thanks a lot for showing me how bad I am in writing english in such a nice way! No, that is as far from my intentions as it gets! I was mocking myself, and only myself. It was the LOGIC of the original quote, and not your English that didn't make sense to me. Your message was pretty clear to me, an...

Everyone's got an opinion. They can express it within certain bounds. I really don't see anything bad about using the Fortune 500 picture in connection with that story. Is that unproductive? Man, then you must hate most of my posts. no, it‘s not unproductive to express your opinion and I am in no w...

Speaking of the DP5 logo, I was disappointed with it. It looks like it was designed by a graphics intern who had just taken a 20th Century art history class. Demuth-Figure5InGold.jpg Sorry for going OT. now that‘s interesting... perhaps a fan of the authors of my nickname did the dp5 logo? and btw,...

so did you sell the WarpFactory? if so, why? did you have any other electrix fx?

As with recording drums, you will find many full-time professionals with opposite advice, so don't feel that any way is "right" or "wrong". Who knows, you may come up with a whole new approach that becomes all the rage. I agree. I am a bass player myself, and it so much depends ...

perhaps you can find a electrix warpfactory... http://www.electrixpro.com/products/warpfactory2.html the company went out of business a few years ago, but are now coming back slowly. I think version1 of their effects are going quite cheap on ebay these days, this might be even cheaper than a softwar...

Re: Scrubbing-Do I need more CPU power?

First problem: I can find the click in the sequence editor window no problem. However, the pencil tool does not seem to work in that window. So I go to the Soundfile window. Well, now since I'm working on the whole raw file, the click is not in the same place. The marker I made in the sequence edit...

hard to pick anyone favourite, but if I had to choose one I‘d say Pierre Boulez - also because he is a master conductor (listen to mahler‘s 5th symphony with the vienna philharmonic)

Hello everyone. I only recently saw this thread today. I've taken the liberty of editing a post and deleting some others. Whether in jest or not, it's never a good idea or fair to make generalizations about someone's nationality, and references to past politics aren't helpful. Thanks! thanks james!
