I agree with the opinion of @User 905133, as well intended as informing us of Larry's well being may be, spotting a forum member elsewhere and re-posting their posts here could be subject to misunderstanding. He would have posted here himself if he was so inclined. I'm sure it would suffice to say that he appears to be alive and well, and posting at KVR.

KORG has released updates for M1 & Wavestation with a fix for Cakewalk by BandLab. Might address the issue discussed above.

M1: Version 2.3.3 [PC] After updating to version 2.3.2, Cakewalk by BandLab would not open the project properly and initialize the synthesizer. This has been fixed. Wavestation: Version 2.3.2 [PC] After updating to version 2.3.1, Cakewalk by BandLab would not open the project properly and initialize the synthesizer. This has been fixed.

@Starship KrupaThat's why some developers even charge for platform specific binaries. Although the source code may be open source and free, it takes a certain level of time and expertise to compile it for Windows, Mac, Linux, etc. The dev can charge for the binary to cover their time, distribution expenses, and/or any support. That's a case by case scenario. But nothing requires them to supply pre-compiled binaries. If they do, then bless their hearts, especially if they are not getting paid for their work. Best solution is to acquire and learn the tools for compiling source code on the platform of choice. Problem solved!

Posting comments about songs is probably the most direct way to interact. https://radioparadise.com/info/faq How do I submit music or suggest artists to RP? "We don't accept submissions via mail or email. The review process can take a while. Please be patient, and keep in mind that we only accept a very small percentage of the music that is submitted or suggested to us.

Tangerine Dream performing live in concert in 2007 with computers & soft synths (Absynth, Atmosphere, FM7, & editor/librarian for Creamware Minimax ) . I wonder if they had a plan B? Sounds great, no dropouts!!!

Lucky break! Get anything good?

You may want to check out this e-book for $2.99 >>> How to Make a Noise: Frequency Modulation Synthesis Kindle Edition (2011) The Featured Synthesizer: FM8 https://www.amazon.com/How-Make-Noise-Frequency-Modulation-ebook/dp/B008H7CEQG Author's site: https://noisesculpture.com/how-to-make-a-noise-frequency-modulation-synthesis/

Check out the soft synths that Tangerine Dream was using live on stage in this 2007 show. One of them is FM7. There are also a few other synths that you may recognize on the large monitors.

So what does it mean when 2 companies (NI & Tracktion) are nearly giving away their flagship FM synths? ?

I checked in my Amplitube 5 and I already had the Nu-Tron III installed. Must have either picked it up with the group buy last year... or already had it in AmplTube 4 MAX.

Izzit any good? I saw that it was free for BPB readers last year, so some may already have it. I got the AudioThing Orb, but not Texture.

I have a friend that's a singer-songwriter guitarist, and is from the Gen-X era. I tried to introduce him to computers and DAWs, but he's just not a computer person, and I respect that. He found his way with a standalone digital hard disk recorder, and was even able to record and mix a CD using that. Respect! So I am sure that there is room for a software medium for artists to lay down and mix quality tracks, that do not require an entire recording studio worth of technology, or the DAW equivalent of such.

Wetter is better!

That could be the bottom line.

I agree about Surge, but I just cannot get past the interface. No joy there, IMO. Vital is a different animal. After I played around with the free version for a few hours, I upgraded to Vital Pro! Matt Tytel needs to be encouraged to keep developing this synth! I also have Pigments and Phase Plant, but there is something really unique and engaging about Vital!

And earbuds...

But then there is also this perspective: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/51291.How_to_Lie_with_Statistics
