Interesting article about modern mastering

Here's a nice article about mastering bt's new album, these hopeful machines. Mastering that complex blurs the line between mixing and mastering.

Re: A question for the Pro's about the modern POP sound

Just saw an interview by Redone where he says that everything on Lady Gaga's album came form the factory sounds of Logic VI's, which btw are pretty good, but you can get the same or better results with the VI's mentioned above. Best regards. delcosmos. Wow, that's pretty impressive. I wouldn't have...

I guess you can tell everyone's not happy about the iPad :shock:

That has to be the coolest room man has ever built. About half of the world's outboard is mounted to those walls.

Re: Apple iPad

Thanks James for pimping my thread :mrgreen:

I'm still waiting for the keynote from the event, the "reality distortion field" is almost as good as the product itself :)

iSlate

Apple's big media event is right around the corner. Soon we'll see what's "the most important thing Apple has ever done" I started to think about the possible DAW applications, and I think we'll see some really nice apps for the slate. There's already so much to choose from for iPhone. A b...

If you'd be running running DP5 with VIs..just how unfair would that feel.

Re: do you use VST WRAPPER

Atmosphere and Trilogy have always been AU, so there's no need for a VST wrapper with them, but for Intel Macs, you need the "PPC- wrapper"

So, unless the Spectrasonics wrappers have stopped working in SL, Trilogy and Atmosphere should work.

Re: Honest Opinion about DP Virtual Synths

One thing that would have made me use the VIs more is stability. When DP5 came out, the VIs were so buggy I got too frustrated to continue working with them. If we want to do comparisons, I've never had that problem with Logic. I hope and almost believe that MOTU has done better with DP7's amp sims.

Re: Honest Opinion about DP Virtual Synths

As said, this is all so subjective. Some top producers swear by bundled plugins. Not for all tasks, but some. There's pretty much the same controversy with Reason. Some seem unable to think of it as a serious pro app, but still it's used to remix Madonna, and it's regularily featured in many very pr...

Re: Honest Opinion about DP Virtual Synths

They're pretty much one trick ponies, so don't expect to create diverse sounds with them. The mono bass plugin is pretty good for what it does, and polysynth was good too. They are sometimes usable for getting a specific sound, but don't expect more.

Re: DP7 - Has yours shipped or arrived yet?

I've long felt that MOTU is just plain flaky in some areas, and I lower my expectations accordingly. For example, I think it was only recently (last couple of years) that they started sending email confirmations after you placed an order through their web site. Before that, you were left to wonder ...

Re: DP7 - Has yours shipped or arrived yet?

Ok, now I'm really starting to get upset. I ordered the upgrade on September 11th just before I posted the announcement that MOTU has made it official. My credit card was charged on the 11th and here it is the 16th and I still have no notification. Whatever happened to first come first serve? :evil...
