Thank you very much 4mica O:)

… all the guitar parts were recorded using the same modern Ibanez guitar, fed almost directly into my sound card then I used a VSTi called FreeAmp to make the otherwise clean raw guitar sound more like a 50s guitar with a tube amp.

That answers my question 🙂
Convincing emulation!

p.s. What module did you use to make the ‘Song List’ on your blog

@pbattersby wrote:

Nothing fancy. It’s provided by Blogger and it’s called “Labels”. It just displays a list of all the labels used to tag the blog posts. I simply tag each song’s blog post with it’s own name preceded by a “-” so that all the song titles appear first in the alphabetical list followed by any other labels.

Thanks 😀

Before the song list gets too much longer, I’ll have to write my own module to query blogger for the list of songs/blog posts and replace the song list with a dropdown list.

Would you mind describing this process when you do it too?

My latest productions…

I, like Adimatis, feel at home using Podium. For me its workflow has a directness and intimacy. Qualities which appear in this forum from time to time. Much like a family… dare I say 😳

I believe we are all fans of Frits’ work and sure he accounts for all requests made as Podium matures. While he is agile and responsive it may have raised a dilemma.

… between work for someone for money and work for me for pleasure i prefer the second option :).

Egoadsr has a realistic proposition. Perhaps Frits is like a new mother who receives so much advice he is left without the sense of being a parent?!

After some sweeping innovations to hit Podium recently I believe it’s fair to let it settle and consolidate. At that point there could be a marketing push or mobile app developed to net more customers and fund costly features. (I voted yes to the poll question)

A scenario which scares me is that Frits gets ambitious and repackages Podium, integrates all the bells ‘n’ whistles then sells for $$$ (big bucks). He could call it ‘Rostrum’ 8-[

When saving a project, Podium to save a folder , (not only the .pod file) in which it will copy all the waves included in the project, for an example in a “Samples” sub-folder by default, as well as arrangements, and the project file itself, bounces and so on. So every time a sample is imported to the project, it will be copied there.

I prefer Podium references a sample location to minimise consumption of disk space.
It is also a system which ensures project files aren’t corrupted due to an orphaned sample (the same applies with plugins) 😀

Would be good to have a few choices eh?…

I like what the Shortcircuit sampler did with path variables…

…user configurable path variables. If a part of the path matches one of the path variables, that part is replaced with the matching variable name. When the sample is loaded the next time, the path variable is replaced with the corresponding path again, giving the correct filename to the filesystem.

This adaptive approach would aid in repairing broken references.
That said, I have made the mistake of editing a referenced sample outside of Podium. This left the project playing the processed version.

I understand your frustration CymaticCreation when you wish to archive or transport your project.

an easy way to pull everything into the project folder would make things so much easier, and save time…

I’d like a ‘Copy Arrangement Samples‘ right-click menu entry on an arrangement object in the project start page. Currently you can double-click a sample object, in the project start page, to open the master audio editor then save the sample within the project directory (or anywhere else).
