Re: One for the guitar players-what guitar or fx create this sound

I think it would be hard to synthesize that sound but if you were to try I would start with an electric guitar sample. Have a one note arpeggitor set to 16ths. Put it through an amp sim to get the vintage tone , add spring verb, and modulate some parameter somewhere in 16th steps so each note had a ...

Re: "Rediscover you passion for music..."

Personally, I want to know where Microsoft Word is going. Ever since they got rid of Clippy something has been up. And they have been advertising people using it on Macs and iPads! Windows must be going under.

Re: Arturia V Collection 10 is released

I love Arturia products and got VC9 on sale about a year ago. I was excited about their new 303 synth released a few months ago and bought it separately. Now I'm glad I did because that's the only new instrument in VC10 that I am interested in, and now I can relieve my g.a.s. until VC11! :lol: How ...

Re: "Rediscover you passion for music..."

Well I guess they assume that existing Reason users are overwhelmed with their passion for music and don’t need to rediscover it. They are just trying to shift some units to their competitor’s customers , what’s wrong with that?

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

I think another aspect of physically playing at a lower pitch and very slow is that you are going to get a difference in how the articulation sounds when it is sped up that you wouldn’t get with a pitch shifter. Also. If you play something slow and speed it up you have more sound data over time than...

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

I think him using actual tape is the reason for the added harmonics and and not so much the technique by itself. Doing this digitally would still be digital pitch shifting. But it doesn’t hurt to try I guess. Yeah it’s all digital but the speed thing is a different process to the melodyne time stre...

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

Ok context. I’m listening to the album Tango in the night by Fleetwood Mac and I’m thinking, those guitars sound really unique. How is Lindsey Buckingham getting that tone? So I learn that he spent a long time slowing down all the tracks and recording the guitar parts at half speed. When sped up it ...

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

I’m not looking for greener grass. I know I can slow down audio in Cubase for instance but it will cleverly keep the pitch constant. I need it to behave like tape and pitch down so when I overdub and speed it up my recording is at a higher pitch at regular speed. My Reaper license is so old It timed...

Re: Pro Tools vs Reaper

I could obviously upgrade if track count became an issue. That’s not really what I’m getting at. I mean to ascertain if Pro tools has some special sauce mojo that is worth getting on board with, from someone who has experience with it.

Pro Tools vs Reaper

My next project is going to be all recorded audio and I want to employ some tape recording techniques such as half speed recording of guitars etc. So I need a DAW that can do this easily, Reaper or Pro tools. I’m pretty familiar with Reaper as it was my main DAW for a few years before I got Reason b...

ID8 synth bass patch

Who has a bunch of hardware and can recommend a cheap analogue synth module that can convincingly recreate the ID8 synth bass patch? I can tell you, the Korg Volca bass can not.

I love music from all times. But my favourite period for music gear is the 70s and 80s I love Wurlitzer E.Ps and Boss fx pedals and JCM Marshall amps. Roland drum machines, 1/4 inch headphone jacks, black tolex.
