    You will have to pay to download the sounds again after that date (think new computer installs etc).  

    Oh yes - I remember that now.  Thanks Brian.

    ps - sorry for double posting the image - I couldn't work out how to delete one of them

     

  2. Whilst we're dicsussing the vagiaries of the IK processes, in my product manager I have a days eft indiation for all of the sounds (actually counting from when I registered them in the group buy last October). Since I've bought and registered these (with the serial number from my products page), why do I have "days left"?

  3. I've had the i-rig 49 Keys for a couple of months now and I haven't ventured too far into it apart from just using it as a simple keyboard driving Kontakt and Sampletank both standalone and in Cubase and Cakewalk (on Windows 10).

    Today I noticed a key wasn't sounding (either in Cubase, Cakewalk,  or on those standalone hosts) and so I checked other keys and it seems every eight semitones keys don't produce a note in those apps, and doesn't appear to be sending midi messages. The keys not producing sound (going up the keyboard) are: G#, E, C, G#, etc.

    I've reset the i-rig (i.e. through Edit Mode), and that didn't do anything to help. I suspect there may be some sort of mapping issue somewhere, but I'm rather lost for what to try next. Has anyone seen this before, or can anyone offer any remedy?

  4. I have Ozone 9adv, and I'm happy with it for mastering.  I never really got on with Neutron Elements for the mixing stage,  but they're offering a reasonable price for Standard.  The offer for Neutron Advanced is a bit steep at the moment, but I'm tempted by the Standard offer. Does anyone recommend Neutron Standard? I'm otherwise quite comfortable mixing with conventional vsts, track by track.

  5. For the banjo,  play around with the level,  but I'd say it's probably OK as it is. I'm intrigued with instruments which are almost inaudible but do actually make a subtle difference, and you can tell the difference when they're taken away.

    For the izotope stuff,  I'm really keen on Ozone for the final stages,  but I just can't get into Neutron. 

  6. Hi Fleer, That's a really nice acoustic sound you have there. It seems we both have a liking for the acoustic folky stuff!  I've played this tune in our band a few times.  Also thanks for the details of the instruments. 

    The banjo is mixed really low, over on the right hand side I think, but just enough to add that texture.  I have the Indiginus Fiddle and I'm still exploring the settings on there, so I have a few guides to try now - thanks again! The guitar and mandolin are nicely done - beautiful tones and nicely balanced and produced.  Lovely sound!

    For my own stuff I normally try to do the mandolins, guitars and banjo. I'm still learning the fiddle, and I don't think I'll be troubling the sesion boys in that department!

    Cheers

  7. Here in Warwickshire UK, coming up to midday Wednesday, we're on a very unseasonal 385 Kelvin (OK ... 12C), which is about 8 degrees above normanl, and rising. It's nice not to be uncomfortably freezing, but also alarming in the context of global warming.

  8. Steinberg have issued an update on their licensing news page

    December 15, 2021: Updated licensing terms on “Online Activation”:

    Based on the feedback we received from our customers, we have decided to make changes to our initial concept. First, instead of reconnecting to the internet within 30 days, once your software has been activated on your computer, it won’t need to contact our Steinberg Licensing server again for the purposes of activation. Second, we have decided to increase the maximum number of activations from two to three computers per single-user license.

    I've successfully used their Uilleann Pipes. Love the sound. Very expressive. When I bought them (last year) I didn't get any virus warnings.

    Bought it now, installed and playing - great vst!

  10. I was contemplating the Uilleann pipes,  but haven't yet committed to them.  However I did download the installer and McAfee burst into life with a dire warning of a dangerous file.  I presume this is a spectacular false alarm,  but I haven't progressed with it.  Does anyone else have this?
