The Musikmesse 2015 makes me feel like this: "Yippie, finally I can buy tons of innovative, re-issued analog synthesizers, huge and bulky analog modular synthesizers that waste so much lovely space in my studio and increase the total amount on my power consumption bill. Wow, that's what I was waitin...

eXode, I do highly respect your point of view as an experienced and skillful sound designer that you are, but in this particular case I got to object. Although I'ver never owned or used a V8, I speculate that you can emulate a V8 very well by using a stack of Thors within a single Combinator so that...

Thanks for your post. Well, I didn't notice what you've described. Question: Are you running R8.2 on a Mac or on a Windows driven PC? If you're on a Mac then I suggest to use OSX's Disk Utility in order to repair your HD's permissions. If that doesn't help then try the maintenance tool Yosemite Cach...

It depends on which distribution media you're delivering your music for, I'd say. Nowadays, in times of online distribution and other high-res media (let's put the mp3, AAC, etc. formats aside for a moment) the necessity for extra-dithering is not as big as it used to be, let's say, 10 to 15 years a...

There are so many awesome monitor speakers in almost any price range so that it's not easy to make a general recommendation. Well, I've put my money on KRK's Expose' E8B , which was an investment that I've never regretted. Those monitors really kick a**. But I also like Neumann's KH line, MEG's (Mus...

I got two favorite songs that became famous through Disney movies. The first one is "Colors of the wind" in "Pocahontas", but only the German version ("Farbenspiel des Winds"), sang by Jennifer Rush, which I find far better than the original English version that was performed by Vanessa Williams bec...

Hi everyone, just a thought: since the value of the EURO has made a steep decline within the last couple of months, we're are facing an 'equalization' of the value of both currencies, the US$ and the EURO (current exchange rate: 1 € = 1.06085 US$, Friday, March 13th, 2015 - 12:00 high noon). Many b...

Normen, you can achieve the same thing by using your own RE, VMG-01, and two Synapse's GQ-7 EQs to emulate Blauert's directional bands.

Hi folks, just to share some personal joy today: As a longtime fan and user of MOTU hard- and software, I'm happy about the latest developments and products that were announced and shown by MOTU at the NAMM 2015. Only a couple of weeks ago, I received my first two MOTU AVB units, namely the 1248 and...

That's what I call a successful move - from the PUF to this new place, feels virtually like breathing fresh air. It's a pleasure to see that many members that the PUF are gathering here, including PPH's Mattias. Hopefully many other PUF members will follow. Have a nice Sunday, folks!
