Drum vs ConcertLove

Please note: 1) This App comes with an AUv3 plugin extension. 2) To play the cymbal samples, a separate download (free, in-app) of ~180 MB is required. The App also works without the cymbal samples. INSTRUMENT BACKGROUND We all know and use electronic drums today, but at the beginning of the 80's the first electronic drums were a real novelty that revolutionized not only the sound of music of those years, but also the workflow in the recording studio. Many producers preferred to record the sound of electronic drums rather than acoustic drums because it saved time and money, avoiding having to mount microphones, find the right positions, spend hours equalizing and correcting the recorded material. With an electronic drum set it was quicker: it was enough to connect the cables and maybe find the right sound for the song, which was a perfect scenario especially for many low-cost productions, for example those of pop music. The first electronic drums were completely analog, they generated the sounds of the drums using only a few elements such as an oscillator and a white noise generator, plus a couple of envelopes and a filter. The sound wasn't exactly realistic but it was peculiar, and perfect for creating certain sounds never heard before. The downside was that electronic drums could only generate the sound of drums but not cymbals. For this reason, the sound of real cymbals was recorded alongside the sound of electronic drums. This kind of setup was also used live quite often. It was common to see a drummer on stage playing the typical hexagonal pads but combined with a set of real cymbals. GSi Drum-80 reproduces that exact scenario. It contains two separate sound engines that can play at the same time. One engine recreates the sounds of the famous electronic drum module known as the Simmons SDS-V (very similar to the later SDS-8 model); at the same time, the exclusive GSi WLF Engine plays a multi-sample of real cymbals recorded exclusively for Drum-80. Main features - Virtual Analog Engine based on the famous SDS-V drum module - Optional VCO phase reset - Supports multiple outputs (one stereo mix, six individual drum synth channels, one stereo channel for Cymbals) - Sampled Cymbal sounds (Hi-Hat, Ride, 4 Crashes, 3 Splashes) provided by the exclusive GSi WLF Engine - Full Polyphony - Separate section with adjustments for Cymbal sounds (tuning, leveling and EQ) - Stereo 1176-Style Limiter - Stereo Delay effect - Stereo Reverb effect - Built-in programmer with unlimited Programs - Embedded user's manual - Available as Stand-alone application and audio plugin (AUv3 for iPad) - Very low CPU and RAM usage Visit home page for audio and video demos.

ConcertLove — the archive of your nights You have seen them all. The room that was too full, the encore nobody saw coming, that one night in July you still bring up. ConcertLove keeps them, with the setlist attached and the people who stood beside you. WHAT IT DOES Mark a show and it is in your archive, with the official setlist from setlist.fm beside it — fetched live, so never out of date. If a concert isn't there yet, add it by hand or paste the link. Your own songs, your own note and the rating you give that night belong to it. YOUR ARCHIVE IS YOURS, ON EVERY DEVICE One ConcertLove account. Mark a show on your phone and it is on your iPad. No signal in the venue? Everything you write waits patiently and goes out the moment you are back online. WHO WAS THERE Add the people you went with. If they are on ConcertLove too, they get asked and can confirm it themselves — then the night sits in two archives. Went on your own? Say so, and the app stops asking. THE CONVERSATION AFTERWARDS Every concert carries a thread for the people who were there. For the photo of the setlist, the "what was that song called again", the message the morning after. You get a notification when someone says something, and it stays with the night it was about. WHAT IS STILL TO COME The shows you are going to sit apart, with the start time from your own ticket and the people you are going with. Concerts already in your calendar come in with one tap. WHAT IT ADDS UP TO Statistics that tell your own history back to you: how many nights, which artists you keep going back to and when you saw them, the rooms you stood in most, the festivals and the years you went. Behind every number is the list that counted it. And a poster of your concert year for the wall. BRING WHAT YOU ALREADY HAD Your favourite artists from Spotify, your concerts from your calendar, a song you recognise with Shazam when you want to know whether they are playing nearby, or your own history from setlist.fm. EXPORT Your whole archive as a beautifully design list in a PDF: by year, with the people who were there. Yours, to keep or to pass on. And a Concert Poster option to print a beautifully designed poster to be printed for your family to know when the next concert will be. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics. Your archive lives on your own account; you decide who you share a night with. Blocking someone or reporting a message works everywhere that person appears, and you can delete your account from inside the app — which takes everything with it. Setlists come from setlist.fm and stay there: ConcertLove fetches them live and never stores them. Every feature is available to everyone. No subscription, no tiers.
