Welp, someone's gotta.

If you think the song is bad, check out the OFFICIAL video.

Overheard in a bar in Milwaukee in the late '70s...

I'm shooting pool with a friend, when 2 young punks walk in and head to the jukebox. When they come across a Jefferson Airplane:

Dude 1: Jefferson Airplane? I thought it was Jefferson Starship.

Dude 2: Jefferson Airplane was their name before they got their $hit together.

Those 2 almost got beaten with pool cues.

The VST2 version of 1.3.2 also crashes Gig Performer and Studio One.

Yes,  Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh aso, wow..

I m a fanboy and very proud to have recorded Magma

1983 during a concert in the Fabrik,Hamburg.

The Band perforned ca 4 hours  in front of a total enthusiastically  crowd.

Magma is touring this year and there is a new CD on the way.

Hope to get a ticket.

1) Is that recording available anywhere? I envy your opportunity to record them!

2) I've never been lucky enough to see them live. The closest I got was plane tickets to Mexico City to see their show there, when work got in the way, and I had to cancel.

I didn't learn of Magma until 1980, after Attahk was released. It was very difficult here in the States to find their LPs. When Seventh Records remastered and released their back catalog, I bought it all at once (over €500). Seventh were nice, and added a bunch of accessories for free!

Alles gute!

Another Magma fan! Woot!

What would the world be without Seventh Records in France? I own dozens of Magma/C.V. albums, lots of boots and some videos, too!

Seventh Records

Butt-ugly website. Great tunage!

¡Muchas gracias!

Also works great in Studio One and Gig Performer (live).

Got my Instant Pot Ultra last BF. Used my $10 Prime Day credit from Whole Paycheck and snagged a Fire TV Stick 4K for less than $17!

Totally agree about the Klanghem stuff.  Also don't forget the TDR free plugins.  In both cases I soon upgraded to the full versions.

WARNING re Klanghelm...

The freebies are so good, you'll buy his full versions. Well, I did. Really nicely priced (DC8C @ 23€; SDRR @ 23€; MJUC @ 24€). And his meters are also excellent, with great  ballistic response.

And how can you not like a guy who named his saturation monster SDRR (*****, Drugs, Rock & Roll)! 😎

EDIT: This forum didn't like the first word, but y'all know what it is.

Thanks! My login was remembered, so I didn't need to login again.

ChordPulse is great. Simple and quick. BiaB takes more time, but covers much more ground.

I highly recommend LoopBe1 (no noticeable latency for me) instead of LoopMIDI (noticeable latency when playing live).  I went ahead and bought LoopBe30.

True, but last I checked I was thinking the "local" ilok manager requires deactivation from the PC.  So if that HD fails for some reason, you just lost hundreds, or thousands worth of virtual gear.  

 

And yes, I can't see any possible scenario where I'd pay for a Slate like system.  You can't resale Slate either??  

Haven't tried. Kept hoping for machine auth.

Most (all of mine?) plugins that use machine auth. permit 2 or 3 activations, enough to get you going on a replacement PC before trying to get the used activation back.

At least Soundtoys allows PC authorization, unlike Slate, which forces you into either a hardware key or, MUCH worse, the iLok Cloud, where the plugins keeps checking for auth via the internet. Sure wish I could get that money back.

Would anyone agree that Boz stuff will always be useful, easy to use and sound great? And usually quirky enough to do things other similar plugins don't do. One of the names you can trust, AFAIC.

Yup! Not Soundtoys (best bundle ever!), but quite useful tools.

They have bundled the instrument soundbanks you used to have to pay separately for into GP7, so this is a really good deal.

I highly suggest this book (if it's not the one you ordered). It's not just a large collection of recipes, like most of them. Most recipes have interesting variations, but most importantly (for me, at least), was that they give a lot of "why" and not just "what". Very informative.

All of my Imgur photos have gone missing. I just get their version of a 404 page. Bastidges.

Now that's funny, right there!

Mama cried and daddy burned

When I told them what I learned

Map the Tack to your right hand. Map the Rain Piano to your left hand.

Play boogie woogie with the left and honky tonk with the right.

Sounds FANTASTIC!

I had been in the habit of clearing this directory from time to time...and then forgot all about it.

What a mess!

Now?

Mess be gone!

The AudioBox series has been around a LONG time. I bought an AudioBox 44VSL way back. Then "upgraded" to a Tascam US16x08, which worked great...until Win10.

I'm back to using the AudioBox with my desktop DAW. Really good mic pres. Good unit all around. With 2 things that I don't like.

One, there's no thump protection when powering down the unit. If you're driving powered monitors and haven't turned them off before turning the AudioBox off, you'll get a nasty thump.

Two, the power switch is in-line with the power cord and not on the unit itself.

With the AudioBox i2, I'd have a third complaint.

The i2 is buss-powered only.

But it is supported by the current release of Universal Control (the PreSonus drivers).

If you hook up two condenser mics to it, you  could have a problem with the 48v supply, especially if you're running off a laptop on battery power.

You pays yer money and you takes yer chances.

Bon chance!

I had decided I was going to win it, but after that picture you deserve it.

Maybe they'll give me 2 FaderPort 8s, and we can split the pot?

All I Wanna Do Is Ralph (sub. Talking To Ralph On The Big White Phone), ft. The Tapester

I should have one available after July 6th, 'cause I'm absolutely certain I'm going to win PreSonus' FaderPort 16 giveaway!

It took about one minute for the standalone UVI Workstation to load the full Ravenscroft 275 library.

You might want to use one of the smaller libs (Close, Player, Room or Side) for development, and then the full lib for bouncing. They should load faster.
