  1. This is a hoot, it would be sad if it wasn't so funny 🤣 I think he forgot to take his meds?
  2. Not sure what has happened here, but Eddie Van Halen seems to be having a good time 😁 Keyboard warriors, got to love 'em 🤣
  3. Yes, you were to late Zo, demo'd and purchased
  4. I got to step outside for a minute, I just wanted to say IBTL
  5. Bow to the King and pay your respect, remember you are but a mere mortal, and remember the lesson you have learnt.
  6. Well the Eden WT800 Bass Amp Sim is another winner, put it up against all the Bass Sims I have, Amplitube SVX and SVX2, Mark Bass 2, GK Amp2 Pro, Studio Devil VBA Pro, Kuassa Cerebus Bass Amp, Bass amps in Revalver 4, Bass stuff from BIAS Amp 1/2, BIAS FX 1/2 and Bass expansion pack, and you can really tell the difference in sound quality after playing any of the above for a while and then switching to the Eden WT800, the least difference was with the BIAS stuff, but the Eden just has a better quality of sound, just sounds better. Not talking about sounding like X or Y real world amps, but just quality of sound in general. Of course my opinion and my ears, but to me it was quite obvious and noticeable. As with all amp sims I used 3rd party Cab IR's, although as I have found with the Softube stuff their stock Cabs seem to be better than most stock cabs, still I always use 3rd party.
  7. A lot of Islands are sinking you know, it's a sign of the times. He might be heading to higher ground.
  8. Say no more, have you tried Laxatives? If you see a doctor walking your way putting on gloves and smiling, RUN
  9. Is this thread, or more accurately that picture Political, and perhaps Religious? I seem to recall another thread where S.L.I.P posted a picture of a Pumpkin carved out to look like the current POTUS, (very similar to my avatar, which as already explained is actually a sculpture of Alec Baldwin) then a certain person who is crazy about kites reported him and/or the picture, and then and then I believe the posted pic was removed forthwith and the thread locked? It seems this here posting would be far worse going by the precedence set by the fore mentioned breach, as it is crossing 2 lines, Politics and Religion. Lets hop that a certain person who is crazy about kites does not happen upon this thread.
  10. No . . . we can't believe that's it. After trying to fool us like that I think it's I Bin Tellin' Lies
  11. He says as he downloads the Eden WT800 Bass Amp sim demo . . . 😭
  12. Yes, they have pretty much taken over for me. The Softube Flanger is another one that is pretty awesome, I'd say the best sounding software Flanger I have used, it's a shame about the latency, which makes it unusable as a live/realtime effect. I read in a thread on GearSlutz (I think you were in that thread as well) where the dude said that the latency was a trade off to get the sound quality they wanted, so my hopes that it may have been fixed since release or at some future time faded, as he wasn't going to change it and loose the sound, a shame, but it does sound gorgeous. The Fix Doubler also is probably the best doubler I have used, I just quickly tried it against some other doublers I have here Waves etc, and well it's just leagues ahead, great on vocals, great on guitars, I imagine great on everything. It comes in a bundle with the Flanger, so I'll probably end up with the flanger anyway despite the latency issue. . . . and then there's the Fix Phaser, lol, again, hard to beat. They are have a little higher CPU use than other similar plugs, nothing concerning though. Then I have been demo'ing the Eventide Instant Phaser Mk II and Instant Flanger Mk II, and while the Flanger may not sound quite as good as the Softube, it does sounds pretty damn good and has none of the latency issues that the Fix Flanger has. The Instant Phaser sounds excellent. So it looks like the $100 I saved is not saved for long, already purchased Eventide Instant Flanger Mk II on KVR, waiting on reply from another dude who has the Instant Phaser Mk II for sale, and then the Softube Doubler, Flanger and Phaser are still on sale for under half price, so that's that I guess. Then I need to take a break 😁
  13. or with respect to the current climate "I Be Tootin' n' Lootin'"
  14. Simple Minds - (Not meant in a derogatory way, just how simple things can be so good. Great Album, one I would hate to loose)
  15. This sale saved me $100. A couple of weeks back I downloaded the demo's of the 2 Marshall sims, Plexi Super Lead and Kerry King Signature, IMO simply awesome, and I just had to have both, I was prepared to pay full price of $149, but thought I would wait out the demo period, which was 30 days without any restriction, hoping that these would go on sale the next month, kept checking the Softube site and Plugin Boutique as last month drew to an end, and sure enough before the new month ticked over or any advertising came out there they were for $99 each, insta buy, so happy, luck going my way for once, and with 5 days demo period to spare 🙂
  16. I'm not sure there can be a comparison between CTC-1 and Tapedesk, because I don't think they are in the same category, not to me anyway. But as far as sound goes it's CTC-1 hands (feet and any other limbs you may have) down. CPU, well I have no issues, and as such have had no need to really monitor it, I use it on every available bus without even thinking about it.
  17. I would say it may well last forever, it's the same thing I have been seeing as an add before youtube videos for ages, I have looked at it before, but never purchased it as something felt a little dodgy, not that it is, just the feeling I got, plus this type of thing is not something I would usually buy or use, but it did interest me enough to take a look.
  18. This is from the Support FAQ, it's about the $249.99 voucher, but I imagine it's the same for all.
