Installed!

I didn't get the email but it was on our studio email APD account. The code from it works with my account. I'm not sure exactly what I'm buying as I've been using Tonex quite a bit by just going online from AmpliTube 5 and picking Tonex presets and it lets us use them. The 20 downloads thing for CS (correcting earlier when I called it SE) also is confusing. Any comments on benefits of buying Tonex would be welcome (Peter IK - are you here?) Thanks, Doug

I bought a pair of iLoud MTM's in excellent condition on ebay for a little less than 1/2 price. I don't have the best position for my mixing desk and should do more acoustic treatment but the ARC feature mostly took care of that. They are very clear - great for mixing multi-track live performances we record.

To quote Ed (Bapu) - "Installed!"

HookTheory's HookPad web app is worth looking into. It will sync to a YouTube version of a song and show you the chords. It's also a composition tool.

Lois responded - said they are considering the model I proposed - it's the same as Cantabile or Reaper - you get a year of updates - then software keeps working but you can't update until you renew the license. I don't mind it for software I use regularly and if the annual isn't a crazy high amount. Cantabile hits me up for $99 a year but the developer Brad is continually adding features and resolving bugs and the software is awesome for live performance using just VSTs with a midi controller. I think we all agree Reaper is a great value. I think they may well go that route.

I posted feedback - said I prefer perpetual license that can lapse but keep working at that update until you re-up. Cantabile and Reaper are examples.

I've only bought a limited selection of Unify libraries; Cloud City is one of them. Modern Cinema Back To The 80's is another good one.

Mr. Figg....for some reason that makes me think of "Mr. Anderson" ? Perhaps your Matrix sub program is stuck in a Deals loop.... My method for this forum is I check it once a day looking for anything free and worthwhile or specific upgrades or expansions at very low prices. I then mark all as read in the upper right so next time I can see what's new. When I see something new for a thread I already looked at I click the highest page number - if the thread is continuing on in an interesting way I back up to earlier pages in the thread. I'm only on for a minute if I don't add comments. The Deals forum has helped me build a very inexpensive and comprehensive plugin collection not only for myself but also a studio I work at. I think the commentary on the value of "soft synths" and mixing plugins here is some of the most useful I've seen. Thank you Larry and the rest of us who try to beat him to the punch ?

We have a situation where we've setup some band members to be able to overdub in a copy of the project at their location and then send the finished track back to the studio. They all have different plugins so we have them "print" a track with the effects and also send the original unprocessed track. We use bounce track to make the "print" track

I regularly use Reaper (when recording midi heavy project), Cakewalk (chose it for recently created studio) and Mixbus (mixdown). Since the studio isn't very midi oriented, I will probably go to Mixbus. Version 10 is running very well. It works better for mixing sound for videos which we've been doing a lot of.

We bought and Axe I/O for the studio I'm working with so had $45 in Jam Points - we used those to buy Total Studio Max 4 for $154. The studio is just a year old and hasn't participated in a Group Buy so this really helps for mixing and adding guitar parts.

Nice sounding, light weight grand piano! Thanks for the heads up.

I had seen this mod discussed but never followed up on it. Agree the stock RA100 soundstage is lacking. I didn't get rid of them so will try the mod. Thanks for links. EDIT - I need to buy a pair of flush cutters - what kind would be best for this mod?

It was too steep for me ? - that's why I found a pair on eBay. A studio I work with recently bought a pair of Yamaha HS8's for the same price. That control room is bigger and treated acoustically and the HS8's sound very good and don't fatigue us after hours of mixing but I think the MTM's would do just as well and perhaps provide more detail. I'm going to bring my MTM's over there at some point to compare.

I recently bought a pair of these (v1) on eBay- absolutely love them. I was using ARC for final mixing with an Alesis RA100 and Tannoy PBM 6.5s and saw the ARC studio module introduced recently. While researching the ARC Studio unit I figured out the MTM's have ARC so went that route instead.

Based on what I've seen that video would be 12 hours still skipping many parts. ? I think the name of the documentary should be "Installed!"

I'm now remembering the card was a Voyetra V-24sm.

Does it include the part where I met the Twelve Tone crew at a business expo in CT in the late 80's and ended up buying an MPU-401 bundled with Cakewalk v3? I ran it on a little orange screen lunchbox Compaq clone.

Really enjoyed watching James Farber explain the mic's used

Figured out why I was confused on this. I've bought two Axe I/O's. The first one at my studio didn't come with Tonex SE as it pre-dated the release of Tonex. The account of the second one I bought for the studio I'm working out has it.

I was having fun going through all the soundbanks and then had to update my video driver for another project and now the OsTirus crashes when I launch the GUI. Does anyone know a box I can uncheck (or other similar maneuver) in the nvidia control panel that might resolve this issue?

They should add Tonex SE to the Axe I/O 2 free product dropdown - we would have chosen it.

The SE version is very small but we picked it as a free choice for a new studio that bought the Axe I/O and was entitled to 2 free products. They are only interested in effects so we chose it and Mixbox, the only two offerings in the list that were effects. The drop down was only Syntronik SE, Modo Drums SE, SampleTank SE and the above.
