GeoShred Studio (MPE!)

Apparently it was on IOS before and now comes to Desktop as well. Jordon Rudess is as a technical advisor on board. Guy, this will interest you perhaps, SWAM Instruments enabled as well. The GeoSWAM and Naada models are available in GeoShred as In-App-Purchases (IAPs). They may be purchased in the S...

There are lyrics that live by the music.

MPE Keyboard experience?

Does anyone around here have experience with it?

Perhaps even with the Korg Keystage.

Arturia has a MK III Version of the Keylab out now, though not upgraded with MPE to my understanding.

I consider selling my Keylab MK II 61 and upgrade to a MPE board eventually.

Wolfgang Rihm RIP

I meant to post that earlier, a great educator and influential composer has left us a few days ago. I had the opportunity and nearly joined his composition class back then, and I very much liked his position on Boulez and Stockhausen, which is a longer story, to cut it short, piano was more importan...

Re: Small but significant studio improvements

:thumbsup: All I read about that long established cmc2 was positive. It is like the Connemara peat smoked Irish single malt :), very competitive with much much higher priced single malts, it literally ticks all the boxes for a ridiculous price tag. Below 300 Euro in Germany makes it a no brainer. ht...

Satechi NVMe 40Gbps enclosure

IN case anyone is looking for en external enclosure, The Satechi is excellent, w/r speed around 3.1 GB/s on TB4 with a WD SN850x, no thermal throttling, I transferred 1.5 TB for a test and transfer speed was consistent. There is a problem with idle temperatures in my view. I had 53-55 degrees celsiu...

It was admittedly a little painful, but I left NI behind a year ago, loosing a handful of much loved libraries, but thankfully not heavily invested. The rest of the bloat, I do not miss, not at all.

Re: Adventures with Omnisphere

I am hooked since it was called the Atmosphere Dream Synth back in 2002. My main Logic preset consists of one track Omnisphere and a -0,1 limiter on the stereo bus, this is always my starting point, the pool of inspiration is endless. I too make extensive use of the recent FLOW feature, a game chang...

Thanks, as I have no comparison other than live experience (long ago!), I was wondering how others perceive that "weird sound“. I think you described that very well Linus. I love what I heard about the bass harmonics, which is a very niche sound of course. That being said, I don't mind a certai...
