Thanks, I'll hold off until the summer sale unless my last GME stock goes for a grand tomorrow

Is there a VST that just simply saves whatever it receives as a wav on disk? I have found a few, but they are ancient things - some boasting how they now support Windows XP!

The MeldaProduction one seems up to date. It comes in their free bundle. If your host supports 32 bit vst, the Voxengo recorder should work as well without the need to install any other crap with it.

Perfect! And there's some simple but handy things in that bundle too - just been having a bit of fun with the tone and noise generators

prom candy posted:Is Arturia V collection worth full price? Does it go on sale often? I don't really want all 28 instruments but it seems like a good way to get a lot of retro synths plus some e piano and others Analog Lab 5, Pigments and most of the instruments included in V Collection just went on sale at PluginBoutique. But not V Collection itself, for some reason. Has anyone upgraded from Analog Lab 4 to 5? Is it worth it?

Thanks, I'll check that out! I don't really want the whole collection anyway, it just seems like it might be cheaper to go that way

Anybody have Arturia Spark 2? Is it worth it? Does it offer a lot of utility over just finding samples of the respective drum machines?

MockingQuantum posted:Anybody have Arturia Spark 2? Is it worth it? Does it offer a lot of utility over just finding samples of the respective drum machines? I find it to be one of the less usable drum machines. The samples it offers are good, and my opinion is mainly around what it takes to build your own kits. The sample browsing is clunky; I prefer the workflow that Battery or Groove Agent offer for kit designing. I am too lazy to search this up at the moment, but it seems like I remember reading Arturia had licensed their drum samples from UVI- so if you already have one of UVI's BeatBox Anthology sets you might already have the sounds. (I could be misremembering; it has been years.)

I'm working on some blues jams for a project. What's a good (sub-$150 if possible) B3 organ VST?

Arturia B3V is fine https://www.arturia.com/products/analog-classics/b-3-v/overview I am sure there is better, however.

I use this, but have seen it (and got it) cheaper that the $20 sale price here: https://www.adsrsounds.com/product/software/air-music-tech-db-33-virtual-organ-instrument/ I'm very satisfied with it.

May have already been said but Plugin Boutique are doing a 'birthday sale' til the end of the month and there are some obnoxiously good deals on there right now. Izotope Trash 2 for a tenner, for example.

No but for that price it looks interesting and worth a punt, other than the iLok requirement. I always thought iLok hate was hyperbolic until I dealt with it after having reinstalling windows and upgrading my pc. If you can get past that, it's less than a pouch of tobacco or a few pints in a pub at the sale price so if you think you'll use it it can't hurt.

Anyone have any tips on scala-friendly software? I've looked around and there are options, some expensive some not, but I was wondering if anyone here has any tips. It's frustrating having things I really like the Arturia collection and being limited in the tuning department, outside of doing something like resampling.

Plugin Alliance is running a coupon code for any plugin outside of a handful for $29.99. Bx_Masterdesk and bx_console N are really nice for that price, with Masterdesk being the last plugin in my mix bus on my standard template. VSM3 is an awesome saturated that I've been using frequently, too.

Also, if you want to fool around with tunings with different exports, check outhttps://sevish.com/scaleworkshop/, it's a much easier tool for me to use than Scala.

It's frustrating having things I really like the Arturia collection and being limited in the tuning department, outside of doing something like resampling. U-he stuff often has scala support, as do AAS products. It comes up in strange places, like Pianoteq supports scala scales and in the latest version even gives you details about which temperament it is, which is pretty nifty. I thought scala was able to retune midi via pitch bend, either live or on a particular MIDI file? Clearly not ideal, of course... E: also Arturia Pigments, Madrona Labs plugs, Plogue plugs, Melodyne (bizarrely enough)... free Trapt CD fucked around with this message at 15:27 on Mar 1, 2021 |

There have been major advances in reverb technology and quality in the last few years, but I still like the free voxengo oldskoolverb for doing what it says on the tin.

Are the valhalla verbs that much better than the ableton ones?

# ? Mar 4, 2021 16:05 |

Valhalla Shimmer is the best reverb plugin I've ever used and blows Reason's built-in reverbs out of the water, though I'm a huge sucker for that shimmer effect. They have other verbs that would suit you better if you're not.

Vintage Verb. After that I started using Evantide SP2016 when I got it on sale once. But it's too expensive normally. Also the Lexicon reverbs were good I seem to recall but might require ilok and cost millions of dollars.

Native Instruments used to a have a loving amazing one that I'd stick on a laptop and use for stage and it sounded loving amazing. Like, better than Nords monsterishly expensive organs good. Then they tanked it and replaced it with Kontakt instruments that really dont have the tweakability to give me what I need.
