The Pasadena Presbyterian introductory price is over, but the rest of our sets are still on sale for the holidays. Enjoy!

Carson Cooman has posted several pieces on CB using the PPC Aeolian-Skinner - they are towards the bottom of this playlist:

We had a very successful "launch" of this set, so much so that we had to order more activation codes from MDA. Thanks everyone for your support!

With the switch to HW VI and an added Novation LaunchPad to my setup I've been busy fiddling. Somehow managed to wipe out all my Generals on the FCCLA by changing my generals to global. Don't know how or why.

But back to the PPC, I'm finally getting to playing and I have noticed that the Great has more acoustic than the Choir or Swell! I have no convolution reverb added, so it's just out of the box. Has anyone else noticed this? Or have I messed something up? Any thoughts?

You haven’t messed anything up - it’s a rather odd room.

It’s not something I’ve noticed, but I never run this set without reverb... I just don’t care for dry sets. If you want to run it dry, my suggestion would be to add some reverb to the other divisions and make it “match”... it shouldn’t take much.

You know we don't divulge that this early in the game. [chuckle]

So, it’s been a month!

Hahah. Yes, a month where for my “real” job as a FT church musician I’ve been cranking out all of the virtual worship services... not a whole lot of sample work going on right now. <chuckle>

But, I’ll let some info out, sure. The next set will be a 3-set bundle... the particular venue has 3 instruments onsite!

So, a teaser demo - the first of 3 sets is in beta:

(actually, 2 of the 3 are in beta, but who's keeping track?)

A wonderfully colorful performance of the Bach T+F in D-minor by John Hosking on the PPC Aeolian-Skinner. Note this performance is "as is" with no added reverb....
