The problem with these platform wars talks is that either side only argues from their limited perspectives. The one's that switch, either way, typically have to go through a period of grievance for their old platform, but they get through it, and soon enough the old platform doesn't even matter anymore. Yeah, there are some apps on Windows that I'd love to see on a Mac, but 99.9% of the time it's gear lust, nothing more. The stuff I need, free or commercial, already exists for Mac. What PC users consider to be the best apps on their platform, there tends to be an equivalent on the Mac. Except for games. So laff it up PC boys! You definitely have our Mac butts kicked for games, but hardly for much else. ;) Well, there may be a tons and tons of crap to play with on the PC running Windows, but there are at least tons of free stuff to play with on Mac running OS X.

It makes you feel like the electrical current from the wall is raging through the dials and exploding out the speakers in shards of sound. I'm really looking forward to trying this out tonight. I'm going to load up a few vst synths as I've removed them over the last couple months. I'm DJing with Dechadance right now using some d16 plugins (303 and 909) and bassline (303 emulator. I have this nagging feeling that I may be better off with vinyl and a couple pieces of external hardware. I just played with a mini moog and it really sounds dangerous.

Speaking of amusingly bad.... how about anything Roland has done in the last 10 years? The Juno D was pretty much the nail in the coffin for my faith in the company. I choose to pretend they didnt roll out those SH re-issues. Its just so... sad. Even Alesis managed to knock out an Andromeda whilst slipping so visibly bankrupt. Why cant Roland pool its collective resources and stop making tacky gear with lame stepping digital filters and trading on the quickly expiring credit of the past? This is relevant because as of right now, yet another enthusiast has programmed something more interesting based on Roland's heritage then Roland themselves seem to be willing to.

Adrian, not to burst your bubble, but my sense is that WINE is not headed in that direction for audio. And a lot of the PC-exclusive software is exclusive for a reason; i.e., not possible to port. That may mean fixing Vista becomes the top priority. I thought KVR predated the Muse Research connection, but perhaps that was always the same people and I was mistaken?

It has been my home for many years. The forums were started up by the boys at Muse Research who bought us the very cool 'Linux VST host in a rack' hardware <a href="http://www.museresearch.com/receptor.php" rel="nofollow">Receptor</a>. The folks on KVR tend to be a little more PC biased as it attracts a sizeable community from the UK (of the Cubase ilk) but it is great that it attracts the hobbyist soft-synth devs who like to (as with this juno emu) release freebies and get feedback straight from the users to continue developing their skills. I've discovered so many great virtual instruments from KVR so I'm thankful for such a great resource. Ah good to see KVR get some coverage here on CDM. It has been my home for many years.

That being said, I would much rather deal with a flaky OS (in XP) and have an almost infinite number of great & low-cost programs, synths, sequencers, etc. than have a great OS with almost nothing on it (sorry OSX guys)... I mean sure you guys have Logic, Metasynth, and a couple of other exclusives. Aside from that, everything that you guys have is also on the PC side, and often there is a MUCH cheaper PC-only alternative. I really hope WINE/Linux matures to the point where almost ALL Windows music software and plugs both free and commercial work 95% bug-free on it. At that point I may just ditch Windows for good... Until then WinXP FTW! ATA BTW, I’m so not a “fanboy” of windows anymore, as I have flammed on Vista-related issues for the past x-number of months.
