I did a couple of the demo songs for this one, Midnight being the first one on the playlist, a lot of fun. They made some welcome changes to the size of the GUI, as TGuitar was massive and overwhelmed my 1080p monitor 😳 I would love to see them update it with the MGuitar GUI size.

"Taikos Not Included" Westwood Instruments continue to produce some very interesting libraries and this one is no exception. Using recordings from their earlier Untamed series libraries, these harness the percussion side of the stringed instrument family by presenting the knocking, tapping and other techniques to provide a unique percussive experience. Powered by the FULL Kontakt engine, Percussion Untamed comes with 200 MIDI loops that give you lots of options to start. These MIDI loops can also be used in your DAW by Dragging and Dropping them into your track. Percussion Untamed is currently $19 during their intro period ($29 after June 17th).

Reid, This was a great time sharing together. The wonderful thing about this is that we have no idea where things go from here. It is like we got on this ship to just take a voyage out of our shared love for music and the desire to connect with other musicians. I am very honored to be a part of this. This newsgroup is case and point of how powerful having a community is, it is a very beautiful thing. Although we may never meet face to face, we share that common bond, and that is so powerful. I hope to see many of you come along for the ride, and who knows we might see some of you take a seat at the Composers' Roundtable.

So here is a quick pic of what I have been staring at most of the afternoon ;^) On the Left is the ASIO Link Application and on the RIGHT is ASIO Link Cakewalk view. I am listening to a YouTube video that I can hear coming through the speakers I also see where Cakewalk is trying to send its audio on MIX 5 and 6 The biggest problem is that I do not know for the life of me how to get the Cakewalk 5 and 6 audio to go to the Speaker output. I know it is probably right there under my nose but I am not seeing it. I do have the cables disconnected as I was trying various things before taking the screenshot. Thanks again,

I hope everyone is doing well. I have run into an issue using ASIOLink and I have become somewhat frustrated in missing something very obvious that I am just not seeing. I have a Scarlett 4i4 and want to be able to use Cakewalk as I normally would and send it's audio to DISCORD and be able to monitor the audio from both Cakewalk and Discord without causing an audio feedback loop. I am just having the hardest time understanding how to set up the mix racks. Thanks for any suggestions or assistance, it is greatly appreciated.

So here is a livestream where I ran through a lot of the Keysuite instruments: 00:34:14 ACOUSTIC | Austrian Grand 00:35:30 Playing The Austrian Grand And I do agree that I am so glad that they are now making this available as a standalone, instead of exclusive to the Keysuite package. Enjoy!

This was one of my early piano reviews and still a favorite.

Pulling it down now. ;^)

Here is a playlist covering many of the Sampletekk pianos I have reviewed in the past, enjoy. So some of these are from some Audio Plugin Deals and other promotions but this might help give you an idea of the sound of these.

My full press release here: https://wp.me/p6Mqqs-Cm So it looks like they are connecting the dots very slowly one at a time. From the teasers it definitely felt like they were going to introduce more strings, we shall see.

I’ll just leave this here 😎

This was my first experience with a Fab Filter plugin and it lives up to the name "Fab"! I love the interface and how intuitive it is to get something sounding wild right away. I am hoping this will not be my last one.

Yes, the Synergy was sort of an outlier. I remember working at a Piano and Lowery Organ store at the mall. One of the organs featured the interchangeable ROM cartridges that we similar to the Synergy, and actually could have been based from their sampling technology. It is amazing that we were talking about only seconds available for the sampling content back then.

And her is the Chairman of the board himself :

Oh yes, "High Hopes" is a classic. If you ever watched reruns of Lavern and Shirley ;^)

I loved sharing this library with all of you. I have very "high hopes" for it ;^)

OK, I will try and get something together soon. I find my experience has been just the opposite, as I have been able to play some very airy, beautiful textures. I guess it is where their starting point of reference was.

So, I had a chance to get a quick play on this and it really does sound wonderful. I keep asking myself;” ok another Mosaic Series, what could they possibly do?” Annnnd they always seem to do something that surprises you. I am hoping to get on stream soon to share it so be on the lookout for that. Also there are additional discounts for owners of previously released Mosaic Series libraries.

Unfortunately, it is not. You can check out the full details in my press release here: https://praisetracks.com/?p=2340 It does look like a crazy delay for sure.

Here is my official press release with more details. Very exciting stuff. Although, I thought they might actually be porting these libraries to their Spitfire Player. https://wp.me/p6Mqqs-Bl

Westwood Instruments have created some amazing solo string libraries that take them to never before creative places. Now you can purchase all four as a collection with a generous discount. Also if you already own any of the previous Untamed libraries, you will also receive a discount consideration to complete your collection. More info here: Westwood Instruments

I thought I would share some fun news. Tonight on ABC at 7:00 PM EST, I will be on America’s Funniest Home Videos. I am not sure where in the program, but keep a look out for someone talking about the hazards of lawnmowers and bees 🐝

UPDATE: So there seems to have been an issue with some popping in Tubed Keys. Visit this link and you will see the download link for the fix on the top left of the page. https://www.sampletekk.com/electric-pianos&product_id=201
