loopdokter I’ve had trackspacer since the turn of the year. Does exactly what it says on the tin, only criticism is that it’s a bit resource heavy. Can believe other bits do just as good if not better job.
What, if anything, have people got their eye on for black Friday etc?
I’ll watch for the ableton sale, may upgrade to 11 finally. Looking at morph 2 maybe, but I can’t say there’s too much I need for plugins. Synplant 2 looks really interesting, I just can’t justify spending that much for something I don’t really need.
Nothing. I’m officially plugin-in’ed out. Unless something absolutely ground breaking and earth shattering comes along, realistically speaking I don’t need another plugin until the day I die. I’ve bought certain plugins that I thought I’d use and haven’t used them once.
It kind of helps that I beta test for Universal Audio and get all of the Spark plugins gratis. Check them out if you haven’t already. They’re rapidly porting everything over to be AAX, VST3, AU ready.
I would love for FabFilter’s multiband compressor to go on a steep discount, but that’s a pipe dream. Considering what they charge for their stuff, I’m starting to find equally if not better tools for a much better price.
…fancy the Synplant 2 upgrade, the original synth is so cool, but this looks mental
If I needed another sound design tool, I’d be all over it.
Unbroken1 that’s the spirit
I’ve bought a number of things, not used them for years and then come back to them. Spectrasonics stylus is in that bucket. It feels probably like old technology imho, but am using it loads.
That said there’s other bits which are still on the shelf. I bought a copy of melodyne when it came out and haven’t found a use for it.

I used to use Melodyne loads but I probably haven’t touched it in two years. That said, about a year ago I snagged it on on a deep discount. It’s a good thing to have in your arsenal. I tend to use it more for pitch correction on vocals - which clearly I don’t work a lot with - than its time stretching capabilities.
loopdokter yeah, I used it a little to make time stretched noises - but not much more.
Three remix competions going if anyone fancies a pop - I just want the stems
ArchimedesQ Three remix competions going
Just waiting for @Amps to put a Donk on it and blow everyone else out the water 
Mad_Cyril the dance floor would be a deltoid power zone.
Amps surveying the remains of the dancefloor
ArchimedesQ not sure I’d be able to turn it around in a month. I feel like these comps would do much better if they put a longer time frame on things.
But will be messing around with them.
So, I’ve gone and bought a Syntakt. 303abuser was right all along, it is absolutely fantastic. Never really got on with creating drum patterns in either Ableton/Push or with Maschine. And this little box of tricks is really what I needed to kick start the old creative process again. We’ll see….
I understand that I am talking to myself and no-one will read this. But for anyone thinking of getting a drum machine, then this thing is very easy to learn. Overbridge linking to Ableton was almost a doddle, as I needed to install a previous version due to some issues with the M1 chips. Other than that a massive thumbs up.
Henry …love my TR8s, excellent fun for jamming with, but I’m not using it in production work at all.
Really loving just firing up a drum rack loaded with samples triggered by a MaxforLive sequencer, then editing the shit out of whatever audio comes out.
Really need to circle back to the hardware at some point tho.
Henry Good man, isn’t it fantastic? The only problem is that when I pair it with the digitakt, my other hardware goes pretty much unused. So easy to get ideas down and it all sounds so good. You can maybe argue with the hats, but a little layering goes a long way.
Just starting the ground work for another album and spent this morning sampling from the ST into ableton, adding fx, and resampling. We may have a line on a dub vocalist too, which would be amazing if it pans out.
Also, nice work on this one 
Henry to kick start the old creative process again
Excellent.
I bought d16’s Lush 02 as I had a heavy crossgrade discount really, SH101 based synth. Of course I didn’t need another synth - but it sounds great and has pushed me in another direction, which is just what you want from a new bit of kit.
Henry I understand that I am talking to myself and no-one will read this.
Has everyone seen the new feature on soundcloud which pushes your music to 100 accounts which should have a similar interest. Is an interesting concept - though I’ve only read the holding page on it and not seen it in action.
It usually autoplays some trap / rap when I’ve been demo-ig my own private tracks on there so am not overly optimistic of the accuracy of their data.
