MUSIKMESSE 2015

It's that's time of year again. Yes, more music gear. So what was announced? Here are a few:

  • AKAI MIDImix Daw Controller- I'll be honest there are a lot of Daw Controllers on the market. Is this one much different? It's portable (could be good for live use). I think for around £60 yes it could prove popular.
  • BOSS SY-300 Guitar Synth- An analogue synth for your guitar. Plugin & your guitar (or bass) & create synths sounds (synth filters, LFOS, amps, effects etc. Also can download more sounds from the website). I'll be honest I have played a guitar synth before, back in the mid 90's. Yes, I like the idea.
  • ROLAND JD-XA - At winter NAMM 2015 Roland introduced us to the JD-XI. The JD-XA looks like his big brother. Bringing an analogue & digital crossover. Listening to the demo's the synth sounds very powerful. Really get some good sounds. I would like to try this synth.
If you are a guitarist, one of the most expensive guitars (I've ever heard of) is on display. GIBSON 'Eden of Coronet' SG, with 400 diamonds & 18 carat gold. How much? Around $2,000,000. I don't think I'll be trying the guitar anytime soon.lol.

Roll on Summer NAMM 2015

Until next time

CUBASE & LOGIC PRO X- BYPASS ALL PLUGINS!

A few weeks ago someone posted in Facebook group about how to Bypass ALL plugins in Cubase 8.5. (As some of you may know i use Cubase 8.5 in the main studio). It's a lot quicker than turning off each individual plugin. Here's how to do this: CUBASE- Go to File  Key Commands  Mixer (Section) Bypass Inserts Type in box a key (e.g. B etc) Assign OK When you press that key all plugins should be bypassed on the mixer LOGIC PRO X- As far as i know at the moment you cannot just press one button/ key & turn all the plugins off simultaneously. You can row by row.  Here's a quick video tutorial : Hope this helps Until next time Law Official Website LW Music Services Twitter Facebook (Law) Facebook (LW Music Services) Youtube Instagram Soundbetter
