Finally, Installed!

ya, Installed!

After following the advice here: Complete was priced at $340 (I had 10 credits), so $330. Total FX was priced at $263, so $253 after credits. I went with TotalFX. Then Complete was $11. So $264 vs $340 to be a forever Complete owner.

Was looking for some LD mics to use for drum "room" mics. Just bought 2 of these.

Now it does for me two (or three?)

Gone Baby, Gone. Back to $199.

Ditto

I've had Olympus (purchased as Venus & Mars) for quite some time now.

Chas Chandler on bass (who went on to manage Jimi Hendrix)

That performance will be 56 years old tomorrow (18 June 2023) and it's still timeless in my mind and ears. And that last plunk after the song on the guitar is fab.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm a Dylan fan through and through but.....

O it do stuff, I soar it inna vid

Previously got 'em all, so.... Iinstalled! ? Good plugs.

What it do?

Spinner. I'm not a studio for hire, so how long it takes to load a lib is never a concern for me.

IMO, the biggest drawback to using BFD is once you install an add on pack it's a mystery, at least to me, what it's called (whackiest naming convention from within the program). Maybe I'm just used to how ToonTrack, Slate and Addictive do it. You add a Ludwig <kit> and it's name Ludwig <kit>, simples.

AFAIK Drew (the original dev on BFD) is still in charge of development. He may or may not be hindered by InMusic management but he is at least making an effort to keep the product alive.

It works, until it doesn't. Given that nearly all songs I'm involved with use real human in-person live drums paled for the song, I rarely use any of my drum libraries except for the "demo" to have a sense of drums being there, not as a guide for the drummer, that is for them to decide what is best for the song.

Installed!

I store all my libraries on a single 16TB drive (E). I only have 6.5 TB free now. I also store "archived" Cakewalk project files there too. As well, I put my sync'd Dropbox folders there too. Wherever an installer allows me to declare a downloads folder I specify that drive with a unique folder name ("NI Downloads", "Toontrack Downloads", "IKM downloads" etc.), otherwise I keep individual VST/VSTi installers on my 4tb NAS drive and run the installer from there. That drive only has 526GB of free space. I have a secondary 4tb NAS drive that has 1.5tb free.

Installed!

Life's Been Good So Far

I have the EQ only and Premp/EQ version in UAD.

Bummer, can't stack this with my $75 voucher and the automatic $50 off (previous Lindell owner).

Yup, and I got my new $75 voucher today. I'll not be giving this voucher away.
