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?

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.

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.

Got the complete set! Yippee!

I think that is £18.99 not $18.99. At least that is what shows up for me. Edit. Nevermind. When I switch the currency to USD, it is also $18.99.

The only way I would have a chance of keeping such a New Year's resolution would be if I did not come back here to the Deals forum for a whole year. Ain't gonna happen.

The Quickload is a much better tool and easier to use than the Session Audio tip. TBH, I find the Library tab next to useless. Too much real estate taken up by the graphics, and no easy way to reorganize your libraries, short of changing the folder structure.

I suspect it is those developers who have paid for the Kontakt Player license who get to have their libraries show up in the Library panel. The nicnt file format is proprietary and producing them is a bit of a grey area. The NI application for producing nicnt files is not available to mere mortals. See this thread from 2015: https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/creating-custom-nicnt-for-libraries-illegal.257097/

Exactly. It is a step backward in that you cannot use it on any product that costs less than $39, but it is a step forward in that you get another dollar off for any product that cost $39 or more. I was looking at the HG-2 and it would have cost me $19, yesterday. Now it will only cost me $18.

When playing with this one, don't forget to try the mod wheel. It does some cool things to the sound.

Some good sounds in this one too!

Wonder if we will get 18, 19, and 20?

I just looked up the specs required for Digital Orchestra Pro... Min Processor Type: Intel 486 or higher - 66 MHz Min RAM Size: 8 MB Min Hard Drive Space: 10 MB Ah, those were the days.

But, but, but, what if there is a not to be missed, once in a lifetime, regret for the rest of your life that you missed it deal during that month?

Merry Christmas, from the west coast of Canada. For the first time in years, we have snow outside, so strangely enough I feel more in the spirit, despite all the weirdness going on in the world. Rain is coming tomorrow for Christmas day but I can still dream of a white Christmas.
