I don't know whether your mini has an XD card slot, but I've relocated my Apple library to an XD card plugged into the side of my 2015 MBP and it works well.

I also had it done in both eyes. I had reading glasses for a few years before and my vision quickly got worse over the course of about a year due to the cataracts. I had Vivity lenses put in both eyes about two weeks apart and my vision is 20/20 again. I haven't needed the reading glasses since the surgery and should never need them again. Best of luck!

Most innovative recreation of a legendary hardware synth in software - Cherry Audio's Pro Soloist

I'm really hoping for a Pro Soloist too.

Yeah, I've always left mine on too.

Yeah, I was going to say Dave Weiser is the authority on Kurzweil stuff.
Kurzweil doesn't exactly support seamless switching between sounds and I don't think they claim to. It seems to work well enough with individual programs, but not in multis and not at all if you use the KB3 engine. AFAIK, only the Korg Kronos, Korg Nautilus, a couple of the Roland Fantoms, Yamaha Montage, and some Nords support that (and if you use the Fantom's organ engine, all bets are off).

This is sad - he was a monster talent. RIP.

Was Spectrasonics on-hand to sample it?
-
Same thing happened to mine. I found replacements on the Gator website but haven't ordered one yet.

Sowing the seeds of love is a masterpiece...definitely Beatles inspired. There is so much going on in this song. We just did a quarantine cover of it (in shameless plugs) and it took a lot of work...lol.

I've always like this band and the new album is pretty decent.

There's one on the Northern Virginia Craigslist right now for $650.

I like it!

Finally got logged in...looks good!

That was pretty awesome!

I've been working on a successor to the ProSoloist+ rack unit I made years back, I think it was in 2009. However, the current component shortage has made it almost impossible to proceed with the project, and that is annoying the hell out of me right now. Incidentally, I was looking in my archives the other day and found a demo VSTi that I had intended to use to demonstrate the emulation algorithms developed for the rack unit. I can share it if anyone's interested. Executables or zip files cannot be uploaded here, but I can try to make it available some other way. It's Windows only, unfortunately.
Joachim - I didn't know you were on this forum. I've emailed you about one of those rack units, but ended up using samples in a Kronos live for the Genesis stuff. I'd be interested in the that demo VSTi, but I'm strictly a Mac guy now.

I'd love to see an ARP Pro Soloist plugin!
A mediocre one existed briefly before that company went belly-up.
-
Yes, it's an ARP Quadra!
-
That looks fantastic, Bill.

I have both Triton plugins and love them - they sound like the hardware to me. I had a number of Tritons years ago and they are all over some of my recordings from the early 2000s, so it's awesome to have those sounds again in software (and not taking up any space).

Nic is a solid drummer. There are already a ton of YT videos of the tour if you're curious, including a full-length, multi-camera shot of the entire show and a full high-quality audio boot. Phil's singing is noticeably hindered by his condition, but he manages well enough and there are 2 backup singers.

In the latest vids, it looks like Tony is using an old Korg 01/W fd (prob as a controller - doesn't look like there's any audio cables), some type of Roland 88 and his Oasys again. There's a Macbook on the rack, so I'm assuming mainstage or similar.
Yes, I believe the 01/W and Roland keyboards are controllers with sounds coming from Mainstage and the OASYS. I couldn't tell from the pictures whether Tony had that large rack of modules he used on the last couple of tours. A rig rundown/interview would be awesome.

Happy Birthday, Dave!!
What synths do you use in your live rig?

My main gig is a rock band focused in the 80s, but we also cover some 70s and 90s-now. I use a single Kronos 61 with lots of splits and layers.
