Thanks for the info Mesh. Looks like the updates are coming thick and fast - good to know that the dev is on the case!

Know what you mean Matthew. CbB (and SPlat) used to take two minutes to start for me. I tried lots of different things to fix it but never got to the bottom of it until one month a new version of CbB came out with a "fix" for slow startup. Ever since then it is the fastest starting DAW I own (around 2 to 3 seconds) although Reaper and Studio One are no slouches either.

Thanks for confirming Matthew, yes looks like it. I have posted on the support forum about it. I haven't tried it in other DAWs yet though.

Is anyone else seeing this with the VST3 version of Scaler 2... New project in CbB. Insert Scaler 2 VST3 and use it, drag some MIDI etc then save the project. Close CbB and try to re-open the project. I just get an endless "Opening Project Loading Synth Scaler 2..." message and the project doesn't open. Works fine with the VST2 version of Scaler 2. I will report it on the bugs forum.

Resistance is futile! VL is pretty decent actually. I still prefer Vocal Rider but it's a decent alternative.

Scaler 2 working fine in CbB here! BTW my PluginBoutique account still says it's v2.02 but when you download it it is actually v2.04.

Nice update! Thanks for the heads-up @Richard Portelli ...downloading now...

Ok, you can get a demo from here ... https://jstuff.wordpress.com/jbridge/

Yes, the only way I have found to stop this is to use Jbridge.

True dat ^^^^

Amber is the only one I'm missing (apart from Carbon which doesn't interest me). I've been waiting for a decent "complete my bundle" offer from Ujam for ages. I really like Silk for both the sound of the nylon guitar (and options to vary it) and the wealth of patterns available including some 6/8, 3/4 and even 5/4 and 7/8 ones.

Wow! I was gonna get it anyway but great deal and early! Bought. Thanks lawajava ?

Cheers Larry! Didn't see this one coming. That sibilant detection alone is going to save me a ton of time.

Just heard on John Lehmkuhl's weekly Unify livestream that he heard from an Arturia contact that they will be including OB-XA in V collection 8 but wanted to give folks access to something new ahead of the release. The contact said that if you buy OB-XA now they will discount the upgrade cost to VC8 (presumably by the amount you pay now, IDK). Here's the bit where he mentions it... https://youtu.be/sG9Le3k7WMg?t=4395 He also shared that they will be doing a Unify patch library using Arturia synths!

For anyone who has PluginGuru Unify you can also get some free BBC DiscoverStation BONUS patches for Unify which makes use of the BBC Discover library. To see what they do you can watch the latest livestream from around this point --> https://youtu.be/sG9Le3k7WMg?t=911 The free Unify patches dropbox link is in the text area below the video.

Hey Aidan, I use Groove3 a lot (that and Udemy) and they have quite a few Arturia courses. Eli Krantzberg is also one of my favourite instructors (he's also just done a video for EzBass on YouTube). The Arturia ones though seem to be mainly Tyler Coffin...

Thanks, I had an issue with v1 not handling my controller knobs correctly but that is fixed in v2.

Only in Cars.

Ah OK. Just to be clear I got the same offer as anyone else with VC6...

Not sure what you mean TS. Yes the pricing is consistent with their recent sale but I also passed on that (although it was a close thing). I have decent synths coming out of my ears, so I guess I'm just waiting for a better deal. Maybe see what they come up with for VC 8.

Pretty good! My price as a V Collection 6 owner is 149 EUR. If it was 99 I would do it but I will wait - been waiting to get EZ Bass and that's where my money's going for now

I have the full version of Rapid Composer but I'm also trying the demo of Melodya. I like some of the results I'm getting in the demo but I will probably wait for the RapidComposer update and just use the Melody Editor inside it (the MIDI can always be exported anyway).

Ah yes, that's correct. I have hopefully made that clearer in my post. Thanks!

http://www.musicdevelopments.com/melodya.html As I understand it this functionality will be included in RapidComposer V4 (full version). At least it is in the beta release candidate. In RapidComposer v4 it is called the Melody Editor but essentially it's the same thing. Melodya is the VST version for use outside of RapidComposer. https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=7698399#p7698399

I had the same thoughts after watching that video lawajava and I'm trying and liking the CE demo at the moment. Even the demo comes with a ton of presets and that step envelope really adds something. Makes me wonder though whether Mr Carbone is working on a Carbon Electra v2 as the original seems to be dated around 2015 so could be due a refresh.
