Re: CinePiano released ($179)
I like and own most CS products, but the close mics and the cinematic piano both sound dull, not sure why. In a mix with anything else (including a string pad) it would become difficult to hear. Not sure why so much clarity would be removed from the close mics, but the other mics and the classical m...

MIDI Kinetics - Composer Tools Pro - Almost half off Sale
Just checking out Composer Tools Pro for the first time. It's an interesting system. https://www.midikinetics.com/products/composer-tools-pro/ https://youtu.be/U6ovjd3q8uc They now have a forum for posting presets, which has been up for a year, but there doesn't seem to be many contributors as of ye...

Zynaptiq Orange Vocoder Redux!
Clearly I’m a fan of vocoding (see other threads on the issue) and my search for intelligable vocoding may be coming to an end. I’ve been waiting for this rerelease for a long time (had the original and really liked it), but didn’t realize they put out a video at NAMM. The audio is not great but the...

Re: Avid Pro Tools 2018 Released
Cool, thanks guy. I’m actually thankful that it’s been consistent, not falling pray to trying to look different just to justify a big upgrade price. Although it would be good if they would add skin customization. After a few days of using 12 the smoothness of slip editing is noticablly improved. And...

Re: Avid Pro Tools 2018 Released
Yes, have it all working fine in PT - sometimes. I have 2 issues which might be related. In a large project, opening a K5 instance from quick load causes a PT crash, but fine on a blank instance. Deleting 2 or more multichannel instances from a track preset of any VI also causes a crash. Have a cas...

Re: Native Instruments launch sounds.com loops and samples site
I can see how this would be an advantage for NI, getting monthly fees that go on even if it's only rarely used (like the gym!) but for the composer? I'm always surprised how people want access to everything. I'm at that point where I don't want to spend too much time choosing. And my personal collec...

Re: Transformizer / adaptive sound design
This seems like an interesting idea, but everytime I use a plugin that does pitch/volume tracking, the end result becomes a mess. Usually drastic eq is needed to slice out the frequency area you want to keep (like the boom or the crack) but even then it becomes less than satisfactory. Often I end up...

But I’m glad I trialled... when it’s $59 in a sale I’ll add it to the arsenal. My thoughts exactly. Though I'll probably wait u...

Re: Boom Library 'Turbine' / sound-design
This is an interesting library, but there are a few issues. As mentioned control is one. The second is many of the sounds can get sythetic sounding. They have a demo of a siren, but doesn't quite cut it. So for things that are not a turbine, I have yet to hear something that works better than sfx sa...

Re: Korg closes user.net, offers server migration and launches new ARP Odyssey synth
And just to add I installed and registered all products without a hitch - the new installer seems to work fine now in Windows. Apparently it is important to install / register at some stage. I only had to C/R one plugin for them all to work and appear in my new Korg account. Thanks for all this inf...
