I am not seeing 50% off everything.

More accurately, Arturia Synth Month Sale (Exclusive)

50% off the four lised by @satya

Oddly enough, there are some PB discrepancies:  VC9 $299/$328.90 & FXC4 $249/$273.90

Again a coupon code that I won't use myself, so y'all can have it: D6T7GMSRW4CV

Generic, same code I received. I have the Violin and Cello but in the same "bank account says no" condition!

Enjoy your time away, Larry!

UN & PW permanent and can't be changed but MS requires it changed on first login?  LOL, uh no.

By the way, is it common that you get new keys for the Exponential Audio reverbs and Melodyne Essentials when you upgrade MPS? Or is this only the advantage if you buy the upgrade externally (from JRR instead of iZotope)?

I believe so.  I've shared unneeded (duplicate i.e. multiple) serials with friends with success.  e.g. Celemony Melodyne.

Dialog Match is a iZotope Plugin? I can't seem to find it.

AAX only - ProTools exclusively

Apologies in advance, but I couldn't resist.....

Me too…

Again, through chat:

"Actually, only a couple of very specific legatos were not carried forward.  Over 95% of the same content is still there."

They did send me an invoice for Adagio 2.0.  Thanks again for the info!

EDIT: and, Adagietto is now in my account ☺️

I have Anthology Strings, but currently 8DIO charges $148 for the Adagietto Ensemble Strings... 😥

If you send a message to support, they'll send you an invoice for adagietto for free and adagio for $8. I did it through their chat on their website a few days ago. 

I just chatted with 8Dio and was told ...

Hawk: Hello there.  Everything in adagio and adagietto is in anthology.
Me: Okay, so no reason to purchase or download these correct?
Hawk: Not specifically no
 

I had to look back but found that I bought this for $49 back in 2017.  Good set for $24.  Looks like Funky Guitar 2 & Funky Bass are new to the list.

I tried, I really tried, but ...

Now, I'm pi$$ed.  I paid $11 - $0.38 = $10.62 back in February, I could've saved a buck had I waited!  Maybe wait 'til BF?

BTW, thank you PB for letting me know (obviously 1. I use this a lot & 2. I need therapy!

In answer to above Qs .. the Convology complete and content mentioned in the install has NO LICENSE I could find so dont bother installing it, untick the Convology items in previous screen to below, do same with the APU plugins i would say. This bundle in reality only includes Samplitude Pro X5 software, no more. 

Correct, however, you can see what does come with it HERE as opposed to Music Studio and Suite versions.

found it - under the "support" part of their website - annoying !

Yep, buried pretty good

You can also use the 20% off everything code, JULY4 to make it $48.  Not sure you can stack another 20% as I haven't received the coupon.

that's very interesting - are you on windows and running plugin  v1.7 ? and which version of BBCSO (pro/core/discover) ?

on Windows the BBCSO plugin logs are in the folder c:\users\<username>\appdata\roaming\com.spitfireaudio\

Each time the plugin is initialised it generates a new log (.txt file) with a day/date in the file name.

Win 11 Pro, BBCSO Pro

Everything but the player updated to v1.7 as posted above.  Yes, I have several logs but most of them are without errors - I've posted two below with and without.  Unfortunately, I don't know at which point and log file the player successfully updated.  I think it was when I reinstalled Core but I don't know which log file that is.

Log without error - (first attempt to update) this was at the point player still showed as 1.5

Log with error

Log without error (most recent) - this was at the point player showed 1.7 (most recent)

It's interesting and confusing looking at the various player and patch versions listed within the log which don't all show 1.7. 

...code still works.

do you get the errors in the log file as per that VI forum post ? 

I have no errors listed in the log files.  SA installer has always seemed a little funky if not slow to finish updates/installs.  Sometimes taking a few times of closing and opening to make it stick not unlike my old Chevy truck door!

Here's a potential solution:  Do a 'repair' on either the Piano/Core/Discover and it will install the version 1.7 plugin.

Yo can read about it here.

I think that's what did it for me after a lot of trial and error.  Thanks!  The plugin now shows as 1.7 when opening inside the DAW and the plugin doesn't show in the list inside SA installer.  No piano for me.

Should be 1.7 now if I’m not mistaken, but I haven’t updated yet. 

Yep

Is there a link for information on the update?

Evidently, Spitfire is not keen on sharing that info.

So.... no big deal?

The concept of charging someone more because they legitimately bought a product at a discount through their official reseller is a bit anti customer in my book.

+1, my feelings as well.  What business is it of Deskew if an official reseller gave a discount - this is like saying screw PA and you and demanding the FULL retail price after "legitimately" purchasing it.  I purchased GP3 listed at $69 for $44.99 after completing a survey for $25 off.   Below is how I purchased GP4.  Guess which crossgrade price they'll offer me - $199; $99; $70!?

Again, depending on the Deskew/PA agreement, Deskew got the same money from PA whether PA used their own provided Loyalty/Survey Vouchers or not.  Of course, I'm assuming and it may have been calculated proportionally, but it still stinks.  The only caveat I see is that Deskew wisely distinguished the two versions from the start, i.e. PA version vs. direct purchase version even though they basically were the same. 

MAGIX used a similar technique recently with their "buy Samplitude ProX 7 for $299 and get ProX8 free."  IF you purchased directly from MAGIX.  I purchased X7 Suite for $159 through Safe Harbor in May.  When X8 was released, MAGIX told me that it didn't apply to me since I didn't purchase it through them.  SH told me to send them the invoice anyway and request the upgrade.  I was pleasantly surprised to find my X8 serial in my inbox the next morning. It would be nice if Deskew would concede but I'm not holding my breath.  At least they're consistent?

I really like the program which allowed me to setup a live system using a Dell Micro PC, interface, and Behringer Motor 61 which I used to play VSTi's as well as mix FOH (3 layers of 8 motorized faders) and IEMs with VST FX  (controlled by 3 layers of 8 knobs) and control playback of backing tracks (from the 3 layers of 8 pads and transport controls).  Really pretty remarkable.  But still.....this sucks.
