    Recommendation for an Enclosure or Cable for 8 tb Qvo SSD

    Hello experts! I have a usb-c thunderbolt 3 port, a usb 3.2 port on my laptop. It's a thinkpad Extreme Gen 1. I want to buy a 8 tb ssd QVO and take advantage of my laptop ports where I'll be putting samples and project files in there. What's the best way to get the fastest speed connecting the...

    I wouldn't recommend. It has Audio Imperia samples in them. There might be some legal issues with that.

    Recommend me a library

    Albion One can't trailer braam. You would need one of their braam synth patch in Albion One and the low brass to do it, but even then, it still sound kind of weak. Try Talos by Audio Imperia, Cinebrass or JXL.

    Herman Samples - Frozen Piano - Available NOW!

    Hi there, is there some way to turn off the intelligent pedal off the main patch? Or is it naturally off? I keep getting random pedal up and down noise when I'm not even playing my track in my DAW. I'm not sure if it has to do with the intelligent feature or not. It would also be nice to have...

    Chris Hein Solo Cello Upgrade

    I went to his website and it seems like there is an upgrade for solo violin and viola to the whole bundle, but no the cello. Violin and Cello seems like the same price so I'm not sure why Cello doesn't not have any upgrade path.

    Audio Interface Recommendations

    I personally think the price is right.

If you need to use it everyday it's a small price to pay. It has...

    Impact Soundworks - Momentum

    I beta tested it so I'm also might be biased, but honestly, it's really good. It saves time definitely. I like how there's a lot of different rhythms.

    OUT NOW: CERBERUS: Epic & Cinematic drums

    If I were to have a quick deadlines or adding quick punch, just load up the processed patch. It sounds so natural yet punchy especially the low end. The low end is deep and not too long of a tail. Saves a Lot of time. My last drum track using Cerberus decreased my producing time significantly.

    Jaeger - a lot of instrument noise..

    I'm currently using Jaeger on my project. No noise that I hear that would hinder any music making. I have Ark 1, Albion One and Cinestrings. Mist noise would be Cinestrings from my list, but even then it's not something that you would hear much.
