  1. People complain about WUP but D16 wants upgrades for every product I've purchased from them. And when the products go on sale, the upgrade pricing doesn't. I guess if I'd bought them back in 2016 it might seem fine but since I've only picked them up gradually since 2020 it seems a bit rich. Just my 10c.
  2. Yeah I saw that and have tried playing with those, but with no reference to check against its impossible to know what it should sound like, which really limits the effectiveness. I probably should follow up with support - and see if there is any available under InMusic 🙂
  3. If anyone has and uses 8 bit kit, I'd love it if you could explain how to get it not to sound like hot garbage. I bought it during the last sale, along with Dark Farm, and its just... wrong. Only 3 presets, and they didn't even show up until I messed around with the location of files. And when I load any of the kits its just set up so poorly, with levels flat across the board, distorted as all hell, just sounds bizarre. There's no info online about how it should sound, so I have no idea if it's meant to sound like someone with a microphone who went insane made a bunch of weird sounding drum sounds and only half got them to work in BFD before deciding screw it, I'm done, let's put this up for sale.
  4. Was going to get 4 plugins. Demoed them first. Have no need for the transient fertiliser as yet. And the noise reduction one ended up adding weird artifacts. Ended up buying Skaka and Reamp though. Looking forward to having more of a play with them.
  5. This high Softube pricing has Overstayed its welcome, amirite?
  6. Hey folks, I've been testing this in comparison with the AudioRealism ReDominator, which is ostensibly an emulation of the same synth. Compared to this new TAL synth, the aging ReDominator looks its age and sounds... like a Cherry Audio Juno compared to the Softube version, in other words the AudioRealism lacks mojo! This new TAL looks and sounds great, and I'm going to struggle not to buy it, even though my synth coffers are already bulging. But, as the saying goes, there's always room at the top, and I'll happily make room amongst my VST folders for this one, even if I have to delete a few temp files. Here's what TAL has to say about it: https://tal-software.com/products/tal-pha TAL-Pha Release 15.02.2024 We are proud to announce the release of TAL-Pha. A very authentic Alpha Juno emulation with a lot of powerful additions. It's been a lot of work, but it's finally here. 20% intro discount! TAL-Pha TAL-Pha is an instrument plug-in that emulates the sound of the analog 80's synthesizer Alpha Juno II (MKS-50 is the rack version). The plug-in produces the classic analog sound, combined with modern flexibility and many additional functions. The plug-in can read and convert sysex information from the hardware and can also be used as a controller. Authentic emulation of the 80's hardware synthesizer. Resonance boost for filter self-oscillation. The possibility to detune, modulate, and sync the pulse part of the DCO. Simple but powerful FX section with delay, reverb, and a bell-eq. Arpeggiator with different modes. Stereo UNISON mode with up to seven voices. Aftertouch and MPE support. Microtuning support (tun file import and MTS Client). Original factory banks included. More than 380 fresh presets by Electric Himalaya, The Unfinished, Saif Sameer, emptyvessel and TAL. Individual tuning for every voice converts the synths DCO into a VCO. Reads Sysex files and Sysex MIDI from the hardware device. Can also control a hardware device. If enabled, it sends Sysex through the plug-in MIDI output (only possible when supported by the DAW). Requirements: Windows: Windows 7 or higher (64 bit host) macOS: 10.9 or higher (64 bit host). Universal Binary 2 with native Intel and Apple silicon support (M1, M2, M3...). AAX: Pro Tools 10.3.6 or higher (64 bit). LINUX: 64 bit / Ubuntu 18 or similar. Demo restrictions: The plug-in produces a rising white noise sound every minute.
  7. instead of wanting you to buy the whole thing again, check your upgrade price I have all but one of the amps, and I lack the cabinet collection, and my upgrade price is now only $39. Previously it was something silly like $149. Finally they listened! Nice work Softube.
  8. At that price I'm happy to buy it, even though I have the TAL, because I want to encourage Softube to do more of these kind of deals 😊
  9. I have arguably way too many delays. I'm a preset surfer and if they add something new to my toolbox I'm happy. MTurboDelay definitely added some new options. Way more weird creative out-there delays than I expected.
  10. First time it's been possible to get MTurboDelay this cheaply I think... I don't have any of the big plugins in this bundle (surprisingly). Great deal!
  11. Here's hoping they see the light and open it up for direct native sales ala Korg and UAD.
  12. Was that the New York Steinway D? It's the one I noticed sounded the most different, but I only compared 5 of the 11. I liked the new classical guitar voicing. It sounded more alive / authentic.
  13. Definitely AI generated. There's a suspiciously similar look to so many of them. Compare to Universal Audio's latest promotional material. Also if you zoom in on the screen the shapes don't even consist of straight lines or true circles, it's almost like it's hand drawn. Also there's what kind of looks like text but upon closer inspection isn't.

    Considering Bitwig

    This requires the discipline to put a device like Birds MIDI cap on every new track or else. I am not that disciplined 🙂

    Considering Bitwig

    Ableton Live 11 has LFO standard, I only got into Live with version 10 after coming from Reason then Reaper then FL Studio, and after upgrading to 11 jumped over to Bitwig before realising the drop in my creative output was due to Bitwig.
