I've rarely used it but I always buy the upgrades since they give your a great deal if you have a Pro license.

 Interest that during Image Line's BF sale you got 5  free Producer Loop libraries.  I haven't opened those and these new ones.  I spent a few days clearing out loops and now I'm adding them again. 

We probably shouldn't even put this developer in this forum.

Nice! I got something called "The indie mixtape" where the only thing that looks interesting is the soundtrack

You seem to be going to the older bundle, there is a "Fanatical Music Bundle by MAGIX" (expired) and a "Fanatical Music Bundle 2 by MAGIX" (current)

Samplitude Music Studio is a major disappointment.   MP3 Deluxe might be the best thing in there.

 I got a racing game. Those are ones I would never buy. 

Worst sale is Reason's sub for a year and it is not stack-able.  It's a big F You to long time users that are not brainwashed fanboyz.

 I have yet to use the ones I have.

For a minute I thought it was the name of a new library.

I know it's mentioned in the posts somewhere.   I'm looking to grab one of this month's  free items but just want to buy some super low cost throw away item.

Suggestion please?

or just guy something you really want........I got the Scaler 2 tutorial video for $11.   If you have AAS stuff buy a pack and get the other free.

The only thing surprising in this video is that people still using 1024 x 768 screens lol 

It's pretty handy for US with severe vision problems.  Some are finding outside of gaming and video editing hi res is overrated unless you like the look of tiny font and knobs that make  you think you are losing your eyesight. 

Hopefully more developers will make resizable GUIs. They will charge for them and call em upgrades.

If he did that, Pro Tools would probably be #1, with FL Studio and Cakewalk last... 😉

Those would not even be on the list.

Yup, wondered what he was thinking about Studio One there... but otherwise his list was about what I expected.

I tried FL Studio some years ago, but couldn't work with it. According to his survey, FL Studio is #1 for EDM, so I guess that EDM producers must be the biggest DAW market these days.

It's been that way for awhile.  How many traditional  DAW forums will you see complaints are the upgrades are for EDM producers.

 Not surprised FL is #1 bit I doubt the pros say this.  It's not the traditional workflow but it gets as deep as Reaper.

Anyone can make these best DAW videos. It's easy to find lack of knowledge in this video.

These should be separated from those who make money off their work and the hobbyist.

Such things for the hobbyist involved are licensing, long term cost, frequency of updates, support.  This is where FL and Reaper rule,  You engage with the developers.

I find Cubase totally annoying opening and also having to close twice.

Live Suite upgrade is overpriced considering much of it is not updated.  There are some dance producers who have ditched Live for Logic.  My assumption is it s more desktop friendly.

Silly things I've read is the reason why Live and FL are possible is they are easily cracked.  One will call a DAW a toy. Well they are all toys to me anyway.  The worst fanboys I've seen are Reason and Finale users.  They remind me of Steam forums.

I jumped.  I have not used Producer Loops before. 20 Gigs WAV  format audio.  Pretty well categorized by folders ( Library, Group, Loops/MIDI/Oneshots, Instruments.  Long file names reflect Library, Group, tempo, key, dry/wet.  Aleatoric/Foley have descriptions.  Some duplication as far as dry and wet versions. I can't dig very deep yet- familial obligations   Fill your HD for only a buck a gig- why not?  I got my $ worth.

So what free game did you get?

I've had a lot of Producer Loops stuff and it gets bloated.  With most libraries I delete the wav files and keep this midi and kit mixdown. 

I always enjoy the extra 30 shortcuts on my desktop,

It use to be a toss up between games and DAW stuff.  

Modern games pretty much suck these days and are bloated.

Sample developers are going in the same direction with bloat.

Developers are trying to push the sub model.

Some get acquired by investors who are clueless about the DAW market and piss all over things.  I'd be surprised if Reason is aound 10 years from now.

Many of these negatives will start to eliminate our choices and that's probably a good thing.

I think Badlab has gotten much better than when it was Cakewalk.  I still promote it to people looking to switch DAWs.

the two major issues with Social Security are.

1.  First and foremost, our Crooked Congress has stolen (and spent) the money
2.  The boomers are coming of age to collect, and that's HUGE, so they will try to do everything
       that they can to discourage us from collecting.  If the CROOKS in Congress had their way,
       SS would be eliminated...because they've already stolen the money!  That's why they have
      started calling it an "Entitlement", which it's NOT!  WE PAID FOR IT!  And if they had RIGHTLY
      paid us INTEREST on the money in our accounts, we'd be LOADED for retirement!  Instead,
      Creepy Joe, when he was a Senator, decided to back the TAXING of Social Security, and THEN
      he backed the INCREASE of taxes on Social Security, even though SS was supposed to be "Tax free"!

CROOKS AND CHARLATANS...one and all!

You know this violates the forum rules.

I think ever since it was created there were hopes most people would die before they collected it.

Back on topic - who's gonna jump on this first?

Tell us what it says so we don't have to do any work 

I may be mistaken but there is no language called royalty free.

Read the license before you buy.

BTW you get a free mystery game.

Looking at the title I really can't share my thoughts since I have my head up my *****.

This is very tempting.  Most of them have midi files.  There is links to the descriptions as well.

 We all get hot and ***** over these over these free libraries but how many of us ever bothered to use them.  The consensus is phrase based libraries usually have a short term interest.  I have a lot of their stuff and don't really use it.

This was given away free long ago.  😀

Yes, after installing it I deleted because it was not very good.
