Although it sounds very good the consumption of my Intel 4.5 hz gets red hot, the daw becomes practically unusable...

It is a real shame to have to pay for this type of update as well as the maintenance ones, just like Studio one and Cubase one never ends up owning the software in life, one thing is to pay for improvements and incorporation of new features and another thing is this scam of pretending to profit with maintenance updates and or bug fixes because of the developers....

That might work.

But if John started giving away Unify totally free, he would probably have to lay off the lone developer, Shane, who happens to be a high-level brainiac PhD in Computer Science.

It is not so necessary, also by having a Unify standard free you could start selling many more expansions and increase revenue to have to hire more genius developers and finally be able to get the long-awaited Unify PRO... It's all a matter of having a good commercial ingenuity...

Because everyone is entitled to the labors of others for free?

Just FYI, Unify standard is the only edition, and by default the standard library contains 647 patches, which other than the "free" instruments includes 3.2 GB of factory samples for the "Guru Sampler" created by John. They are high quality. John has a decades long history of creating libraries for Omnisphere and other instruments. He is an ex-KORG sound designer.

So by default you don't need to buy anything else, just combine your existing soft synths with the factory patches and you have unlimited sound combinations. There is really nothing else comparable available, and it would make no sense to just give it away!

OK, so if one day Unify will become free.. everyone would not acquire it until they charge it back to the value it is really worth.... 🤔 We would have an empty forum thread instead of exploded comments....

I think that a good business and commercial gesture would be for pluginguru to put the Unify standard as a free Player to encourage the purchase of different expansions, personally it is expensive for me to buy a player that only incorporates instruments and effects which by default are free... Does anyone think the same?

Element is released for free at last, a plugin similar in some ways to *Unify where you can create strings of Instruments and effects and use them independently in your DAW, ideal for experimenting and creating sounds and is totally free.

The same thing happened to me, a real problem especially when the download expires (ridiculous IKM commercial policy) but very quickly I found a definitive solution, not to buy more IKM products, HOLY REMEDY! 👌

Unfortunately, end users are still the fools to pay countless times for the same software, hopefully one day they will implement some kind of law that prohibits this, until then we will have to put up with these companies that continue taking advantage of their commercial reputation to continue legally defrauding innocent customers.

Unfortunately, on the Pluginguru website you can only download an old version (v1.41) DEMO which, in my personal opinion, is very limited in terms of not being able to load the previously named free presets and it already demoralizes me to buy it, Pluginguru should at least update the DEMO. On the other hand it is nothing more than a tool to organize instr and fx plugins which could also be achieved with any DAW and a lot of patience...

Honestly I have a great disappointment with the company u-he (without with lowercase letters because they deserve it) I asked them directly they will let me the Zebra Legacy at 99 dollars in Euros and they flatly denied it, then two days later I realize that iZotope if I had it at 99 dollars final and with tax and my great frustration is, it cost u-he a lot to have good if and better treatment with customers, as I said before, honestly it is disappointing and very superb this company...

Kinda like that Vahalla dude.  They are small developers. What did you expect?

And they will not stop being so with that closed mentality of not putting annual promotions more often and trying to sell much more 👌

Only five days of offer a year and ensima only 25% for a synthesizer that is still very little updated and not even interested in promoting themselves, they think they are master and lord among plugins like "serum" that do not get off the horse in prices or sticks, obviously wrong company policy that refuse to look at how well they do the competition with respect to updates and annual offers.

I have it and he said that it is a spectacular powerful eight-part synthesizer and very easy to use but, the negative thing is that the Parawave developer is very abandoned in terms of updates and plugin support, plus not having a dedication and contact with customers which makes him somewhat distrustful when investing in this plugin....

$ 49 everywhere, here is a cat locked up, on the official website they hope for 2023 to release a version Player of BFD that will surely be free to compete in the market again, I wonder if it will be accompanied by BFD4 with a high upgrade cost?? 🤔

PB is one of the few, if not the only retail store that unfortunately works with different currency exchanges and with a marked exchange difference between them, here, from South America, purchases in retail stores anywhere in Europe or another continent charge us at the same currency exchange everywhere, that on the other hand today the official exchange between dollar, euro and pound have very little difference....

it's £36.95 at pluginboutique - might work out cheaper for some

plus you get a freebie / virtual cash / rewards too

(smells of the usual InMusic fire sale but whatever!)

 

In PB it costs $49

Support may take time but, for MMM and soundpools I have had no issues contacting a real person. I log in to my personal service area and use https://www.magix.info/us/support/form/

Well, I already think that you will have had no problem being attended by a person in real time if you are surely part of the company, magix has a lamentable customer service and it is demonstrated in the customer forums themselves that do not stop complaining about such deplorable customer service, or at least I personally did not have it.

Take advantage now that they are expensive before they give them away later at $5 in PB 😂

Magix is a company not recommended at all, it has a non-existent personalized support service, you can't get in touch directly with anyone other than a ridiculous automated support system of printed questions and answers, you can't get commercial advice before you want to make a purchase, a non-existent personalized treatment that the only thing it provides is distrust when wanting to buy, it may be a very large company and many years old which does not make it clear that they are not market leaders and all that is a product of their wrong and horrendous commercial tactics.

Pure commercial strategy, they give this away to force to update to Ozone 10, because in previous versions it does not work, the law throws the trap...

Always the same figurines repeated, it would be nice to start seeing offers of better plugins, don't you think?

Magix and Producerplanet are wrong, buying music marker Premium you only GET 3 SOUNDPOOL to choose from for NON-COMMERCIAL use, unattractive and misleading sales policies by not being properly informed in the purchase...

Trinket for beginners, given away is expensive! 👎 

You have to be patient, they will already give it away in some retail purchase..... 😂

How about if everyone just acted like grown ups and followed the rules without having to be reminded?

On what planet could you expect that? 🤔
