Is anyone currently using successfully Emu Emulator X3 software sampler in their setup at the present time?

excuse my rant.

just logged in to Cakewalk , and an orange box appeared "try the new free tier or our new discounted offer of $49 dollars" no free tier anywhere, just the subscription offer. why bother, it's just taking the customers for idiots. if you have a box that you ask people to press for something you advertise, have the thing you offer on the other bloody side of it.

That was the way to go, found a program that separated the drum break by transients,(like a traditional sampler) and it automatically converted it to midi. works like a charm, happy days. it's pretty tight on the conversion, some vsti's are a bit sloppy, lot of potential. 👍

you are indeed correct, after checking it is perpetual as long as you don't update past a certain version.

an upside down version of what you want, might work if you reverse it? you might be able to use a sidechained gate effect also.

If it doesn't last forever it's not perpetual 😄 perpetual /pər-pĕch′oo͞-əl/ adjective Lasting forever; never-ending. although nothing really lasts forever, but I have a disk of Sonar 7 that I recently loaded onto a win xp machine, that is perpetual, If there was a nuclear war, all that would survive are cockroaches and software disks old Sonar programs.

popular misconception is that the Reaper license is perpetual, it lasts for a certain amount of versions, but the free one that it would revert to is the exact same so you could use it, £60 every 2 or 3 years is something people are happy to pay.

thanks for the tips, I will try that out. what I was hoping to do was have the midi information and the drum module automatically know which parts of the kit go where. I 'm thinking that is a bit much to ask and I will have to assign channels to each midi hit. maybe if I split the audio in a a sampler first, then convert the separate hits to midi. my first test will be to dissasemble an Amen break and reassemble it using a roland 909 kit ? I wonder what it will sound like?

So, I have a recorded drum break (in audio), I covert audio to midi, I then want to use an external drum machine to change the different parts of the kit (same rhythm/break) but with different hits. I think the main problem is splitting the midi drum kit into it's constituent parts before swapping them on the drum machine. I obviously would like to do this in the fastest most simple way possible. any ideas? thanks.

I could have got a years subscription to Sonar for that.

I 've gradually escaped from the clutches of the cult of GAS, just use the damn plugins you have. how many can you use at once anyway? I knew it was a thing I should be avoiding when I bought a "fairchild" compressor plugin, then decided I needed 2 other fairchild emulations a day later. I didn't need them at all, cost about £100 for 3 bits of computer code. not good imo.

you're themes are great, I have the 1970's yellow installed, makes using the cakewalk daw a more joyful experience. (I changed one of the yellows slightly to a more orange shade) How did the 1970's happen? who took responsibility.

go for it, it will be the best $49 you ever spent.

If you want all the features you have to buy the full version, all the money people spend on VST's and software synths, you're DAW is the most important thing. you can't have your cake and eat it too. stop being such tightwads.

he didn't pay for it, she paid herself, probably went on her own, I be a bit worried if he went to a taylor swift concert.

I know a young lad who's girlfriend went to one of her concerts at wembley stadium a couple of years back, ticket was £600, it wasn't even at the front. that's how she can afford such large bills as that.

you're not allowed access to it, you moan too much. it's only for non-moaners.

So, you could "subscribe", not continue after the year, but continue to use the software, just not benefit from any updates? the plot thickens.

that's what cowardice looks like, bandlab got all the money and let cakewalk /sonar deal with all the shade.

I'll try a more abstract way of explaining it, you have 2 pieces of white cardboard in a circular tube shape (a loop) on the outside is the "gated" "transient shaped" signal, it would be cut into the cardboard so you could see through the gaps to the piece of card board on the inside would be the waveform. you would be able to turn the outside "cylinder" and depending where it was turned to would determine what was seen of the waveform inside. (what sound would come out) you could "cut" any shape into the outside but it would be "frozen" the inside "sound" would always change as it was turned. make more sense?
