It's suppose to be that way. It's like those $99 guitar packages that came with a guitar, bag, and amp - and labeled made by Fender. It's an amateur package. I remember first getting into Gigastudio 2. You basically got the app and some watered down demos. I couldn't afford any of those libraries and my first one was Kirk Hunter's Diamond and GOS Lite. I was thrilled when Kontakt 2 came out and bundled with a whole orchestra. They are basically for amateurs.

I see the Refill bundle is still for sale. He also has some libraries for FL's Direct Wave.

Then some of those updates are only for a new released controller/

But people need shiny and new despite all of the great stuff cranked out with Reason 4.

I went back to collecting DAWs again because of this. I got Studio and Cubase 13 for $6 a month even though I could have just bought these. It's really no different than collecting plugins.

https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/browse/?developer=Blamsoft, Inc. I was supposedly done with REs but the Blamsoft synths are $9

Do they even sound out emails anymore about their sales? I never get them.

at $50 it's always a deal

With the Sweetwater card you can do it for $3 a month.

It's rare for Abelton to do that either.

You just had to click a little more. My post was really intended for someone to find a better deal (certain guy named Larry) to make me think about this.

Welcome to VI-Control Lite. We seem to have a deficiency of DAW drama. I didn't really help with this post. This is the only forum where we have to bring in Vi-Control drama.

That's what happens when stuffed shirts eho only can read spreadsheets and also waste money on research. Both are clueless about the DAW world.

Kinda bummed their Plus versions of SYNCHRON-ized Special Editions are cross grade prices. Otherwise they are still out of my budget.

Kontakt Player is more proprietary than Kontakt. So many of us treat Kontakt as rompler than a true sampler. I get it tho'. Gontakt rules as far as file management. You can move your libraries all over the place without issues. VSL software and support is top notch. My beef is single authorization.

TT is kinda a money pit when you start buying every genre or sub genre. It's their players that make them so attractive. If you Komplete, IK TS Max, there has to be something in there to suffice. The lowest price I've seen on EZD upgrade is usually $79.

I enjoyed it actually. I wish it were back in the day when black Friday deals were actually on Friday and this happened. I'd be forced to use what I have. That is a strange concept for me.

I'm a tuba player and liked the demo. It's not a one size fits all library. There's a lot of edge on the low end that makes it unsuitable for different styles. I guess it would be fine if you wanted to create music like on those Mexican stations.

We get real giddy over free. I've never really used their stuff. The world wont end if I fail to get one of their freebies which I most likely have. Sometimes I think phrase based apps are more difficult to work with than doing your own thing.

That worked. I will have to eventually buy something someday.

If you upgrade I think you should turn you Deals badge in, Another knock against Waves is if you do an upgrade it nulls the previous license. I know that's the point of upgrades but with so many developers they still let yu use the previous license on another system.

These games also have plenty of mods. https://www.moddb.com/ Unfortunately the recent Half-Life requires "gaming goggles" which I will never support.

I got the Century String bundle for $50 since I had two of them. Too bad I don't hoard drives to fit these libraries. Then I would need a board with 10 SATA ports. I prefer more smaller drives over too many eggs in a basket.

Who is the company were their pianos are sample modeled? That would be the way to go. If you have Kontakt you can collect those Sampletekk pianos for less than this.
