The Sound Board

April 5th-8th JRR shop has a 30% discount on selected Best Service instruments: Only 1 day for each, over 4 days: April 5th - Emotional Cello, Galaxy X and Pianos, Studio box III, Tone2 synths April 6th - Ed Tarilonte Day!- Era II, Desert Winds, Kwaya, Shevannai... all his stuff. April 7th - Chris H...

I'm surprised it's only $30 off. Adaptiverb was intro'ed at $99, and I was hoping for the same for a "novel" effect plug. Also no further discount on JRR. Not on Audio Deluxe... yet. (They have the rest of Zyn's products) Edit: Aaaaand there it pops up a few hours later on AD... no discoun...

It is silly to see a player hitting one key and head bobbing, but there is much more to building trailer music than this. These kits help you add sound fx (which I would imaging most here do with whooshes, big drum hits, or atonal orchestral fx, no? What's the difference?) but it doesn't creat melod...

Looks pretty good - I guess it's really aimed squarely at the hybrid crowd.

Perhaps this thread could be retitled as well? Thx.

It excels at tension/horror/drama beds etc but decided to see what happens with something more positive. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31773631/A%20New%20Light.aif I can do a naked version if anyone is interested. Also looked at Dronar which i think I am going to get, you would think it is si...

Looking forward to users responses, whether it can be used as a traditional string library as well. The $150 off for past customers only lasts until 4/13/17 (2 weeks) so no waiting for their half price sale ($549/2 = $275-150 = $125 = sweeeet!) but I suppose that's expecting far too much in the 1st ...

Amazing that Korg has found a way to repackage their synths again! Even the M1 is being sold as separate products for different platforms- Mac, tablet, phone, even smaller gaming devices. Good for them. I just don't see myself buying these products again when the legacy desktop version does all that...

Well, given that there's another thread in Instruments and Libraries about the same subject, I think 2 is probably enough! :-) Apologies for messing that up for you, Burp. Guy, didn't you say you had some of their sounds? Perhaps it was someone else. I have heard good things about these sounds, jus...

I just knew Guy would see this. ;) 60 credits (60 sounds) for $22 is good considering they are usually $5 each. They just stated you can make multiple purchases (see the original vi thread) but keep in mind they expire April 1st, 2018 (1 year). Also after auditioning some sounds I found some that ha...

I think I am glad I did not pull the trigger on Keyscape. Now that I'm going through Studio, I think you're still going to want Keyscape. Feels like the difference between working a funky home studio, then spending a day at Ocean Way. Yeah, the home studio is comfortable and will work fine most of ...

Just compared Stuio, UVI, and Keyscape and posted to VI control but it was a no-go, so I thought I would post my thoughts on the three here. An informal quick test to be sure, but I think informational. Here is the original post: Hey GospelMusicians guys, I'm extremely annoyed. Tried to post a quest...

Any word on this? Adaptiverb was on sale for $99 when it came out, hoping this will be similar.

Last thing I heard was "Both products released Q2 2016". Could this be the BBB v2 of effects?

I think good horns are still a distant unicorn. I really like combining Sample modeling with Swing and Cinebrass (even some HB) but it's a decent amount of playing/programming. Impact Soundworks just mentioned on VI they are working on a stand alone product for the smart voicing, so perhaps IS will ...

Why are there no pages for support groups? Bass players unite!

Impact Soundworks is proud to announce Straight Ahead Jazz Horns, created in collaboration with Straight Ahead Samples! This revamped library features over 75,000 samples of 13 solo brass and sax instruments perfect for jazz, funk, pop, R&B and more. Each instrument is deeply sampled with a vari...

I spotted an ABSURD deal on v5 + Spark 2 on KVR 2nd hand. Bought for $180... how could I not? As you said earlier Bill, the SEM sounds absolutely terrific (far better than the Prophet or Juno emulations) and it looks like I'll be able to get my head round it ok. X-bassist, the low end of the SEM is...

Personally all the Arturia demos sounded limited, not any exciting sounds. I feel the same about most UVI stuff, some are better than others but none have a great low end. Was really thinking of getting the Syncalviar when it was last on sale but the demo left me thinking "what would I use this...

If I could by the Synclavier I would. I am completely satisfied with the TimewARP 2600, and the gForce mini, so really the only other Arturia synth that grabs my attention is the Jupiter and maybe the Matrix. And I also wish someone would release a library or emulation based on the Waveframe!!! UVI...

Mike Greene has done it again. Can't wait for his walkthrough.

Here's my typically shambolic overview of Keyscape Creative https://youtu.be/1YeG0IzSntA Thanks Guy, I thought Eric might build some patches for KS, but I never imagined 1200! Glad I got Keyscape, but now I realize I can't wait on the Omni 2 update any longer. This is a good example of why I'm will...

Hi, I'm still trying to guess what was the main reason for releasing the new Solo Violin 2 and Cello 2 ? Were they requested by users ? or does VSL see a need for offering a new flavor of these instruments ? and is this something they have planned for their current lineup of Strings, Woods, Brass ?...

Jrr shop have them at the discount - https://www.jrrshop.com/zynaptiq?dir=asc&order=name This is strange. JRR shop isn't allowing cart coupons on this AND the prices are not quite 40% off. $169 should be $101, but instead is $113. The more expensive plugs are closer, but still not 40% off. And ...

Link? This is not the case on their website:

Finally had some proper time to play with programming the thing. And I tells ya what - I LOVE IT. And my reservations about not sounding analogue enough are melting away - playing around with some wavetables and filters, and it sounds pretty damn good to me. It's probably the most fun synth to prog...
