  1. I know. So did I. Chomping at the bit and missed the deal you got. Might still be some benefit to the HD when not using the consoles. Prolly not. I could go back and try to get the other deal. I'm not going to bother. I'm ok with my 58 and change. Would have been better with 41 and change.......I'll just back off the coffee next week😩 When they said a one day sale they weren't kidding. No mo. Like my good friend Mo when he left....ain't no Mo no Mo.
  2. I'll roll with that.
  3. The HD version says it's VST and AAX. That's the one I bought. I maybe falsely assumed that it was a higher resolution. In any case it's still a good deal so long as it plugs into my system as vst. It is advertised as such.
  4. I almost missed this one. 5 hours and counting left on the sale. The 6050 Ultimate channel strip 249.00. Today 69.00....or for a few more hours. LINK All plugins are on sale but this one caught my eye. The 6050 sort of looked like a Scheps Omni channel in that you can add and re arrange modules. The 4L4000 is 79......not the most intuitive as in a bunch of presets. If you can learn to use it though it rocks. Coupon code HOLIDAY 2019 brought my purchase down to 58 and change. ilok is required. Can use the ilok cloud but the dongle less demanding on your system.
  5. Thanks Cristian. Also some great deals of very usable but smaller libraries around. If money is tight no need to go spending a king's ransom on libraries. One in particular comes to mind Soundiron's Hyperion strings. 49.00 US clams buys you a lot of string power. HYPERION STRING MICRO Just used these on my last project. If a person has Kontakt they have some decent strings included too. Just sayin'.
  6. I like that the default setup colors the track tabs as you add them. Do you like that?
  7. Thanks Larry for the FYI. I hope you keep em' coming. Even iffin' it isn't something I would use...you just never know. Like others I'm covered pretty well in drums. Addicted Drummer, BFD 2, BFD 3, BFD eco. The ones in Platinum. After hearing the comments I guess I'll pass. I should be ashamed that I haven't really made very good use of all the drums I have...but you know how it is.
  8. Hope this plan goes off ok. Shot dad and Waldo ate him, figgered we would get in the tub in case Waldo gets sick.
  9. I really like the McDSP ML4000. I know it's been around awhile but it does a few things in combination the others don't. I picked it up for a good price. Tired of having to boot up the ilok cloud to use it and Cakewalk hanging on it every time I scan. I like the Softube plug ins but I think they are locked to Presonus. I like PSP Xenon which is ilok. Some pretty good East West deals show up now and then. I am curious about Slate's stuff.......but honestly I would buy the ilok just for the 4L4000. Here's shot of my ilok plug in licenses so far in the cloud. Nothing too spectacular but some of them are decent, especially the softube plug ins.
  10. Still have a little room to grow now that I cleaned a few of my drives up . I bought a 1TB SSD about a month ago that I wanted to hook up to add to these. Haven't had the time to do it. If I keep getting these kinds of libraries I'll run out of room fast.😬 Here my disk status as of now-
  11. Thanks guys for jumping in to help. Patircvk I can relate because I have bought other libraries from them before and had issues. Been using Kontakt libraries for years and seem to have the most trouble with 8dio. I couldn't multi select" multiple RAR files for unpacking using CTRL in my unzip utility no matter which utility I used. The way I made this work was weird to say the least. After going to the second RAR for unzip the Z zip utility said it seen double files and asked about replacing them. Didn't make sense to say yes however when I said no it wouldn't unzip so I said yes. It then combined the two folders. After that I unzipped my instruments folder and physically moved it to to other folder. Now everything loads up and plays as it should. Definitely NOT intuitive and the instructions included are misleading. Maybe this will help someone else.
  12. It looks like part 1 is most of the samples and part 2 which is the rest of that 1st folder . The 3rd file is the instruments. I used Z zip . If there are 3 sequential folders there should be a utility to unpack and assimilate all files. If that happened automatically for you great. The smallest or instrument folder is usually the folder that has the unpack exe in it. Mine had nothing. Are you saying one of the files isn't an RAR? All three of mine are.
  13. I haven't used the ilok dongle yet. I already have some plugins that use ilok cloud. One would think that this is the perfect solution. I thought so too, only when the cloud dials up the ilok server my software and DAW all of a sudden were slowed down. I have a fast computer and this was only using one ilok plugin. I don't have any other issues even remotely similar with this computer. The cloud worked ok but I could tell things were slowed down as soon as I loaded the plug. With the dongle I don't believe there is nearly as much interference going on. It just looks for the license, sees it and moves on. The cloud pings the ilok server every 6 minutes. If it looses connection it will throw up a warning that the plugin isn't recognized or needs to be registered.
  14. You unzipped 3 folders clicked on the first folder and everything opened? Not happening here....I downloaded the files twice. Possible corruption from this server. If it isn't going to open and I can't find the exe.... I'm not going to waste time. I did email Troels to see what he says. There should be an exe in my folder. There isn't.
  15. As much as I appreciate 8dio offering these freebs which I would gladly leave something in the tip jar however there are issues with the install. I have had issues with their libraries before. I used two different extraction programs including the one they recommend. The files extract however there is no program to extract exe in the file. I was able to look for the files and get the library loaded , but I get those grey boxes because it can't find the graphics. Same issue I had with them before on libs I bought. Their advice for the issue is to try the installation program again....but there isn't an installation program?? My unzip utility isn't seeing anything? There isn't anything in their unzipped folder.....I think they left it out. See pics-
  16. I downloaded this. Looks like a great way to build a decent acoustic guitar song. This product does not appear to use an installer....comes with 3 rar folders. I unzipped and consolidated folders. Loaded into both Kontakt 5 and 6. Documentation mentions an exe called- Songwriting Guitar PC Installer.exe. I'll be danged if I can find it.
  17. Looks like we get 10% off of that on the website!!! That's like - 0000.0000 Cool.
  18. 🤪 Like a fox...........
  19. It seems things are changing with new introductions, yet nothing has really changed. Avoid headaches. Buy Intel and be done with it.
  20. Thanks cclarry. I like the new Mixcraft. Not as much as Cakewalk, but I do loves it mightily.
  21. I bought an ilok. I know, I know, should I seek psychiatric help? I had the software ilok and hated it. Every time I wanted to use a plug in I had to load the ilok program to launch the plug in. My vst scan always flagged those plug ins,so for the price of a cheap plug in I bought one. I dunno, shelling out clams to use something I already bought seems silly. I think it might be more tempting now to look at ilok plug ins. Nothing holding me back. I once avoided them if there was something else non ilok that was similar.
  22. We went to a nice place I had made reservations prior with my wife. Stayed up until after midnight at home. New Years day all hell broke loose. 6am one of my wife's closest friends died of a heart attack in her sleep right next to her husband. Healthy woman, no history of bad health. Wasn't a drinker or drug user.....just died. Perfectly healthy and even texted my wife the day before....so we were over that their house trying to help console the husband and son left behind. I knew my wife was going to react when she found out....but man I had no idea. She is still a mess today. Needless to say, I had my hands full.
  23. Forget the vegetables and the meat....I wants coffee and chocolate.
  24. I went with violins. You can get more of them in a seat.
