    _It's impossible to watch Guy's reviews and not admit your day hasn't just went from a 2 to a 10._
    *I love this video. :)*

      Seriously. This is so good and he's sooooo humourous! BTW, J, How did you make the "I love this video. :)" part of your comment bolded? I've never been able to alter my text in a youtube video. Thanks.

    Wow a guest appearance by Hans Zimmer himself!! Although he seems a bit stiff today 😂 anyway, very helpful and entertaining, thanks for this! Considering Storm drums vs. Damage.

  • @creatingbeauty5522
    @creatingbeauty5522 5 років тому +4

    I hardly ever sub anyone from watching just one video of theirs. I usually watch a bunch of a content creators videos (if the vids are good enough to keep me moving on with them) to prove to me that channel is worth my sub, as there is just sooooo much info out there and it can get overwhelming if I've subbed too many people. This is so great in both content and humor, though, that I had to sub this man just from seeing this video alone.

    UA-cam algorithm brought me here from "Saga - Acoustic trailer Percussion", from Red Room, now on sale, for half the price ....It doesnt sound that "EPIC", but i guess we can make it Epic by processing some Eppyness in it 😁😁

    I'm listening to this as a 17 year old living with my mom who doesnt support me and *hearing the prices for literally every good VST ;-;*
    Edit: my mom who doesn't support me in music production*

    • @MFJMD564
      @MFJMD564 Рік тому

      If you have a tight budget, the VST SoundIron Apocalyse has a "Elements" version for $99 which will be way enough if you are not a pro (yet). Wait a few days, they might start their Black Friday deals, and you can expect 40% on that price. So you'll have a great product for $60.

    • @marcusdekker
      @marcusdekker Рік тому

      There is lots of free stuff out there. Spitfire Labs comes to mind. Almost every VST producer gives away free stuff; just set up acounts at all the majer players and see what they give away. Only buy during black friday. You will need a midi instrument, i presume a keyboard. Some hardware, when you buy it , give away a free daw...(i've got Bitwig sitting here on the shelve, that i dont use, becouse i got it with some hardware i bought). So there are plenty of posebilities; there are no excusses. Go out there and create. Put it on youtube, Show people that you care, can are able and willing and the univers will listnen.

  • @ReubenCornell
    @ReubenCornell 5 років тому +1

    You could easily do a second installment of this video featuring Drum Fury by Sample Logic, SAGA Acoustic Trailer Percussion from Red Room Audio, Cerberus from Audio Imperia and several different options from Strezov Sampling.

    Master how are you! Loving your videos always.
    Question for you or any friend in the community.
    Does DAMAGE vst works in M1 Macs? I am using Cubase Pro on Mac (new to this). and love DAMAGE. but i cant find any info about this. The technical page of Heviocity just mentioned the MAC versions can run, and no M1. Is that it?
    And any other EPIC PERCS recommendation as a STAND ALONE VST for M1 chips?
    Thank you! in advance for your time!!!

    What keyboard are you using? And are the faders pre-mapped by you and saved in snapshots? Interesting how quickly and easily you mixed the mic positions with the faders, for example.

    I like dry samples, not all the time, but for the sake of making something fit into a mix, I need to have the dry samples or at least, close mics. Damage seems to be dry-ish. Does anyone have any advice on other libraries that are the best bang for the buck?

    @transcendmeta 2 роки тому

    Dude!!! I just found Guy at random. So epic!!!
    Any of these libraries free on the constraints of having to use. Kontakt player so samples can be loaded into a loaded into a piece hardware (drum module, etc etc) for live playing vs composing in a daw? Thanks for any insights. This is noob territory for me but it’s damn exciting!
