I recently purchased Samp 7 pro . I am interested to get other folks thoughts . Also I will be purchasing a new audio card and I am thinking about either the RME or the Lynx II and advice would be great !

Samplitude 6.0 here and I love it.

Hey Jason,

Which audio card are you using and are you happy with the results ?

bblackwood · « **Reply #3 on:** April 30, 2004, 08:07:51 PM »

Samp7 user here (RME cards) and have nothing but positives to say about it...

Brad,

Do you track or just master with Samp ? Also do you like the CD burning or do you use another app ?

bblackwood · « **Reply #5 on:** May 01, 2004, 07:22:38 AM »

Mastering only, burn CD and DDP from within Samp...

oudplayer · « **Reply #6 on:** May 01, 2004, 11:51:02 PM »

sammz - working with Samp 7.2 here. We're just getting it running for tracking and huge-mix purposes (have used it for "mastering"-type 2-track work and CD burning for a few months with total unqualified success), on a system with a Lynx 2 and a Lynx AES 16 card. So far, so good...

PM me if you want to keep in touch about our progress working with the software and hardware.

An absolute piece of shit that I'm not happy with (thoroughly happy with Samplitude though). Am looking to upgrade the soundcard over the summer.

Hi Phair,

Are you having problems with your Lynx card ?

I was recording this weekend and having some problems . I have the M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 card . When using the Asio drivers I was getting some crackling/popping noise . I tried to play with the buffers but could not get it to go away . When I tried the WDM and the MME drivers no signal was present in Samp . I am sure it is something simple I am overlooking .

Samp7 Classic for me. Best app I have ever used. Incredible sound. Deep pgm yet simple to get the hang of.

Thumbs Up

I have used Samplitude since 1998. It rocked already then and it has only gotten better, and massive leaps.

I like the summing aswell, though, for rock stuff I started using big analog console and stems again. Best of both worlds though ITB mixes are completely usable.

Using both here. Working great. I use Samp for audio, no midi, both tracking and mastering. I have a Lynx II A, 4 in and 4 out. It's become invisible, I don't even think about it anymore, it just is. Certainly not a pice of shit.

I'm thinking of getting samp too here for a while. I would like to know your opinion on the room simulating it has. it is useful or crap?

Scotts · « **Reply #13 on:** May 05, 2004, 03:23:34 PM »

Samp's Room Simulator is one of the best native verb/room tools available (it used to be the best but I also now use Voxengo's Pristine Space and they are very similar in quality).

Just feed the Room Sim some qulaity impulses at 96k, if your system can afford it or just use the freeze function, and you'll hear some great rooms and verbs. Worth the price of admission as they say.

Has anybody checked out the midi available now?

sammz · « **Reply #15 on:** May 12, 2004, 08:20:52 PM »

The word is that Sequoia version 8 is supposed to have much better midi implementation . I read at the Magix web forum http://www.samplitude.com/ that they are looking at a Fall release .

I just copied this quote out of the Samp forum and according to one of the Magix guys this will apply to Samp Pro V8

"V8 will bring a broad range of new features. Each part of them: Elastic audio, midi & drum editor, robota pro, analog modelling effects, video and post pro improvements, the outstanding surround features (object surround!)"

I too am using a Lynx Two card (4 in 4 out) with Samplitude 7.2. I get very low latency with the ASIO drivers and I think Samplitude is pretty awesome in my limited use thus far. I previously used Cakewalk and then Vegas, Vegas being my favorite of those two apps by a long shot. I'm only using the midi functions for tempo mapping click tracks, which is a cool new function. Other than that I do mostly audio, but am going to experiemnt with vst instruments. I really dig the room sim and advanced dynamics plugs too. Now if I could only get more time to actually record something....

GroundZero · « **Reply #18 on:** August 07, 2004, 04:07:51 PM »

Since we're talking about Samplitude, does anybody know how to get Reason working with it? You use Rewire in Cubase, but how does it work in Samp?

sammz · « **Reply #19 on:** August 09, 2004, 01:32:16 AM »

Samp Version 8 ( september release date ) will offer full Reason support along with a host of other goodies .

GroundZero · « **Reply #20 on:** August 11, 2004, 05:52:37 PM »

On another note, I just found out today that Samp. 7 isn't supported by Waves Version 5 plugs, so... so much for upgrading to v5.

First post on this forum... Very Happy

I look forward to further participation.

Waves 5 works fine in Samplitude and Sequoia... I've got them here and I haven't had any issues with them (beyond their crappy install method- I couldn't get them to see my Ilok). The issues that Waves mentioned to me when I was on the phone with their tech support are as follows:

First and foremost, they were not tested, so therefore no support. (I guess they wanted a free copy to test with and Magix wasn't willing to part with it)

Second, their VST Waveshell is is buggy in Samplitude and Sequoia. That means that you may have issues automating their plugins. I get around it by using the DX versions and I use the object editor. It is fine for me.

BTW, version 8 is quite cool. There are some great new features in it.

I dont mean to Hijack this thread but alas:

Is anyone using Samplitude 7.22 out there, successfully recording midi tracks that dont drift (timing wise) after a couple of seconds of playback?

I know that 7.23 is available but other than this issue, which is very annoying, I am pretty happy w/ 7.22. I am hesitant to upgrade, because i haven gotten much feedback on 7.23

any info is greatly appreciated.

Ian

Get 7.23a. It fixed a bunch of stuff related to routing.
