AUDACITY AKAI LPK25 HOW TO
I didn't buy any synths and I'm pretty proud of that - Live's Operator and Sampler are enough once you learn how to use it, especially with Audio Effect and Instrument Racks. Might consider buying Altiverb this year, though.

Voxengo has free impulse reverb samples on their website, works like a charm.

Pluginwise, there's LAConvolver, the only free convolution reverb for Mac that I know of. Then there's the Tech21 Liverpool - I wanted to outsource amp emulation and this little pedal does a great job without all the fancy FX I'd program and automate in the DAW anyway. The Akai APC40 I bought is quite handy for working/performing with Ableton Live, especially with the nativeKONTROL scripts.

The X-ART ribbon tweeters provide a treble resolution that even the Genelecs can't keep up with. I think my best purchase of 2011 were the Adam AX8. Much of my current setup is free, which is nice. Still discovering new things to do in Harmless and Synth1. And I will look for a second set of mixing plugins(other than sequencer built-ins) that might complement the Bootsy kit.Īnd I will continue with all the good stuff I used last year. I will try searching for a "power-user" synth again - maybe another additive. Maybe in the future I'll try other brands too! The 203s bring out a lot more detail than my PX-100s, but I will still use those for everyday listening because they're more comfy. Majken Grizzly as a secondary drum synth for more "FX" type sounds.

Jeskola XS-1 seems to fit my SF2 needs again, so I'll go back to building up some libraries with that format.ĭigidrum Pro for a simple drum synth, something I've missed for a while. Overall not a horrible year, I just never got around to resolving my sample problems(since I'm not composing full-time and mostly do synth stuff anyway), and I was able to forget that I was mixing badly after spending months doing it My mixes were shabby because I wasn't in a situation where I could really use speakers, so I used an old pair of Senn PX-100's instead, which don't have nearly enough accuracy to make good mix decisions. Plex) they mostly didn't stick for one reason or another. I tried a number of free plugins and while some were very promising(e.g. At one time I used sfz free and soundfonts, but it was doing horrible things to my sequencers this year, for some reason. I didn't have a good setup for samples this year and mostly resorted to built-ins of my sequencers, when I really needed them.

A great help to making my MIDI guitars sound a bit more believable(if not perfect). A lot of these plugs have overlapping functionality, which leaves me clueless as how to best use most of it, but I have a habit now of putting FerricTDM on every track and using EpicVerb for all reverb(the only annoyance of the latter is that the default setting of all presets is 100% wet, which sounds stupid), and then randomly choosing one of the others for analog-sounding compression and EQ. No joke, some of those samples are pretty darn good.Įverything made by Bootsy. (because of that weakness Synth1 is instead) It specializes in pitchy and harsh digital sounds - if it had better noise functionality it would be my #1 sound effect synth, I think. When I need something Harmless doesn't do(usually more detailed LFO and noise stuff), Synth1 usually does it. There are very few softsynths that match the raw power of this thing's timbres, and it packs in a lot of diversity in the UI. Still my go-to for possibly too many synth sounds. Adequate, but I feel like I could make the process more streamlined. MiniAudicle to test out some audio algorithms in a fast-iteration environment.Īudacity 1.3x and WinLAME as the toolchain to get assets in a game-usable form.

There's still a lot to explore with this technology. SiON for some Flash-based experiments, particularly this prototype tracker UI on top of the built in MML.

The combination of this MIDI controller with any multitrack+MIDI sequencer works marvelously for "things trackers don't do well" - if it wasn't Mixcraft it would probably be FL Studio. Dat tracker UI.it's hard to break away fromĪxis 49 + Mixcraft 5. Post what worked, what didn't work, and what you plan to use.
