telecode 101

good one. i already had it. i really liked . I wish they gave away the H-delay

wicked.. mine goes to 11!!

i am sort of now doing my research to see if what EQ emulations I might want to get into. It's between Neve and API.. or get into compressor limiter collecting.. Neve vs SSL.

I got that with my interface. It's pretty cool. Can anyone comment.. is there any point on getting IKM Tracks British Console if you have this?

wow.. thats a pretty decent deal if you need or want the ARC and mic.

FWIW.. I am waiting for a MODO item that is in the $199 range to on sale somewhere for <= $99. I feel IKM are going to pull some slingers as the group buy continues to hook in some more sales before end of Sept. (based on my guess that they will extend the GB to Sept 30).

they have Orange amps at Long and McQuade.

A lot depends what sorts of tones you use. What I have found really useful in May collection is the emulation of the effects. Chorus and Kat tremble booster. Also, browsing through the presets of how the IKM guys made some of those sounds was a really learning experience for me. The combination of amps and placement of effects in the chain gave me lots of ideas that I never really considered before.

the May collection was a good buy. The treble booster is really useful. One of my most used now. I just finished testing Satriani. Lots of the usual stuff you would expect in that collection. But I find the rockman really cool. Nothing like it my tool chest. I have a feeling I will use it a lot. I posted a thing I just played around with on my SC page in case anyone curious.

It all depends what sound you go for. I use Leslie a lot.. but also Mesa, Orange and Fender 2.

FWIW.. I use both AT 4 and AT 5. I upgraded about a year ago. I find the GUI and usability in AT 5 was worth the upgrade. It also does sound very different and more "modern" (to me anyways) if thats what you are looking for.

yay.. picked up Satriani as freebie.. now just need to ask.. has anyone seen any blurbs anywhere that state or claim that Fender Collections 1 has been updated for AT 5?

this ^^ also, i just manage all settings from Focusrite utility. It seems up update settings in IKM and Cubase as well. But I never use low buffer settings for mixing. just for recording.

hmm.. that doesnt seem right. i am fairly sure i can use the ASIO focusrite driver with it. i should check when back in studio.

https://www.beatskillz.com/shop/retro-bundle/ Hey.. it's a retro bundle... what more is there to say .. "We wanted to pay homage to the sounds of the great soundtracks from the 80s from composers and tv series /movies such as John Carpenter, Harold Faltermeyer, Jan Hammer, Michael Jackson, Prince, Night Rider, The Terminator, Commando, e"

oh no... those nice folks at NI are really wanting to get into my wallet for the next Komplete upgrade.. someone should do a meme.. "the power of NI compels you to open thy wallet"

it could be. i recall it used to randomly crash on my old mac and interface. i have been using 24/48k on my new setup for a while now and no issues on windows. i usually flip to 256 or 512 buffer when mixing and mastering.

where does one get a PA voucher? do they send them out to everyone or only peeps that bought something last month?

Yup. AT 5 CS does not have the new amp engine. To get the new sounds.. you need at least SE.

works on other stuff too. you can get the Abbey Road collection for $176

I think its pretty good. I dont regret my purchase. But is a bit of a slow loader. FWIW.. I still switch back and forth between AT4 and AT 5. Depends on the project. The ability to drag and drop fx and cabs is pretty cool and handy when trying new sounds.

that seems to make logical sense to me. other wise you will have a mass dumping on KVR of people reselling IKM stuff they got as freebies..

hmm.. this group buy is getting slow.. at this rate.. it looks like next freebie will be thursday or friday..

yeah.. I dont even have a *****ing studio. 99% of my house is taken up by my wife and kids. I get a tiny corner in a garage.. 😞

good stuff. i am holding out for something in the $199 tier.. and I am in..
