Re: Micro House/Romanian Minimal - production tips

Either I'm getting old and out of touch or "sub genres" are getting ridiculous! "Micro House" and "Romainian Minimal"?

Re: Tips for Making a Solid Sub-Bass

I suppose it's worth clarifying here that what I'm looking for isn't so much of a sub-bass that's working in conjunction with other bass synthesizers but that works on it's own and encompasses a very heavy low end. Maybe a better way to phrase what I'm looking for is a bass with a very strong sub-b...

Re: OSX 10.11 El Capitan Compatibility

I never understand why people upgrade their operating system straight away...?

I always wait a few months before even considering upgrading.

Re: Tips for Making a Solid Sub-Bass

I like to keep my sub bass completely clean. All the character and timbre are in the "mids". So with that in mind my sub bass is just a simple sine wave (maybe with a bit of pitch envelope modulation). No, distortion or saturation or anything else that adds harmonic content. Then it's just...

Re: CPU usage problems with Serum, in Live 9 on Windows 10.

Looks like it's just a glitch with the cpu usage meter. I made a project and stacked up lots of plugins and didn't get any drop outs or glitches and the cpu meter didn't deem to go up that much (although it did still jump around sporadically).

Re: CPU usage problems with Serum, in Live 9 on Windows 10.

It doesn't just seem to be Serum. The CPU meter jumps around when using Massive and Reaktor too...?

Re: CPU usage problems with Serum, in Live 9 on Windows 10.

Yeah a bit. I've just checked the task master and I've noticed that mm virus software McAfee scanner service seems to be using a lot of CPU processing. Maybe it's that? Not sure how I might disable it...?

CPU usage problems with Serum, in Live 9 on Windows 10.

I'm having problems with serum and live 9 running on windows 10 (64bit) I'm getting massive cpu usage when using just a single instance of serum and nothing else in the project. I load up a pad patch and play a chord and the cpu meter in Live starts jumping around from 20% to 60%. It's a brand new l...

Re: New MacbookPro or Imac

@TO: perhaps also consider buying a PC. I have also been a mac user since about 10 years and really love the OS and everything. But macs aren`t what they once were. You have the same problems with them as with windows pcs nowadays. Also windows came a long way. And the difference in pricing is just...

Re: Max 4 Live 7 request old java install..

I had the same message come up with the older version of Live and Max. I just installed the older version of java and everything works fine.
