What are the pro's and con's (samplers)

-I hate to beat and dead horse, but Im about to buy some new software, and I trying to make the best choice--
What are the pro and cons of the major samplers (Im looking for a more radio-ish sound, motif/triton/phantom).
i.e:mach five, sampletank 2l, exs, and kontact
(a poster here said Colossus, ive need heard of it are used it--or HALion(is this only for pc's)--gigastudio(same questions as halion).

Samplers do alot of things, what do you need a sampler for?
Korgs remind me of alot of presets and alot of verb and chorus. I guess if you're posting here you already have EXS and want more sounds or more functionality and if the korg thing is true you lean more to sampling/synthesis than instrument recreation (as in you probably aren't going for VSL if the korg caught your ear). Independence looks really cool, it's quite new. Kontakt is demanding and very flexible, both include huge libraries and I know kontakt has tons of great filters, FX, modulation. It also needs a pretty strong update-which is being dealt with after a year or so.

  • Has anyone developed a site for podcast in Muse?  If so what are the pro's and con's vs. using Wordpress?

    have built a few sites in Muse and hope to host my podcast on a dedicated Muse created site.  I use BC for my sites.  Has anyone designed a podcast site in Muse and if so, what are the por's and con's opposed to just doing this with Wordpress and power press plugins?

    one-armed is the easiest to install - less disruptive as you can keep your current network unchanged.
    However, it requires special configuration to guarantee that the return traffic from the server goes back to the CSM.
    This is done by doing client nat which will prevent the servers to see the client ip address and therefore to create statistic based on client ip.
    There is a way to inser the client ip in the HTTP header, but it only works for HTTP.
    Router-mode is easier to understand and troubleshoot.
    The CSM is just like a router with vlans and routing between each of these.
    It requires a minimum of configuration.
    However, it is important to design correctly.
    For example I would recommend not to have client accessing the CSM directly.
    They should go through the MSFC first.
    Then I would recommend to have only 1 vlan between CSM and MSFC- this is because the CSM only uses 1 default gateway even if you can configure many.
    You never know which is active.
    The CSM also expect the traffic to come back on the vlan it went out. If you have multiple vlan it is difficult to control on which vlan the response will come back.
    Finally 'bridge mode' is good if you want to insert the CSM between the servers and their current default gateway without having to reconfigure the servers.
    This is a good solution.
    Disadvantage is that all traffic from servers will go through the CSM and it is more difficult to avoid in case you really need it.
    A little more complex to troubleshoot as well.
    Conclusion: bridge or routing mode is ok - avoid at all cost one-armed.

  • HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

    All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
    What are the pros and cons of
    1) choosing to use the SAME
                                                  Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
                                                  purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
    2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
    P.S.
    I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
    Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
    Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

    You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

  • What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?

    Hi all,
      1.What are the pros and cons of installing java+abap stack for portal?
      2.what effect it does on the ume options to be choosen??
      3.for the purpose of integration of r3,bw and crm on portal and crm 4.0 60.2.3 business package which option of stack(java or abap or both)will be good option and which ume option while installation should be choosen?
    regards
    Rajendra

    Hi Rajendra,
    The NetWeaver Installation Master Guide offers some good scenarios on the pros and cons:
    https://websmp201.sapag.de/~sapidb/011000358700005412792005E.pdf
    In a nutshell:
    ABAP+JAVA
    Pros
    - Decrease # of servers required to administer the portal
    - Less costly
    Cons
    - Upgrades could be dependent on ABAP and Java release level
    - Additional load on the server due to ABAP stack
    - Limited scalability
    JAVA and ABAP on separate server
    Pros
    - Improved performance
    - Allows each system to be single-use purpose therefore downtime does not affect other components
    - More scalable
    Cons
    - Adds complexity to landscape
    - Additional costs

  • What are the pros and cons re using an intel iMac vs MacPro with LP8?

    I'm considering getting a new intel Mac in the near future (presuming a new MacPro will be released in the near future - maybe at the same time as Leopard). I compose largely for film and television and I am composing largely using a combination of loops, software instruments and some recorded live performance. I usually sync to a low res quicktime movie.
    I do like the idea of a simple and uncluttered work environment with an iMac, added to which there's also a degree of portability with the iMac however the MacPro is obviously more powerful. I'm not sure how much the difference in power between the two computers would affect me.
    Would I be compromising myself much if I went for the iMac over the MacPro? What are the pros and cons of the iMac vs the MacPro in relation to Logic Pro 8?

    In the world large-scale music composition using samples, loops, etc (especially for film) your two biggest needs are RAM and HD speed/access. The imac looses big time in this department (as a single computer at least) as it can only be upgraded to 4gb ram, and only holds one internal HD, and also lacks any PCI expansion for DSP cards, audio interfaces, etc.
    In generalyou want to separate your data vs applications as much as possible, to ensure both can be accessed quickly and easily by the computer. So its best to have your system software / applications on one internal HD, and your logic data (samples, audio recordings, loops) on another drive(s). You can do this with an iMac via USB, FW800, & FW400, but depending on how big your projects get, how many USB and FW drives / interfaces you use, and how much data you need to stream, you could overload the buss on the imac (not sure if it has multiple busses or not). Plus speed wise, internal SATA are much faster than external drives, and the mac pro with its 4 internal slots seems like a great choice for speed and flexibility.
    However, if you dont find yourself doing large scale projects, then you might be better off going with an imac. We just purchased one for my father and it runs great! It blows the socks off of my Dual 2.5 G5 tower in terms of CPU speed! If you run into problems running things from the imac, you could always add a mac-mini down the road to stream sample libs, as a Logic node, etc, which seems to be a much more cost effective solution.
    I hope this was helpful, but I probably just made the decision harder . In fact, if I were to start over today, I dont know if I'd go with a MacPro, or an iMac / mac mini combination. they both seem to have their advantages / disadvantages.
    Best of luck!

  • What are the pros/cons of having 1 large BI system versus 2 medium systems?

    What are the pros/cons of having 1 large BI system versus 2 medium systems?  Are there any known limits as to how large a BI system can be until it experiences performance problems?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I dont think there is any limit as long as your DB and Apps servers support it.
    There are case studies on systems from 20 TB to 60 TB.
    Regarding having two meduim installations it may not be a right choice if you consider facts like routine maintenance, DB upgrades and reorganization, number of resources required, number of DEV and QUAL servers required (this will increase as each PROD requires one DEV and one QUAL atleast).
    If you have a single PROD you can do away with this.
    One DEV , one QUAL and a single team of dedicated resources are required to maintain the system.

  • My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

    My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

    Hello Douglas,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the built-in iSight camera on your MacBook Pro.  I recommend the following steps for this issue:
    Important: Follow these instructions in order. Test the camera between steps to see if the issue is resolved.
    Built-in iSight cameras
    These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
    See if the issue is application-specific.
    Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
    See if the issue is user-specific.
    Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
    Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
    Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
    Reset SMC or PMU
    Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
    If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

  • What are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA

    Hi all
    what are the delta mechanisms and tables used for  Lo Extraction & COPA.
    please explain clealry.
    Thanks & Regards,
    James

    James,
    Please go through Roberto's weblog :
    /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/02/14/logistic-cockpit--when-you-need-more--first-option-enhance-it
    Anyways,
    As you know LO cockpit consists of different modules(MM, PP, SD, etc)
    They are called appl components. Each of them have a number (eg.MM=02) and for each appl comp they might be different Data sources and for each DS they might be different tables. So, unless you be specific we cant tell a specific table for a DS.
    coming to the delta mechanisms, there are " direct delta, queqed delta and serialized delta".
    Copa is based on the oepration concern. it can be created on " accouting based" or "costing based".
    Assign points if helpful
