The Sound Board

Indeed, general consensus isn’t correct, it’s all individual evaluations of products that may be of value or not. I was triggered myself by the swell and subsequent release that seemed to give good results. But after taking the time to listen through there is an audible thickening happening when pla ...

What is the general consensus here with this new chamber strings library?

Price ( intro) is certainly interesting enough

Is this a good set by anyone’s experience?

The phenomena is interesting, AI interpreting sheet music. But the result to me sounds like a Roland sound canvas from yesteryear. ( ok, a tad melodramatic) If I think of any instrument and all that is involved in mastering not only the instrument itself, but also the many ways in which musicians ...

Wonderfull find! And well recorded, even with just listening to it on my iphone’s speakers( which as we all know is part of a scrupulous method to listen to the quality of our mixes) The demos unfortunately mostly focus on the percussion and other instruments/devices, and less on the stringed i ...

Will do so Linos!

Most likely you know but there is still a sale on Rhapsody…..this thread reminded me that I still also missed a good classic inclined percussion library. Got Rhapsody even at a better price (€50) due to loyalty pricing. Haven’t downloaded it yet…… https://impactsoundworks.com/product/rhapsody-orchest ...

the new acoustic rooms sim by audiomodeling.Together with a swam flow method introduction.

……on paper, this library should be it. With OT’s experience that is a statement that could be valid. However, to me it’s mainly the overall sound that has a feeling of samples rather than musicians. The repetitive vibrato seems to be the main reason why this sounds like samples. I will dust off my f ...

Possibly an interesting (new?) development for reverbs.......

Obviously the guy in the vid has his bias towards this new wave based reverb clear, and you may want to skip some parts as he can be a tad dramatic, but interesting nonetheless

Thanks GR Baumann, it’s a minor bummer in so far as it’s not a main issue, but I do use them sometimes. It’s that increasingly updates never seem to go as suggested. They are more complex as they develop, including the eco system it’s buit into. Let alone 3party software like Native Instruments that ...

Updated to Sequoia too. But not without bumps. Main remaining bump is Apple Logic’s loops & sounds. I moved it to a separate disk as Logic allows you to do from Logic’s menus, done that before the update to Sequoia. But now Logic thinks all sounds & loops need to be reinstalled….. And my startup’s di ...

Ah-ha! Sonuscore have the origins bundle vol 6-10 on sale for $24. I have 1-5 and it's really good - AFAIK this is the first time 6-10 has been at anything like this deep a discount. There's muted guitar, harmonics, tar, chonhuri, Fado guitar, cavaquinho, ronroco, bouzouki, cb panduri and tanbur ...

Certainly much more than a rompler.
The drag and drop functionality on various ‘jobs’ makes it more user friendly

Hmmm….getting tempting to go for the upgrade

Is it my impression that on this forum most members don’t have that much affinity for Performance Samples products? He just released a new, limited in application, woodwinds library https://www.performancesamples.com/pacific-woodwinds/ Whilst I am not interested in this library myself atm, the p ...

Holy, I just noticed something. Compare the mockup above with this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONT2h25MXyc Same piece, same library. The one above is in Sine, this one is in Kontakt. What a difference! The Kontakt demo sounds so much better to me. It's actually a demo that sells the ...

OT brass I don’t own, but BWW ( the original) I still use whenever I need bread& butter woods. As a section they work well due to a fairly consistent overal volume and arts. For more nuanced and close quarters woodwinds you’ll need more specialized libraries obviously. You have thos already in my vie ...

I am going for the Vasks strings…and live with the sine way of doing things.

This time I might upgrade from Nexus 3....

As title says....


Don't know the regular deals for new customers, but depending upon owned products ....mine is € 149,- for V collection X.
Looks attractive.

If you are interested in Arturia, have a look at your offers if you own some of their products I'd say.

I’m not a fan of sequenced shaker and tambourine tracks — no matter how many options you get for humanizing the performance, it always sounds wrong to me —, but if you don’t have such misgivings, Shaka is a good choice. Like all things Klevgrand, well thought-out, intelligently designed and solid so ...

Does anyone have experience with shaka, the shaker plugin?

Is it flexible enough, soundwise and in sufficiently sync with metronome ( not all rhythm based plugins work well when in a bigger project)

I don’t think in my lifetime I will ever own one, but whenever I had the chance to play on a Bösendorfer it has become the golden standard in my taste. The warm tone and the subtle timbres possible especially when playing softer passages, together with its excellent mechanics made it such an ac ...
