Rich and mellow, sounds amazing in the headphones👍🏼

Thanks Old Joad. That means a lot as I try to take time and care when mixing (probably my favourite part of the process)

Soothing, gorgeous, and dreamy all at the same time. I enjoyed that - thanks for sharing.

Amazing instruments for being free. Are the vocals one-shots?

Thanks Antler. Yes there are one shot vocal freebies from Ghosthack (never enough to do a full song!)

Thanks Nigel, appreciated

Here's a simple little thing to illustrate a free sample pack on Pianobook https://www.pianobook.co.uk/ . RJS Classic Electric by Risto Sipola. Available on Kontakt 6 (full) includes legato and chords. Amazing what you can get for free !

Hi Mark, thanks for your response, good to hear from you as always. I'd like to focus, if I may, on the input interface for now. Given that I have a "line in" from the Penta, what would you suggest to get the sound from that onto Cakewalk? I know Focusrite now do interface units so would you recommend one of those? Also, what pedigree of sound card are we looking at? I'm guessing a full on gaming sound card would be a bit over the top but I don't know really.

Hi Keith. I upgraded my interface last year from an old M Audio Fast track pro (W10 borked it) and ater much reserach bought the Presonus Studio 26c USB interface. Advantages to me were it has midi ports, metering on the front, higher specs than the old one. And included Studio One Artist. Plus a host of other freebies such as Arturia Analog Lab, Output Movement, Ujam, And many others. Plus like you I use a seperate voice channel (Joe Meek) to put vocals in. It is easy just to set the mic in to the Joe Meek (phantom powered) and run a line out into the Presonus (I bypass the Presonus phanton power as prefer the sound and compression of the Joe meek). It cost me £160 in the UK. And has been solid so far. And works well with CWB and clean outs to my powered monitors.

What else do you guys recommend from this dev? 

Without a doubt Sospiro Strings (you get seperate instruments bass,cello, viola, violin plus an ens). And I really like his early cello textures which you can pick up cheap sometimes at PB and Loot.

Not for Muze libraries it isn't 🙄 (see many previous discussion here and elsewhere ad nausem regarding Muze)

I'm using nothing but Foghorn in my submission to the Spitfire Bridgerton competition.  I can feel that "everything Spitfire" bundle winging its way to me already.......Brrraaammmm

Yeah ! Got it. (runs in Suite). Many thanks

Upgraded about 18 months ago to a 860EVO 500gb system drive. And 2 x 1TB Crucial MX500 for storage/samples.  Superb performance from all with no hiccups. Could never go back to HDD now (though used an external 2TB WD spinner for archiving).
