Re: (World) Melody Advice Needed

I remember being in high school band and learning the adage “if you can sing it, you can play it”. When we first learned a new piece, our directors would have us sing it through first, THEN play it. It worked, someone singing it connected the melodies (or rhythms for us percussionists) at some deepe...

Re: open source millitary percussion beats available?

Drumline was my life from middle school into college. My friends went on to march in Drum Corps but I preferred the studio life (no regrets there). That was a cool video. Thanks for sharing. I've got my suspicions that Giles still wears his drumline uniform every once in a while. Did you hack my we...

Re: Arturia Announcement Today April 9 6pm CEST/12 noon EST

I really thought RS would have done this with elk like they were showing off a few years ago. Native Instruments should’ve done this by now as well. As simple as this keyboard is, it’s genius! The stage intended keyboard market is pretty boring compared to what software can do and this is a step in...

Re: open source millitary percussion beats available?

Drumline for me was about the thrill of a large group in perfect (or close!) sync, the power of ‘many’ making the sound of ‘one’. I will admit I don’t watch drumline/drum corps videos myself, so it was more about the powerful experience for me than the actual music being presented. It actually taug...

Re: Would a mono cable splitter halve the volume?

I feel like I’ve been around a long time and seen just about everything there is to see in audio. But what the heck is “authentic/true dual mono analog recording”? Is there a “false dual mono”? Is there some historical reference being made here? I asked this on your other thread: why record the sam...

Ah, the fairly new, Japanese company (I thought that all this time) - now I see it's French, and founded in 1999. I live under a rock I guess. x D Their MIDI controllers seem interesting - finally a company that uses encoders. "Encoder" is such a generic term, what do you mean exactly? Which compan...

Re: Would a mono cable splitter halve the volume?

I know... so many questions... But yeah, since I wanted an authentic dual mono recording, I guess the best way would be to record from a hardware synth's mono out, into stereo. That's why I thought about, if I get a Behringer Neutron, then I'd connect a jack to its mono-out with a "Y" all-mono jack...

Re: 5 pin VS USB MIDI - Any difference?

I think there was an update to the device, and the newer edition, according to the manual, can handle DIN MIDI properly. Hold the presses, the MIDI input is actually on the front panel - odd choice (and why I missed it) especially since there appears to be plenty of room on the back panel for it. A...

Re: What do you think re control room in Reason?

are you writing with 1/2 because of the click only being on 1/2? The click is on the control-room output as well. However, the browser preview (samples etc.) is completely bypassing any routing and goes directly to output 1/2. So that's probably the reason to have them active during writing/composi...

Indeed, i did the HD graphics for Redrum and included the animation of the fan for RS to use if they liked it, very happy it made it into the release :)

Re: 5 pin VS USB MIDI - Any difference?

NOTE: IF you go with Neutron, there is only the USB option for MIDI IN if I’m not mistaken, so a moot point. Otherwise… If you’re going from a controller keyboard directly to a sound module, MIDI will be your only option in most/all cases (not 100% sure). But if you’re going to the computer and back...

Re: What do you think re control room in Reason?

So my final solution to this is to hook up the control room to 3&4 and monitor on 1&2 while writing music . Then I'll use Focusrite Control to switch the headphone out to 3&4 for the mixing stage so that I can utilize the send monitoring and it's also where I've patched in my reference track input ...

Re: UAD Verve

The arc may be different, but at some point it seems every audio software company decides to do a "one knob" device. I guess it's UAD's turn now! ;)

Seriously, with the tech they have at their disposal they SHOULD be able to hit this out of the park. Anyone have time to check this out yet?

I'm still on 12.7.3d18, windows 10 Machine.

What's your approach to this - you can't assign a button to Thor's Run button, and if you use Thor's button and the Mod Matrix you have to hit the button twice for each step advance. What's the secret here ? (Combinator needs momentary buttons!) Just recorded a video about it, just need to render i...

Just found out a weird one today: In the piano roll, if you draw to select a bunch of notes and using use ctrl + up / down they move, as usual. But if you double click on the piano note to select the full line of notes, you can no longer ctrl + up / down them. :thumbup: /s I just checked, and it wo...
