  3. Many years ago, I had the pleasure of doing a recording session (in my spare room!) with Hawkwind's original guitarist, Huw Lloyd-Langton, doing a cover of one of his tracks. He brought his guitar and I just plugged him into a first generation POD Pro, picked an amp and speakers almost at random, and he sounded near identical to how he did on the original recording... I've now managed to get a sound very, very similar using a TH-U amp model/effects chain that is nothing like the gear he would have used in the mid-80s. So I now completely ignore what gear was used!
  4. I know that now...wish I'd known it 20+ years ago ?
  5. Little Richard - Long Tall Sally
  6. The Mamas and the Papas - California Dreaming
  7. Def Leppard - Animal I think I deserve extra points for Leppard in this one ?
  8. Not sure about this: there are pros and cons. Pro is you can potentially scale up and down as business needs change (monthly/annual fees); downside is you can't capitalise which affects (Uk at least) how much tax you pay. Where I've worked for >20 years now (3 CFOs in that time so not just one person's approach), the goal has *always* been to buy so it can be capitalised - every last little thing that can be capitalised is (even down to staff time on capital projects). We're gritting our teeth with a new system being implemented over the next few years as it has to be cloud-based, and that investment can't be capitalised (as per HMRC rules). The difference in tax liability is very significant.
  9. Just round the corner from where I live: Somewhat modernised now ?
  10. So why not just leave it in Offset mode (like I do)? If there's an envelope, then by definition, there's an envelope so you can see the change with time and what its value is by holding shift while hovering, and the value in the track widgets reflects the offset. It's only a handful of CbB parameters that are affected by offset mode (volume, pan, send level and send pan).
  11. Motorhead - Eat The Rich And a fantastic (Comic Strip Presents) film if you ever get the chance to see it.
  12. Joe Satriani - Surfing with the Alien
  13. Def Leppard - When Love and Hate Collide
  14. - Open a template project with 2 audio tracks - Insert z3ta+ (FX2) to one of the tracks - Enable MIDI Input in the plug-in's menu - Add a MIDI track and route its output to z3ta+ input; use the virtual keyboard to check it triggers the synth in z3ta+ (as per Craig's article) - Select preset A032 and zero it as per Craig's article, heading "Z3TA+ The Great" - Set amp envelope as per article: - Select Arp002 on arp LFO page: - Import random audio to audio track - Add random MIDI note to MIDI track - Press play Result: silence. Bypass the FX in the FX bin and the audio plays back as expected. From testing, I get sound through the plugin until I select an Arp pattern, at which point it stops passing audio. It kind of works if I select Up/Down as patterns, but not the Arp patterns. Testing a bit more, it would appear all the arps don't work (including in the regular synth VST), so something there is broken - they exist on the disk but... Can you tell me where the arpeggio files live on your machine (they are .cmp files) in case mine have been inadvertently moved? Aha - good old SysInternals Process Monitor to the rescue: C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\z3ta+\Arpeggios - they were in my ProgramData folder...
  15. Manic Street Preachers - Everything Must Go
