  1. Just met Robert Irvine. Highlight of my day!

  2. Any links to youtube videos *posted as purely links* so far are displaying a youtube embed; should just be listed as a regular link to minimize load times.
  3. It's a reasonable estimate. In other words, if 'enough' people care, then it's more practical to do so. But if it's "less than 5%" or so, as you say, it doesn't sound practical, the way you made it sound. And then you say "0,1% is problematic" (or 0.1% or whatever you meant) when it's unreasonable on the part of Image-Line "alienating" the user base? 0 to 1% is almost nothing---it just made your stance sound less motivated (i.e. it's like you said "if it's less than 5%, people should care; heck, even if it's 0 or 1%, people should care"). Yes, they SHOULD care, but practically, would you expect that they would? About 1%? That's Neblix's point. Blunt, but there you go.
  4. What audio system do you have? The audio system is quite a major component in your workflow, and it decides how you believe your music sounds. And about mixing with those built-in effects off, if you need to do that to improve them, then sure. If they are already good as they are, then take off what doesn't make it sound suitable to the context rather than taking off everything. Sometimes the built-in reverb sounds better than the external reverb you have.
  5. Not bad at all! Obviously some mechanical sequencing on the piano, and that bass at 0:33 was pretty far back (and harmonizing with itself? ), but it definitely got more personalized at 1:30 with the neat chord progression and at 2:23 where the rhythms and harmonies are played with more. Sounds like you locked into a good groove at 3:13. Good work.
  6. The only thing I'd say about that is, if you wear them, do they make your ears scrunch up a bit if your ears are too big?
  7. If I find myself stuck into a certain structure, I try humming what I want to happen next, so I don't end up copying and pasting so much. It tends to be a sensible direction for my musical writing. But it might not work for everyone (I sing).
  8. Am I the only one who sees an unsaid joke? You're "stoked". Your new system can "shoot lasers". You use lasers in Raman Spectroscopy, creating STOKES shifts and ANTISTOKES shifts from the central Rayleigh line. ...No? (I r geek) Okay.
  9. Yeah, I get your frustration, but I don't feel that way about the automation system in FL. Sure, you can't literally highlight points on an automation clip and paste them within the same clip, but I'm okay with that. I'm used to it, and a bunch of the keyboard shortcuts, plus I tend to click around quickly. It would be a nice feature to be able to do that, though, for people who are still getting used to it.
  10. Well, it might not be obvious, but you can copy and paste the automation clip data (FL 11 at least): 1. Left click the upper left of the automation clip (the squiggle next to the name). Click "Channel settings". 2. Click the down arrow on the upper left, then Articulator > Copy/Paste state. C+P the whole thing as it is. There ya go. You can also reassign one clip to multiple knobs/sliders/etc. (a different method)
  11. Well, there's one great advantage to Make Unique; it retains the event edits you do, and you don't have to re-record them, just modify them (unless you want to re-record). I use Make Unique pretty often, and I find it keeps my workflow going.
  12. Happy birthday, man!

  13. Nice underwater, glassy textures in the beginning! I love the ambient soundscape you've created here. Cool synth solo too. I agree, I like the staccato run because it stands out.
  14. You could accomplish a similar effect from just pitch bending the VST. Or, you could use a long glide/portamento time on overlapped notes in legato mode. There are ways around it.
  15. what? You can pause a movie, just like you can pause a video; just press the pause button. What are you getting at here?
  16. If you have a RegKey from buying FL, you can register it, and after that, Sytrus should be fine.
  17. I'm not sure what the file type is, but WinAmp is a nice media player that can play many file types, including WMV, AVI, etc.
  18. To be honest, I think you have a good point here... on a case-by-case basis. In my case, I tried it once sometime last year, writing a motif into noteflight.com, and I ended up expanding it as I worked on it more in the DAW itself. It's not done yet, but it's going to be on an album for sure! https://www.noteflight.com/scores/view/3829339a06f1f5fefe6c1978a5ac8a4dd86e0894 (I think I wrote this in like an hour before a class, too; thought of it the night before as I was walking to the car) So I would definitely recommend you try that if it suits you. --- But you don't HAVE to stay away from the DAW until you write. Sometimes I just sit down and write something because I find an inspiring sound. Whatever works for you.
  19. The ones you use in the playlist? They're still there in FL 11. (the only thing I did was merge some FL 10 graphics with FL 11, but that's because I don't like the FL 11 VST channel fonts. )
  20. Well, think of video as audio+picture. You can't examine audio with your ears when it's paused, but you can still look at a picture under the same time pausing conditions.
  21. I'd rather stay with FL 11, honestly. At least, if they want to 'hide' the Layer tool. =P
  22. Midnight at Club Corel was so good. Then I realized a collaborator was Shnabubula. Then it all made sense.
