Re: Spectra Song Challenge (Spectra is free)

Here is the results from my fooling around with Spectra.

4 Spectra tracks, accompanied by A-List Studio Drummer

I'm not a 'synth guy', so this was a departure from the norm.

Re: Moving to Reaper from Reason

There is "no position of virtue to maintain" - according to your worldview. It's a rather self-confident statement to be determinant of my 'worldview'. This is not actually a fact or some objective truth. The relevant parts of Reaper's EULA were quoted earlier. T's & C's are entirely objective, upo...

Re: Too much patches, how do you handle them?

Nice necro topic to resurface. A couple of years ago, when upgrading computers, I spend a month (yes, a MONTH) on organizing my patches, presets, ReFills and samples into some kind of usable depository. I deleted as many GB as I saved, making some hard decisions on how attached I might be to a 'soun...

Re: Spectra Song Challenge (Spectra is free)

I'm composing a track for this Song Challenge, despite not being much of a synth dude.

TritoneAddiction - can we collaborate on my project ? If we win, I will shout you a license for Spectra, and every other RE from synthetechsound to date.

I might ad that it's cool that you would leave it in the shop, rather than kill it, as some other devs have done.

Re: Spectra is now free

I've logged in to the forum today to say THANKS for the kind gesture. I'm not much of a synth-user, and don't really comprehend the workflow of synthesis, so I would have not purchased this. But now that I have, it's very cool. Lots of preset patches, which is a big plus for me. I'm actually taking ...

Re: Moving to Reaper from Reason

That’s adorable. Look, if Cockos wanted to, they’d lock it down very easily after a set “demo” period. They don’t. It can be used - forever - by simply clicking past the nag screen. Stop conflating piracy with what they are doing and what I clearly pointed out - which is common knowledge. If you ha...

never felt compelled to actually buy a full license (pro tip: you can use it for free forever, as the "free trial" nag screen is easy to wait out).

Re: Nektar Panorama P4: a new coat of paint!

Can you speak more of the bonding between the knobs and the paint ? In a scientific nature ? Is there some 'plastic welding' happening, due to solvents ?

Re: Nektar Panorama P4: a new coat of paint!

Actually, that's not been my experience with this paint at all. The surface was properly prepared, and it's being kept in a climate controlled studio space out of the elements. This paint was literally designed to sit in the sun, bake in the elements, the rain, snow, etc. I've used it on plastic pa...

And then, perhaps a consideration for "Permission to Evaporate", the brothers' musically emotional homage to their deceased parents.

Two Egyptian Guys Walk in to a Bar....

Joseph (Oud) and James (Percussion) Tawadros

Along with a large 'session band'... the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

Sit back and take a listen to "Point of Departure"...

That's not the case, my posts are not shadow-banned, they are literally deleted, even from my activity history. And it's not about some keywords, I'm careful with that. No personal references either.

Re: A list of devices used in a Reason project.

I use this type of feature with QLab. When I "bundle the workspace" it also includes a text file. That text file simply lists all of the plugins used for that show and the cues in which they are used. Are you familiar with Adobe's "InDesign (ID)", which (I believe) packages all assets along with pr...

Re: A list of devices used in a Reason project.

Don't you name your stems according to the plugin that's on that track ? It's a fair response, Joey. Not everyone works in the same way when it comes to naming/managing projects No I don't. But the bigger point being is I don't have a track for so many plugins in a project unless they have notes or...

Re: A list of devices used in a Reason project.

Well for me I would need plugin names and most of my tracks get generic names or patch names. That and very few of my total plugins have a track. So I'm not sure if it would work for me, unless I'm misunderstanding something. Don't you name your stems according to the plugin that's on that track ? ...
