Amazing! Strip out vocals for acapellas!

Nice, will take a look when I get home. Have you tried it? Any tool I have tried previously to split vocals from audio has left the vocals sounding odd.

Only tried it briefly on my phone but sounded OK. I'd normally treat the absolute living shit out of vocals anyway so it's fine for me

I did manage to torrent a load of hip hop acapellas recently that I need to go through.

No.

2 days on here, 2 misogynistic memes. bye bye

Has anyone taken advantage of any of the absurd Black Friday deals on plug-ins this year?

I bought the soundtoys bundle finally (been using a cr*ck on and off since like 2008 which is finally no longer supported)

also bought an Izotope bundle.

Another that caught my eye was the black rooster plug-ins. Anyone with any experience of those, any good? It’s about £1000 off ish if you buy the whole bundle.

I’m also looking for a great sounding granular effects plug-in / sampler instrument / synth etc. let me know if you know of a decent one!

Silo is what you want for granular:

On Plugin Alliance so will undoubtedly be on sale at some point.

Not sure about effects but the deal on Arturia is pretty decent. Their synths are very useful.

Thanks guys will check them both out

Not sure if anyone is interested in this, not an amazing prize but some clean acapellas to play with and a bit of fun.

Hey! We've just posted 5 acapellas from the new album. If you are a producer / DJ we'd like you to send us in your remixes to tom.j.caruana@gmail.com Words and I will choose our favourite and send a free copy of the album on Vinyl & CD! Deadline is by midnight New years eve 2021!

I have 3 Tom Caruana LP's Wu-Tang+Beatles, Wu-Tang+Hendrix and Inner Space. Great albums.

I have the Beatles one, you are right it is great!

I can't decide which one I like best. Inner Space features Can.

I'll have to check them out

Bit late in the day but Silo can currently be had for $36 with the code BFD1-2999.

Cheers did spring for it

Nice, it’s a great plug-in IMO, the stereo spatial/reverb stuff you can do with it is v nice.

Reason have a Black Friday thing on still as well, I have been looking at the ABL3 (TB-303) plug-in for a while now. It was £64 but down to £48 Black Friday and I won £25 on the paypal christmas draw so it ended up costing £23. Looking forward to having a play with it.

I went for it too, cheers bud! Been enjoying messing around with it the last couple of days

Nice one. 👍

I was sworn off the Black Friday sales and then had a last minute splurge… bought a bunch of stuff I had my eye on for ages - Kick 2, Big Kick, FabFilter Pro-L and Saturn, and U-he Repro (U-he don’t do Black Friday but they have a survey at the moment that gives a 25% off code).

I've been toying with this track for a week, never really done anything in this style, never created breakbeats before! If anyone has any comments suggestions, criticism I would genuinely love to hear from you! It's an Ozone master using Tonal Balance Control by Izotope too

I like it. Nice loon sample in the last section, always enjoy that. Hard to give any criticism, even sounded tonally well balanced. What style do you normally work with?

Cheers! Normally Techno really
