Ok, I tried with Tonelib Jam and Presonus Studio.
Tonelib Jam has less latency but sounds very (= too) “thumpy”.
Studio sounds much better but has lots of latency. Still it’s a litle thumpy, but for practicing that would be acceptable.
Same ASIO setting.
Strange!
Do you have an alternative plugin, so I can test this? This way I can verify if it’s Kiloheartz or something else…
Presonus probably has a builtin pitch shift. There’s also always Melodyne 
Bitwig Studio has one, but I couldn’t find a stock one in Studio One Pro.
Beato warning, but some interesting bits:
spoiler: it’s u-he ZebraHZ
All Dear Reality (Sennheiser) Plugins are now free:
Some might be interesting for the freaks here!?
Maybe good news for all tired of iLok and other silly business (@Whying_Dutchman ?):
Good news, Jörg. Now you can activate all of your native UAD plug‑ins and apps on up to three devices and use them anywhere — without internet or connecting an iLok.
This free update is waiting for you. Open the UA Connect app today to get started.
Oh man - there is a God! very cool, thanks!
I’ve been doing some reading on pedals that support neural models, and in so doing I got really interested in what it would take to create one. Turns out there’s not much to it - play a “before” file through your rig, record the output, and run them both through some training epochs to get a resulting .nam file.
The real cool part, though, is when I realized that there was a free VST to “play” the resulting files…
Neural Amp Modeler
…and also an exchange where you can download a lot of them for free. For example:
GForce has come out with a plug-in emulating the Oberheim TVS… on sale right now for about 45 USD
Do I need another analog synth plugin? Do I, @howard ?? 
I have their OB-1 and DMX and both are stellar.
Im in love with the Kuuassa Efektor Bass Cruncher its powerful dynamic and has that great tube personality. Also nerual dsp series are pretty good a bit expensice tough but Parallal X is pretty worth it.
I love Kuassa’s amp sims.
Hey there,
I just want to share my current experience with a new brass library I’ve bought currently. As I use French horns, trumpets etc. in pretty much every piece I “compose” I decided to invest into a good brass library and bought:
FORZO Modern Brass
It’s really costly, but man … it’s so good. I am finally able to get together that brass wall of sound for which I always aimed for, but with low-end plugins it’s just real headache to get anywhere near. So if any of you gonna be looking for a all-in-one Brass section plugin, I can highly recommend this piece.
Ugh… pricey! But, yes, sounds… very cinematic!
How is the interface? You don’t control individual instruments here, but more entire sections/ensembles??
I bet this is way better than what I have (UVI Orchestral Suite, etc).
You can set it up absolutely to your liking. Full ensemble or particular instrument. Whole keyboard or zones. You can assign articulations per velocity, morph between them, articulations and instruments, or full ensemble, with the mod wheel. create tempo sync loops, etc., etc.
Frankly, I have no clue what it can all do. 
It just blew me away that I was able to, as a complete novice with the library and as a bad keyboard player, create a brass part that is still kinda basic, but it would take me hours with Spitfire, Nucleus, or NI libraries to sound kinda “alive”. In the last couple of months, I’ve kind of found out that if I want to have fun making music, it has to be one part, one take … I hate clicking midi or repeating takes, and when it comes to the brass section, this is godly that you can setup what you need in advance absolutely to your liking with stabs, dynamics, articulations that you will need for the part you gonna record.
Here is the first track I made with it (full brass is at the end):
Is the price reasonable for a hobby musician of my grade, no … but it’s a really impressive piece of sound engineering, and I just love to explore these pieces of software.
Ah, nice!!
Most of the examples on their webpage sounded very cinematic, like movie scores. I can hear now that you used the plugin to get something more akin to a horn section in a soul/blues/rock band, and that would also be more my interest (stabs or counter melodies, etc.).
I guess if you have something brass in your head, with some learning, you can get whatever it is on your mind.
PolyMAX synth free to download (not sure whether there is a deadline…):
Update: deadline is June 30
I think I might be buying melodyne essential or assistant. Somebody talk me on/off the ledge.
