  1. T/S got my money. JRR was late to the game.
  2. Also here: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SSLEssBun--solid-state-logic-ssl-native-essentials-plug-in?fbclid=IwAR0vZqWnyiHzq8b3jnSuYhht0CcyvXPc8E4zrM-eylsD-dDz38fqmd_LAoM
  3. Korg Pitchblack Advance Tuner Pedal - Metallic Blue
  4. https://goodhertz.co/tupe/ $79 instead of $129. I'm a Goodhertz fan and will probably use this on a lot of 808s.
  5. 14TB Seagate Expansion Desktop USB 3.0 External Hard Drive from B&H (now backordered) Seagate Expansion 14TB USB 3.0 External Desktop Hard Drive from Adorama IronWolf Pros inside if you are a schucker. more info here: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/comments/leunit/hdd_seagate_14tb_35_external_hard_drive/gmi136l/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
  6. Use promo code: BEYERTES Beyerdynamic Amiron Home (717525) High-end Tesla Over-Ear Stereo Headphones (Open)
  7. this... This.... THIS!!!!! I loathe the GUI.
  8. Heh. I've been having some luck with these settings, or about, on various buses (I have this on a synth bus right now and it sounds like it died when I bypass). The "E" can suppress your low end a lot, so be wary. This seems to get trashy and broken sounding fast. I'm a sucker for overusing stuff like this when I first get it to a fault, so I've been leaning heavily on more conservative mix settings most of the time. They claim the low end is "around 100Hz", I think more accurately it's around 85 hertz. They claim the high is "around 10kHz", I think more accurately it's around 13k. Doesn't really matter. It is pretty cool, but I still think I'll use the Black Box Analog Design HG-2 and Phil's Cascade more. I rolled my eyes at PA's subsciption plans before. Now- I think it's one of the best values out there.
  9. They did this with the Phil's Cascade as well. I believe in that case it was scarcity of NOS parts, impossibility to sell in the EU die to RoHS, and an unrealistic required price point for the end user.
  10. AKG K 240 MK II Stereo Studio Headphones We usually refer to these or models like these as "Background singer cans".
  11. Thanks for the info, JimK. I'll chalk this up as "Not for me- probably useful to someone else".
  12. Can someone explain to me the application of these apps? I own their plug in's. I understand the Korg drum machines and synth apps- you use them to make beats, sounds, etc. Singing into a T Pain Autotune App (rip app) and taking the output of your phone and routing it into a bumpbox then to your convertor into your DAW- sure. Makes sense to me. But how are people using these? Are they for people that want virtual guitar pedals or plug in's on their iPhone/iPad? Is there software built in that allows wireless i/o between a computer and the iPhone/iPad? Are they for use when using a DAW on your iPhone/iPad? I just don't seem to get this.
  13. Kinda different. The NX system actually has a piece of hardware that connects to your headphones and is used for head tracking. You can also use the clunky face tracking version with a webcam. This allows you to work in surround environments with headphones on, and I feel this actually has value (latency and other gripes aside). This means if you move your head counter clockwise, it will seem like your right ear is in front of the center speaker (in a 5.1 set up for example). I worked on a surround mix on a plane once from NY to LA, due to time constraints with NX. When I got to the studio with my 5.1 set up coming out my Cranesong Avocet tower, it was really good, and comparable to mixing on headphones vs mixing on speakers. As for using it to simulate mixing in Abbey Road, or Oceanway, or the music hall section of the Namm convention or whatever.... I don't find this to be very realistic or something I'll really use. Headphones and speakers, being as subjective as they are, will likely show other people that thrive using this, but not me. While the Waves NX system does include some " Eq correction", The Sonarworks would be more comparable to, say, the new Slate headphones (even though the Sonarworks can also be applied to some speakers).
  14. Indio by Monoprice Cali Classic Electric Guitar with Gig Bag
  15. It's still working here. You'll see the 20% off in your checkout. Example: It will also have it in the listing: Again- you need to be a prime member and signed in.
  16. Here's the link to the musical instruments: https://www.amazon.com/s?i=mi&bbn=16059675011&dc&ascsubtag=403a9cb25b5211eb9920f23d550c29410INT&brr=1&qid=1611169434&rd=1&tag=slicinc-20&ref=sr_nr_i_21 Here's the link to the whole Amazon Warehouse Garage sale: https://www.amazon.com/s?rh=n%3A16059675011&ascsubtag=6bf56c065b5211eb8e69a6d63f35ac300INT&brr=1&rd=1&tag=slicinc-20&ref=s9_acss_bw_cg_awstre_2a1_w Yep- you have to be a prime member. Yep- you will make Benzos riches, thus stripping you of your wokeness and earning the title of sheeple. Yep- these are used and open boxed items. Nope- there aren't any 100 channel SSL9k's left. There's some decent Radial stuff, and things you hate paying for like rack shelves.
  17. Behringer TD-3-SB Analog Bass Line Synthesizer - Strawberry Cheapest analog 303 clone (moded to boot) I've seen. There's a few other Behringer synths and whatnot that's on sale, like the Crave for $200 or the Vocoder for $500 (really good sounding, even if it's plastic and cheap feeling). Note: there are some other funky color options like Grape, Baby Blue, etc.
  18. You can also change the scale settings to left-handed. This is a big deal for a lefty I work with that has the app.
  19. Fender Tune - Guitar Tuner You can unlock free access to the Pro features for a limited time.
  20. New Macs. Serious sets of headaches. Arrow having a buffer issue and sticking (you can see it in the console) when going through a Black Magic video router. When you go directly into multiple screens, a different set of issues pop up. And the fact that the HDMI cables have to be long (like 60 feet), and all the extenders we've tried add an unacceptable amount of latency (and with OTHER issues as well). When you go through an HDMI splitter, the sticky arrow goes away, but the screens intermittently get these weird trippy horizontal lines that only happen within program windows. Big Sur doesn't fix the issue. We got 2 of them, and with the self upgrades (ram, etc) we did, they'd spec out at over $60k per machine. Sad thing is, I got a laptop at the same time that was around $6k, and it works damn near perfectly going directly into my Raven. And I got a ton of kickass plug in's this year, so I feel more cozy working at home than the multimillion dollar facility.

  23. I use it quite a bit, individual tracks and 2 mix. I probably use it on 2 mix and acoustic guitar most often. To excite things, people would often reach for and aural exciter back in the day maybe boost some even ordered harmonics, but that isn't really a dynamics processor. This is more like something that's going to dynamically shape things. Where others seem to lift up detail (I'm looking at you Gufloss), Intensity hypes the micky ficky out of it. Basically, you ever hear a drummer that should sound like they are making a "Grrr" face, and a guitar that should be making a "stank" face, but you can't imagine it when you listen to a recorded part? This tends to address that. Of course, you can change the curves in the bias settings to whatever you need, but I tend to use it for tonal balancing while I lean on the intensity orb for lifting eyebrows. There's other stuff under the hood as well, like switching the output to 'saturate', which is like a soft limiter one could use for mastering purposes, but I tend to use other tools for that. I mix mostly pop/urban, but I'm doing a metal record right now, along with a Soul soundtrack for a movie, so I cross genres a bit. If you only do, say, "Chill wave" or something that's more like sonic lullabies, this may be a less useful tool for you than it is for me.
