Re: Compressors?

This one has turned to be my go-to for any project.

IMOE, extremely transparent. Many presets, in case you need some.
A serious learning curve if you wanna go deep inside, though.

Re: Looks like it’s time to move away from DP - wondering if others are doing the same

To make a simple and clear answer to OP: for sure, it's not the moment for me to quit working with DP.
To each his own, and as usual YMMV.
Hope you find your way and get the job well done (and well paid!).

Re: "File Not Found (-43)"

Not sure but it may be a OS 12/7/6 thing.
Not sure every 12/7/6 user are hit, though.

Happens within an hour if DP is up and TM is set to automatic backup.
My routine is still TM manual backup at session end.
A workaround, not a solution.

Re: I'm a dunce - how to create a dedicated MONO side chain bus?

IMHO, the Waldorf hardware vocoder, named STVC, is great. IMOE, very clear and articulate.
I have the Waldorf plugin too, named Lector, but have never used it in a projet, till now.

Re: I'm a dunce - how to create a dedicated MONO side chain bus?

Maybe I don't get your case, or I'm pushing an opened door: Why not send (aux send) your mono (sidechain) track to a new stereo bus, then feed the vocoder sidechain input with this stereo bus?

Well, Mike, I'd much like to know the way. I'm gonna have some use for this in near future.

Re: How do YOU compose music?

First call, I hate composition dead lines, in any types of project, small to big ones.
But I found that dead lines do push me further, to places where I woud'nt go.

Re: New Roli "Piano"

If someone has opportunity to put fingers on this keyboard, I'd be very interested by first impressions.

Mainly about key feeling : how does it compare to the TP/8S and TP/9S Fatar semi-weighted keys?

Re: New Roli "Piano"

Thanks for posting, Stubbsonic.
Full 49 size keyboard, with pitch and poly-aftertouch, is much tempting. Hum, hum...

Leap-motion did get lost a few years ago, letting a gig-friend of mine very disapointed.
AirWave could be good news for him.

Re: Dealing with RFI or How to Turn Off the Radio Station in Your Mics and Guitars

Beating a long dead horse: in case of high gain guitar amp noise, humbucking pickups may help.
In case of balanced and unbalanced line noise, isolation transformers may help too.

Re: Starter Bass Amp

Depends on styles involved, and on drum level too (from soft to thunder).

IMOE, in case of rock, or any style approaching, an Ampeg is hard to beat.
