    TONEX rules.  Low CPU usage and amazing sound and feel (with select captures) and my favorite stuff isn't what IKM captured.

    The only problem with the deal is you will want to get the pedal which will in turn make this purchase redundant.

    is there a point to having a pedal if you dont play live? just curious.

    yup. same here. i think i will wait for a GB or hardware bundle deal. Though, if you get it this way, one is eligible for upgrade pricing to Max should you want it one day.

    Indeed it is... 
    You're right 8 track to full Studio is $259.
    Don't know what the heck I was thinking... (multitasking mental error)
    Still better than $299 non-upgrade price.

    I have BT studio 8 track ver 3. I see following prices.

    259 USD / 259 EUR for studio

    129 USD / 129 EUR for producer

    69 USD / 69 EUR for essentials.

     

    I see an offer for upgrade to 5 which I guess is free. Should I bother? Did they remove things from 3 that were useful?

    I've never found the T-Racks tape machine plugins that amusing, perhaps because I've never used a porta Studio or any of the cassette recorders when I was starting with music. Plus they consume Acustica levels of cpu for no apparent reason.

    This might help you understand how to use them and what they do, They  emulate some pretty complex stuff under the hood and you got to really tweak the settings to get what you are after. Just leaving it on auto does not work well. The way I use them is I get what i think is the right tape distortion vibe for the track, then i render and print and remove the plugin. This frees up resources and also makes you commit and you don't go backwards and keep tweaking. then later on, i might use it again on the mix bus.

    Its not the best solution if you just want obvious analog tape effects. There are things like XLN RC-20 or the free one from izotope called vinyl. I also use the IKM Mixbox modules Tape Cassette and Lo-Fi for that as well.

    Excellent!!! :):):)

    @Peter - IK Multimedia agree too.  The way IKM market that SSRS mixbox expansion makes it really hard for non IKM customers to understand where it is and how to buy it.

    Its not easy to find it on the main page

    and you actually have to hunt for it to find it buried

    Thanks. I thought the demos sounded really good, so with your recommendation, I'm going to make that my first selection from the list.  After that, I have one more plugin to choose. Do you use or have you demoed the X stuff (AmpliTube X-Space, X-Vibe, etc)?  That seems interesting. 

    Especially when it comes to amp sims, I rely heavily on factory presets (I really dont know how to match up component pieces well, so I just tend to tweak presets or swap out effects), so I'm always a bit cautious with stuff better suited for people who tend to be good at creating their own effects chains. That's part of why I bought MixBox. It contains a bunch of presets with effects chains already set up. I'm hoping it will serve as a good tool  for me to learn hoe effects chains are set up (as opposed to say, EZmix, where I merely choose a preset for a certain application without looking at the effects chain). 

    Yes. i have all the X pedals in software form. They are pretty cool. They have lots of presets in them.  i tend to use the Vibe and Time mostly.
