^^^ that Craig Anderton book did it for me - that cmos (?) distortion was great - that and Amp kits from Maplins (RIP)

I have outerspace but I think that's priced too high - I love their plugins but the full price is quite a price hike compared to his other units. I'm with Tom, puts it outside the 'impulse buy' category so it's sits on the back burner....meaning it doesn't get purchased until there is a major sale. Better to sell many plugins a $29 than 1 plugin at $129 IMO - I suspect he's playing with the prices to see what the market will stand.

I think making the hardware gives the software more 'perceived value' than just creating a plugin without any real world context . Even if the hardware doesn't really exist ?

it was nearly a year ago so I've forgotten

I wouldn't like to under appreciate the amount of work required to multisample any instrument - and this particular one sounds excellent..... but I wouldn't have thought that with a piano velocity=volume (pretty much) you can just take loads of samples and let some script sort them all by volume later. I'm sure this is what Toontrack do for their drums - just bash away at them and sort the details later - obviously a drum has less 'keys' but more positions. Midi triggering would make this much quicker of course. (just thinking aloud here - feel free to ignore me)

not sure that's a total bargain ? and Simeon Amburgey's excellent review here:

thanks - I think it's actually about 7 or 8 presets For those on windows curious as to why there isn't a Lindell 50 series folder in /documents/VST 3 presets - (or wherever it is - just going from memory) - try doing a 'dummy' save in the plugin first and this creates the preset folder. Had me stumped for a bit.

quite a nice idea

is that a free update for V6 owners ?

only posting to say I've been hugely unimpressed by SINEfactory....even for free and that's saying something.

I thought that was released today too ? https://new.steinberg.net/cubase/release-notes/11/ "New releases of GrooveAgent SE (version 5.0.40) and Retrologue (version 2.2.40)" Surely the 'Assistant' will know ........

errr.... ? but you already have it ?

plus Groove Agent and Groove Agent SE ? And just remind me - what it the point of doing all that work coding a downloader 'assistant' and not bother to let you know what needs updating ?....isn't that the number 1 most important thing that the 'assistant' should 'assist' with ? Maybe the devs missed the initial get-go meeting

Drivers are being supplied by Thesycon - the provide drivers for some other manufactures (SSL I think?) but are definitely NOT RME standard ...maybe not even MOTU (IMO!) My only experience with BLA was 2 mod kits I bought right at the beginning of the company, probably over 15 years ago....They were to mod an Alesis 3630 - and they were pretty badly engineered - lots of incorrectly implemented choices (again IMO!) - Those compressors were not great to begin with and the mod kits didn't really help ...and in some circumstances made it worse. Was a very long time ago and I'm sure that the company has changed but I don't always believe that a 3rd party can improve upon a major manufacturer's RnD department. Edit - also BLA are one of those companies that talk 100% BS on digital clocking........Compare that to RME's opinons......so that sends a red flag to me, it says hype not science !

yes - although they are only EQ curves and most of those headphones (all?) are still currently available so it's not a total disaster I suppose.

incidentally - I had another update to the XLN installer this morning...I 'think' it's a new one as it only just updated last week.

There is a list of 'supported' headphones https://www.waves.com/support/nx-headphone-eq-correction these have EQ curves built in - worth bearing in mind if you are in the market for new headphones and use NX a lot....

still not showing for me - I think Spitfire 'stage' their rollouts SAA did ask me to install the recent LABS release though - It's done this a few times, where it thinks it's not installed, even though it is and it's working fine. I just install it again - nothing changes but the nagging goes away (a lesson for life there I think)

working here ?

annoying isn't it edit just had an email from waves with a link to @29.99 for AR3 owners

I'd happily pay for that upgrade...which is lucky as I expect we will have to

BFD support email is dead

just a warning that some of those are ancient - BFD1 ! expansions

probably 10 seconds for me too....but now I'm anxious to see your shed building skills
