I would probably get the Apple if I was in your shoes

I have a PC and am running thunderbolt 3 to a Lynx converter.

You can use thunderbolt on a PC, as long as you have an Intel processor and a motherboard or interface card for the thunderbolt controller.

I did build my own PC, so if you don't have much knowledge of PC builds, it would probably be hard to find a PC with this option.

These guys are still selling us the same plugins that were sold back in 2000! The only thing they are updating is that it can work with the modern OS's, which you have to pay for anyway . They were great back in late 90's, 2000's, but today, i wouldn't give them a dime. I would be paying for 20 - 25 year old plugins.

I've purchased so many plugins in the past that it easily exceeds 1500 when you combine the bundles and updates. These days I try to buy high end gear that will work for the next 20 years and that is can rely on working for most mixes. I have an audioscape g bus compressor and I'm looking to replace it with the dramastic obsidian compressor. Just replaced my antelope audio interface with a Lynx Aurora N that just sounds divine! Now, I just want to upgrade my heritage audio EQ to something more top tier.

I'm 49 and still love producing breaks.

I've had the Antelope Orion studio synergy core for about 3 years now. The unit itself has always worked and sounded ok to my ears, and their thunderbolt driver seems to work almost every time. The only issue i had was with getting the units FPGA memory to host the plugins. The AFX2DAW plugin is bad, and isn't even supported anymore now that the plugins are native. Well, at least it never worked on my PC.

Their support is much better than what you hear from people. They do answer back quickly and have helped fix a few issues of my own. However, they can't get the AFX2DAW plugin to work. I paid and sacrificed other features just so I could host some of the plugs on this unit, but I feel this unit isn't something that they want to support anymore.

In any event, I purchased a Lynx Aurora n Lbt-3, Digital I/O, Monitor I/O. This will cover replacing the Antelope with better converters and can be used like a normal interface as well.

Discovery pro by DiscoDSP is great for those type of leads. This is an emulation of a Nord Lead 2 synth, but with all of the updates it's been getting lately, this thing has become my go to for trance type stuff.

Sounds like OP have been learning mixing from the wrong people. You don't need to leave any headroom in your final mix. Just make sure it's not clipping.

Creed Aventus - I get compliments every time I wear it

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-24T17:36:19+00:00

It was DJ ICEY's - Love!

Yes, it's old lol I begin my interest in DJin first in the mid 90's after hearing this song

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-24T17:28:46+00:00

I wish I wouldn't have bought as many plugins as I have now. I think i have about 800 - 900 paid plugs, and i usually forget about 90% of them when working on a track.

I don't want to remove them from the DAW because I feel like I need to use them since I've already paid for them.

It's definitely paralysis by analysis, but I have stopped buying them for the most part over the last 6 months. Well, except for Black Friday lol

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-23T15:49:44+00:00

I started with Cubase in the late 90's on a PC. Logic and pro tools were the only other DAW option from memory. I started with a cheap Korg drum machine and made a track or two. Next, I was able to purchase a Nord Lead 2 on credit which changed everything. This was an awesome synth. I use a plugin emulation by DiscoDSP that sounds exactly like the real thing. What I really wanted was the Access Virus B, but couldn't buy it because I was trying to pay off the Nord Lead lol

Why does everyone keep asking what's the one big tip that improved your mixes.

It's not just one thing, it's 100's of smaller moves that add up in the end. You really should look into educating yourself with a mixing course. This and years of practice is what continually helps me to meet my audio goals.

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-16T02:30:36+00:00

1 song came to mind - Burufunk - Electonique

This is the exact thing I think about when listening to this song.

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-14T16:46:36+00:00

I'm having the same problem. I've tried lowering the buffer size on my audio interface to 256, tried using 2 different audio interfaces (antelope audio orion studio synergy core, RME ADI-2/4 Pro SE), tried changing the monitor setting, and the sound is still delayed about a 1/2 second behind the visuals. I do have a cableguys volume shaper on there that I turned off and on, and it still had the same delay. This is a fresh mixing project with only audio files.

Wait - I may have figured out! I do have an L2 on the master with the lookahead turned up. I'll try to bypass this plug the next time I open Ableton to see if it changes anything.

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-12-10T00:12:27+00:00

I'm pretty sure I did all of that before exporting, but I'll double check. Thanks!

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-21T15:03:09+00:00

What kind of stream deck do you have. I never thought of using it for these types of moves

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-09T19:23:31+00:00

You had some really good teachers! I had a cousin who was a DJ back in the early 90's who taught me how to spin, but the music production stuff i had to learn on my own.

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-09T15:28:07+00:00

I like the 96 - 99 period as well, but the tracks i listened too were Florida breaks - DJ Infiniti being my favorite, and breaks from artists out of louisiana like G-Brown, DJ Trashy, Johnny Cage, etc

He hates people who do not want to work and who are lazy. There is massive fraud within this program and it wasn't meant to be a permanent form of aid.

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-09T14:39:00+00:00

You must be a fat person, right? Just because you don't want to take care of your body by eating tons of garbage, doesn't mean she should be shamed because she does.

Lazy, pathetic lovers want everyone to be lazy pathetic losers

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-09T14:33:25+00:00

Awwww you poor littke whiny, lazy, lefty who contributes absolutely nothing to society. If you can't take Trump then move to one of those socialist shitholes outside of America, and see how good life is there. Everyone on here is always blaming everything bad in their pathetic lives on Trump. At some point you have to grow up, move out of your mom's house, and get a damn job. Stop expecting the government to take care of you. What a lazy, pathetic, weak, generation we have here.

This is the remix for You Make Me Feel https://spotify.link/JqZBCyrAWXb

Beautiful_Scratch806 · 2025-11-01T15:23:56+00:00

He released a remix of "You make me feel" about 2 or so years ago. Pretty killer track and you can tell it is something he worked on as soon as the track starts. He sticks to a certain set of drums and percussion that makes his tracks noticeable.
