hmmmm. it ain't wot you got it's wot you do with it - indeed a cold clinical weedy sound could be perfect in the right context. anyway that is more hopeful sounding. i will try this pro one. one of the reasons i was asking this in the first place is because i have a broken pro one gathering dust and...

why is this?

the native instruments pro52 seems pretty faithful to the original. according to jim bowen he a/b' d them blind and couldn't tell the difference, so it must be a pretty good simulation.

is it just down to how much work is put into creating an accurate mathematical model?

i'm a relative newbie to pulsar, but what are opinions about pulsar synths vs real analog? i for example recently compared the uknow with a juno... the juno definitely kicked its arse right out of the ring. the uknow was like a pathetic weedy version of it with no balls, cold and clinical, no warmth...

thanks. i fixed it - uninstalled pulsar and valksampler, then re-installed, seemed to do the trick.

more bad noises from me. when using either audio or instruments in cubase 5, i get a loud ripping/clicking sound occurring as soon as i switch to the pulsar window and move the mouse. these problems do not occur with previous cubase versions. this also happens with the volksampler - as soon as i mov...

my ears are fucked too!! haha!

anyway, my initial feelings were that i have some kind of grounding prob actually. that would explain why the interference sounds like what you pick up with a radio, because there is a ground loop (ie radio circuit) in the pc somewhere...?? yes?

woops just read your message more carefully, you did mention the changing nature of the noise, sorry. thanks for the cubase tip tho, i'm sure that's it.

no the noise is not really continuous at all, it changes depending what the computer is doing. like you can hear the cogs going round if it was clockwork...and it completely disappears as soon as i start recording in sound forge, which suggests to me it can be got rid of. i would just think it was t...

yeah i have a usb mouse...that solution occurred to me. the interference noise still happens when i unplug the mouse though. maybe the mouse driver is creating the prob? but radio style interference sounds like a hardware thing to me. could it be that there is some kind of ground loop somewhere? i d...

i have a pulsar II on a pc. i get a low level mid/high frequency noise from the analog outputs, like the interference you pick up when a radio is placed near a computer. this noise is affected by mouse movements, and by performing windows operations - sometimes the noise stops altogether, for exampl...
