Hey everyone,
I do product development at the company I work for. For funsies, why don't you guys recommend some things you think should exist that totally don't and maybe I can investigate having my company manufacture them.
We have a couple new products to be released shortly which should free up some additional capital to put straight back into developing more products. I'm being for real this is literally my full time job so something you recommend that could work could very well get produced. I don't eff around and if something will work I'll push the living hell out of it. We have stores that carry our product all over the world although most our business is over the internet and phone.
Wow, when did the back-end database (and front-facing UI that we see) become so utterly BROKEN? There are so many problems and errors and issues now with trying to something as simple as putting a new song up I almost don't want to use this site anymore. What a pain in the ass.
Newgrounds, whoever did the coding for that shit needs to be let go. Just saying. It's god-awful and buggy as fuck. It used to just "work". Never ever had any problems before the redesign. Anyway. Food for thought.

Unless you count Session and Action Strings and countless other libs that NI actually does do themselves.
Normally, this is what you need a monitor controller/preamp for. Something like this:

This is a very good point.
Anyone who thinks 3D printed guns are somehow a threat to anyone anywhere has never used a 3D printer before. 3D printers are not like inkjets, they are incredibly finicky and take shit-tons of work to get dialed in to where you can actually make ANYTHING much less parts for a 3D printed gun. I have a solidoodle 3rd gen at my work and I have fought with that thing constantly.
Essentially, the cross-section of people who can make 3D printed guns and terrorists who wish they had them is non-existent. Also, bullets are still (and probably always will be) metal... so the potential "threat" level goes from being non-existent to "if you think they should ban 3D printed gun .stls from the internet, you are a complete asshat".

You sir. I approve.

I'd say Vember Audio's Surge is easily the best digital softsynth in my arsenal.

Like for example, if this pack had a kick drum in it, if your entire song is just this kick drum every 4 seconds that would be illegal because somebody could download your "song", cut out the kick drum from it and then they have the sample.
If you put anything else on it, any other sounds, then it's fair game. Hell you could even just layer sounds from the same pack on top of each other and it would still equate to the same thing. So yeah i'd think your stuff would be fine.
^^ This is correct.
At the same time, it's a bit of a moot point in certain areas, because plenty of times you'll end up with a break in a song or soundtrack where you want like a "sad horns" effect with nothing else in the mix to emphasize the cue. In a case like that, what else are you supposed to do? Use a different library that doesn't have such restrictions? That's silly. Also, technically as long as there is some form of "noise" in the "mix" you're covered in a legal sense (EULAs or what are referred to as "click-wraps" or "shrink-wrap" contracts are often overturnable if they are stupid, viz. how people in the Europe can transfer any software they want now legally regardless of what an EULA says).

Selcuk Bor (MaestroRage), JP Neufeld (Rig), Matt Cavender (XKore), Milkman Dan, Nick Perrin and Andrew Aversa (ZirconMusic) are likely the most notable. xKore tours the world now and most people who know anything about dubstep are familiar with him. Zircon is probably the second most well known (has done a lot of film/tv stuff and runs his own sound design business).
But there's no-one truly pop/hip-hop/dance mainstream famous outside of xKore right now (AFAIK).
I meant to say Battery 4 ADDS 70 kits to the existing arsenal. That's like a whole other drum sampler being added. I don't think it had that many kits to begin with.

I think waiting for Komplete 8 regular to get down to 300 bucks is a good way to get mosta the standards. Stores will have extras from before that they want to sell off.
I dunno you guys. First off - Komplete 9 (vs 8) adds the SSL bus tools, session strings, Battery 4 (which has like 70 different kits and looks absolutely SEX) and Monark. I could give less of a shit about the new synth, but the upgrade to Battery 4 is HUGE, I really really want session strings and the SSL bus tools are no joke either.
I was really dumb and just bought the upgrade to komplete 8 (it was half-off @ $99 at guitar center) so I'm like kind of kicking myself that for an extra $50 I could have gotten the SSL bus tools, session strings, Battery 4 and monark. UGH. Definitely worth $50 if not another extra $150.
Holy shit!!! Where did you come from bro???
Did you really write this stuff?? Dear god. I haven't heard music this good in a LONG TIME.
Damn. Ok.
You're a prodigy. This is f**king incredible. Random as sh*t for me to even click on this, and then also totally f**king unexpectedly brilliant music. Astounding really.
Before this gets locked....
"Drama In Spain" was really lovely. Wow. Normally I don't take time to even hear this kind of thing out... but that was, special.
Some more basic stuff
Rubbing alcohol and any rag works fine. Won't damage the metal or plastic on the connector.
kind of a love song i guess

I've purchased from them in the past (bought enchoir and phenome). Although I could never get enchoir to work quite right I think the author released a fix for it and it should be pretty stable by now. The other instruments are supposed to be pretty impressive so I went ahead and ordered. At $15 it's a definite no-brainer as they aren't copy-protected so you don't have to depend on C/R schemes that disable the use of the plugin when a manufacturer disappears. Shortnoise had some bad-ass demos.
Time to set the record straight:

Watch and learn :)
Seriously, everyone here who has an interest in anything audio-related owes it to themselves to absorb the topics in that video to avoid becoming part of the next wave of unabashedly ignorant pseudo-scientists who have no grasp on the actual theory behind engineering concepts like he explains in that video. If you're wondering who that is, it's the guy that invented the .ogg format.
People who don't take an interest in actual science (totally unlike the guy on that video who really really knows what the hell he is talking about, enough to understand how to use high-end scopes and signal generators correctly) are the reason we have such incredibly asinine proponents of 24/192 playback formats (many of which assume their fanciful B.S. viewpoints have some magical basis in reality because they "use their ears" or something which similarly has zero to do with the scientific method or any form of actual engineering).
/end rant
Please guys, let's stop the vicious cycle of ignorance as it relates to audio topics. It starts here.

It's probably all for the better. My mixing techniques are so unconventional and extreme they are endorsed by 90% of radical terrorist organizations.

No honor? Your response doesn't really make any sense. I never knew there was an "honorable" way to mix. It's not exactly an artform crafted and conceived by shoguns.

This is actually how I get some of the best sounding piano lines. I actually prefer doing it this way because it effectively "ducks" the reverb during loud parts and gives the element of much more dynamic and powerful playing (extra spaciousness during quiet parts and extra clarity/note-definition in loud parts).
This is what you need.

That's what I sell my own stuff through.

Why the hate on guitar center? You expect someone making $10/hr. to know music theory on a level of world-class pianists?
