    Ah, thanks Dzi. I didn't see instructions to go to serialcenter.de. Also, I got the p. 46 word right, but now I notice that there are two "d's" in it, I only typed one, so I blew off the IK Multimedia One, which I already have a license for. 😄

    All this to read a magazine and putz around with Waves Element.

    Totally get that.  And I may own Waves Element.  Is it in Mercury?  Not everything is, but there isn't much that isn't. 

    I have bought the German version before just for the freebie, so it is nice to be able to read this.

    Even after reading all the instructions and advice in this thread I'm still in the content-go-round.

    Current progress: have accessed the English-language pdf, have followed the link given in it to a download site, registered yet again for yet another account with the download site, still being told by the download site that content is for Beat subscribers only and being redirected to the German language Falkemedia page where I can subscribe to Beat.

    It ain't that big a deal, I have enough soft synths and I'm more interested to finally be able to read Beat's editorial content, but still, volks, get your scheisse together.

    Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance around in circles!

    Try this link if you got the PDF - www.serialcenter.de

    I didn't have as much problems with the answer on this.  If they ask about the first word on pg46 large title, the first Big S word? those 2 words on the top are one word, no space.

    Here's the procedure (for me at least):

    • When you sign up for the newsletter you will receive an email with a link to confirm your subscription (it may take a while to come through)
    • Click on this link. Don't worry about the page that opens up.
    • You will then receive a second email with a link to download the magazine.
    • You can then do the "enter the xxx word in the large headline on page xxx" business in order to access the downloadable software.

    Problem was the last step.  I wonder if the site is expecting it in German.  🤔

    The other link takes you to the software.  I think the first link also gives other stuff. 

  4. Still waiting on my upgrades.  I wonder if I should just email them to keep the difference since I made the mistake?  I mean, if that is the problem? 

    Edit:  Email worked.  I think it was the White vs White MKII that was a problem.  And I realized there is no upgrade from White MKII to WG MKII.  My error.  Thanks Sampletekk for letting it go....

    Been asked for page 60 and the second word of the big headline and it worked (That was  for the content of the magazine).

    Then i visited the site  serialcenter.de and they asked for the third word on page 82. Worked too (Serial sended for Waves Element 2)

    I'm from Germany and used the english free  PDF

    This worked.  Thanks! 

     

    Edit:  Did not get the content, just the serial numbers.  The content one is still not working for me.

    Thanks Dzilizzi!

    I’ve got WG2MKII as wel, and it’s the shiniest, almost as shiny as the TVBO :)

    I also have the 7CG so I put in for the TVBO upgrade as well.   At 90% off, it is really hard not to buy more pianos.  How else am I going to get to 200+ pianos

    Interesting. So that Sampletekk White Grand in the APD bundle (with the Black MkII) is indeed a MkII as well. 
    So, is it the White MkII or the WG2 MkII?

    The White MKII, not the WG2MKII.  So I am still somewhat okay with paying for the upgrade to the WG2MKII.  

  8. Hm.  I should have looked.  The White is also MK2.  Oh well, guess I paid too much.  By a whole $6.  LOL!

    I was getting the GUI mixed up with the SSG.  And? I had to go back and rename the files because I never remember them based on the file name.  Which then means I forget I have them.

    Got it ages ago but still prefer Player libs. Love to see them in the library pane. 

    That I get.  I've been trying to keep all my nonplayer libraries together so I don't have to search for them across drives and drives.  But it still happens.  🥴

     

    I have no idea what that face means, but it is kind of how I feel about the mess of my Kontakt libraries.....

    Kind of a bummer they stop offering their bundles (where they discount the bundle based on what you already own) right when the sale starts.  They do seem very determined to not discount full Gravity enough for me to just buy it.

    yes, I asked about the FORZO/NOVO/VENTO bundle upgrade since I have FORZO/NOVO, but they said no.

    Check if they already are the MkII versions

     

    Definitely not.  They have a basic Kontakt library GUI.  I decided to get the WG2MKII upgrade and find out.  Worst thing is they tell me it won't work and either give me my money back or I pay the difference.

    I just got thisl: 

    Special Offer! Upgrade your Pro to the UltraPAK with Xtra Styles PAKs 1-9 and Loops-with-Style PAKs 1-2 for only $249! It's valid until June 30th. Is this a better deal than waiting for the next release sale in November? 

    Rocky

    Probably not, since you can get Loops with Style paks 1-2 for $29 and Xtra Styles Paks 1-9 for $199.  So about $230 for it all.

    But beware if you prefer the EXS24, Reason or Halion format or if you don’t have full Kontakt. 
    But if you have, the MkII instruments are worth the higher expenditure, resonance-wise. 

    Full Kontakt always! :)

  14. Rain piano!  It wasn't in the last sale.  😃

     

    What's the difference between the regular and MKII versions?  I look as soon as the sample stops playing.  I do love rags.  Oh, and now flight of the bumblebees.  My mom used to play a lot of these before her arthritis got too bad. 

    Edit: Nevermind.  The MKII was what I wanted.   3 pianos for $26!  Great deal!

    The XtraStyle PAKs sound significantly different from the normal Band-in-a-Box styles.  In part this is because the styles are created by a different person than the person that normally creates styles.

    The XtraStyle PAKs are made by a person named Jareth.  Jareth has posted in the PG Music forum a few times and when he does, it typically is a post related to an XtraStyle.

    The XtraStyles include effects, panning and instrument arrangements that really stand out when compared to a regular style.  For a beginner like me the XtraStyles are great learning templates.

    Listen to the demos, they don't sound like PG Music songs.

    That makes sense.  I swear most of the stuff I've come up with in BiaB sounds somewhere between polka music and a waltz, which is why I haven't used it as much.  You didn't know there was such a thing as polka-rock or country-waltz, did you?  Well, BiaB can do it!
