Psyko/Acoustics.
1. re...my accent.
no probs mate. i just use the cockney accent for giggles
on some songs.
my granparents were both cockneys.
n i spent my youngish years all in cockney land n mods n rockers n spivs...lol.
what amuses me bout some songs today trying to do the
"brit thing" (often falsely imho..)...is we were "punk" way back in 69..lol..
in the uk.
yes....i DID also see THE WHO live with keith moon as the drummer.
may he rip. a fab night..i'll always remember..totally wild.
actually i think ive become canadianised...even say eh ?
lol.
2. re elastic/midi.
are u not aware a few releases back ELASTIQUE
was implemented in reaper.
i dont know when you last tried reap..but there have been many changes.
includeing midi. so i would try the latest release which i understand
will also slave to time code.
3. powertracks(or as users call it ptw.).
god .where do i start.
for years the midi feature list has been huge.
includeing notation editing. midi guitar fretboard.
various editors etc.
it would take me pages to describe the features.
a new feature in ptw that folks seem to love is the ability to
id chords in midi/audio/mp3 etc files.
(read the details at pgmusic.com )
reaper i consider my king for audio and ptw for midi.
(tho ptw has some neat audio features too...like a real time analyser built in
and various other real time fx like its echo chorus i use in reap.
cos low resource useage fx. i also really like the ptw noise gate for taming noisy guitar amps.))
now there is a new trend with pg products.
real instruments. for example check out the real drums in ptw and band in a box.
the latter is like haveing a back up band on tap.
i notice several reap users are useing biab in conjunction with reap.
ie..useing biab to quickly generate bed traks....then import into reap n add
up front traks.
check out the biab demo links in the biab user forum at pg n see what you think.
loads of demos in many styles.
just try the demos of ptw and biab at pgmusic.com and see
what floats your boat.
youll also notice a thread i started in the powertracks user forum
at pg bout achieving rock solid midi timing.
no flangeing etc. the replies are rather interesting.
i started this open (hopefully pleasant) discussion there cos
ive read so many threads on the net about various probs folks have with accurate midi timing.
particularly the BS (imho.) that the pc isnt capable.
and youll notice the replies in that thread agree with me.
long live "torronna"...n "the leafs"...lol.
peace.
