Re: ** Special TruePianos discount for MOTUNATION members! **

I've still got truepianos too. I got carried away by Pianoteq 7 for a while which is great.

Mostly just play straight from my Yamaha P-121 at the moment.

Re: Mix Reference Advice

All really great suggestions guys. Thanks for that.

I'd never have thought of Chicago in a million years!

I've been somewhat inspired by Neil Young's - A Man Needs A Maid - for this mix. Particularly for the piano sound. I like the way it sits back and draws you in.

Thanks again..

Mix Reference Advice

Hi all. I'm currently working on a mix for a friend of mine. It's a track consisting of String Quartet, Piano, Acoustic guitar and Vocal. I'm trying to find tracks which use similar instrumentation, that I can use as a reference for my mix. Any genre/style could be relevant really. So far I've liste...

Think this is what you're talking about Prime Mover. Haven't actually tested this and i'm not really a proficient enough guitarist to comment but it sounds interesting.

My My, KVR

Hi guys. First post for a while... Just a quick heads-up that KVR Audio are now running a free software update service. From what I can gather, if you have a KVR account you can enter your software information into something called 'My KVR', they will then send you notifications of updates to your s...

Re: Who is running a SSD for their internal system drive?

I like the approach mentioned by timriley, where he runs his OS and the current project from the SSD. With one of these new SATAIII SSD's, I can only imagine how SNAPPY things must feel! I got the idea from someone on here. I think it was from James actually. As wabbitguy said, the computer startup...

Re: Who is running a SSD for their internal system drive?

I have a 120gb SSD for the System drive on my Mac Pro. I also have two 1tb 7200 hardrives, one for samples and one for storage. I run the current project i'm working on direct from the SSD drive. Been going for 4 months now with moderate usage and it works great so far. DP load times are super fast ...

Re: Which string library is the best? Help!

I just went to check out the Dan Dean offer. As of this moment there are only 94 subscribers. This means that the price is now $149. Looks like it takes 900 subscribers to bring it down to $69. By my reckoning the library will probably go for either $119 or at a push $99. Still not a bad deal I gue...

Here's a review from Sound On Sound.

Also, according to the news section of their website, the library was used in some of "Celine Dion’s new CD’s".
