heads up.
i'm also posting in my tips in the tips n triks section.

because of various comments bout plug ins.
today i tested a bunch of plug ins i have here.

each month...and i suggest folks check it out..
computer music mag from computermusic.co.uk
has a load of free plug in software.
my dear wife n friends occasionally get me the mag as a bday or xmas present.
from my tests every single plug in i tried loaded fine for me.
the only thing to be aware of is that SOME midi plug ins
triggered from a midi trak need changeing the midi channel.
eg i had to do that for erratic.
i suggest folks check out computer music mag
cos its very intersting the freebie plug ins they give on their dvd's included with the mag.
loads of freebies each month.
heres my comments bout specific plug ins.

for midi traks...
1.astralis orgone..a very wild synth ...loads of settings.
i'm no synth expert but synth freaks should try this freebie.
2.amb bass rack..bass synth sounds.
3.cm303..bass synth sounds.
4.cm dominator..synth sounds etc .
note ..dominator is kinda amazeing...
actually it freaked me out...loads of stuff once again for synth freaks.
fill a trak with a drum pattern for example n try some of the dominator presets.
for rhythmic synth sounds for example.
this is a serious synth for free imho.
5.cm genesis..another synth.
6.erratic cm from delamancha.co.uk..
a very interesting drum sample player with lots
of off the wall drum sounds included.


audio plug ins.
1. cm vocoder..very very interesting vocoder effects.
2. cm compressive martin eastwood...
an interesting comp with lots of comp settings.
compressor freaks should try it out.
for free it might just float your boat.
3. magnus ambience..lots of reverb settings.
4. tal reverb. another reverb.
5. sanford phaser cm.

in conclusion haveing tried loads of plug ins today..
i would have to say plug ins work fine.
(cept for the host/drum plug timeing interraction aspect).
in various of the above plug ins i was changeing presets on the fly too.
now before someone accuses me of sucking up..lol..
its not the case.
i'm just reporting my experience today testing many different plug ins.

if anyone has a vst plug in they are haveing probs with i'll be
happy to check it out n see if i can get it working provided the download isnt large
cos i have only a certain isp bandwidth each month.
