Re: Slate Digital VIRTUAL MICROPHONE SYSTEM

Just noticed this comment elsewhere, from a guy who spoke directly with Slate about it at NAMM. This person is a working engineer in LA, and a strong skeptic. I'm a strong skeptic, especially at that sort of price. http://groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=54971.msg702353#msg702353 Talked to the slate gu...

Re: Steven Slate Raven MTi

Hi guys, I'm looking forward to speaking more with MOTU, and along with your support, I'm now confident that we can release a DP RAVEN control software in 2014.

Cheers,
Steven

Re: Steven Slate Raven MTi

Hi, as I said, we want to work with DP, but I really need help from DP users. First of all, a sign up sheet for interested parties in the MTi and MTX would be a massive help, as would some participation with MOTU.

Cheers,
Steven

Re: Steven Slate Raven MTi

Hi guys, it's nice to back at MOTUNATION. Thanks for the interest in the RAVEN. I will admit in full disclosure that it wasn't until coming back here that I realized the sheer number of DP guys who continue to use this great DAW to make music. The RAVEN is a wonderful way to mix and edit in a very e...

Re: Slate virtual console collection (VCC)

Seems we still have to fix a few things.. we've just purchased new systems with various hardware and software configs so that it can help us reproduce more system specific bugs. I'm gonna work very hard to kill all last bugs for DP and other workstations this weekend and upcoming week. Thanks for ev...

Re: Slate Digital VCC Available Now w/ Free iLOK2 This Week

Hi Guys.. PM me your ticket numbers.. I'll send them directly to the front of the line. Also.. we just contacted MOTU to try to discuss some things with them and to get the newest DP update.

The new 1.06 should have fixed the CPU issue btw.. please check and post results.

Re: Slate Digital VCC Available Now w/ Free iLOK2 This Week

Right, you cannot change the summing math in DP or any daw via a plugin.. my point was that rather than transparently flow past digital zero.. the VCC mixbuss's modeled amplifiers will start to saturate and clip and you'll hear what sounds like an analog reproduction of console breakup.

Re: Slate Digital VCC Available Now w/ Free iLOK2 This Week

you're right, there is well over 1000db of headroom in a floating point mixbuss but in order to make a final mix you'll not want to go past 0db FS. Digital distortion will happen in a fixed integer mixbuss.. My point was that putting the VCC Mixbuss plugin on the first insert will add nonlinearities...

Re: Slate Digital VCC Available Now w/ Free iLOK2 This Week

Now I'm convinced more on the concept... thanks for the info. There's seems to be an inherent anomaly with hitting the buss hard in a DAW and this theory makes sense but as an insert, does it do something with the math going on within MAS or what is it that gives the buss matrix a more open soundst...

Re: Slate Digital VCC Available Now w/ Free iLOK2 This Week

Hi Steven, Couldn't one get this sound post to printing in digital? If I have a lunchbox to get that sound, couldn't digital reproduce or capture that? What would the plug induce ( post ) that printing the analogue source from the gate not achieve? Just curious about what this plug can do to a file...
