  1. Sheesh! Spitfire's Originals are so good they'd be a bargain at twice the price.
  2. I can't imagine going back and revising long finished songs. I try not to be like Wordsworth who couldn't stop messing with the Prelude or Whitman and his perpetual revisions of Leaves of Grass.
  3. You're really overthinking it. I can't tell you how many guitarists have a delay pedal in front of a distorted amp.
  4. What's to elaborate? You created a song, mixed it & got it sounding how you want. You exported it as a WAV file and it plays back in mono in various media players. You brought your exported WAV back into CW and it sounds identical to the original project. Think about it for a minute; its kinda obvious.
  5. Use it for the old bathroom reverb chamber trick. Then it will be music related.
  6. What on Earth are you talking about? A pentagram is a five pointed star polygon like this:
  7. Snowflake. Maybe I realized you did offer a suggestion. My mistake. But you do seem to follow me around taking a an awful lot of offense to comments I make to other people.
  8. Which I did. Fighting with 32bit abandonware just isn't something I consider productive. But then, I'm more interested in making music than conquering IT challenges. Thus my solution is to ditch it and move on. I am woefully not well informed regarding chiptune music and the subtleties and intricate nuances of the genre so am unable to discern what might be considered authentic or not. Therefore I shall refrain from making any specific recommendation other than "Don't waste time with 32bit abandonware," which is something I can do with confidence.
  9. I'm going on the assumption that the OP has internet access and knows how to use a browser. Should I go over to his house and install it for him too? Good God! My advice is to not waste time fighting with 32bit abandonware. Maybe you need to be less sensitive on others' behalf. He's a big boy. I'm sure he can find something suitable.
  10. I seriously doubt the Bakers are going to waste any effort into getting 32bit abandonware working. If you just can't live without crappy 80's video game sounds there must be some 64 bit VSTs out there that do work.
  11. It is not a bug. That plugin is 32bit abandonware last updated in 2007. Ditch it and move on. Not worth the trouble.
  12. Engineers who use a bottom mike on the snare spend a lot of time and effort to get the positioning correct. I have gotten good results from using a modified version of the Recorderman technique. https://www.wikiaudio.org/recorderman-technique/ I moved the OH mikes farther away b/c I'm afraid of whacking one of my AKG 170s. I think that also makes the cymbals less drastic if I get too excited.
  13. I had no idea. I've been using my Focusrite 18i20 for years. Parts of these discussions should be collated and made a sticky.
  14. Frankly, I think they should be more forthright and honest about what is really needed to get good results rather than pushing what you can "get by" with.
  15. Perhaps. I think I would have the track recorded quicker. The proper interface solves both of those issues in one swipe. A real ASIO driver and no Bluetooth. Except for fiddle-f***ing around with latency, clicks and pops and ASIO4ALL bandaids.... Shouldn't have any trouble dropping another $100 on a proper interface. I want to head off the troubles before they begin. "Ultimate excellence lies not in winning every battle, but in defeating the enemy without ever fighting." Sun Tzu Friendly sparring. This might go down better with a beer to chase it. I don't like to recommend suboptimal solutions when I know a better one is within reach. By far the most audio issues of all kinds I see are people using the onboard chip or some substandard interface with ASIO4ALL instead of a proper driver. Very little from people who have a decent interface. So of course I go in that direction. ?
  16. I didn't know they even made hard drives that small any more.
  17. I would never argue with anyone who said that music was the best part of going to church!
  18. Just make sure whoever you pick carries his gun in a good holster instead of leaving it laying around! ?
