  1. So is Jbridge incorporated in Reaper ? Or is it their own bridge ? I don't use Reaper, so would not know.
  2. You might want to check out Paul Franklin (been pointed out above). [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT_Eg75X5fI[/media]
  3. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1381674928' post='2242103'] Gentlemen, If you are unable to contribute anything positive to this thread I suggest you check Google maps to find the location of your nearest school playground and go battle it out with conkers. [/quote] Or maybe their seven string Conklins.
  4. When you installed, did you right click on the installer and run as admin ? If not uninstall, and try that. Or before uninstalling try this..... Go to your start menu, find Jbridge in programmes list, right click on Jbridge - properties - click on the compatibility tab, then at the bottom check the box for - Run this programme as an administrator. That should do it.
  5. [quote name='Lowender' timestamp='1381618698' post='2241580'] record 16 bars of it yourself and let everyone hear how it REALLY should be done. [/quote] All that will happen here is, that it will turn into a "what DAW did you use" "You should have used Reaper" And the whole thread will be moved down stairs to the recording section - Skol is hiring at the moment.
  6. If you are trying to use x32 bit plugs in a x64 host, you will need a bit bridge. Some DAW's have them, and some don't. Jbridge is the most reliable, from a 3rd party vendor ( and it is highly regarded) and it works for just about any VST/VSTi. Although most software companies are supplying x32 and x64 plugins these days, there is still some great legacy stuff still knocking around (mainly the free stuff) - and Jbridge will be your best friend. It quite often works when some of the hosts bridging don't work. Try the Demo first, if it don't work, it's cost you nothing. Well worth the 14.99 Euros though.

  7. [quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1381603369' post='2241334'] Lol....yes, and if Stan takes a look at the clip he will find the irony! [/quote] [size=4] [/size]
  8. [quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1381581874' post='2240926'] Are you serious [/quote] If you look back over every post in general discussions for the last couple of years, You will find the answer. [size=4] [/size]
  9. I like solo and virtuoso playing (any Instrument), but the OP video is just too messy and disjointed for me. [size=4]I have seen VW a few times with the Flecktones, his grooving and timing in[/size] an ensemble/band situation is out there with the best of them. I understand maybe his solo performances ain't for everyone, but it is always confident and minus flaky clams. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]After seeing the OP video again, I think I will tacet on re evaluating my role as musician,[/font][/color]
  10. Thanks for he tip. Seems like it might be a good one - But I was counting out loud, and my wife thought I sounded like John (Joseph) Merrick.
  11. They all sound an octave lower than written. The player for me.
  12. I think the snake charmer spoils it.
  13. I have been involved in many working situations, where additional enhancements have been used. For me it really depends on the quality of Instruments, and how they are blended in on the track/click track, Augmenting a track because of lack of musicians, like adding auxiliary percussion, adding [size=4]extra blowing/string instruments to pad out or fill in harmony blanks can work well,[/size] [size=4]Tucking in close harmony vocals, another winner. When this is all done with subtleness,[/size] [size=4]good arranging, [/size][size=4]and not over exposing things, [/size][size=4]It can really polish a tune.[/size] [size=4]The only problems for me, are when some folks have trouble playing in time with the click track.[/size] [size=4]Solo singers who need to work with tracks, are a visual turn off (to me) however good, and I lose interest,[/size] [size=4]but it don't seem to bother the paying Joe public, and I suppose, that's what matters.[/size]
  14. [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1380739843' post='2229898'] And bonus votes for anyone who successfully manages to incorporate this sound into their track: [url="http://www.freesound.org/people/felix.blume/sounds/202111/"]http://www.freesound.../sounds/202111/[/url] [/quote] I like the way they break out into a harmony every now and then.... [size=4]It sounds like a couple of bedroom upright players practising their bowing technique without any Rosin... [/size] [size=4]Garry[/size]
  15. [size=4]I believe Skol and Discreet have posted links (somewhere) for creative commons copyright licenses,[/size] maybe just use them to avoid any problems. Garry
  16. No such story or sleepless nights for me, l just looked at the picture of a miserable git sitting in a chair, I then sat at the keyboard and pressed record in Cubase...Then cleaned the mess up afterwards... [size=4]Good one Skol (well put together), and indeed everyone else.[/size] It was between Bilbo and Ambient for me (both hit the emotion of the picture really well imo) Then Dad's epic meandering drew my attention after another listen. [size=4][font=Arial, sans-serif]In the end I voted for Dad - it intrigued me how it went from an Arabic version of the Hovis theme for the intro,[/font] [font=Arial, sans-serif]Into some kind of Desert battle action from Lawrence of Arabia, skipped through a scene that vocally mimicked a cue from[/font] [font=Arial, sans-serif]an Ennio Morricone Spaghetti western without the whip cracks, then finished with a snake charming theme in a market place !,[/font] [font=Arial, sans-serif]The whole thing was totally bazaar, made little sense of the calm motionless aftermath of the picture (IMO), but was real out of the box thinking.[/font][/size] Garry
  17. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1380567222' post='2227238'] Do you use German grip or French when typing, then..? Can you recommend me rosin for my keyboard..? How do you rate the typing key response..? High tension or low..? [/quote] And you missed.... [i][size=4][color=#000000]"Madam, you have between your legs an instrument capable of giving pleasure to thousands and all you can do is scratch it."[/color][/size][/i]
  18. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1380565096' post='2227199'] folk think the cello in my piece was 'played'.[/quote] It was.....................From a member of the Miroslav Orchestra. [size=4] [/size] [size=4]And a very nice expressive sample it is.[/size]
  19. [quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1380544102' post='2226748'] The modern single cut basses are closer to that Strat/P-bass descended shape, only with the space between the upper horn and the neck filled in. [/quote] Yep, quite a few designs like that. I have been using one for over eight years now, the only fretted Bass I have. It is just a five stg Jazz Bass design, with the top horn filled in (a coffee table type of course) Mine is certainly here to stay. [size=4] [/size]
  20. [quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1380369385' post='2224362'] Not the Chinese Elvish who used to have the restaurant the Old Kent Road ? ;-) [/quote] Good grief..Him..! God awful noise in there... Elvis in one ear, and dozens of one tit hanging out tanked up hen parties in the other. Great times...... [size=4] [/size]
  21. Busy Bass ? Maybe.... But I do like the way all the tunes have been reharmonized and rearranged on this concert,
  22. There could be a sticky on all things MIDI, Like tips on programming, what CC#'s do, and how to use them, what they mean etc. All the stuff people get hung up on regarding it. Good Libraries and Synths could be in there as well. Plenty of links out there that would be good stacked together in one place. Garry
  23. [quote name='brensabre79' timestamp='1380277263' post='2223093'] [size=4]You should check out the Walter Piston book on orchestration if you can. In many ways it has superseded the RK[/size] [/quote] I have a Hard back copy of this (handed down) and yep it is great. I noticed a couple of times on Ebay in the past, that it fetched over 300 quid... [size=4] [/size] [size=4]Garry[/size]
  24. Great playing from him, and the Voices of East Harlem sound stonking (as do the rest of the band) Nice post.
