Your 2020 worst purchase ?


Christian Jones

Recommended Posts

Worst purchase for 2020 was Joey Sturgis Tones Howard Benson Vocals .... ?

This plugin sounds so terrible,  it's for folks who scream while singing. 

I uninstalled this and went back to  my trusted Scheps Omni Channel ? , Yes I am happy again.

Every time I buy a loop library.  They sit in my downloads folder for weeks.  I audition a few of the sounds and then send them off to my 3 systems.  I've started to delete by 9 Volt Audio and Loop Loft folders.     The ones I buy usually have midi files so I delete the wav files except for the mix files so I know how they are suppose to sound.

I thought you were going to say you went to your closet and pulled out an old one.

If you really want to know who your best friend is, lock your woman in the garage with the dog and go out for the day. When you get back, open the door and see which one is still pleased to see you...

I think they will both be glad to see me . Milo will be happy I came to rescue him from her and she will be happy to send me out to the grocery store to pick her up another  jar of peanut butter ....

Ouch did I say that ?

Baaaddddd Kenny !

 lol - this x 10 !!!

I mainly get guitar loops, as I'm pretty much in a rut with my guitar playing nowadays (I can play, but I don't consider myself a guitarist). 

I very rarely use loops as is, but use them for inspiration instead. What I've started doing is jamming along to the loops, then using what I've played along instead. Quite often this is a two step process... in other words, I'll solo along to the sample loop, then delete the sample loop and record a new rhythm part to the solo.

They banned bikinis?

Yep. Warnings and threats of banning were thrown about*.

My "Pet of the Month: Swimwear Edition" fred, which featured cute furry animals wearing swimwear, was deleted.

Apparently we're not allowed to post anything that may be considered unsuitable for any passing 5 year olds (I kid you not).

 

 

 

 

 

* Not to me though, although I probably deserve .

So, as I told my wife, I only bought one thing music related in 2020.  Was it my best purchase, or was it my worst purchase?

Both. You didn't buy a better item, so it's your best; you didn't buy an item that was worse, so it's also your worst. What was it?

Paulo's tip of the day:

Don't worry so much about telling her about how many things you really bought. Truth is that she sees them all as electronic babysitters to keep you out of the way while she does whatever she wants to.

Our little Multipoo is like that. The one who locks her up in her crate when we go out is the one she searches for when she is let out.  If I let her out but my daughter put her in the crate she will run out of the crate and look for her to give licks to first. Happens all the time.

I don't have a "worst" purchase to share, but I got slightly "chumped" on one of my favorite purchases, Sandman Pro.

In late November I remembered the $25 voucher I had for them from filling out a survey, minimum purchase $39. Since I'm getting more into in-the-box glitchy weirdness, I downloaded the trial for Sandman Pro/Instant Delay and it was love at first mix. $49, but I figured with a 15-day trial and all the sales coming up I would sit tight, worst case scenario it never goes on sale and I drop $25 on it.

Sat out the "most plug-ins $29" sale, then a few of their subsequent ones where they were putting selected products on deep discount.

Finally decided to just say the heck with it, Unfiltered aren't participating in the Dec. sales, my voucher expires on the 30th, so $24 for a pair of insanely great tools it is.

Christmas comes and goes, and I get a no-minimum voucher for $20 and Sandman Pro drops to $19.99, making it effectively free.

No skin off any body part, I paid the price of a trip for 2 to Burger King (or half the price of discount admission to Six Flags Marine World) to be able to use a great tool for 3 weeks, and I got Fault for free instead (oh did BYOME call to me).

Still, worst deal on a favorite plug-in. But considering that I got enough plug-ins for free (Including the $29 Fault) this year that I will be literally unable to explore all of them as long as I live, I'm fine with supporting one of my favorite manufacturers.

Now I hope that they don't renew that dang voucher code again so I don't have to struggle over whether to get BYOME....

It almost sounds as if it was all my fault the way you quoted me ..

Good thing I have thick skin ...I would hate to be " that guy " responsible for running all the women out of every music forum ....
