DISCUSSION >> IS COYOTE PLUGIN THAT BAD ?
(or does it have its uses ?)

some people have said its junk.
i'm not sure i can completely agree with this.

heres a little song sample with scratch one shot vocals that showcases a retro (60's ?) hammond organ patch from coyo playing the melody.
dont seem bad to me...but maybe i'm stoopid.
what do you think ?...link...
(i'll leave it up for a few days....you can tell me my vocs suck too...lol.)

heres my take on coyote.

PROS. (why i like some aspects.)

..its lightweight on pc resources
..its unobtrusive and loads fast automatically if you wish.
..it lets me get a rough song idea/chords/arrange down fast without futzing around. eg 3am this week.
..i'm not spending loads of time going thru plugin sound selections. and of course cos i find so many good sounds in fancy shmancy plugins one can get 'paralysis by analysys.'
(maybe kiss is good/limited options when scratching out a song idea fast ?)

NEGATIVES.

..yes it does have various sounds i wouldnt use in a final serious song.
BUT whats your take on that hammond sound patch ?
i think its even nice to use in a final release ?
(i tested on my wife who went 'ooh thats nice'...and believe me she is a tough critic....lol.)

in conclusion all i'm saying is maybe dont dismiss coyote out of hand ? cos what ive found is sometimes ive tried a fancy plugin and on occasion ive preferred a patch in coyote.
yeah i know weird huh ? but it just seemed to 'fit' better.
worst case lets take a case where coyo has a filler support rhythm role down lower in a mix.
would it be usefull in that context ?

ok have at me...tell me i'm a dunce...lol

happiness.
