You're right. That would be a great update for the future - right now the firmware has a fixed set of 3 pages (red, green and blue), but a future firmware update might allow for variable number of pages.

Oh, I wish 19" rack gear would make a comeback!! :) By the way - we do actually use soft-touch momentary footswitches with relays on all our pedals - no stiff, clicky switches for us!

It does. Although it was 169, and now price is reduced to 149. However, the Monogram is more tailored towards video editing, and several features set these two units apart. But the features I wanted our design to have, that the Monogram does not: * Single unit, no "master module" required. * Plug and play, no proprietary software required. * Long-throw, 100mm faders (Monogram is 60mm). * Class compliant Midi-over-USB, making it work with non PC/Mac host devices (like hardware sequencers). * Grippy and doesn't slide around on your desk. Will stay put if you place it on your master keyboard. If any of these features appeal to you, then consider our product. If the modularity of the Monogram is a desireable feature, and you want to combine more modules to make your own custom interface, go with the Monogram. Their design is very sleek! A lot of people are liking the 100mm faders, that's probably the main selling point of the unit, but I've also had people complain that it's too long to be comfortable for them. If you have small hands, shorter faders might be more suitable. We're just here to offer options, but people seem to like what we offer 😀

You sure you watched the whole video, mate? :) Sure, I wanted to make the point that this is not a one-trick pony and played some mid-gain riffs. It's actually a very versatile preamp. 6:01 - 6:55 is what you're looking for. Also, further demos: ruclips.net/user/shortshv5QDSIB29E ruclips.net/video/PipKkw_MRfw/видео.html

Good question. I've unfortunately never tried the Martyr myself, but am aware of it. I don't know what solution they used to replace the triode clipping stage, but I suspect it's something similar to what I did, although maybe with JFETs instead of diodes? Only way to be sure would be to crack one open a take a look :)

The early reflections section was split up and better labeled, it consisted of the tapped delay and the diffusion section. So no change there, really, just a re-labeling of things in the UI.

Nice :) - If the old version works well for you, that's great. But I also want to make it clear; you *can* install and use the new version without a license. There is a dialog that shows up for 5 seconds when you first open the UI (similar to what Reaper does), but you can dismiss it and use the plugin without limitation. It's just there to remind you that, if you have a chance to buy a license and support us, that would be awesome. ☺ - but the old version is still totally free and continues to be so, of course!

Might've been a temporary glitch - back up now :)

yes, absolutely! 😵 It's an old bug that somehow managed to sneak back into my codebase just before the latest release! It was reported to me yesterday by a helpful customer, I've already made the fix, just wrapping up a new release right now, you should find version 2.2.1 with correct labels on our download pager tomorrow :)

@@GhostNoteAudio Great, thank you. Looking forward to demoing!

It's in the works :) I've got a couple other projects to wrap up but I've been working on a new plugin which takes the majority of what IR Workshop does, and adds a bunch of the methods that I developed for this project. I'm hoping to get it released before the end of the year.

@@GhostNoteAudio Good to hear. I'll probably exclusively use that for cabinet simulation when it comes out 😆. What's weird to me is that IRWorkshop is a pretty powerful and creative tool. And you/you guys released it 7 years ago apparently, and the first time I hear about it is in this video. That too as an offhand mention.

The personal license is 39 pounds. I don't know what the minimum wage is in the Netherlands but your argument doesn't quite seem right :) - but indeed, you can use the plugin without limitations until you're ready and able to buy a license. I'd much rather offer a good free option than for people to resort to piracy.

Thank you! :) - The core algorithm hasn't changed very much, we improved the tapped delay and the allpass filters, fixed problems with big buffer sizes and made the whole thing quite a lot more performant. But mostly this new version is about fixing all the glitches and compatibility problems that plagued the old one. It should give a much nicer user experience.

I would love it if Linux was a market worth chasing, but sadly, I have to take economics into account :( Linux is the smallest market by far, and the hardest to support due to all the different distros and different libraries and window managers, etc. Unfortunately the math just doesn't work out and as a mostly one-man shop I have to keep my attention laser-focused on areas where I can make the biggest impact. - I really do hope someone builds a Linux version using the open source core, though :)

​@@GhostNoteAudiounfortunately Windows will be also obsolete, as it is slowly degrading as a platform.

@@thisathema that may be but at the moment almost half my customers are on windows, so I will continue to support windows while that is the case.

Still not been released! thanks for reminding me, I have to get on that ASAP :)

Hi - I can definitely say that both ValhallaRoom and VintageVerb have lots of similarities to Cloud Seed. However, the main points of difference would probably be the way you control and interact with the reverb algorithm. The Valhalla plugins have different fixed "Modes", such as Room, Chamber, Plate... while you can control literally every element in Cloud Seed. This can certainly make it a bit overwhelming, due to the sheer number of controls, though. It's definitely a reverb for those who like to tweak and experiment. Another thing that sets them apart is the ability to do strange things, that sound unnatural. ValhallaRoom has some weird modes, like the Sulaco and the LV-426, which are comparable to what you can do with Cloud Seed, but they offer you a handful of fixed modes. Cloud Seed was purpose built with features that make it go a bit.. loopy :)

@@GhostNoteAudio This explanation right here is what caught the most of my attention and got me to go give CloudSeed a shot! I will definitely be telling my friends about this plugin. <3

haha nice one 😄 - it was a great video btw!

@@GhostNoteAudio Thanks. That was made relatively shortly after I decided to really get into production, so looking at it now I feel it's kinda low quality. Looks like I'm gonna have to take a crack at doing a better demo now >.>

Awesome, glad you like the plugin! Also, I have no idea what youtube is doing, but it's definitely sending my videos to the right people today 😁

yes, exactly the same. Just put the reamp box between the line out of your audio interface and the amp. However, check what the output gain of your reamp box is, a lot of passive boxes are -10dB, so your signal strength will be significantly reduced, and you may need to compensate for that by increasing the gain of the channel in your DAW (and hopefully you won't clip). It's actually a drawback of most passive reamp boxes that's yet another reason why I don't like using them.

@@GhostNoteAudio thanks for reply

This is very cool! Thanks for tip man. Cheers!

Awesome, good to hear! - We try to dispatch all orders within 2 working days, and Royal Mail have been doing an excellent job on the next day deliveries :) - Shipping to the US has also been incredibly fast, usually being delivered to customers in under a week. Not a single order held up in customs, etc. Sadly, EU countries get the short end of the stick as the customs agencies are extremely aggressive and often take several days to evaluate shipments, but most deliveries are still showing up to customers within about 10 days.

Indeed, it is on the expensive end. But for the professional who spends 8 hours a day in a studio with one hand constantly on the controller, they are willing to pay a little bit extra for something that feels just right for them. This is not a product that anyone "needs" by a long shot, but the demand has certainly shown me that it's a product that a lot of people appreciate and want, and I'm very happy that I've managed to hit that gap in the market.

It's sooo much fun - and so brutal :)

You know, you're absolutely right. Trying to market the unit based on price was never going to be a good strategy, because I'm simply not trying to compete on price. Instead, I'm trying to hit a certain level of quality and to back it up with good customer support. It's also a very niche product, and not a good fit for everyone, but for the people it's designed for, it seems to be really hitting the mark :)
