  1. As a marketing and brand strategist, I think even if InMusic created a stellar BFD4 -- before I have grandchildren (my kids are presently teenagers) , I think they've done so much damage to the brand it would have a difficult time finding success. BFD3 has been around for more than a decade, and I don't think it's possible to do a thread about it on any forum or social media platform without hearing horror stories from past users. I think the less than impressive BFD Player also didn't give true believers the hope they desired. I'm a SD3 and AD2 user that would love to see a serious option to SD3 that would bring prices down. But every indication has been that InMusic is incapable of delivering a product anywhere near that level. My negative experiences with their software and support leads me to be very hesitant to buy anything that InMusic owns and I'm well aware that is not a rare perspective.
  2. A talented dev, who's very customer focused, and simply a nice person.
  3. My mind stored that information too. Just think of all the useful information it could have stored instead of which developers have CP-70 libraries or modeled instrument! I own the XLN Addictive Keys CP-70, but find it very meh.
  4. AudioThing is offering 81% off on The Orb formant filter plugin for Win, Mac & Linux - €/$9 (reg. €/$49) - until July 28. https://www.audiothing.net/effects/the-orb/
  5. Hey thanks for sharing that. I LOVE the demos I've heard of both Capitol Chambers and Sound City Studios. What are your thoughts in comparing and contrasting the two? I'll eventually buy both for sure, but I'm 60% sure I'll start with Sound City because I suspect I'll use it more (because I record a lot of heavy rock songs).
  6. Reading. Watching. Doing my best to learn from Starship Krupa's posts. Just thought I'd share so that you're aware that these conversations are useful to those lurking, even though most don't post comments. @Starship Krupa I'm going to research the plugin based on your comment. Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts.
  7. That's too bad. I love Abbey Road Chambers, but CPU usage is pretty bad. I was hoping that this and Capitol Chambers (which also sounds great to my ears) wouldn't be as bad on CPU. Oh well, I've got to do the demo first, I suppose. But seeing UAD plugins at these prices is extremely compelling.
  8. So true. It should be the forum motto.
  9. A few years ago -- during the pandemic -- my son was enrolled in driving school, but he ended up not completing the course. At the time, the pandemic inspired me to attempt to play music again, two decades after tendinitis stopped me from being able to play professionally or even at all for more than a few minutes without pain. So, I thought I'd try playing really simple songs, and Gary Numan's Cars would be appropriate and amusing. As my son finally completed his driving lessons, took his driving test, and received his driver's license yesterday, I thought it would be appropriate to go back to this song and make some improvements. I significantly modified the drums and added a compressor. I brought up the vocal -- something I'm usually reluctant to do because I don't have a very good voice (but it works on this song). I changed the overall mix a bit and brought up a couple of the synths and added a small part that I think helps the song. Anyhow, I think the result is a much better version of the cover. But I'll let you be the judge. I welcome your advice on the mix and any constructive criticism.
  10. Thanks. Once I get the word from you, I can buy with confidence!
  11. UAD Sound City is also $34.66. I think I'm going to get it. That's Waves plugin pricing for a superb plugin without the WUP scheme (scam). @cclarry I take it there are no discount codes that worm with this, right? I have yet to demo Sound City, but I will now. A lot of our community members have posted really good things about it. https://everyplugin.com/sound-city-studios.html
  12. I already gave your post a thanks, but I thought you invested enough time and did such a thorough job of explaining the utility of the plugin that it warranted a thank you message. I sincerely appreciate it. As always, Wookiee is as good as they come, and I want to thank you for your helpful post.
  13. This is what I don't understand, is the value that you were unfamiliar with the mixolydian scale before using Scaler? Does it provide any value beyond that? To cut to the chase. I understand scales and modes, and basic music theory (I had around a year's worth of training). I know that for mixolydian, you just flatten the 7th of a major scale a half step (e.g, in C major, you lower the B a half step to Bb). Considering that, do you think Scaler 2 still has value -- for example, it helps in some way with creative experimentation-- or is it mainly aimed at people without knowledge of music theory (e.g., showing user the notes in chords beyond triads, showing various scales and modes, etc)?
  14. This is pretty interesting. The demo, at points has a very Sufjan Steven's vibe (he's always said that he goes after a bad junior high school band vibe).
