The biggest issue with studio one prine for me is the lack of compressor.

Might be time to upgrade

I got my plugins to work by following the advice posted, but I find myself hesitant to use them. Losing that weekend left me very unmotivated

I think the most effective way to use AI for myself is to use it to speed up processes I can do just fine in my own but more efficiently with AI.

You are likely right. I think it was the annoying ilok nags every time i started my daw that annoyed me

I think there is some middle ground between being reliant on AI and being a ludite. We use AI all the time but we don't necessarily call it that. Automatic transmission on an automobile is to a degree AI. There are some functions that are simple enough to be automated like initial levels.

These mix checkers are at best very general and not meant to be the final word on a mix. Even within a genre, the "ideal" mix is subjective and will sometimes be way off of what these tools suggest. I do think where these tools come in handy are when you find yourself not able to work with your usual setup (particularly your room and monitors) and you need a little assurance that where you are provides a similar sound reference.

I got this free and have never used it

Kind of what I would expect from an mp3 of a 4 decade old song mixed to sound ideal on vinyl and tape.

Maybe scrub all ik references in registry before reinstall?

This was not one of his better reviews. Because he refuses to read manuals or use plugins the way they were intended he sometimes misses the mark.

I don't mind MTM making our freebie NFU. In general they tend to be pretty generous and Tom is a pretty chill guy. He gave me a freebie when one of the products I owned was discontinued. I own bassroom via the freebie but I may grab bundle anyway

The ssl or harrison?

I will only consider it if i get one of those ridiculous sales lol

They sound the same to me

I might consider updating Harrison now. I absolutely hate how they react to even the slightest criticism.

I got as a freebie as well. Like Starship loved the micropitch . i might start using it again.

If i had not just spent money with melda, this would have been my "support a good company" purchase.

Even though I said I am not a fan of installation process, it's not some deal breaker type of thing. I have owned modo drums 1.5 for awhile and have not felt inclined to install. I am sure i am past the 180 days but don't really care. At some point i will use jampoints to download everything and store.

When that plugin scan goes over a thousand you know it's time to seek help.

I appreciate all the sales. I just feel like i will never fond time to truly master any of them if i keep buying. I will probably get eZkeys 2

I can't rationalize this deal either. I have amek 9099 and few other bx ones including focusrite, ssl j and g. Plus i just got melda easential fx amd ik's total max 3.5. i am beyond good on plugins. That's not even counting all i already had

Amex console is my favorite console by them by far. It is default in most of my templates

And that comes from a person who just bought 3.5 max. No, I'm not likely to grab 4 anytime soon because , well I'm not Bapu( just being lighthearted. I love that you support these businesses) and I already have too much software that is redundant and funds are saying no. Just because it's not right fit at the is moment does not mean it is a bad deal.

IK is a textbook example of no good deed goes unpunished. Their rep has been enduring neverending negativity for well over 10 years from people who seem to have no appreciation for the fact that IK often provides great value. Yes, sometimes they miss the mark, but sometimes they offer you like 50 products for the price of one. I am not a fan of installation process or how some bundle upgrades work but that is minor to me and pales in comparison to companies like izotope ( in izotope 's defense, I have had reps discount me on upgrades when they realized I had most of individual products) who will charge you to "upgrade" to a bundle that literally contains one more item. IK's product line is so vast that their bundle gives you more than most of us will ever need to create, mix and master most forms of popular music and to then some at a price that is decent even at full price. Let's be honest. We rarely buy these things at full price and still complain. Some of us have multiple licenses of these products that end up resold. I'm not saying everything IK does is perfect, but they seem closer to being "on our side" than most. They even offer decent free versions of multiple products than can often be upgraded with the freebies they often give out. If IK ever folds we will miss them.
