Re: Nektar soft touch: buyer beware

I had the same issue with the propellerhead balance. One day it was fine and the next time I opened it to use it, it was tacky. I have a number of Nektar boards so I fully expect it to happen to those too. It's not a solution but as the balance was old and had long been replaced, I stopped the surfa...

Re: A.I music will take over

Thought I'd check out Udio but it doesn't seem to want me! Won't allow me to sign up, just keeps sending me back to the homepage. So it doesn't look like it's going to 'take over' my music anytime soon :lol:

Re: Nektar P1 or P4

You already have keys and pads so it quite easy choice but then again the P6 already has all the slider the P1 has so I would go for something like Behringer x-touch or an icon controller that has motorised faders it extra controls are what you need, Thanks for the reply. It's a T6 I currently have...

Nektar P1 or P4

I already own a Nektar Panorama T6 but I've been looking out for a cheap P series for the extra mappings available and the slightly better work flow they offer. I've been offered a Nektar P1 or P4, for the same money. Obviously the P4 is worth more but considering I already have what many would cons...

Re: Chord Sequencer: am I using it wrong?

Thanks for the responses. I’ll take a look at Scaler 2, but I think I’m also enjoying actually acquiring some knowledge. Currently having a good time decoding the chord sequences of favorite tracks, quite a lightbulb moment in fact. I also recommend Scaler as you can use it on many different levels...

The issue isn't that you can't use the AI image for your album cover art, or even whether you wish to give away or sell your music with the artwork attached, you can do all of this. The issue is that you may not be able to claim copyright for that image yourself going forward as it may be deemed to ...

Always remember that this is simply a numbers game for hackers.

Re: Needle Distortion by Dusty Devices

If there's a more fully featured vinyl emulator out there now, I've not come across it. Well laid out, easy to use and most of all sits well and sounds really authentic in a mix, what's not to love!

Suprised this hasn't been posted already. It's listed as a crossgrade but the criteria is very loose. Basically if you have ever purchased anything from PB before or have any other DAW then you are eligible.

I don't see what the big deal is about browsing patches. Seems normal to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Kind of disappointed with the factory presets as they're all too aggressive and trancy for me.
