The Sound Board

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-MxUkfe_9I I was just watching this video. Seems like it has got a tons of new features. Has anyone got Nexus 5 yet? I never bought it but now it looks like it's well beyond the Rompler that the previous versions were. Still, £188 is quite a lot for a synth these ...

As a big fan of Avenger who never got his hands on Nexus, this does sound like a really powerful bunch of new features, that brings it beyond the basic rompler status. But IRRC even the christmas sale offers miniscule discounts for Nexus, right? Like 20% of so, right? Hard to get on board, when so ...

I haven't updated yet but at first glance there seems to be quite a lot of interesting new features: Audio to chord - helpful for those Splice loops you can't quite figure out. VariAudio scale assistant - handy for quick harmonies from vocals etc. Sidechaining export - this is super useful for us ...

While I was initially underwhelmed by the amount of patches you get for the price, it appears that the scenes makes up for that, as they provide quite a lot of variety. I thought scenes were some minute differences but that doesn't appear to the case at all. My main issue - for me - is that ...

(...) I’ve never really explored transient shaping (...) Here's another video on the Quantum: https://youtu.be/_ufAjQRHHo8 _ I'm not that well versed in transient shaping and have just used Neutron and NI's Transient master up until now. I've had my eyes on Spiff from Oeksound, but always found it a ...

I only have RX 6 elements and the offer of upgrading to RX8 with the further free RX9 upgrade coming very soon, is a bit tempting. My price is £97 via AudioDeluxe, but with Black Friday around the corner, it's tempting to wait and perhaps even get MPS 4 for cheap. How does that upgrade price sound? ...

I've considered getting Nexus 3 for a while. But, the base model is £250, and from the YouTube video's I've looked at, the base content is not all that great. The greatness comes from the huge amount of expansions. For example, the vocal expansion seems better than anything similar I've seen on the ...

I bought it. It's quite similar to Air's The Riser, but a bit more slick. It has a few nice features, such as reversing the fx and locking fx to a certain amount of bars etc. If you're tired of these huge, over the top, ' Michael Bay' risers and downers that most libraries have, this is a nice ...

This looks like a killer upgrade to me. If export can handle stems with included sends, which seems to be the case, that will save me a lot of time. MIDI bezier curves along with snapping to semi tones for pitch bend is really handy as well. Just a simple thing like you can now double click to ...

Bassroom and Mixroom sits permanently on my master bus. I've found them so useful, that I went back and ran 2 whole albums worth of tracks through them. While presets can be useful, their power truly come in play when you load a reference track that's similar to the one you're working on. The more ...

For those that don't like the offering from Arturia, it might be worth waiting for Synapse emulation. Even Behringer is doing one. So there'll be *soon* be other options. None of them have release dates yet though, and the Behringer one appears to have been in development for 2 years, so who knows ...

I think I'll wait a couple of days to update, til the dust have settled.

Tempted to buy a few more expansions, although I've still got 3 spare ones left from the 5 pack I bought last year.

I had the original Complete Toy museum. Thought it would be nice to have some smaller, more basic sounds, but it didn't quite work out that way in the end. Ended up selling it. The toys mostly just sounds like sub-standard instruments. The 8 bit synth is a nice addition, but those sounds can be ...

I went ahead and bought the 5 x expansion pack.
I've still only downloaded 1 expansion. Good thing is, you can pick future expansions - no need to download all right away.

Offer ends tonight btw.

Via Sweetwater you can get 5 expansions for the price of 4, or rather 2 now that it's 50% off. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/AvengerXP5Pk--vengeance-sound-vps-avenger-expansion-pack-pick-5 ooh thanks for that. It's not massively cheaper since you get an extra 10% off when you add more ...

I initially got excited as I thought 'Mix assistant' would EQ/compress etc. but all it does it set the levels, which would be helpful if you are a mixing engineer who mostly mixes bands. But for a composer, who mixes on the fly, I just don't see how it would be useful. Sculptor looks cool, but it ...

I found myself taking a break from composing, so I ended up checking out the walkthrough. I almost didn't cause I really couldn't care less about a new piano library. But....this is really not a piano library. This is an atmospheric dark film score soundset and it's right up there with the best of ...

Legend emulates Moog Model D I believe.

Diva emulates Moog Model D, Roland Jupiter 6/ 8, Juno 60, JP-8000 and Korg MS-20.

Does that answer your question?

I like the idea but it's not something I would pay $300 for, let alone $500. And this might just be me, but I like laptop keys as much as I like mini keys on a MIDI keyboard. I really don't get the fascination of the short travel distance for keys, apart from space saving purposes, which is hardly ...

Cyber Monday bargain.

Embertone's Walker D lite is on sale for only $10 this week til Friday.

I use Plug & Mix's Degradiator way more than I thought I would, when I need to match crappy Skype calls to even-crappier Skype calls. As a VIP Bundle owner it was added to the bundle at no charge. BTW, that bundle is BF priced at $50. With 50 plugs it's pretty easy to find something you'll like in ...

I must admit I'm a bit disappointed with Black Friday.... everything I want is only 20-25% off. Where as everything I don't care about is like 50+% off ;( This was my favorite part of Black Friday. Saved me a lot of money. :D Worst thing...just spotted a new sample library that moved instantly to ...

Everything at Vengeance Sound (VPS Avenger, other plugins) is off at 25% - https://www.vengeance-sound.com/index.php Thanks, added - a bit surprising that the expansions seem to be excluded. Just tried the first expansion - worked fine. If you have trouble with the website though, you can order ...
