NAMM 2018!

Yes, its that time of year again: NAMM 2018

So what did NAMM have in store for us then? Here's a few highlights:


  • KORG PROLOGUE- Good ole Korg are back with a new polyphonic analogue synth, 49 keys,  8-voice
  • ARTURIA MINIBRUTE 2- Monosynth with Modular patchbay 
  • WALDORF STVC STRING SYNTHESIZER AND VOCODER
  • STUDIOLOGIC SL73 (midi controller) & NUMA (Compact piano/organ/synth)
  • IK MULTIMEDIA iRIG STOMP-USB Pedalboard with audio interface
  • UNIVERSAL AUDIO ARROW-  2 x 4 Desktop Audio interface, Thunderbolt, Comes with around 14 UAD plugins 
  • ADAM AUDIO T-SERIES MONITORS- I have to admit I am a fan of ADAM monitors & have used them for years in the studio, its good to see some new monitors brought out for studios on a budget
  • LOGIC 10.4- Free update for existing users, new plugin effects & a new tempo detection
  • ROLAND (Cloud)- TR 808 & 909 available in software format
  • KURZWEIL SP1 (Stage piano)
I think I will have to try out the KORG Prologue sometime 😀 😀, I've looked at Roland cloud (inn not a huge fan of subscription services, £185/ $215.40 a year, (however the more synths etc they add in the cloud them maybe it is reasonably priced)

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
