[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1463576499' post='3052460'] Not if you are using Logic like the OP. Plugins need to be in AU format. [/quote] Ah, I missed the bit about using Logic... as you were

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1463571027' post='3052398'] The Mac works in a completely different way. All audio plug-ins where they are effects or instruments need to be in AU format [/quote] Not so... AU is just one of several plugin formats that your DAW may or may not support. E.g. I use Studio One and Pro Tools: Studio One will work with AU and VST, while Pro Tools works with AAX.

[quote name='2elliot' timestamp='1463504202' post='3051890'] An old drummer friend of mine could get his full kit in a Mini. Not the fat blob new one but an old Cooper. It's as if the car was designed around a bass drum, amazing thing. [/quote] Yep, my old drummer too. Bass drum on the passenger seat. Somehow we got a bass in a hard case, a medium-sized bass combo and me in there too!

Well obviously the best music was made in the 70s. I was also a teenager in the 70s, but I'm sure those two facts are purely coincidental.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1463503065' post='3051879'] Ah, reminiscing was so much better back when... Who's going to be first to post the Monty Python sketch?? (cos comedy was so much better then...) [/quote] Funnily (!) enough I think Not The Nine O'Clock News has aged much better than Monty Python...

What's good for your mattress isn't necessarily good for your PC!

This thread has reminded me, it's been a while since we heard anything from Lord Gaga...

[quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1458927329' post='3012216'] Neither are Jagger and Bowie strangers to the hit parade, but by the criteria of this thread as it was the only hit from 'Bowie & Jagger' this qualifies: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G4jnaznUoQ[/media] [/quote] [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1459016198' post='3012924'] Ruined a perfectly good song IMO... [/quote] I expect you'll prefer this version, then: [media]http://youtu.be/_li_d_YviZ4[/media]

[quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1463167509' post='3049288'] Seen one doing the rounds lately that I wanna see... "The worlds finest Elvis fronted Nirvana tribute act" [url="https://www.facebook.com/elvanatribute/"]https://www.facebook.../elvanatribute/[/url] [/quote] And how about Tragedy, an all-metal tribute to the Bee Gees? https://www.facebook.com/letsmaketragedyhappen/

So who's playing Charybdis?

Cornish punk: The Sex Pasties Jazz-punk: The Sax Pistols Softly-coloured punk: The Sex Pastels Early 20th-century French composers punk: Les Six Pistols

The calendar-makers' hard rock band: AD/BC.

[/i]clever stuff!

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1462879215' post='3046490'] Personally speaking, I was expecting the results of each process to be more noticeable. I really struggled to tell the difference myself, and because I knew which track was which I needed some ‘impartial ears’ to make a more objective judgement. So a big thanks to you all for doing just that!

T2 for me too - it feels a little more "glued". I thought the brass and the voice seemed to be competing for the same space in both.

[quote name='lojo' timestamp='1462640470' post='3044622'] I really liked them till I heard him moaning about having to play creep all the time , and I thought my plumber mate doesn't moan about boilers [/quote] Good for your plumber mate. Not every housewife can be a stunna.

A friend of mine struck up a conversation in the ladies' loos of a restaurant, mentioning how the place seemed to be besieged by paparazzi. One of the ladies say yes, it was because of "her", indicating her companion. Only afterwards did she learn that the lady was part of "her" entourage, and "she" was none other than acclaimed singing sensation Kerry Katona. My friend was none the wiser!

Rather unusual choice of price, too!

[quote name='toneknob' timestamp='1462520790' post='3043667'] Well I enjoyed Tony Levin as The Chauffeur [/quote] Well spotted!

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1462470465' post='3043348'] So you can whip it out, manipulate it and have it ready for action in a few seconds. And when you're done you can quickly fold it up and hide it away before anyone sees what's happening. [/quote] Sounds great, apart from the folding-up bit
