Re: Noise Engineering: SB 1 or SB 2?

Got a question...have I totally misunderstood these REs? Up until now I've thought they were modular...like in Eurorack. I just downloaded a couple of them now after reading this thread and I'm starting to wonder if they are actually all synths in their own right. Are they? Yea Louque put together ...

Re: Noise Engineering: SB 1 or SB 2?

You have to get both i think unfortunatley to make use of the full range of sounds, Practically all of em are fm/addiitive modules. I think they sound beautifull :puf_smile: For the typical sequenced modular melodies my favourite starting point is usually the Sinc Iter Vereor..probably the easiest o...

Re: Stringwerk vs Friktion

Yea agree with above. https://youtu.be/H8Wu0Jr75VI This is more akin to what Friction does or attempts to do . SWAM looks decent and is as far as i can tell similar to Friction..although Swam has a seperate solo intrument for each of the 4 string famiies (and will cost you more) i think friction att...

Re: Parsec 2.0 - Does Anyone Use This ?

It can be great for pad-type sounds on occasion (using the ensemble modifiers).. i pile two into a combi because parsec can sound a bit thin. it's a bit like malstrom though in that you often have to spend quite a bit of time eqing out all the 'bad' frequencies.

Re: Stumped with a reverb issue

I think you mean you need to attach a compressor after the hats reverb send (or the drum bus reverb send) and then send an extra pair of audio outs from the snare channel (use the parrallel sudio outs if you wish) into that compressor's sidechain input and then paly around with the compressor's thre...

Re: Hardly used my new MIDI Controller...nobody likes change?

I think another reason is that because it's new I got a bit over careful and decided to protect it from dust when I'm not using it. Bit of cloth over it. That adds another step further away from using it. It's like when I got my Guild I didn't want to gig with it until I just decided fgck it who ca...

Thanks guys. I took the plunge today and pre- ordered K13 ..the hardrive version (thanks for the advice on that Wongo).

Sounds good. Would sound good in combination with stringwerk.

Re: What Time Signature Is This?

I'm without a computer and this phone don't do audio or video unfortunately so I can't listen.. but if all else fails try chasing your time signature to 8/4 and maybe halving the bpm to adjust. This would typically adjust a 4 to the floor beat for eg into an 8 to the floor one but keep your bar line...
