A while back I got SampleMagic "Magic A/B". It was good. Then recently I got Mastering the Mix's "Reference" on sale. It was better. Now this. And it looks better than the other two. The rabbit hole is getting bigger and deeper.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That is an excellent answer.

I'm baffled. If she can't sing then why do you think guys come to see them?

These days I'm using Slate VMS because it indulges my indecision neurosis ad infinitum, but previously I had been using an ancient CAD Equitek that still sounds great. And if I might, here is a short story about vocals and mics: YEARS ago I was in an honest to God pro studio playing guitar for a friend of mine who was making a record. The engineer was using a U47 for the vocal and the singer sounded phenomenal. After we got done we had a few minutes left so I asked if I could hear myself through the mic. Now this is the U47, The Holy Grail. THE Mic to conqueror all mics. This is the ONE everyone craves today. This is the one every clone strives to be. Originals sell for zillions of dollars. Well, I belted out a line and I sounded terrible! Now, I don't sound great to begin with, but through the 47 it was even worse!! The engineer, who was a good guy, went to the mic locker and grabbed a tiny little SC made by TEAC(!) and, voila, instantly I sounded like a singer! Moral: we all have different voices and you gotta try each mic for yourself!

Ditto. There is one review online and several on youtube. I just got the demo and haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'll get back with ya. BTW the little brother to this thing is on sale right now for $19. https://www.mixonline.com/technology/product-of-the-week-audified-tonespot-bass-pro

If your monitors are powered plug them into a different outlet than your computer.

Hi Perry If you want to hear what you're playing/recording click the midi echo button in the track view. It looks sort of like this )))). Good luck with your music!

Has anyone used this? What do you think compared to Waves?

HS: Have you used this by any chance? It seems very interesting.

I'm with you. The original Babyface is fairly "old" now, but RME keeps it working. These seem like really great people.

Thanks for the heads up.

Once you guys get it installed give us a brief review.

I think they're all good, and IMHO you can't go wrong with any of them. The playing is always very professional and true to genre. I play mostly rock/blues so the packs I prefer are "Dry Beats and Songs", "Blues", "American Rock", "Rock n Roll", "60's Beats" and "Retro Songs". If you're a little leery you might buy just one pack, download it, and if you like it, try others. Good luck with your music.

Excellent idea. It's time somebody made a plugin where you add the vocalist of your choice. Who am I today? John Lennon? Sting? Paul Simon? Taylor Swift? I think I'm gonna float the idea to Melodyne.

I'm frustrated too. How the heck old is AD2? Five, six years? They are sooooooooooooooooooo slow to add stuff that to makes me wonder if all is well in XLN-land.

That's pretty good.

$500 worth of free IK plugins for signing up with the Recording Revolution for $7 per month. Here's the email I got: A few days ago, I announced that I would be reopening my global music community Recording Revolution VIP for new members. And the response I’ve gotten has been nothing short of amazing. People all over the world are excited to join a community of like-minded musicians and get their hands on the resources and guidance they need to take their music to the next level. And all for the insane, low price of just $7/month Well, the deal gets even better… because the Recording Revolution is teaming up with IK Multimedia to give every VIP member a plugin bundle worth $500 called the Total Studio Trio. A quick disclaimer: I’m a firm believer in mixing with stock plugins. Great 3rd party plugins are like buying a fancy new sports car. If you can drive, they’re fun to use, and they get you to your destination in no time flat. But if you can’t drive… you’re more likely to end up crashing into your garage door! The right plugins can make crafting a great mix faster and easier for you - but you need to understand the basics of mixing to make sure you can use them correctly. But don’t worry if you’re brand new to mixing - just spend an hour or two watching the free mixing tutorials on my YouTube channel, and you’ll already be far ahead of the pack I’ll reveal more details about this special plugin bundle very soon… But it truly is a gift with no strings attached. So if you join VIP for a month and download the plugins, but you’re not happy with your experience and decide to leave afterwards - you can keep the plugins. No hard feelings, and we’ll still be friends. Now here's how it's going to work: I’ll be opening up VIP in less than a week’s time, on Thursday, February 21st. And if you’d like to claim $500 worth of free plugins while joining a global community of musicians (and getting all the sweet resources and perks of VIP)... keep an eye on your inbox come Thursday. Hope you're having a great week! Graham Cochrane RecordingRevolution.com

Chandler, Thanx for the vid. I'm pulling the trigger.

BB: good to see you over here on the new forum. That was an excellent read. I've used Kontakt for years but am an utterly "non-techie" person, so articles like this help massively because I would never figure it any of that out on my own. Many thanks for the post.

You're making me imagine that joke, which is probably worse than the joke.
