Potentially it's a case of not overpromising. It's a new player and they're still building it - they've only added keyswitching (I think), and I seem to remember some talk of different mics in the works (don't quote me on that though). I hope it goes well for them too. They make some great libraries. And if the aforementioned companies and others like EastWest can do it, there's scope for Musio to work out too.

I think I've only seen one reverse of that trend: Toontrack drum libraries used to be so much cheaper than they are today. As with anything, you win some, you lose some; it all averages out over time.

Orchestral Tools' SINE Player and Spitfire Audio also come to mind.

I do remember that was the case from one place I bought from (possibly APD), but not all. But that was a little while ago; they may have changed the way they distribute to their resellers.

Have a great time!

This might be interesting

When you buy a library, you get a single file in the download (can't remember the extension). You drag and drop it on REmatrix to get a prompt to authorise. Once you do, they appear in the built-in browser in the plugin; I admit I haven't searched my drive for files resulting from authorising. I do like REmatrix, but would love to see a UI update to make the browser a bit easier to use.

I think the REmatrix libraries use a proprietary format.

Remember you can get Freezr FREE with any purchase: if you already have their other apps, you might consider buying an expansion pack.

Welcome Back, Larry!

Go for it. Just be aware that I didn't create it (I have no idea who did), and it's already floating around on the Internet.

Is this one still flagged as malware?

Could you elaborate a bit on that comment please? I know everyone has a different way of working, but it might be helpful for us who are still deciding.

From Wikipedia (green text colouring added by me to highlight the relevant text): In the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, the standard practice is to display on magazine covers a date which is some weeks or months in the future from the publishing or release date. There are two reasons for this discrepancy: first, to allow magazines to continue appearing "current" to consumers even after they have been on sale for some time (since not all magazines will be sold immediately), and second, to inform newsstands when an unsold magazine can be removed from the stands and returned to the publisher or be destroyed (in this case, the cover date is also the pull date). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_date

The date you see on magazines is the date that it should be removed from shelves, rather than when it becomes available for purchase.

Remember the min spend went up too - I think it was $125 for the $75 voucher.

How do you mean, Jim? Is it that it's not much faster, or does it lack new features?

Have a great time, Larry!

If that's true, I'm not sure what to make of this: https://babyaud.io/blog/baby-audio-has-acquired-denise-audio

127. It derives from using 8 bits to represent numbers where the largest bit is used for negative values (two's-complement). As there are only 7 bits remaining we can represent 2^7 non-negative values. Including 0, the range is 0-127. That sounds about right; the disk and memory requirements would be enormous. 8Dio love Ultra Deep Sampling their instruments and I don't think even they do it.

You could try Studio One (I know; it's a DAW rather than a plugin), or Pianoteq. It probably depends on what the notes are doing though - if they're dancing around, it might be difficult for them to recognise the overall chords.

Thanks for sharing this. I was interested in some of their other libraries. But (I'm fairly sure) I have enough Kontakt libraries to cover the areas, and I don't really want to install HALion.

I was recently looking for a MIDI controller to replace an aging IK iRig Keys (1). I ended up with an MPK mini plus: 37 mini keys, a great feature set, and a small footprint. I thought about an NI one, but it either had too few keys or was too big for the small space I have.
