Hi Phil.

The Ministry of Rock Guitars, including the strat are quite heavy, really not the sound you want. yes, Ministry is 100% bitmapped. What i currently do is ask my partner to load in an instrument and then save the project. when I load up the project again, the instrument loads with it. I then resave the project with a different name once I've started using it to write a track. It's a bit of a clunky way around things, but it's not too inconvenient at the moment. cheers Darren ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Wicketts To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 11:47 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Guitars Thanks Darren, Am I right in thinking that Ministry of Rock Bitmapped? The reason I ask is, I was wondering what the Strat Guitar samples were like when dry? The Sonivoxmi is very 1950's sounding but it does lack body. If I could find a classic 1950's - 1960's Strat Guitar that could be loaded in to Dimension, I'd be over the Moon.

Luckily, I have sighted assistance on tap so to speak so I'm very fortunate.

I love the idea that some of the Softsynths that don't yet have support may still be possible to use. As you advised, I'll take a look in the Track Inspector first. Phil, thanks so much for your help.

You can get at a lot of parameters in the track inspector and may be able to disable the reverb in there. Also, if you have some sighted assistance around then, you may be able to use HotSpotClicker to create keyboard support, tab orders etc in this plug-in. You can read about HotSpotClicker over on: http:///www.hotspotclicker.org/ Regards, Phil Muir P J Muir Productions, Music And Audio Production Telephone: US (615) 713-2021 UK+44-1747-821-794 Mobile: UK +44-7968-136-246 E-mail: info@xxxxxxxxxxxx URL: www.philmuir.com/ ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Wicketts To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 12:27 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Guitars Hi Phil, Thanks for replying, The sonivoxmi is a VST plug in that a sighted friend down loaded for me from the sonivoxmi pick and mix type site. as I guess you are already aware, I'm a new comer to this kind of technology. The strat is in the plug in list with all the other soft synths. I'd like to purch Sonivoxmi Broadway Big Band, just concerned that if I'm not able to turn off the effect on the Strat, I maybe wasting my Money.

Hmm, is that a sound Font? If so then, it should be easy enough to turn affects off. Are you loaning that up in Dimension Pro or, SFZ? If so then, and assuming your using Cake Talking, press function key F4 to choose various options. If your not using Cake Talking then, you can get .HSC sets for alternative scripting packages and change various options with the HotSpotClicker sets.

I have a few on Dimension Pro and a stratt from sonivoxmi, but the sonivoxmi strat unfortunately loads up with effects already added and you have to see to switch them off.
