Yep, definitely. Where have you looked?

How about Big Fish Audio?

Or this?

Most of them should come with verse, chorus, fill, etc.

Re: Big names (Lido,Jai Wolf, Ekali,CRNKN) say audio is better

Sorry it's the meter that shows a waveform, I don't know what it's called. I'm using Audiofile's Spectre software. The mixer amplitude readouts in Ableton are identical tho, and I can perceive the difference on my monitors. Trust me I wish this weren't the case, I was just starting to love Simpler/...

Re: How to create long lasting sound?

For an ever lasting sound, set your sample to loop and don't turn your computer off. If it's a synth, turn sustain, decay and release all the way up and lay a brick on your keyboard. You also want to leave your computer on for this. Don't move the brick. You could use tape, but as the years wear on ...

Re: Ableton Live 9 Lite and Volca Keys - help

You don't need the external instrument, you just to send midi to the keys on one midi channel and receive audio back on a separate audio channel. This assumes you have a sound card, or some way to get the audio from your Keys into your computer. If you don't have a sound card you should make that yo...

Re: Help please. Hard decision...

The 18i20 would give us plenty of io so that's not a problem however we don't need it . The added emphasis above should help lead you to your answer. If you get the sound card, which you don't need, you'll be staring at it sitting on its rack, doing nothing, thinking about how much fun you could ha...

Re: Hotswap a sample in Simpler - expectations

Yes, definitely an A vote here as well. If I'm working with Simpler, I'm working with Simpler, it's kind of baffling that it doesn't hold the settings when hot swapping samples.

The animated gif was awesome.

Re: Your Top 3 M4L Devices?

J74 VolcaControl, to hook up my Volcas.
Rozzers Step Sequencer is fun.

That's it for now. Not the most exciting list, I just bought the Max For Live upgrade a few days ago. 8)

Re: Peeple

It appears to be a wrap, there's even been speculation that the entire thing was a hoax. The lady behind it seems slightly unhinged.

Re: The War of Art

I've read this and found it pretty inspiring. Unfortunately the inspiration didn't lead to any real sort of change in my case. :x

It's been a while and I'm probably due for a re-read, definitely nothing wrong with some inspiration. I also have "Do The Work", by the same author.
