Which TPM model do you need for your Asus? I found the Asus 14-1 pin v2.0 module that I need at Amazon and Newegg.

My header is 14 pin. My search results said the amazon module was "currently unavailable" and newegg was out of stock. At the time of my post I didn't realize the AMD CPU has a firmware version of TPM built-in.

I also have an ASUS TUF X570-Plus. My processor is an 3700x. I just needed to turn on fTPM (firmware TPM as opposed to discrete TPM) in the bios to get TPM 2.0 support. I believe all Ryzen CPUs have TPM built in. 

Interesting. I didn't even bother going into the BIOS after I read in the ASUS manual that the motherboard only had a TPM header.  I checked the BIOS afterwards and saw the setting you mentioned, but after reading the attached notification I'm leaving it disabled.

I have no intention of updating to W11 but I was curious if my brand new state-of-the-art computer (ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus with AMD Ryzen 5600X) would pass muster. Since we're dealing with Microsoft here, I guessed not, and I was correct. My motherboard has a header for TPM, but no chip. It is purchased separately, and of course it is not in stock anywhere. And now that we all know TPM is a requirement for W11 it will be impossible to find at a reasonable price. Thanks Windows 11, and buh-bye! Don't let the door hit you on the way out. 👉

K13 serial received. 😍

No K13 serial number yet, but I just received the serial for Maschine, which I ordered at the same time.

I'm betting on June 25, for absolutely no other reason than it is Dikembe Mutombo's birthday. 🎂

I got this from T&S this morning in response to an email I sent them:

We apologise for the delay in shipping your order. Our stock arrived in the UK on the 10th June but due to Brexit / UK Customs and despite notification it was released and would be delivered yesterday, we are still waiting. Native Instruments have confirmed their shipping documents are correct, all duties and fees were paid and they are working to get it released and delivered. Our following stock order has also been shipped by NI and will be in the country tomorrow. We have sufficient stock being delivered to fulfil all orders and spare.

As soon as it is here your delivery will be confirmed by email which will also confirm your tracking number.

 

I received the same email this morning. The way it is worded, it sounds like some orders will not be fulfilled from the first shipment, but will be in a second shipment which is expected to arrive in the UK tomorrow. The second shipment may be delayed another week in customs, like the first shipment was.

FYI, the Windows software update for Stylus RMX has a broken link. I emailed support.

still no license email from TimeSpace, think we should ask for interest 😂 🤣 😅

They told me they expected to see product from NI by the end of the week. (They also said that last week.) With Brexit / Covid / End of the World/  etc / etc, no one really knows how long it will take. I try to look at it this way: I waited 8 months to purchase the upgrade. I can wait a little while longer. AND, I saved $10 I can spend on something else! 🥂

I've had my HD-600s for quite a few years now. Eventually the inner headband wore out as did the foam covers over the transducers. Replaced them both for under $20.

These are my non-DAW hp's that I use to check final mixes on.

I've had my HD 555s for 12 years. Most comfortable headphones ever. I was just going to replace the ear pads then I saw the Sweetwater sale and decided this would be a good time to finally upgrade.

I just stepped up from my venerable HD 555s to HD 600. On sale now at Sweetwater for $299.

Has anyone seen a bundle for Maschine MK3 + K13 Ultimate CE Update (NOT Upgrade)? I have K12 Ultimate CE.

Ha, my purchase must have woken up someone at the other end. I almost feel guilty. Almost...

I just purchased it for $129 (US dollars). It *is* the current version: M-Tron Pro v3 with all the expansions, including Streetly Vol 6. I assumed it was an earlier version because of the price and one expansion was missing in the description.

https://www.bestservice.com/m-tron_pro_complete.html

This appears to be an earlier version of M-Tron Pro and it is missing Streetly Tapes Vol 6, but it is 1/3 the price of the current version of Complete. For someone interested in M-Tron, is there any reason NOT to jump on this?
