Thanks!

Same here. That is why I asked for a comparison between them.

If i knew i would have grabbed this one , not the weiss , because it's way more cpu optimised , brands tends to forgot that we have a lot of brands and tools in the arsenal , and think their stuff can be the only thing cpu heavy ....

so if anybody want just an eq i think it's exellent , if anybody want the combo , the weiss channel strip is superb at the expense of some cycle .

Also one thing annoyed some people (not me) in the weiss C 1 version is the shleves curves witch are like the Manley Passive EQ (witch i love) aka Shelving and cut witch accentuate the perception , and i love it ... some people hated it since it wasn't possible to deactivate this behavior in C1 

Basically if you boost at 50 Hz you will get a cut just after .... kinda like the Pultec trick .. 

Concept :

If you boost 50 hz by 6 db , you perceived the 6 db but might have some phase eq's ....

If you boost 50 hz by 3 db and cut by 3 , you will have this fx perceived with less phase behavior and even more pronouced fx since the 3db cut is also affecting your perception of what's ,next in freq   

By the way i own all C1 Channels strip , don't hesitate to ask here

I own the gambit for C1 and the eq is superb , compressor also , i needed a mastering grade C1 channel and it delivers  but man this is cpu heavy , i grabbed it to put it on my master during mixing but i might sell it cause it's too heavy .. sonically , possibility in the top 3 best sounding Eq / Comp itb ...

sounds great but cpu hog !!

exact it's on singles .... so nothing interseting exept for pigments eventually or if ya need some specific

SC seems another terrible plugin manager...

After attempt to update plugins I have for short time an error with info error : false... Running as admin doesn't help either. So another regression in such simple program...

And every time when run it gives annoying info about need for ilok component. And of course, no any option to select what type of plugins and where to install...

Grrr...

Even when installed it keeps telling me not installeed or stuff like that , the old one was simple and working ...

Couldn't agree more, Zo (about everything you said!?).  I said much the same on the user group forum on Facebook (the ONLY reason I have to go to Facebook).  The rigs are OK but they shouldn't walk away from the core offerings - way too much competition out there.  I think there's some good stuff coming in a few days.  But don't quote me on it.

I m pretty sure they will update the sonic , but the interfacing , specially with a product aimed for musician jamming , should be considered secondary ...

Looks like you need to take your amps apart and solder loose wires back in place.

Blasphemy! There ain't no perfect tone. Don't even try looking for it, use what you've got!

Mademoiselle is always right !! I can t compete ahahha 

Mores seriously , not super happy with maintenace from them , smring age coul be superb , markbass also thu could have been refined at least zoom not looking a 90 ' type of 1024 * 768 resolution screen ... 

preset management mic selection ect , everythingvis aging not so well ... they should gibe their tools the attention theybdeseves , i understand the need to create new stuff for new sales , but i swear that redesigning old product would have not only consolidated users base , but also created new sales ...prior to stuff like neural and ik , now it s another story as the bar is even higherc!!

This isn't as straightforward as it seems.

Many of the MCU emulations send more than one button press message with the pressing of one of their buttons.  So it's not a case of just mapping one button to another.

I guess it's possible to write your own control surface DLL to deal with this (feel free - the SDK is here:  https://github.com/Cakewalk/Cakewalk-Control-Surface-SDK ), but other than that the only other route is AZController

I think , this is just the 360 integration and the ability to customise stuff via it and rename .... 360 takes all possible control of the daw , i think this is it ... but i might be wrong , anyway i ain t tripping  ... i do think for someone using sonar that the vs 700 is the beast to have unless form factor is a problem (witch is why i m selling mine , under than that i m loving since day one ) i almost decided to open it and take part to built a custom smaller unit , but it s a tuff journey and time is something that become more rare than never.

The more I've played with AT5 and compared it to PA Brainworx and THU, I'm not as enthusiastic as I was the week it came out.  There are some massive improvements and its won me over in a few areas (Fenders & Leslie) but I'm back to my old habits and REALLY looking forward to this THU release next week.

 

My issue with th3 thu , is that you really feel the static convo sampling , meaning that reaction to their additionnal knobs eq , tone , what ever on their amp is ridiculous , you can crank one knob and have a marginal move in tone ... 

unlike a real amp or in ik imho , if the tone you re looking for is close to nominal values it s ok , but if not , prepare for a a foght including cab , mic change , pedals ect ...

I kinda feel bad for them ....

No Cakewalk support

It s just pre mapping you can do your own in sonar and mackie control surface plugin ...

Never heard the comp , but the eq is something dope ... 

i skipped the api because it wasn t as expected (hence no video on. It from me ) ,curious about this one ... i will keep you guyz informed at first contact ,...

Lowest I’ve seen on this eq was $199 late last year.  Even intro was $299 which was crazy expensive. With voucher seems a bit more reasonable.  So far has always been excluded from $29 sales, etc.  I’ve been ignoring it because of cost.  Do you have any thoughts on it Zo or anyone else?

It s great features wise but not specially better , i jumped on the better maker that i  really somthing unik ...

The amek sounds smooth also , but as a owner of chandler , elysia ,millenia eq ,i didn t felt the need for it .... 

Just 149 ? Larry , you good ? 

What is interface unification ? I stopped using those because they were to tiny ...

Damn i thought th3 .... desperatly waiting for gui updates and rafinement ....

Homeless or people in direct need imho  , actual situation is so critical for a lot of people that this could help well some people in basic needs ...

Thks Larry ...
