  • Birthday 11/30/1999
  1. I had a Fatar Studio 900 from 1997-2010; I really liked it and at 45-46 pounds I imagine it would be more like a SL88 grand. I tried out the Arturia MK88II and liked it, Had a PX350 and returned it as the speakers weren't loud enough but liked the sounds and feels. I am almost conisdering getting a PX6000 or 5000 to use as a midi controller.
  2. I am wondering if the Phils are essentially playing for a wildcard spot again in hopes of upsetting the Braves in the playoffs. I am glad we have pretty much the same lineup as the team chemistry has been excellent the last 2 years. Looking forward to my first game next Sunday. I had opening day tickets but sold them due to the only event I would pass baseball up for- Billy Joel.
  3. I purchased 2 years ago a M1 with 64gb and 2 TB- I find it helpful to have those specs for when I am in Studio one and have multiple different VST's available on different tracks. I would have gone to 4TB but at that point had spent enough. I was originally using my normal Intel 16gb computer for music but would have dropouts sometime. I do have a external thunderbolt SSD, I am wondering would I still have a seamless experience if I put any libraries on that.
  4. I've had one for 3 years now and it integrates nicely with my Vsts and I especially like the transit controls. I almost wished I had gotten the 88 key version; although I think I would have preferred a higher Fatar action . I had a 20% coupon I think and paid around $450 new. I will need to learn how to assign the IK drawbars to the sliders,
  5. pleased the Eagles got in after being 2-5 however there was just nothing from them out of the gate yesterday. However they did get the 7th spot. I wasn't please when the NFL added a 17th game and 7th spot; it dliutes it too much. I could understand and even 18 and 8 playoff spots so that perhaps the top 2 seeds could get a bye. I played the game (not well whatsoever) and sometimes long for the 80's when games were at 1 and 4 only (other than MNF) and winning the division meant something
  6. I think being around 50 vs 25- I have noticed the following things- I wish I had more time to use what I had. I do notice for example, the Korg Nautilus vs the Kronos (even though related) is not a 10 year jump in technology whereas in the 90's 5 years was significant. Also, mostly use Addictive Keys and Toontrack EZ Drummer (version 2 but still similar) for the last 8 year.
  7. I've had my ES8 for 6 years now- the first time I played it I decided to order one- I was blown away by the action for a 48 pound piano. In particular I like the SK5 piano. I spoke to Kawai and what amazed me was the Rhodes was actually sampled in an employee's garage from what I remember (or perhaps brought to wherever to record). I haven't heard the ES920 yet but am sure it is great as well- I think the reduced weight could make a difference in transporting it.
  8. I will try 7-Zip later- @aellison I wrote to Korg as well but sometimes it takes them a few days and they could be off for the holiday as well. Is there a difference between loading the samples via KSC/RAM & Virtual Memory? It seems I can have the preload and perhaps one or two of the others loaded simultaneously at the same time. Is the limitation based on the Sampling RAM or something else? I am usually pretty good technically but their manuals aren't that clear or my patience isn't great.
  9. Thanks wd8dky I am going to try that today. Also, I am perhaps missing something - to get the other ex's to work I am getting a message "samples not loaded"- was there something I was missing when I installed and authorized the sounds? thanks
  10. I do realize not everyone likes the GHS action, but the Yamaha P125 works for me when I go out as it weighs 25 pounds. I feel as though this particular model has a good sound and decent built in speakers as well as 1/4" outs
  11. I ordered a MacBook Pro that will come in March, this is for a milestone birthday year as well. Went with 64gb and 2TB ssd.
  12. I am like middle age with a milestone birthday next year. The one thing I don't like is the decrease in classic rock concerts I would be seeing due to time moving on . I am hoping social security benefits dont decrease by 2035-2036- heard they might raise the payroll tax rate along the way.
  13. Currently I am using a Lenovo I7- 16gb but the hard drive setup from 3 years ago has a 128gb SSD boot and 1Tb data- the 128gb is almost filled up. I moved to Presonus 26C interface and Studio one with a Arturia controller and really like it. However, I really won't be able to add any more to the boot area. I just ordered a new MacBook Pro and should have it in March. I am hoping all of my Arturia and Presonus /Addictive Keys/ and EZ Drummer run on it.
  14. I just ordered the Nautilus sound libraries that were just made available- and the update to allow Nautilus to use Kronos sounds. (One of them the 4.7GB SG2-X is not unzipping ). To me this shows that they are transitioning to the Nautilus as an in between.
  15. I"m guessing this. Eveything else on the site worked fine for me; just the keyboard authorization fails. I'm just asking- but my authorization failed as well - I retyped without the dashes that were on the public ID of the board and it worked- so I just wanted to throw that out there. now have the registration and am going to download 318 from a different broswer.
