If you use a DAW,
Native Instruments is giving away their Analog Dreams synth Vst until March 31, if you hadn’t heard yet. (Or forgot, like me.. I didn’t want to fight the rush/nightmare to download… Then promptly forgot until today.)
https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/play-series/analog-dreams/
They make really nice stuff. Worth checking them out.
March 28, 2020 at 11:57 am #36441mac1984ParticipantI feel stupid here, but I can’t figure out how to open analog dreams. I downloaded the native access thing, then downloaded analog dreams through it. When I click on the “installed” items, it shows analog dreams. When I click on analog dreams, there is no option to open it. It just shows the downloaded path. When I go to the downloaded path, its just a bunch of random documents.
So basically, how do I open analog dreams?????
Thanks, I appreciate your help!!!!!

Do you have a DAW yet? If so, which one? (And don’t bother reading the rest of this)
If not, only get software from legitimate company websites, but:
Ableton Live (Andrew’s recommended DAW in the recording course here) and many other DAWs, have free trials if you want to test some out.
FL Studio has an unlimited-time, free trial with some blocked features like saving your project. You still can make mp3’s of your ukulele playing using the trial if you have a way to record your uke. (See Andrew’s recording course for basic equipment and details if needed.)
Ableton Live is a 30 day fully functional trial I think? (I don’t know for sure now, you’d need to look it up.)
Sweetwater has a list of premium DAW software to start researching different brands if you wish too. Other large music dealers in other countries non-USA probably do too if you are not in the USA. Each brand has different tiers, from the basics to fully loaded with extras. Prices reflect how “loaded” they are, or if they’re intended for schools, pros, etc.
Don’t buy one though until you try some different ones out.

Last day to download free if it’s something anyone is interested in, otherwise it’s $50 in the future.
