welcome Screen" on start up

ADDED "Load new Rack” entry to the Preference “On startup”

ADDED Dedicated NEW.nksr Rack file to the Library folder of the application

FIXED Accessibility of presets via the toolbar. This issue occurred specifically with REAKTOR instruments like FORM

FIXED Crashes on Core Structure Navigation

ADDED Context Menu for Device Types "Instrument / FX" to the Rack File Drop Down Menu in Header

Was it just my system, or was there no sound on that?

Never mind, process/length works.

I was trying to make a backing track so that my son could practice "Iron Man" to just the bass and drum track.  I found a couple of midi files that sounded promising, but each had some parts that were right and some that were wrong.  So I thought I would try and stitch together the parts I like.

At this point, I have a midi file which is mostly right, but I like the drums better on another one.  The problem is that one file is at 76 BPM, where the other is a half time 152 BPM.  Is there a way to process a clip so that the timing of the notes is halved or doubled?

Isn't 2.9 coming out in a couple of months? 

For those who have FX Pro, it is a $99 upgrade to FX Pro 2 and $199 to get the Elite package. 

For the most part I use Rapture Classic to do editing and use Rapture Pro as more of a preset manager.

Rapture Pro got off to a bad start for a variety of reasons.  While I appreciate that it was like Sound Center on steroids, it didn't seem to be the upgrade to Rapture that Rapture users wanted.  There were a few embarrassing bugs as well.

That was quick!  And something I had totally forgotten about.

I actually have the old forum page up discussing the registry hack to have it not require permissions.  Maybe if I can do that I can get it to run through the dxishell in some other DAWs as well.

Recently I tried to create a track with Pentagon I in  CWBL.  It gave me some odd message saying something like it was not installed properly.  I pulled out my X3 installer and reinstalled that plugin but ended up with the same message.

Of course, it works fine in Sonar Platinum.  Any Idea why it works fine there but not in Cakewalk by Bandlab? 

I installed this and wondered why half the patches were missing samples, until I saw there was a second part to download.

Could be that XLN Audio is just a hobby for the owner.

Maybe he thinks he has all the drums he needs.

I'm looking forward to checking out those new Kontakt libraries. 

Wasn't Kinetic Treats a holiday giveaway a few years ago? 

Me too.  Unfortunately 

a. Pentagon is DXi only.

b. Has a few glitches

c.  For some reason it just has not been working for me lately.  Perhaps I need to dig up one of my old installers.

Nice.  How long will it last? 

I'm not sure I want it for drums, but from the video it sounds pretty good for guitar and piano.

Cakewalk never had that many of the cool kids in their corner either.   The next big thing never seemed to be using Cakewalk products.  They had to trot out guys like someone who won a Grammy for Best Native American Album, or the guy who won season 1 of "The Voice".
