[@Dramatello]

Ed sounds like a piano Thorne

[@EdThorne]

Sounds like a good piano right?

[@Dramatello]

@@EdThorne sure is. 😆🔥

[@nicksantangelo7928]

My arpeggiator is a tad off time. Do you know how to adjust the rate in SHAPE? Thanks for the videos, btw.

[@bf2853]

they need to make shape a standalone vsts, smh im not about to buy apollo hardware just get luna and use a vst

[@MarcusFenixGears]

Is there no count-in option?

[@EdThorne]

Black Aquarius Hi. Do you mean a click Count in for recording? There’s a pre-roll option under the recording tab (top left tab)

[@Qdraw]

I can add shape and play... but I can't seem to actually open the plug-in interface... what am I missing?

[@EdThorne]

Tom McGraw Press ‘Presets’ at the top of the Shape window and if you have ‘Tracks’ selected in the top left ‘View’ menu, a drop down menu will appear on the left hand side of your screen (out of the shape window). Hope that helps. See my previous video for more info on the displays/menus etc

[@Qdraw]

@@EdThorne Thanks Ed... I think I had just depleted my vid ram or something... The plugin would not even pop up till I rebooted. After that the shape and SD 3 would pop right up after adding them.... much better. Great videos by the way, Thanks!

[@CristianVelaMusic]

Can you load drums on it?

[@EdThorne]

Cristian Vela It’s got some great sounding drum samples. And the oxide tape inserts really make them come alive.

[@EdThorne]

I haven’t ascertained if you can load in your own samples yet.

[@botedebasura7624]

I didnt like the sound
