    Stay safe.  Best of luck with your fam. If you get lonely or bored log on anonymously and leave us a fake deal about some unrealistic plugin so we know it was you :)

    I hand’t noticed they broke out captain beat like you mentioned.  I guess I was lucky too that got it bundled for free.  Would be cool to have a Captain Vocal next.  Maybe it could auto tune or interact with other captain plugins as a remix/mashup tool. 
    Hopefully they don’t charge me for an upgrade after for giving them this idea hahah

    I have other ideas but I’m sure they won’t adopt them like captain lazy, for writing songs for me while I nap.  Or they could partner with captain morgan to automatically control level of alcohol to make songs sound better in the studio.

    Nils Schneider has released free Nils' K1v Kawai K1 emulation for Windows, Mac and Linux.

    I really like this emulation.  Crazy that’s it’s free and now officially approved by kawai which is pretty cool for the developer.  Definitely worthy of a donation. Who knows maybe he’ll do multi-mode someday :)

    He tracks his progress/journey in his blog if you like that kind of thing.

    Zero G Ethera Soundscapes V 1.2

    Definitely looking forward to Ethera Gold 2.5.  I got the bundle a while back looking for vocals but silly me totally missed the great synths sounds included for a whole 3 months after owning the libraries. Make sure to install the snapshots as well. It does require full version of Kontakt.

    A discount on top of the bundle discount I think is a good deal.  At version 5, I like captain plugins. They keep improving them with free major updates which is also nice.  They do require an internet connection to use even within your daw just like their other plugins.  So be aware.  Main reason is it makes it harder to pirate so supports ongoing development and free updates.

    From one of their posts:

    Captain Plugins require an internet connection to use the generators (all plugins, not only Chords) 

    In Offline mode, you can: 

    Use the sounds inside the plugin

    Get the MIDI notes you've already written

    For everything else, you need an internet connection for it.

    Free update to Komplete 13 if you register a (BOXED?) Komplete 12 during September

    Posted · Edited by kevin H

    I just bought 12CE upgrade from 12U. I’m intrigued by the new stuff In K13CE.  Honestly don’t know if I have enough SSD space for everything but the way i see it is I paid $200 for 11U to 12U. So now 12U to 12CE (with free update to 13CE) for  $299 gives me a bunch of new plugins that on their own are $99 to $200 each even on sale.  This is cheaper than the NI upgrade offer they are promoting that is $300 more ($599) so seems like a steal.

    Last week you could just click to left of price on discodsp website and download the respective version for free since it’s open source or pay if you wanted to contribute.  Not sure when this changed but this weekend they now link to adsr for me.  So maybe they found a loophole to charge if hosted on another site?  Not sure.

    UVI has updated World Suite 2 (yes it requires a full re-download):

    1.0.1
    ------
    - [FIX] "German Accordion WS2" in "By Type" folder

    They really need to figure out a way to update minor stuff without a full redownload. Seems it would be expensive for them have to host all the downloads for a 20MB change.

    Neural DSP Archetype: Plini

    in Deals

    Posted

    The other thing I like about Neural is their 20% off loyalty discount for existing customers.  Once you own one of their plugins you qualify.  So if there is a new plugin at intro price, which is usually around 30% off, you then get an additional 20% putting it at around 50% off full retail price.   They are definitely on the higher cost side and more boutique but look and sound amazing.  This is my first year owning a Neural plugin so don’t have experience with BF but looking online it seems it was 30% off so if they also stacked the 20% loyalty discount it would be equivalent to 50% off now.  My wallet suffers around BF and this year I think it’s going to be crazier compared to other years.  So if you can manage and really want it, I’d get in on this one now instead of waiting later.  On my side I purchased Plini and had to pass up a few other plugin sales that I normally would’ve picked up but knowing me would have sat unused anyway. My 2cents if you are on the fence.

    I had been waiting for a sale on Plini that seemed to never come so gave up and bought it last month.  I should’ve waited just a little bit longer, maybe had two less beers that night, and put more effort into finding a bad review because everything I found said it was amazing.  I really love the sound of Plini so do yourself a favor, drink two extra beers but use Larry’s code...

    I upgraded in nov of last year from v6 to v7 for $99.  I felt that was a fair upgrade price. I did have to wait a long time for that discount though.  I don’t know if it has been offered since. Eventide plug-in intro cost is usually $39 so 3x plugins for $49 is a pretty good deal (assuming you qualify for discount).  If you have nks you can control them from within komplete kontrol which is nice.

    That's all I see too.  Seems likely it's a problem. 

    The By Type/Keys/German Accordion WS2/German Accordion Full and German Accordion Piccolo both produce a ton of missing .wav file errors (but the versions under By Region/Occidental don't).  I think UVI needs to update this.  And that means another full download.  Joy.

     

     

    I wanted to check on my side and also saw these samples missing.  I clicked on find samples and it killed ableton live.  So don’t try this experiment during a session :)
