Official Virtual AMPEG Portaflex Club

[adambomb]

Brian,
Since I know you have at least the b15r if you would like to join the group. And be a contributing member I would like to extend a hand to you and offer a number to the group....

Heck I would like to see some settings posts that you use or even a sound clip of your tone.....
Enter "The Prieto's B15 Hot Sounds Cook-off Challenge". See if you can make JimmyM say, "whoa"

Dude that was great!!!! very funkified!

[Rip Topaz]

I do think Brian could be a valuable member of our group as well.

We've had all the pissing matches that we need to see. Lets see if we can constructively make the iOS music making world a little better.

Thanks. Not sure I'm done with it yet. The amp used was the K-800 in Jamup. Drums are DM1 imported into Loopy, then transferred to MTDAW via Audiobus. The keys are Sunrizer XS.

The whole process took less than an hour thanks to Audiobus. It's amazing how much it speeds things up.

A 6 issue subscription to bass gear would be sweeeeeeet

I immediately hooked my phone to the stereo here at work (a hi fi stereo with speakers that i designed and built myself with two satellites, an internal crossover on a horn tweeter an 8" mid, and 1x12" sub) and just to let you know the drums seemed to be clipping a little

[Rip Topaz]

Thanks. I left all the levels as they entered MT. Everything is at zero. Guess a remix is in order.

I came here to look for a post by Priesto suggesting some contest (as Adam suggested in the iOS thread)....and just wow.

I'm embarrassed.

I love this community and what these threads are doing for iOS users, but you need to give it a break with IK and Brian. They get it. We get it. The horse is dead. Long dead. 1000+ posts dead. D.E.A.D. Dead. (Did I mention deceased?) The constant IK bashing is what prompted me to suggest starting other threads in the first place because the important stuff keeps getting buried under the hating. It's still happening, good stuff is getting buried and it needs to stop.

So, a few good threads later (with hundreds of pages) we have great info, but once again, along with plenty more IK bashing (in every thread!). Look: IK has to protect itself and it has to make decisions based on the majority of users - not a few of us who want to piss in their pool because the water got too cold. It's their fault if they stopped innovating or are making decisions that prompted our search for other products and apps. It's their fault if they alienated us and weren't as forthcoming as they could have been. But step up, raise up, GENTLEMEN. Please.

Seriously. It makes TB look bad and it makes us look like immature, disrespectful, self-entitled adolescents. We're happy with our new options - there's no need to continue this bashing and stupid back and forth crap (and that's exactly what it is).

A notice on the other threads should be thrown out there for a heads up to anyone who wants to enter.

As the "Prieto Virtual Tone Quest" Executive Producer (ejem...) I'm still thinking about some rules/amendments.

I'll post after I get out of this mtg I'm currently in.

Agree we need to move on to this new day and bring Brian into the fold and not condemn him for protecting his career and company that is providing for his family. The co. Has strict guidelines for what he can divulge.
Brian,
Still looking for some screen shots and sound samples.....bring it!

Dead? Who is dead? I've never owned a horse!

Thanks Aaron for spanking us when we need it!

[Rip Topaz]

Yup. Welcome Brian!!
Hope now that you're in "the fold", you can use us as a test group and slip us some screen shots of upcoming stuff!!

Yes Brian (btw are you Italian?) enter the Virtual Ampeg Portaflex club and the Rieto contest. Lets see what you and the B15R can do. Even better, post for us a clip with the B15R and the new iRig HD. And as you know we have a Virtual Portaflex soundcloud group. We never heard your tone or playing, so it's about time!

There's one of the satellites I had mentioned it has a little dust on it here at the shop but it sounds fantastic

I agree with that first part: .

Cool funky stuff there, Rip.
