Sincerely hoping that works out well for you. Their SEM is easily one
of their very best creations.
Thank you,
yes it is, but I have to disagree with
Virtual instruments are so much better than the
originals in so many
ways.
I own an Oberheim Matrix-1000. It was not expensive. Assuming a mixing
console or analog inputs of an audio interface shouldn't cause noise,
it is as free from noise, as a virtual synth. The sound of CEM Curtis
chips is much more impressive than any emulation.
A real advantage of virtual instruments IMO is another domain. Last
Black Friday I purchased Miroslav Philharmonik. The value-for-money
ratio is much better, than recording a real orchestra. It doesn't
replace a real orchestra, but for me a virtual orchestra is the only
orchestra I could get.
