  1. I think this was used on that hit song "Rolling in the Deep"

    Cop The Feel

    Forgive me, Father Bapu, it's been 9 days since I've bought anything musically related. My new year's resolution standing strong, 9 days in.
  3. Congrats on following my time-tested method . . . the strategic placement of clutter to enhance wave dispersion. I looked at your pics and I think the wall behind your main desk is still blank and too reflective. Who wants to help him pull down that monitor bridge, hang up a curtain or better yet a carpet with a cool design, and then put everything back up again??? It's not as good as foam, but this rug is 100 bucks, is 5x8, and would dull the splash from the wall behind your monitors: https://rugs.com/multi-5x8-theia-area-rug-6281934?rt=bbsize Can't guarantee it wasn't woven in a sweatshop somewhere, but it would look hella cool up there. You could also put it up kind of bunched on the wall, with a few intentional undulations, for better dispersal characteristics.
  4. I love the concept but the more I want to say "ooooooh!" I end up saying "Aaaaaaaaaahhhh" no. It's just not flexible enough for what they are charging, in my useless opinion.
  5. Knopfler's guitar solos at the end of Dire Straits' "Telegraph Road" and "It Never Rains" come to mind . . .
  6. Fyi it appears to be the digital version only.
  7. I read this as "McCartney ill" and was checking in to see if the Walrus was doing poorly. Assuming we can really know who wrote what in that excellent team, I would disagree respectfully, I think you don't have enough Lennon-only songs to stack up against Blackbird, Hey Jude, Yesterday, Let it Be, the Long and Winding Road, Eleanor Rigby, And I Love Her, I Saw Her Standing There, Eight Days a Week, I'll Follow the Sun, Drive My Car, Fool on the Hill, Back in the USSR, When I'm 64, a ton of the Sgt Pepper and Abbey Road ones, Penny Lane, and even some Wings songs like Let 'em In and that James Bond one. Michelle is I think brilliant from the standpoint of arrangement and chord structure, and it might be 20th on the list. You could maybe say that Lennon rocked a little harder and was less mindful of pop or jazz than Paul was. Here's a nice list: https://www.google.com/amp/s/faroutmagazine.co.uk/paul-mccartney-beatles-every-song-hes-written-playlist/amp/ Now who wants to talk Federer, Nadal, or Djokovic?
  8. To post these criticism puns takes a lot of gill. Unmitigated gill.
  9. So Lars put up a bongos deal in Deals, and I diligently searched alternatives. Sort of like "The King's Microphones" only not.
  10. 1. Sounds great 2. I use it a lot 3. The developers seem very nice 4. There is a major hang-up trying to get it to consistently export the midi so you can edit in the DAW. Some days it will, some days it won't. This is a royal pain in the yarbles. 5. From a GUI color scheme standpoint, it's one of the best of all time! 6. In Kontakt you have to scroll up and down a lot because there is too much Drumvolution real estate for the Kontakt window to accommodate. Again, yarbles. It comes down to the sound, and for a fun electronic drum palette, it just sounds amazing. A bit like a wonderful old car that you love but you can't start it unless you pound on a specific spot on the dashboard.
  11. I find the concept of this post offensive, and I think it should be deleted.
  12. Very relaxing, a cool shanty for a cold Winter morning. thanks! -Tom
  13. Just great. thanks for making it 1986 again, when I frequently sampled the likes of Fattburger, Hiroshima, and Spyro Gyra at the San Diego venue "Humphrey's by the Bay" . . killer mix and great guitar throughout, what a great listen! cheers, -Tom
  14. The song is nice and simple and heartfelt. Panning is great across the field. I'm wondering what that tiny little soft snare hit is adding? I think you could get rid of it. those people with younger ears could tell us what that harmonica is doing above 13kHz - my guess is, it's a bit strong up there, but it's just a guess because I cain't hear dat no more. nice one! cheers, -Tom
  15. I've analyzed the negotiated terms of fishing rights between the UK and the various EU fishing fleets, and determined the loser . . . . . . it's the fish.
  16. I highly recommend the fretless bass and the duduk. And if you own a business and buy before the end of the year, your purchase might come with a nice tax duduktion.
  17. Best purchase was the Garritan Yamaha Abbey Road CFX piano for 159. All other pianos have been sent to a lovely farm upstate. (Except for Pianoteq, which we left on a hillside to die of exposure) . . . and a happy New Year to the Deals forum!
  18. Some nicely extended range for your primal screams . . .
  19. Please say hello to Seigfried, Tristan, James, and Helen for me! The Dales is on my bucket list . . . enjoy!
  20. I'm sure this is pretty great! But I see another mystery bundle every time I open up my Samples drive.
  21. Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays to all you good people wherever you are. May your corner of the global neighborhood remain healthy and prosperous in 2021!
