Re: Connect the mic and headphones

Hey Dominic,

You don't need a mic or headphones to use Bunker Strings, and you don't need Bunker Strings to use a mic or headphones. Thus it's probably a problem with your computer settings. Can you elaborate a little on your setup?

Re: New iZotope Trash and free Trash Lite

Installed Trash Lite (or Trash Free, depending on who at iZotope named which file). Looks fine.

Activated old Trash 2 license. Still no upgrade price, though they'll gladly sell me an upgrade from Iris/Breaktweaker/etc for $49.

BestService has the upgrade for ~$27 USD, though I'm not really tempted.

Re: New iZotope Trash and free Trash Lite

$79 (reg $99). Haven't seen anything about a discount for Trash 2 owners. Can't figure out how to get Trash Lite, but I'm not trying very hard. Oh! I just clicked and £19 for me who has Trash 2. That's below my impulse buy threshold, and I like the look of the X/Y pads to get a custom sound quickly...

But not Pandora Core. IMHO, a real missed opportunity. I would have bought it.

Re: Black Friday tips

I bought the Ronroco, the last of the Red Room Audio fiddles that I didn't already have May I ask which one that is? I picked up their Gypsy fiddle. Already had the Celtic and Bluegrass versions. They get major props for capturing the sounds and styles of the Celtic and Bluegrass fiddlers. I'm not ...

Re: Black Friday tips

I bought the Ronroco, the last of the Red Room Audio fiddles that I didn't already have, and a UPS for my NAS. Also grabbed some Mac utilities like DefaultFolderX.

Picked up the Slate Digital and Waves freebies.

And that's it. Slim pickings this year.

"there's a lot of duplication and cross-promotion mess, I find."

Same. Also mildly annoyed they didn't launch Guitar Rig 7 before the Summer of Sound sale.

Re: FREE: Native Instruments Irish Harp

Looking forward to it.

Meanwhile, disappointed to see the manual for the (very nice looking) Kontakt Factory Library 2 doesn't indicate what the "ornaments" are for the instruments in which they are available. Am I just supposed to guess?

Re: FREE: Native Instruments Irish Harp

Ohhhh I hope this means a Spotlight Series - Ireland is on the way. GUI looks the same as the other Series instruments.

Wish they'd release it now (if it's coming) as I'm working on a vaguely Irish piece now.

Re: Native Instruments Summer Of Sound '23

I found myself weakening yesterday when I realised I had a bunch of credit with Audiodeluxe and with the exchange rate can pick up the CE update to a mere £160.
