About the same here, though I liked the "clicky-ness" of the claps; it's noticeable but "cheeky" in the right sort of way maybe. Also FWIW just listening on PC speakers in the office rn. Kick needs a bit more bass to it, or I'd try a different sample. It's not "horrid" just strikes me as...

At work, on my lunch, over these PC speakers that sounds as good as anything I hear on the radio. Good mix and good track. Not sure on the guitar solo BUT BUT BUT that could just be because I'm a very old man and I don't get it. It's probably "hip" and "rad" for the young people.

Actually their Rock Standard seems somehow closer and really isn't bad! The Rock Legend pack though has that delicious skin noise and just the right sort of 'boom' without being too wooly. I'm sure somewhere in fiddling with transients for days the sound is there. If anyone out there though has...

Thanks for that. Did mention in the OP but actually bought V1 and V2 from Yurt. It's close enough but it's not quite there (bit too much 'verb on it all.) Cheers though.

I really don't know if it's ok to ask at this point but the worst that can happen is someone tells me I'm a pleb for using samples I guess! Morning all. Looking for some samples of a large 26" kick. Thinking Bonham-esque maybe, have lofty ideals of the Pendulum Witchcraft/Come Alive sort of...

Just found out the Imager plugin that comes with Cubase does this all gracefully and with a decent level of control and is everything I wanted and is free and I don't think (to my shame) I've ever even opened the thing...

Thanks both, actually did spy that TP Bassline one, but wasn't sure if there was anything slimmer out there in the world. Usually just fine with the Amek CS but the old DAW sure is getting on a bit!

Hello all - just wondering if anybody had any suggestions. I'm after a VST (if it exists) that'll mono-ise anything below a certain frequency, and also control stereo width. Kinda like the two dials on the BX AMEK 9099 channel strip: Anyone know anything that'll do that? Free/cheap/light on...

Thanks everyone - I'll revert I think to the mono channel then for amp sims, give that a go.

Hello all. Something I've been curious about. Mostly produce punk if I'm doing distorted guitars. I'll generally double-track, hard panned (though sometimes quad-track if I'm feeling frisky, which will then be one pair hard panned and the other 75% each side.) Then each channel (generally) goes...

Thanks all! Yes leaning towards the MOTU M4 and very grateful for the opinions. And yes to be clear I mean a dedicated DAW to be install Windows and sequencer, get it updated, then use offline from the point it's stable onwards if at all possible. Room (and likely the whole rest of the setup)...

Cheers. I got as far as reading some folks had managed to get theirs working with their last UAD license file (which I still have) so I'll say I have half a fighting chance! I wouldn't otherwise sweat it but they're the Mackie cards which came with the 1176LN and LA2A compressors. Wish me luck!

Haha thanks - I went searching (and searching and searching) and have (finally) got the bits for an i7 DAW with a few PCI slots in it. Will be happy if I can get them running but if not meh, I tried. Cheers. :)

Hello everyone. Looking to set up a small home studio (imagine that lol) and debating audio interfaces. DAW will be a dedicated DAW (I think this is still the "done thing" in having a dedicated DAW that does nothing else, certainly was back in the day) on W10 and running Cubase Artist 12...

Hello all! Thought I'd introduce myself as I intend to take FULL advantage of the resources and community here. :) Merry (early) Christmas. :) Had a home studio around Cubase SX2 back in the day, then "real life" got in the way. Now a little older and looking to get back into the hobby. We're...
