Re: What did you just buy yourself?

My Kensington Orbit trackbal just died on me. While looking for a replacement, I decided to do an upgrade while I'm at it :puf_bigsmile:

Re: Synthwave Dr. OctoRex drum refill?

So I'm hoping there's a refill that covers a more classic synthwave style of drum loops? Loops or sounds? The most used drumsounds in synthwave are from the obvious drummachines, like the LinDrum, TR-707 and Oberheim's DMX. All are available as RE emulations. The drum-loops in synthwave are rather ...

I just put this across the top of an early 70s style krautrock project I'm working on atm and its super tasty. Man that overdrive is fantastic.
Oh man, now I do have to try it out as well. Grabbing the trial later tonight.

Re: Reason Studios RE sale

Didn't they skip May Madness last year? I seem to recall a spring sale and then no RS reductions in May although some other vendors did reduce stuff in May. Or I might be misremembering. Yep, that happened. And that was what I was referring to :puf_wink: Luckily, many devs did a May Madness sale an...

Re: BXPRO550 - Stereo Baxandall EQ / FREE (Turn2on)

Thanks for another nice free RE. Looking forward to seeing what I can do with it. So far, Sugar-Q has been my favorite EQ for Baxandal-curves. That one doesn't have the mid-band, but can set the shelf frequencies. So nice to have both me thinks :puf_smile:

Re: Thinking of buying RoughRider RE, talk me out of it...

Thanks for your effort. I tried it on the default drum-loop in OctoRex, and with the settings in your combi it was completely off between the "swap".

If you're feeling like it, load up this combinator and hit the "swap" button a few times while listening (I used drums, if that matters). Thanks for your effort.

Re: Thinking of buying RoughRider RE, talk me out of it...

RR, OTOH, would be easy to replace with other devices IMO. I would like to see you take up the challenge :puf_wink: But for me the bottom line isn’t these technical measurements, it’s the ‘grab feel’ (first impression) - how does it feel when you first grab it and insert it on a track. Some compres...

The inputs are mono, you need both for a stereo signal. The line/inst switches are an input level switch.

Re: Thinking of buying RoughRider RE, talk me out of it...

How come you've used this plugin as a VST but you don't know if it's worth keeping? Because I now have access to a whole range of great RE compressors, and I'm curious if one of them might make RoughRider obsolete. Even though I haven't found one this far. If you even have any doubt I think you sho...

"talk me out of it..." Ok, buy Bitcoin instead, so you will be a legend to your grandchildren. : ) Yeah.... that won't work either :puf_smile: So, no suggestions like "you don't need it because this or that RE compressor can do the same"?

Maybe you should just buy it and be happy. I think I will be happy if I do :puf_bigsmile: Get the free VST, try it out and if you like it, buy the RE and replace the VST in your projects with the RE. And then you can throw the VST in the trash. You didn't read my first post, did you? Don't buy it. ...

If you want that specific sound of the VST then yes just get the RE version of it for you’re going the RE only route.

Yep, I'm thinking of plunking down 29 euros for this RE, that is still in its first incarnation, while the VST-version is completely free and already at version 3.
