  1. I have a small issue with part of the OP title. Not a deal? With all the stuff they roll out, I actually feel like Bitwig is almost a continuous deal. I find if a new feature doesn't make me go, "Oooooo." There's always a video of someone using that new feature in a way that I wouldn't have thought of, and then that makes me go, "Ooooooo. Shiny!"

    (Of course now that I have said this out-loud the company is probably going to immediately fall into complete disrepair and me and this comment will be over here choking on a foot.)

    But that’s much harder than going on forums and blaming Izotope for all your problems.

    Don't worry, the blaming still stands. Just edited my post. The new products just auto-install and ignore the custom setting in preferences. I nominate Izotope to become the new Bud Light.😜

    At least this appears so for Ozone 11.

    Well crap... the "repair" is because I obliterated all the aaxplugins... had to "repair" a few to see what this was from.

    Side note: All three of these applications install the aaxplugins as well without asking (NI taking over iZotope changed the installers iZotope uses now). I was a bit shocked to see aaxplugins for every module from Nectar 4 and Ozone 11. Ugh.

    There is an option in the settings section of the Izotope Product Manager, Preferences>Custom Install, that gives you manual install options. Then you get the usual pop-up to install and can select "custom install" and deselect AAX.

    Edit: I just started installing the new products and see that you are correct and that Izotope have decided to circumnavigate customer preferences. *sigh* Brilliant! Yet another reason to nab up Izotope alternatives and cut the cord from these complete and utter corporatized dregs of the industry.

    The best one was the "Okay Boomer" one BMW did. It's awesome when your marketing department talks shit about their target audience but are too stupid to notice.

    Haha that's pretty rich of them. What's next, McDonald's doing an ad where they say "no fatties!"

    Looks like their DAW crashed too.

     

    I wonder if they found the experience bitter or sweet, or bitter-sweet?... I messed up and re-uploaded the photo. I chopped the very important bottom off somehow.🫠

    If it's so easy to sound like Tom Morello, why does nobody else sound like him?

    Same reason as Dime's tone. When you select such an overboard setting for your guitar tone it immediately sounds completely derivative of the artists who broke through using those sounds. No matter what you play, it will get the comments on who you're trying to be. But that didn't really stop anyone back in the day. As someone who was playing live gigs in the early 2000's I can tell you I played with piles of original no-name bands who were out there using Morello-esque tones and doing hip-hop inspired fx leads (scratching, delays swamped into whammy and back out again, etc.) So, I suppose the answer is that Rage happened to catch on and I guess not really anyone else of note with that particular sound caught on with them.

  7. I would stick the beta 91a inside the kick shell, flip the polarity and use that as your tonal boom sound to blend. Then stick the beta 52a outside and run that through the distressor. I have found that a slightly less detailed percussive sound won't spawn as much gunk when distorted, which should result in a more immediately usable thud.

    They keep releasing "new" amp plugins and continue to neglect GTR...

    It's pretty sad

    A bazillion percent AGREED! Also speaking of sadness, does Waves know NAM exists? The examples vid isn't very impressive considering the current quality level of amp modelling. $29 is significantly more pricey than compared with completely free. Why it's an entirety of 29 buckeroonies more than zilch, if I am not mistaken.🤑

    I might consider updating Harrison now. I absolutely hate how they react to even the slightest criticism. 

    I had similar thoughts. Quite weird how this move completely 180'd my intentions for what I was going to do with my Harrison licence. Which was set virtual fire to it and never bother to install Mixbus on my PC again. Now that it's SSL though, I can't help but feel a tad "Ooooh shiny!" about it and find myself planning to upgrade to the latest. Even though I am confident disappointment is almost certainly ensured.

    I might have a problem.🤪

    When that plugin scan goes over a thousand you know it's time to seek help.

    This is too true. I regularly click into a manufacturers folder in the fx bin only to  experience the startling realisation that I indeed own (sometimes) multiple plugs that I cannot for the life of me remember buying or even using at some point. I guess that's why they call 'em "No brainers?"
