All my music of the last ten years falls into chillout, or classical really. Rarely voices, apart from the show tracks and stuff like that - but the stuff I put out there is slowish mainly, and orchestral or synthetic in nature. My guitars get used live with the band, but my own recordings are pretty old-fashioned. I'm happy with this.
Supposedly to hear some tell it, there aren't any really good ones. I suspect that is a supposed pile of pretentious poo, but can't say for sure. Anyone used any they would recommend?
I recently stumbled onto some workflow that has really helped me get better drum tracks with Superior Drummer 2.0 ---- many thanks to Rick Beato:
Another merger. Let's hope the best sounding (imho) virtual drums continue to keep the same quality level. Fingers crossed over here.

I'm just finishing a track for a show - Carpenters - Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft, and have a new respect for Richard Carpenter's orchestrations - as in it's taken me three days so far, two bars at a time to pull out what each instrument and voice is actually playing - but that bits done.
hey I've been looking into BFD 3 closely while its %50 off. When I looked on google someone in a forum said that BFD 3 samples were recorded at 44.1, so the computer has to re-sample in real time when your using it st any other sample rate in a session.
ok...I'm curious, I currently have a rack of samplers and synths, a carry over from my midi days... (aka 5000, Roland 550) and more.
I'm curious to know since the computers are getting far more powerful, and the vst's are getting so good, who has migrated to vst solutions and has abandoned hardware synth all together?
Hi,
I recently bought a Win7 laptop for home use. I'm going to try to re-purpose it for use as a 'Rompler'... to replace my Korg and Ensoniq Keyboard WS which are getting ready to die.
I don't need a lot of sequencing... I just need to switch patches quickly. So this is meant to be not much more than a glorified multi-preset keyboard.
Has anyone else experienced an odd problem with "the grand" piano VSTi from steinberg where there is a high pitch ringing overtone (not clipping, static) on the lower register b-flat and b keys? (happens on recording and blaybackIt sounds just like mic feedback. Eliminating the ambience, hammer-release settings, etc..
This may be of interest to some, a Physically Modelled acoustic guitar in VSTi. I have used it since the free beta days.
