In my experience, GUI resizes never work well when you want elements to be smaller. They were made for people that have 4K displays.

They offer a 30 day trial of their Total Bundle, which also had a now removed option of extending that for 30 more days if you signed their newsletter. Sure thing. I don't wanna compare it to Pro-Q3, but the Fab Filter plugin has everything on a single screen. I did fiddle with MEqualizer for a bit and you do javet a lot of tweakability...except that band menu blocks the EQ view and you have to use that atrocious num pad to enter values manually. Eease of use and intuitiveness are not the same thing. Every single time tou have to rely on a manual or guide to use a product represents a failure of UX. I dont care if a plugin is complex as long as documentation for it exists. Even military vehciles have manuals. One practical example. I was looking for an alternative to doing Leslie effects real time, since the Leslie in Amplitube 4 and T-Racks don't work for me. I loaded up madbee's maDulation and had a fairly good sound in 5 minutes. Then I tried MPhaser. Not only could I not get the same sound out of it, but some of the knobs didn't seem to do anything, no master where they were. The LFO would also have this abrupt click that even their rotary preset couldn't get out. At one point, I needed an audio meter to check for peaks, I decided to load MAudioMeter. Not only could I not get what I wanted, I couldn't even figure how to make it do so. Even MNotepad has those weird quirks. You'd think all you have to do is give all keystrokes to the plugin and start typing but that would be too convenient. You have to double click on the text box to man another text box appear on top of it and then you can type your text. Who wants this?

I don't know which version of REAPER you're using that has that feature. The nag screen is always there the first time you run it and it also lists how long you used the program and how many times you ran it.

And that's the only demo available on the site. What if you want to test the other products?

Good luck getting LV2 plugins working on Windows.

Sampletank CS also has that feature across all versions. At least Saturation Knob comes as a ProChannel module that never expires. The fun thing with iZotope is free products that need license keys. A support guy literally had to give me a key for Imager 2 because there's no way to register it now that iZotope has that product portal.

You could of course reproduce these using synthesis...

I don't need the help of external gear to make my mixes sound horrible. I'm already a natural at that.

It's not like I have at least 4 SSL bus compressor emulations not counting the ProChannel one or anything...

One cool undocumented feature about Waveform is that you can run out of activations on the free version.

If you have to ask money before the product is used each time, either your product is crap or the money is more important than the product itself.

Only thing J-Bridge does you can't do in other bridges is running 64 bit plugins in 32 bit DAWs.

Both versions are paid.

Which such a hardware, why are you not considering something like a PCIe interface or Dante?

One idea would be having the mouse wheel control that slope much like you do with the Q parameter in many digital EQ plugins these days.

Only thing I can think when I look at Zenbeats is "Those touch elements sure occupy a lot of my screen space. How do I turn them off?"

It's also advised to use a higher sample rate when your audio will be pitched down at some stage.

I would be very careful with comparing any company in regards to support with Avid. It took them 8 years to add PDC to ProTools and they were vindictive about it, because the next upgrade that had it was more expensive. Or their free DAW which has 23 plugins, of which 12 are features all other DAWs have built in. While CbB is rough around the edges, it's still better than many of the free offerings out there.

The interesting thing about the AMD FX CPUs is that they aged well, unlike their Intel counterparts. You can still get somewhat of a decent performance with a FX8370 or 8350 with sufficiently fast RAM and a ssd.

And that beat is wrong. But he's not the only one in that regard. He follows the usual adage of "user interface is just a beauty tack on top of functionality". Don't get me wrong, the plugin I used to get a less boring snare sound did the job very well, but others I tried I couldn't even make a sound difference. If you want an example of user interface done right, that example is FabFilter. Not only the interface is laid out in a way you can understand what it does, their video demonstrations actually teach you how to use their product, instead of being a sales pitch pretending to be a tutorial.

That would be the only way for people to care about Syntronik in the first place. A preset machine that gets in your way every time you want to create your own sounds. And if you load them into Sampletank, you can't edit the parameters. Even without the ability of editing presets when you don't own the full version of the synth, Analog Lab is more flexible.

Most of your time will be spent waiting for stuff to render, patching stuff in and out, recalling settings for each session and dealing with ground loop issues.

It's a ProTools masterclass on how to use SAW Studio with Andrew Scheps using CLA plugins.

My guess is that all Neural DSP plugins are optimized for Intel CPUs. I was starting to suspect why they were so slow to respond on my system, despite a good portion of the tones being reproducible in other plugins that used a fraction of ethe CPU.

So, they went from being free with and purchased a few days ago to just plain freeware. That was fast.
