    How to get faster attack/response time from an amp?

    I'm surprised there aren't more gut shots of the internals on those amps. They are absolute works of art on the inside. I've never seen an amp so beautifully laid out on the inside.

    How to get faster attack/response time from an amp?

    I'd be interested in seeing Diezel specs on this stuff. The Herbert was really 'fast'. But massive bottom and was darker/smoother in tone.

    How to get faster attack/response time from an amp?

    Was thinking about trying one of these, but considering my biggest thing I dislike about amps is voltage sag, I think you just cured me of wanting to try this one out. Was my biggest complaint about the Rivera and the Recto. Saggy, squishy attack. Some people call it bounce. I want it to...

    How to get faster attack/response time from an amp?

    There are a few things I'd look at. Boost, bass control settings to shore up low end for what I'd call the 'tight' sound. Speaker is going to have some to do with it. Some amps are designed to work with specific speakers. The voltage you see returning from the expected load will affect how...

    I'm entirely inexperienced with Ableton. With Bitwig being basically the same and being entirely cross platform, I still favor it since Ableton is not Linux friendly. Bitwig has software instruments built in to the program. So I'm not entirely unequiped. I also have a Linux friendly...

    I think its mainly the VSTs that are the issue. Ableton will crash if a VST does. Where, as someone stated earlier, Bitwig sandboxes the VSTs. So a VST can crash, but the project will stay open and continue running. I'm not necessarily interested in working for people on productions. And...

    I just bought a Laptop for 1100 that has an 8 core Ryzen 7, 64gb of ram, 2tb ssd, and an RTX 4050. I couldn't have got that level of performance from a Mac for the same money.

    There are some custom distros for audio. However, if I'm documenting an idea during a break at work, switching to a different distro defeats the purpose. However, I don't think I'd be recording audio to demo an idea. Probably just plugging my MIDI keyboard in.

    Even and MacOS Windows can have latency issues.

    The live potential is why I'm doing a trial of Bitwig right now, since its designed by a former Ableton developer as an Ableton alternative. It has integrated synths and drums as Ableton does. So I can technically work entirely in Bitwig should I want to. I need to spend some more time with...

    I've used Cubase in the past. Reaper, Ableton, and Bitwig all work on Apple hardware as well. Reaper and Bitwig both work in Linux as well. Which would be my preferred OS. But you're extremely limited on VSTs and interface drivers there. But there's been an uptick in Linux support for...

    I'm not planning on collaborating. Unless its with my buddy who lives across town. He's got a whole ass 48 channel Digi Design console in his house and a mac tower. We'll use his gear. For my stuff, I'm wanting something that can be my band live and while streaming. Logic isn't great for...

    Interested in switching DAWs.

    Yeah, I think so too. I got a track armed yesterday and had neural running just fine through it. The interface wants to arm stereo by default and take both inputs. Need to figure out how to make it default to mono and then select the input I want. From there, it seems to be pretty self...

    Interested in switching DAWs.

    Yeah, Bitwig does almost all the same stuff as live for sequencing and looping. Again, made by one of the people that started Ableton. I like the linux flexibility. In other words, if I'm working my day job and get an idea, I don't have to reboot my machine. I can scratch it out, put the...

    I somehow missed your response earlier. Live crashes when you do a lot of synthesis through it apparently. Bitwig does not because its apparently solved a resource issue that's in Ableton. At least thats how I understand it. As for music, it'll likely be synthesis heavy with some...

    I've used Reaper a little be before already. I know I'll be able to use it decently well. That's why I've got it installed. Just in case I don't like the others. I've got a 30 day trial of Bitwig right now. Still figuring out how to arm audio tracks. Its not as intuitive in that regard...

    I know pro tools. I had to learn it in my production class in music school. I don't like it. Great for an engineer. But I'm a composer and a performer. The reason I'm interested in Ableton and Bitwig is their live performance use cases in addition to being something you can use to record.

    So, most of my adult life I've recorded on Apple stuff and I've chosen Logic Pro as my medium for recording. The computer I just bought is not an Apple though. So, I'm looking at other options. And since I'm looking at other options, I've though about just completely throwing the traditional...

    To those that have moved on from a Tube amp to a SS/modeling rig.

    Same. Sounds too much like produced tracks/solo’d tracks from a recording. Which outside the mix sound thin. Sounds fantastic with a band through a PA or in a recording. But it’s not like having the cab at your back. That’s why I like the idea of a QC, and it’s multiple outputs and routing...

    NGD: Oni Essi 8 in bloody Red Gum and silver

    Those were definitely the days here. There were more active members. There was more drama. More talking about stuff. I think the whole Facebook forum thing killed it. I’m not on Facebook anymore. Way too toxic.
