You should have little problem if you are cloning the drive and putting it back into the same computer. 

I have actually found Windows 10 to be less picky about hardware changes than XP as long as you don't change the way the hard drive is accessed in the BIOS, aka AHCI vs IDE/Legacy vs RAID).

I just got the email right after checking...and I think this is for Sphere users
and those who already own them.  They've added the VST Versions of the plugins
to make them usable in other DAW's...I think the update with the VST's is what's
free...

Yes. Sphere and Pro users. Not for Artist and below.

I just found out that CM and FM are available through my local library using RBDigital. That is a better deal than even $1/issue.

Future Music is also available. Anybody have any experience with Future Music? Is it a good read in addition to CM or does it cover the same territory?

Sure the pricing has been "interesting", but PercX is a really good epic drums engine and with the most recent update may be a really good normal drum kit.  I may hate the company's marketing/sales effects but I really do like the product.

Sort of how I feel about a couple of other companies that shall remain nameless.

"Today only"...let's see if it still says that tomorrow, or Tuesday, or all this week.

Still now news on Terry?

I have found new homes for all my spare AAS serials. My AAS account feels significantly lighter.

I have only Amplitube 5 CS and when trying to use the stereo routing I get a "this is a premium only feature" type of pop-up. So with T-Racks 5 they cut on resizing and now with Amplitube 5 they cut on routing... but I don't remember it mentioned anywhere. As a keyboard player I just wasted 3GB of my tiny disk space and the time for installing it.

Yes. I hate this "premium only feature" BS. At least with Amplitude 5, they made it so you can hide presets for equipment you do not own. I hated that in 4. You click on a preset only to have it tell you that you do not own everything required for the preset and that it may not sound right.

It is probably a wise idea for sample developers to have a cclarry marketing strategy.

And while you know I appreciate you, financially I may be better off blocking you! Although lately my strategy has been to only grab freebies and ultra low price stuff, temptation is never far away. It's like we're all kids and we hear the music playing that signifies cclarry's ice cream truck is passing by [and yes, it's not lost on me that the only people that analogy means anything to are Gen X and Boomers, but I liked it better than using a drug dealer and junkie analogy!] . We love you cclarry,  but ironically, while saving us a lot of money, you're also making our credit card balances larger. 

The ice cream truck still passes by my house in the summer. Still have to fight that urge to run out and flag down the truck. 

So I bought the AAS Humble Bundle and contacted AAS to see if they would exchange some of my duplicates for different packs. They were generously willing to give me two different packs. However, I still have a number of duplicates which are doing me no good and only cluttering up my AAS account. I am feeling rather generous, because of AAS's generosity to me  so I want to give away what I can't use. I think I can just pass them off to others by filling out a form on AAS's site. I don't believe there is any transfer fee.

Here is what I have to give away...

Lounge Lizard Session 4
Strum Session 2 (x2)
Ultra Analog Session 2 (x2)
Angelicals
Cinémathèque (x2)
Multiverse
Synbiosis

PM me if you want any of these. I don't want anything for them. Maybe just pay it forward to someone else someday.

Dumb question time - do these only work in Reason?

I’m afraid so. 

These are Reason Rack instruments, so if you have that (included in Reason-Lite), you can use these in any DAW that supports VST3/AU.

This looks and sounds a LOT like the UJAM guitars (which I own).  I found this after a bit of digging: https://forum.reasontalk.com/viewtopic.php?t=7492208

I wondered about this myself. So is 
A-List Acoustic Guitarist = UJAM Amber, 
Fingerpicking Nylon - A-List Guitarist = UJAM Silk, 
Pop Chords A-List Electric Guitarist = UJAM Sparkle,
Power Chords A-List Electric Guitarist = UJAM Iron?

Didn't get the email about the $10 voucher. Last email I got was about the 50% off bundle.

I installed one I picked up for like 5 or 10 bucks -- I forgot which one, I own a bunch and I've never installed any of them until last weekend -- on my son's PC I think it was Xpand!2 -- and it crashed Windows 10 and I had to do a rollback to get the computer working again. AIR had a thread about it at KVR, a rep said it's a known problem in a thread from the middle of last year and that you should just choose the option to not install PACE and just install PACE later (he claimed that the company would soon release a fix, which hasn't happened in the half a year that has since passed). Except that wasn't an option. Consequently, I own around 7 licenses for their plugins -- never installed any of them -- and I'm now extremely hesitant to install any of them after that experience. And if you do searches, you can find AT LEAST hundreds of posts in the various forums of people with identical problems with AIR and Sonivox plugins (owned by the same parent company and they have mostly been coded a decade or more ago and not had regular updates).  

I have had the PACE problem with Sonivox plugins, specifically VocalizerPro, and some of the Orchestral Companions I think. I have not had any PACE problems with Air plugins (and yes I know they are now owned by the same company) mainly because I did not install ILOK with the installer(note it is not an option to not install with the SONIVOX plugins). 

However, once the plugins are installed, they work well for me. Xpand!2 is actually pretty comprehensive as is Structure even if they do have a rather archaic interfaces. 

Looks like a Rompler with a few bells and whistles added. Not the game changer described in the videos.

What problems are you have with AIR plugins?

That's odd.  For me it was a pretty ornate install window that played music in the background.
Most don't even require "installing" they just unarchive to directories...

None of the ISOs works for me. The installer runs just as Topcheese described.

Don't bother with the "Big Ones". The installer does not work for any of the ISOs.

Ooo! Terra, Luna, and Astra are included!

Definitely dodgy. Looks like Shopify has shut them down.

Yes. I saw it on the Audiofier Youtube Channel. I actually think the third is going to be Luna, not Lunar. 

So is Veeva the plural of Veevum?  Inquiring minds want to know.

Looks like there is also Veevum TERRA coming.

Yes. All of this was much cheaper during the Christmas sale. I paid $50 for the the two year collection.

I'm speaking about this one:

https://www.jrrshop.com/jrr-sounds-orchestral-percussion-vol-1

maybe they don't plan to give it out as a freebie but I saw an "orchestral kit" mentioned too in one of my jrrshop emails

It was the "Supernatural Kits" that were given away daily, not the "Orchestral Percussion". Maybe that was another give away some other time.

Got 20. The first kit was 80's Live Kit. Not sure what Orchestral vol. 1 is.
