Thanks Bjorn. There certainly is.

Thanks DeeringAmps. That is kind of you.

Thanks Nigel, jack c.. Always appreciated ?

Thanks Bapu (as my daughter is half Greek. Your name causes confusion - it means father). I feel I have the official seal of approval ?

Thanks Wookie. That was the vibe (documentary style) I was going for. Thanks Andy. My experience as well. I used a free BBC sound effect off their site. As it seemed to complete the illusion.

New sample packs at Pianobook https://www.pianobook.co.uk/ Illustrating Gibson Harmonics by Tom Parry. English Classic Piano also at Pianobook. And Micah's Choir from LABS at Spitfire Audio. Happy memories of me and my daughter.

I'd say that was their best Ton ever (and I missed it). Thinking Contemporary Drama Toolkit could be in this year. Over on VI-C a few think the new Polaris is Edna Earth re-visited.

Trust Larry to "sniff this one out".............

I don't think there ever was a Mac version.

Continuing the changeover to 64 bit. VoS has re-released the Boot EQ MK 111. (a real cracker of an eq) https://varietyofsound.wordpress.com/downloads/

Thanks treesha (and it has started snowing here in the UK. So I may have been a bit premature!)

In addition. There are hundreds of free patches on the Vital site. https://forum.vital.audio/t/february-2022-free-patch-sharing-thread/8994 They are vital banks. You put them in the vital docs folder then import them from within Vital.

I did exactly the same as you last year (other than the card , got a Presonus instead). I had 3x HD. And over 6 months swapped them out for SSD - Samsung for system drive, and 2x Crucial for samples & content, plus some VST. The difference was HUGE. It's worth the extra to invest in SSD.

Thank you jack c, ?

I'm speechless ! Thank you so much .

Thanks Tom. Left a reply on SC. Suspect the whales bit is due to the ascending gliss on the violin. So can see why you would think that.

And it's NI Player as well. So shows up in the NI Libs tab !

Ha ! I know what you mean. I was asked many years ago to write something in that manner. But 2 hours of pixie flutes was just too much !

A little ode to the coming of spring. Featuring from Pianobook : Organic Orchestra by Venus Theory / Cyclic Transpositions 01 by synthesizerwriter. And Woven Strings by Jon Meyer / LABS - LA Atmos. A bit of hopeful warmth at the end of winter.

Another set of free snapshots have been released for Zero G Elements by Stefano Maccarelli. Nightmares. This now makes 7 sets of snapshots for the instrument (v1.1 and for use in the Time Machine instrument of Elements). https://stefanomaccarelli.com/tutorial/free-presets/ To date the sets are : Dunescapes / Dreamscapes / Dark Scapes / Cinematic Keys / Cinematic Guitars / Destructured / Nightmare. Amounting to hundreds of snapshots.

Stefano Maccarelli (Ethera) has added even more free snapshots for his Kontakt instrument Elements this weekend - Destructred. 90+ snapshots. For use in the Time Machine instrument of Elements. https://stefanomaccarelli.com/tutorial/free-presets/

Yesterday, Stefano Maccarelli (the Etheras guy) released even more free snapshots for his Kontakt instrument Elements (v1.1) - Cinematic Guitars. This now adds up to a couple of hundred (I think) new snapshots - Cinematic Guitars, Cinematic Keys, Dunescapes, Dreamyscapes, Darkscapes. Thay are to be used within the Time Machine instrument of Elements. And are available at one place now instead of spread across various videos he made. https://stefanomaccarelli.com/tutorial/free-presets-for-elements-ethera-gold/

By the way. Stefano Maccarelli (the creator of the Ethera products) has also made available hundreds of free presets for his Elements instrument as well (v1.1). They are availabe to d/load on his YT page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdJRItg17zQVJEJMKuBL5iQ There are 4 sets so far, Cinematic Keys, Dune, Darkscapes, Dreamyscapes. Find the links under the Elements vids.

Thanks Andy. Yes, my pieces are usually longer. But this was a demo for the Pianobook community so needed to be shorter (not that,that will stop me!).

I'm waiting for Spitfire Audio to produce their first vehicle!. A three wheeler "on the edge of falling over", built at Air studios. Paul will be "vey excited" as he drives off to the supermarket. (if you know Spitfire, you'll get the references)
