  1. Sorry; I should have been less vague. To me, the samples of both libraries sound fantastic (I have Shimmer Shake Strike, and have listened to the demos for Little Epic Percussion). I meant that one of the strengths of SSS is that it can recreate the 'continuous' (not sure if that's the right word) sound of shaking a tambourine/shaker (though it has one-shots of striking a tambourine too). Little Epic Percussion seems like it's more of a library of 'one-shot' sounds (that you could 'chain' together with its arpeggiator). There's nothing 'wrong' with either approach (and both seems to have high quality samples), it's just that they have different applications.
  2. Both Mastercard and Visa have an online currency conversion tool that also accounts for a x% transaction fee. I often use these and compare the price to the cost of conversion by PayPal; I can't remember a time when I saw PayPal to be cheaper.
  3. I almost always pay in original currency when using PayPal, passing the conversion rate to my credit card company (which is slightly cheaper). Different companies have different rates though, so YMMV.
  4. I think the two have slightly different targets: Shimmer Shake Strike is more shakers and tambourines played realistically; Little Epic Percussion is more a set of smaller percussion instruments.
  5. I have a few expansions (around 10), but not any of those. I'd be very grateful, but I'd also be happy to not qualify for someone with less to have them.
  6. Sounds like an update to Triple Meter might one day convert it to iLok; too bad. I know lots of people love iLok, but dongles/PACE aren't for me: I've gotten by so far without and I don't really want to start now. Bright side: I've won one more battle against GAS ?
  7. Does TripleMeter use iLok?
  8. It certainly sounds good. Do we get individual instrument patches with this one (e.g. strings only, flutes only), or are they combined patches (e.g. strings + flute)? Looking at the web site suggests the former, but I may have missed something.
  9. Why not go one further? Try there, their, they're, dare...
  10. Ooo… so many questions: Were the drinks free? Was there fun and sunshine? Was there enough for everyone? or maybe I'm thinking about another club I heard about...
  11. If I remember correctly, it's unfortunately not possible to use more than one code per checkout
  12. If anyone's looking for other alternatives, the guitars from Ample Sound are really good; they are pricier though. https://amplesound.net/en/index.asp
  13. I wonder how this compares with iZotope's (free) Vinyl
  14. It does sound really good. No idea if it will be the case with this library, but one thing I found with Strummed Acoustic (that comes with standard Komplete) is that it's not as flexible as I would like sometimes.
  15. I get it Craig: you need a rest; a breve. Have yourself a nice bag of Quavers too.
  16. nah; it's washable marker pen... I hope...
  17. Closest I could find was Hooked on Classics ?
  18. Not at all trying to talk this one down because it sounds really good, but I'm a little confused: a sketchpad to me sounds like something fairly comprehensive but lightweight, so someone can put down ideas quickly without worrying about library loading times; that said, 26 GB seems like quite a large library.
  19. That would be two steps already ?
  20. Probably because the word Reamp is a little like ReValver
  21. Doing so would either augment, or diminish it.
  22. I have to admit that I don't really know what type of material the LA3 is best suited for. Would someone be so kind as to enlighten me?
  23. I love my Faderport 8, but then again I've not used another control surface so I have nothing to compare against.
  24. Nothing when you're the king of the world, right?... right?...
  25. As great as some of those plugins are, I would rather pay $39.99 for one and use it forever* rather than have nothing after two months. *barring technical reasons, e.g. OS compatibility, etc.
