I have 2 questions about SAMP

1 : Are spline based curves not allowed in automation ? and is the resolution of 1024 steps enough when logic claims sample accurate automation ?

2: I want to use stereo sidechaining but can't see a way to do so in the same way as in Cubase e.g. crunchessor. Are only the builtin effects allowed for surround configurations ?

Greetings and Salutations.
I have a question regarding Samplitude 2496 if anyone can help. I am experiencing quite a bit of crashing upon using dx plugins and/or closing the program. I'm getting an ACcESS VIOLATION window and sometimes of course it just freezes altogether and reboot etc.

Okey, I got my dream a house where I can have a dedicated studio :)

Heres what I've got now -

Alesis HD24
Tascam DM24
Yamaha AW16G
mics
M-Audio 2496
2x M-audio Tampas
Samplitude 6 studio (I never us it)
KRK RP8s
Wharfedale 8.2A

Here what I want to do.

I have the demo of Samplitude V8. I was wondering if anybody uses the Mackie Universal Control with this program? Does it have full fuction over the controller? Can you use scrub (with the wheel) in small increments? Can you set in and out points as well?

I just downloaded the DEMO version of Samplitude 8 and was very impressed. My question is which version should I be looking at? I want to use if for remote recording (max 8 tracks) and mastering. Can it be used on two machines? My laptop for remotes and my desktop for mastering? Thanks for any and all advice

I made a recording yesterday using Sonar (mainly because I'm familiar enough with it to know what to do when it crashes mid-concert!).

I moved it into Samplitude for further processing, and was very pleased with the sound. When I put it on CD most of the detail was retained quite well, but there seemed to be a certain harshness on the sibilants that wasn't on the original recording.

I have a couple of questions for you seasoned Samplitude users. I tried the V8 demo and i definetely getting it, i would like to know however

Has anyone tried the new cheapo Magix sequencer? I think it costs $79 in the USA, but it is very similar in its basic setup.

Might make a better introduction to Samp than the limited demo. I'm thinking of buying it for my laptop it as a digital 'tape machine', and moving Samplitude onto my desktop machine.

Gentlemen,
I got Samplitude 7 today. I had given up hope that it would arrive, and assumed I'd been ripped off, but it's here and it's wonderful. I was able to go through the activation process, so it's real.

I am looking to upgrade Samplitude 6 mastering.

I want Powr dithering. Crossfade capability. Restoration ability.

What Samplitude product above 6 mastering version will offer this?

Thanks,

Woods
