Ditto, bought it a couple of weeks ago last time it was on sale (think I paid the same). Is the PA version the same as the original creator or has it been improved by the addition of PA license technology?

I guess irony is in the eye of the beholder - IMHO it's a matter of time vs money vs effort vs what technique(s) works best for you. To transcribe you need to have have tools at hand (source capable of playing/replaying material to be transcribed, instrument at hand, something to transcribe on or to, etc.) and enough uninterrupted time to properly utilize them. Transcribing is a great way to learn and tune your ears but not necessarily the most bang for the effort and the least portable. And you still need learn theory and utilized other techniques to train your ears. Of course YMMV.

+1 but that's kind of hard to do while you're waiting for a traffic light or your zoom meeting to start - the Tenuto phone app is great for using those moments that would otherwise go to waste for tweaking your ears.

Bold ones are ‘done’ others don’t exist yet. So there has been some progress since last time I checked. - I bought in during the end of year sale (same price or close) which was still going at least into Feb. I'll have to dial in later and check things out again. At the point in time I last checked (late Jan/early Feb) there were 0 interactive training modules. Edit: 0 is a little harsh, he does have numerous training videos and practice drills (identify the interval, triad, etc.) He does have his over/under exercise which appears to be an excellent one that I need to be doing. I really need to get further into his program before I can give it a realistic critique. If you're a bit rusty on this stuff Rick's course will probably frustrate the crap out of you (or maybe it will incentivize you...) - it did both for me. I'm not giving up but I'm using another app to resharpen my ears before I go back and give it another wack.

The Tenuto app goes for under $5 and is a great ear training, theory & scale trainer. The also have a web site: https://www.musictheory.net/products/tenuto Free exercises: https://www.musictheory.net/exercises

> I have great respect for Rick but... Did he actually finish the course yet? When I checked a month or so ago nearly half the course was as of yet not created.

Winkey plus period does the same thing. ?? Handy thing when emailing or using various chat systems at work. Which begs the question why does any company need to support multiple chat platforms for internal communications (ms teams, yammer, something else I can remember the name of and Skype which they've just removed)?

They use to... looks like Line6 removed the PM function on their website forum...

Looks like there are a couple of Line 6 Helix Native licenses being resold for $150 on the Line 6 forum... https://line6.com/support/topic/45810-anybody-have-a-helix-native-license-for-sale/page/3/?tab=comments#comment-376812 You may have to sign up to access forum. Note that a Helix Native license becomes NFR on transfer, so if you one buy it's your's forever.

Any MIDI arrangements playing non-western arrangements? For example something in 6/8 time? I listened to the demo and to me it all sounds like western musicians playing non-western instruments theatrically... Not faulting the quality of the recordings, etc..

Great news (and a relief!) as I bought the BM Tribute Library as a XMas present to myself a couple of months ago after years of waffling about it. Bravo Spectrasonics!!

+1 When I was freelancing as a web designer/programmer I could justify the cost an Adobe subscription. Now I can't and so I don't have access to the Dreamviewer, Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.. Granted some of my files can be opened in other apps with various losses in detail - but if I can avoid doing so I will never go for another subscription where I don't end up owning the software.

For whatever reason they rarely, if ever, announce updates. I was checking their website checking on something else when I noticed that they had released the updates.

Nice announcement but 1.206 is the latest available on the web site...

Pedals - A Historically Accurate Musical Comedy

OTS Evolution Update (not a deal) Today we've released a much-needed update to all our Evolution guitar libraries. What's new: The update fixes a bug that was causing the strumming patterns to occasionally play an 8th or 16th note late in certain DAWs. While we were at it, we added a new guitar cabinet model to the collection: a vintage '60s Danelectro DM10, complete with the original 8" Jensen speaker. You can find it on the list of cabinet options as "1x8 60s Danny 10". Our recently released Evolution Bluegrass Banjo sample library already features the improvements in this update. How to download the update: Option 1: The latest versions are available in the downloads section of your account. You can redownload the ZIP files for each entire library and swap out the existing libraries' folders with the new ones. As long as the locations of the libraries are the same, Kontakt should still be able to find the libraries. Option 2: If you would prefer to download just the updated resource files, you can download this* ZIP file containing the NKR files for all the libraries. With Kontakt closed, replace the NKR files with the corresponding new ones. *Note: zip file is 2.8GB Of course, if you have any questions, please contact our support. Enjoy!

Wasn't this only available in Thunderbolt-2 configuration? Looks like it's been discontinued...

Actually it's a sale on "Car Explosions" Just what you need to give your song that explosive sound. This library features professionally recorded high quality explosion sound effects. Brutal sounding explosions that tear apart entire cars. From Hollywood film style gasoline explosions, to mobster style "under the seat" explosions, we disassembled the cars in every possible way. $125,30 US Excl. VAT (Regular $179,00 US Excl. Vat) The 3 main actors for this sfx library are: A small Nissan Micra, a SUV Opel Montery and an Opel Vectra station wagon. It was important to us that all three cars had their interior fittings intact so we had all possible options to attach our lethal explosives. We experimented a lot by blowing up different parts of the vehicles to come up with varying and characterful explosion sound effects. Learn More

My iZotope issues are resolved. They finally after multiple conversations un-iLok-ed their plugins in my account. Using their Portal you can install and authorize all their plugins. Once my iLok issue was cleared I was able to authorize all of my iZotope plugins at one time, painlessly; no need to authorize in my DAW. I still could have authorized them individually in the Portal but no point in doing so.
