Reaper Continues

[next to nothing]

I'm sorry, I could not read that last post because I have a special filter which prevents me from reading anything which comes from a complete idiot.

So who's doing your spellcheking?

If you are seeing the Plugiator sold a lot, it is because it sounds great and doesn't cost too much. That is what people want. It's very simple.

I recently spoke without an editor of a magazine which reviews gear. He had a technical issue with an ASB Minimax. He could get no support for it! If a person who was sent gear for review could not even get support, what kind of support do you think customers get? A long time ago I had an issue with the S/PDIF not working at all. I contacted Creamware by phone and was just told that he never heard of this. A search of the forum revealed other people also had this problem. SC does not fix all bugs. That is a lie. Check out the modular. If you change a patch, it will not load! You can't use the latest shell. That is absurd. They know about this and refuse to fix it.

I never had any issue with the modular as long as if I change a patch I re-new the preset file and save with a new name. That is not a bug, it's exactly as it should work, if you know how is the parametrization in the presets done. There are some bugs in any software, but the point was that CW and SC never got a penny for those they have fixed. We are not talking about technical perfection, that doesn't exist, some bugs might also be very difficult to fix, but if bug fixes are free of not. That makes an important difference for me. My current SX3 (latest and definitive version) has much more issues than Scope. Some of them are solved if I buy some features i don't need. Bug fixes have always been free of charge for Scope. This is the reason why I feel that your harshness is a bit unfair. Perfection is not of this world, but the sharks are not in Siegburg, only sharcs....

This isn't how all the other modules work. They don't cause me to not be able to open my project. This is bad engineering. Other people have complained about it. I lost a project I spent 3 hours working on. You are wrong that this is the way it should work. Admit you are wrong.

One of the most basic and fundamental things software should do is load the last saved file without crashing. That is not user error if it does. Come on, anybody could see that. Don't forgive them for this miserable mistake.

Cubase saves all changes as a part of the project. When I close the SFP, it tells me I made changes, do I want to save them? That is annoying. Another click another click stop the madness. Do it the way Cubase does.

I love, love, love Samplitude, and don't give a shite about dongles, since my lone dongle is networked anyways.
IMO Ripper is a ripper-offer, since they are still copying most of the other hosts on the market.

So there....blah...

CONFESSSS !

btw if M$ would send me that well-deserved paycheck for all the wasted hours and work I've lost due to their shabby OS-or-whatever-it's-called software, I'd be a wealthy guy

cheers, Tom

Nice reply to my joke Braincell. Ye who is never wrong...

I use almost only modulars and it never happened to me to be not able to reload a project. Obviously, knowing how the preset thing works if I change a loaded patch I remove the not perfectly referenced preset list and save the device under a new name.
Sorry Braincell, but Scope is still one of the less buggy musical softwares around and one of the most stable, at least for me.

It is off topic a little but GOD BLESS VICTORIAS SECRET.
We can't play till it's over............I am so upset.

Reaper has a 64-bit audio engine. There is no Vista 64-bit native version as many people think. There is an X64 (XP 64-bit) beta version. I just wanted to clear this up.

The only Sequencer for Vista 64-bit is Sonar or Cubase 4.5 Preview as far as I know.

People say 32 bit sequencers work fine in Vista 64-bit but you will not be able to see the memory if you have over 4 gigs of RAM.

[siriusbliss]

There is definite probability that the Magix-ians are working on 64-bit version of Samplitude/Sequoia as well.

Probably true at this point that nothing is truly 64-bit until the OS and memory allotments are setup for this.

I presume 64-bit is still a bit of marketing fodder at this point

Amen. And - BEEEEEER!

As well as Reaper. Great app and people too.

[pollux]

It has comprehensive MCU and other customisable controller functionality, which Reaper has not.

This has changed lately.. There's an extension to the "stock" MCU plugin which adds tons of useful stuff, and I'm trying to add at the moment plugin and send / receive management capabilities.

I'm going to try it because of the Vienna Symphonic Library supports it:

http://vsl.co.at/en/65/71/84/1050.vsl

I presume that I will get Cubase 4.5 Vista 64-bit preview to work alright, (fingers crossed). I will report back here.

Sadly there are no 64-bit drivers for Scope cards and I am guessing there never will be except maybe for future cards. I am going to try and use the built in S/PDIF on my motherboard with ASIO4ALL (works with 64-bit). I may go with the M-Audio Delta Audiophile 192 at some point. They have Beta Vista 64-bit drivers. I must say I am disappointed with Sonicore for launching the Xite rather than making the drivers which I need. I would be willing to pay for drivers. The next SFP should include this but I'm thinking it is not likely. I'll try to hold off on the M-Audio card if I can.

Great video Greg .

Yeah, they'd also have to get good performance with 64-bit over PCI bus - and I'm NOT going to rely on USB or Firewire at this time - so.... I think there's still a bit of transition period going on here, but that's OK.

Glad you like the video.

afaik, Scope 5 will have 64bit drivers. i'm not privy to any hard information, so don't take this as gospel or official, but....

[braincell]

If that is true, I will be very happy to buy it.

[siriusbliss]

You get Scope 5 (system) for free if you already have 4.5, yes?
