Re: worst vsts

its has nothing to do with my computer. I'm using a dedicated audio PC with a quadcore sandybridge i7 & 12GB of ram. Don't get me wrong, its probably the best sounding synth I own, but the CPU load is just unbearable at times, and I'm certainly not the only ones whos experienced this..

Re: worst vsts

Unfortunately gotta throw Diva on this list for me. Sounds absolutely incredible, but the CPU load is beyond ridiculous at times.

Re: Evolution UC33

I have one but I use it for production/live purposes, not DJing. Faders at mapped to channel volumes and the knobs either control sends or effects.

Re: what point do you give up on a song? after 1, 2 or 6 years?

I actually think that untitled track is pretty interesting. Not my style, but not too shabby nonetheless. Also, I like the sig, at least its fun and unique, instead of the typical "heres my logo - visit my blog".

Re: How Do You Setup Your Drums?

YOU COULD not use the drumRack and group the Sampler to an Instrument Rack as you had mentioned. I guess the thing that trips me up about all of this is the actual keyboard coming in where the keys play all of the kicks. If the keys play all of the kicks, then what are you selecting with a Macro? T...

Re: How Do You Setup Your Drums?

You asking for a few different things here in regards to how drumRacks work. ALSO, what are you using to trigger the "Selected," a drum pad or the same keys on the keyboard? It takes tricky routing to play all your keyboard keys across kicks, AND have a selection for kicks. If you drop in...

Re: How Do You Setup Your Drums?

Looking for a little guidance if anyone has any suggestions... Currently I'm doing the sampler chain selector trick for my drums.

Re: Mixing on Headphones

For what its worth, I do the majority of a track with headphones (TMA-1 Studio), paired with the Redline Monitor Plugin. When I'm more or less finished, I'll give it an audition on monitors (HS80m). Seems to work for me, but something else might work better for you, try a few combinations and see wh...
