Re: Arturia Pigments 6

:D I have a 99€ upgrade so unsure at the moment. Since I gave my hands a telecaster 4 yearsago and a strat (H.E.R signature) last week , I’m less inclined to update my synths - though I’m a synth and keys guy. And when I compare Pigment to any U-HE offer I find it weak, unbodied. Bill, you DO have en ...

Re: When you first listen to a song, how important are lyrics to you?

I’m in the « music first » team. It’s even more troubling than that : for years I sang along english songs, or songs written in english, and they didn’t mean anything to me. I mean, I understood the words but they didn’t make sense to me. And later on, when they did finally meant something to my some ...

Hello everyone!
Trying to make sense of everything Cinesamples related.
Is Musio 1 at 199€ still a bargain ? Or risky ?
I don’t have anything from them, oddly enough.

Re: VST buzz closing down sales

Emmet is a good guy, and while I do have my reservations about these sorts of prices making it more difficult for developers to maintain their edge I am not a marketing guy, and I don't think VSTBuzz would have lasted as long as it has if it was truly discouraging sales. In fact I think VSTBuzz has ...

[solved] Faulty Build up

Thanx Guy! I made a rookie error : didn’t plug the CPU cable to the PSU - no instruction about it on the printed manual. It’s from the MoBo to the PSU, actually. A tad rusted since my last build up was more than 10 years ago. Now comes the soft side of things, flashing Bios, transferring data and the ...

my PC build up hasn’t gone well : tiny mother card leds indicates a CPU and RAM dysfunctions. I cannot switch the tower off unless I use the PSU rocker switch itself.

Re: Impact Soundworks / Altera Keys

That’s what I thought : having Keyscape and Omni, is it worth it ? Those not into it might, though.

Edit : listening to the demos, it’s defo not for me as I dislike these DX and JD digi keyz - sounds cheezy like hell, or heaven depending on your worship side.
