    Have a great time!!!

    There are a lot of good Filipino musicians. I worked on cruise ships for 3 years, and the half dozen Filipino bands I worked the ships with played American/English and Spanish music better than any other Asian band I've ever heard.

    Notes

    That's very true.  I've seen quite a few Filipino cover bands and they're just naturally talented bunch.....was very impressed with the musicianship.

    Thanks Mesh, much appreciated :)  I must check out the songs forum again soon! Have you and the Forum Monkeys been doing much lately?

    Actually we haven't been working on anything lately. I think Bapu & Daryl have been doing some solo or other colab stuff. I've also been busy working on a solo project (taking forever), but if it's half way decent, may post it in the songs forum.  

    Have you posted anything in there?

    I haven't used YouTube in a while for uploads but I will let you know when there's something  worthwhile there (unless you want to check out my covers under the  pseudonym AfterGlow on the Cover-in-a-week channel - see sig).

    That's some very good stuff there!! :)

    You're Welcome Mesh , i will do amp sim covering more often because i'm tired of hearing only metal when i want to check amp sim videos .... those guyz are killas , but too much heavy tones .... to not say pretty often ....

     

    Will do under controls of you GTR guyz around .... ;) so don't hesitate to chime in !

    And if some have DI recordings you want me to do video on (with credits of course) , i will happily !!

    *

    Want to do oine on IK Amplitibe but if i done 35 min on 2 amps imagine ...lol this will be  a Netfix serie lol !!

    That's so true....most amp sims do a lot of metal. Although I like metal, it doesn't show the full range of what the sims can do (which is what I'd really like to see/hear).

    Another thing I'd like to see in these vids is what audio interface/DI they're using and/or anything else in the signal path before using the amp sim. Most reviews rarely show that.

    Anyway, looking forward to more of your vids. :)

  5. Wow ZT, now that's what I call a full review!! Thanks so much for taking the time to write this and this certainly looks to be a good tool to have in the toolbox. 

    Now that you got to 'get under the hood', do you think you'll be using it on a regular basis?

  6. Whether it's popular/relevant or not, I'm very thankful to Meng & Co. for not only rescuing Cakewalk from it's downfall, but regularly improving CbB. I do have a couple of other DAWS, but CbB is what I know best and can quickly get my musical noises recorded without hassle. Having regularly invested in Sonar since V3, it's extremely nice to have it for free. ;)

    So do you like it Dave

    I'll take a wild guess and say yes. Well, there's also this that Dave said:

    "I'm talking about B3-X, their Hammond emulator. Not kidding, it's the best I've heard yet - and I've got a diskfull of 'em to compare."

    You can get those cheap $29 cans that studios buy in bulk for handing out to drummers and bass players.

    That quacked me up!

     

    I agree with you about being subjected to their experiments and H-phones might be the right ticket. I still might get those speakers that abacab recommended as backup.

    Appreciate the replies gents. :)

    Just got free pedals from mercuriall , i don't even feel the need to authorise the pedals ensonced gave me for now 

    Be sure to try them

    I've heard good things about their free pedals (IIRC the chorus being a very good one). Haven't used any of their stuff, but will download their demo's.....I feel a GAS  build up.  9_9

  10. As some of you may know I recently got a 2nd PC for general family use and will also be using it as a DAW (just for my children to play with...not using to mix anything serious, but rather to just hear whatever is being played through it). 

    Would general PC speakers work for this or what other options do I have (besides getting studio monitors)? For an audio interface, I'll be using a 1st gen Focusrite 2i4.

    Headphones might be a good option....having to consider the inexperienced musical notes (noises) that we'll all have to hear. ;)

     

  11. I'm by no means a keyboardist, but do love the sound of IK's B3 and working on a track that uses a B3 (NI's). When it goes on sale, I can (possibly) justify buying it as I like to have good quality instruments (even If I can't play them well lol). Are there any other decent B3's you can recommend? I also have the one that came with AIR Music bundle, but haven't really put it through the paces (yet).

     

    Currently, I'm slowly working on getting good tones out of BIAS Amp2/FX2 which has so many excellent options to tweak....it can also be a bit overwhelming. Always trying to educate myself in finding info on getting the best out of amp sims using hardware/software.  The struggle is real....  ;)

    Hey Mesh, I bought it but haven't used it yet in a composition. It looks to have quite a few complexities and consequently the learning curve to get the most out of it is probably longer than something like InstaChord/InstaScale/Riffer, but then again it can do more.  

    Anyway, I'm far too busy with GAS ? I'll let you know when I use it in earnest! 

    ....and they said you can fully grasp it from the 20 min video. ?

    Thanks Zinc!!
