If so, a really good deal going on here for REX or RMX Expansion packs, or you can get both on an extra deal. http://vstbuzz.com/deals/96-off-ultimate-rmx-30k-bundle-worth-2400/

Seems like there is a deal on until the end of March for KK S61 + Komplete 10 Ultimate. £760.00 plus free delivery. http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/computer-music/midi-equipment/105209-native-instruments-komplete-kontrol-s61-with-komplete-10-ultimate

If you are talking about transcriptions, this site is good. Very accurate parts and plenty of style variation. http://thebassment.info/transcriptions.html

If it is this, looks like you have to go the US App Store. http://www.macworld.com/article/1153892/looptastichd.html Website. http://www.djpuzzle.com/looptasticloops.html

A couple of things. The Presonus Studio One V3 software that come with the Interface, does not have support for VST fx and instruments, you have to pay extra for that. Although it comes bundled with a couple of internal synths and some fx. The iPad App works as a controller and was just updated yesterday. So was Studio One, and it's a pretty impressive upgrade (my boys have it). TouchOSC for iPad will control Reaper (or any DAW for that matter), not sure if there are many templates out there, but it's pretty easy to set them up. I have done this with Cubase and it works a treat. http://hexler.net/software/TouchOSC (£5.00) You would need the midi bridge as well, along with the software for your Puter (both fee links at the bottom of the above page link). TouchOSC is one of the best controller apps about. Excellent for Midi cc# controlling, along with audio of course.

Voted - Good stuff people.

I think it all stemmed from when Nathan East was playing while he was dancing. He certainly played on pretty much all the studio stuff. And when someone was playing for him, wasn't it because he had some illness? The gig with Nate East on. http://youtu.be/mfagqCcyE6g

[quote name='Stickman' timestamp='1456137083' post='2985648'] I don't normally weigh in on these discussions but I had to address the notion of this video being 'sped up'. These two players are not bedroom shredders - Gergo is Gary Willis's current drummer and has played with the likes of DiMeola, Mintzer, Bullock etc. whilst Mohini is the bass player for AR Rahman's band (a very prolific composer and producer, holder of numerous music awards), she has also performed with John Mclaughlin's former bandmates Zakir Hussain and Naveen Kumar (the latter of whom I have also had the honour of playing live with) - neither of them have the need to impress through any fakery. Both artists have been playing since the tender age of 3 and have put serious hours in to their craft. [/quote] Exactly.

[quote name='geofio' timestamp='1456094753' post='2985403'] Would not use a pc for recording , Mac is the only way to go for serious recording, there are always issues with pc been there done that. no matter the power of the pc/lapotop they just don't hack it for multitrack recording don.t waste your money on a pc is my 20 years recording music advice!!!! [/quote] They are both reliable and are often used together these days. A popular set up in the media music world, especially with composers. PC [i]or[/i] Mac running VSL VE5 slaved with Mac [i]or[/i] PC, Anything from two machines via Ethernet upwards in combinations of Mac [i]and[/i] PC. Or even just one Puter (PC or Mac) running VSL. All FX and Soft Synths are then hosted outside of the DAW, resulting in no CPU hit on the DAW. Things have changed a lot in twenty years.

Musician. That's whats on my tax returns.

[quote name='4stringslow' timestamp='1455870498' post='2983050'] Given that the majority of Beatles songs were Lennon/McCartney collaborations (even in their later period there was still an element of collaboration) I think it fair to say that, broadly, they were better together than apart. [/quote] I kinda agree, although 'Wings' were a pretty big selling successful band. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_McCartney_and_Wings

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1455594492' post='2980532'] I think your missing my point. All I'm saying is, when a bass chat member asks a more than elementary question about anything band related my answer for a 17 year old is going to be different from my answer to a 60 year-old member most of the time. For example, to a 17 year old I might say; "Sounds like a good idea, you have your whole life ahead of you, go for it." Same question to a 60 year old my answer might be; "You do realize your 60 years old?" Blue [/quote] Hey Blue, I presume you are talking about after gig party antics with the groupies?

[quote name='Painy' timestamp='1455489030' post='2979617'] Well I can already confirm the Squier is a definite keeper. I've owned basses that cost well over 4 grand and played basses costing up to 3 times that on plenty of occasions and this bass is, for me, the perfect example of how all those big price tags mean absolutely nothing. This bass just sits in my hands in a way that no other bass ever has and I've managed to get the action down to a fag-papers thickness with no fret buzz and without having to touch the truss rod. Can't wait to hear it at full gig volume now [/quote] Look forward to seeing it next week in Basses For Sale.
