I agree. I hate their new pricing as well. Looks like I won't be upgrading for a while. Unfortunate, really, so I'll just have to settle for cruddy sounding hosts in the meantime.

Its such a shame Brent mate as I skipped v9 so am stuck on M-Powered 7.4.2 and 8.0.5 LE. Might go for v9 if i can find it when my new audio machine is built but until then I shall suffer just the same as you mate. Hope things are going well with the youngster by the way and best to you and your's

Dennis, Its the only true thing in this whole thread IMveryhumblehO

Cheers

I do think you are overthinking it. I answered his question to help because I'm familiar with the MIDI editing of the programs mentioned. I said that despite some differences between X1 and Samplitude MIDI, that Samplitude would still be fine. It would do the job. It would work. He shouldn't have issues. It would be fine. Not an understatement, just a general term without any hype or slacking of the product intended or implied.

(Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of the MIDI workflow in either of them(X1 and Samplitude), and they are both in the "second tier" of MIDI editing behind hosts like Cubase and Logic(and even FL Studio, though quite different programs), IMO.)

my god now he's on those idiot fiat commercials. I hate that car

Eek, and 9 is where they really made some big improvements too! If I happen to come across a spare license, I'll be sure to let you know, haha! There is a very small possibility that I may be able to find one.

Thanks! He is doing great! Just turned one year old this last Thursday, and is able to take a step or two but not fully walk yet. Love the little man though and he already sways to music, so I have him training well!

If this were Dan he just would have said (as relates to how the kid is doing, given the previous discussion) ... "fine".

Well, suffice it to say, my son's MIDI is better than that of Samplitude.

Brent

But Is he bloated? And is the latency of his pee-pee increasing?

We won't talk about his download time.

He must have good copy protection since you didn't have twins... a dongle I presume?

Challenge & Response comes later, in the pre-teen years.

Well, I will say that he has the smallest footprint in the entire family, and takes up the least memory since he only has a year of them to draw from.

And there isn't a sign of "old code" to be seen in him.

Unfortunately, his sound engine still doesn't have a clue how to add 1+1 together, so he is likely to sound 20-40% better due to a lower noise floor than the rest of us.

Brent

funny you should say that, my grandson was here a few months ago (and since, he was one oct 29th) and he loves my stereo and my music stuffs. I keep my pedals in one place and some are with the standard foot switch while others are like the boss type foot switch and one amp has a standard foot switch.

He took them all down and was investigating them and I slipped one away from him, there were 6 I think all together. When he put them back he knew one was missing, he knew it was one with a standard foot switch because he picked up the foot switch for my amp and decided that wasn't it and began looking for the missing one. I found that very interesting and something I didn't notice in my own kids growing up. So I suggest your son does know to add 1+1 together...he just doesn't know how to tell you

sorry for going OT but there is no REAL topic here

BTW while we're on the topic, last week I was downtown, the sign said fine for parking so I did and they gave me a ticket

actually the truth is I put 4 quarters in a parking meter so I could sit in front of my wife's doctor's, I never even got out of the car but hey a parking ticket is at least 3 gallons of gas

Ah... but there is. The oldest. DNA.

sshhhhhh...they might make copy protection DNA based

You guys are incredible.

Brent, as long as he doesn't relate "winning" to fiat/charlie sheen or like solja boi, it's fine with me
