Yes...throughput on an SSD is far less constrained that on a physical platter drive...

Yes!

This is the answer I was hoping for!  Thanks, guys.

Question: My Kontakt libraries are all stored on an external HD.  If I put them on an external SSD would they load faster?

I'm glad someone finally gave Louie the recognition it deserves.  Brilliant video!

So far, after 10 years of being on this forum, I have never scooped The King.  One day I'll learn . . . .

Just in case the 30,000 speaker ir's you have aren't enough:

Seacow Teaser Pack

This is the new free pack which includes 13 IRs from upcoming cab packs.

The new Cab Packs will have 4 different speakers per cab, 15+ mics including ribbons, dynamics and condensers.

All the IR Files on this pack are 48 kHz 24bit Minimum
phase aligned wav files.

I thought I as the only one.  You are dead on target.  I'm end my email today.

The headphones are sold out.
I just tried.

That didn't take long!

I’ve downloaded the freebies over the years, and there are number of them I really like. Nevertheless, I’ve resisted going down the full rabbit hole, and will probably continue to resist. For me, it is really creatively liberating that I don’t have to worry about CPU issues with  my current setup. To reintroduce some of those problems is just not worth it for me.

I can appreciate that.  While I love the Nebula sound, when I start adding instances it absolutely clobbers my cpu.

Looks kinda cool. Shame there's no demo (understandably as it's a pre-release sale); what's the general opinion about Audio Assault's guitar plugins?

Me too.  Anyone?

The King is not just back, but he's back with a vengeance and making up for lost time!!  Life is good.

I feel a little silly postponing the update over a mere fifty bucks' difference

I think about it this way: $50 is two trips to the Mount Fuji sushi bar.

It's good to see you back here.  I hope you're doing well.

I've still yet to go the third party route for Nebula options.

Some of the third party libraries are really good.  I really like Timp.  He's been running a 20% off sale which makes his stuff very reasonably priced.  He also offers all his libraries in 44/48/88/94KHZ which I find helpful.  AlexB's stuff is excellent as well, but a tad more expensive.  Hidden symmetry posted a link to azzimov's skins, which are exceptional and well worth a look.

Welcome back!!

Some good stuff comes with Nebula 4 that makes it worth a look.  You get a ton of reverbs as well as a few compressors and eq's.  To me, Nebula reverbs and eq's are pretty amazing.  There are also a few third party Nebula developers like Timp and Cupwise who offer additional components for around $25-35.  Analog in the Box and CD SoundMaster also offer great libraries that are a bit more expensive.   Also, Henry Olanga's giant libraries are now free.

This is all new to me, but it's fascinating where technology is headed.  It makes me wonder where we'll be when quantum computers get here.

We're wandering in the wilderness.

I don't have this product myself. But what I have heard of it does sound really quite nice for something in this price range. If you'd like a good example of how it sounds in action I would recommend checking out Simeon Amburgey's 'First Look' video published on YouTube on June 13 of this year. Love your work, Simeon!

Thanks for the heads-up on that.

Quick Overview

Signature Grand is a Model D 9-foot Concert Grand recorded in a beautiful hall/scoring stage. The instrument naturally excels in film and classical applications, but the user is able to craft the sound to be suitable to nearly any style of playing. 

What makes our piano different? Our instrument is bursting with three-dimensional realism due to a unique sampling and scripting process that captures the beautiful early reflections of the recording space. By blending two microphone perspectives, the user is able to find the perfect balance between close and room microphones, as well as controlling the overall ambiance of the space through our "releases" controls. 

Signature Grand is a deeply sampled instrument containing over 3000 samples in 24-bit, 10 dynamic levels per note, two microphone perspectives, and multi-velocity mechanical noises. Advanced features include repedaling, half-pedaling and various sympathetic resonances. Over 60 presets designed by Emmy Award-winning composer, Garth Neustadter are included covering film, classical, jazz, and pop styles. Designed for the full version of Kontakt 5 or 6 (Download Only). The instrument will not work with the free version of Kontakt. 

T-Comp was designed to provide versatile compression without impacting your transients!
Preserving transients is one of the reasons so many prefer to use parallel compression.
T-Comp allows to dial in how much of the original transient is retained allowing you to preserve the integrity of the original signal without parallel routing!  You can get it now only for $7.00 USD!

On my machine Kontakt created it's own folders when I installed it.  Here's the path:

C>Program Files>Native Instruments>Kontakt

Check and see if NI did that for you too.  If it did just point a VST scan per Nigel MacKay's direction (above) and it ought to pop up for you.

FWIW I couldn't get to work in either CW or Studio One, so whether they'll admit it or not, it's not a problem that's DAW specific.

I had the same problem with Bias Amp 2.  I contacted support they sort of shrugged.  I took a refund and may try it again in the future.

That was excellent!  Thanks for taking the time and the trouble.

Best line: "if you have a bass don't ever sell it.  Sell your house, sell you car, sell yourself into *****, but don't sell you bass".

"Couple of kewl deals with Plugin Alliance (sorry if this was already posted)"

Whenever I list a deal I always start with the assumption it's already been posted, but I figure a little redundancy is better than folks missing a good opportunity.
