Does that mean Hornet is going to give me 5% of the cost ... its like 105% off, right?  They are giving it away free, including 5% of the cost!

 

Umm. No. Single plugins are 75% off. Bundles are 30% off. The discounts don't combine because they are for different things.

Right...bought Hatz. Looks pretty cool. Couple of problems so far though.

The pitch down buttons seem to be pitching up and the pitch up buttons seem to pitching down.
I'm using Hatz in Reason 12. I I right click and reset the device all output disappears. That is to say the samples don't trigger.

I've written to support so we'll see what they say. Will report back.
 

I wouldn't hold my breath. Thenatan has a history of releasing and then abandoning plugins.

Bapu?!

I took a look at their stuff some time ago and was underwhelmed. 

This is one developer I avoid like the plague. Their offerings are the very definition of bloatware.

@kitekrazyThis one is for you. 300 GB of content!!!

Did the same, but only saw a Labor Day coupon for $50 off …

I have three coupons, one for Labor day, one for $49 Moog Minimoog, and one for $99 UAD Creative Edition. Guess I am special. And like you all, I just have the Polymax freebie.

Was so lucky to get the coupon from a fellow forumite. Here I come, UAD. 

Did the code work for you? I gave my code to a forumite as well but it does not seem to be working for them.

I have a code I am not going to use. DM me if you are interested.

Don’t know if they’re still in current business though, as I don’t get any reply from them. 

They are. Andy just released Kit Creator 1.0 mid August. He was active over at KVR earlier this year.

Got that Thirty One for €1,68. Pretty good. 

Me too, then realized I already had it. Was looking for 31 in my hornet plugin folder not thirty one. That is €1,68 I'll never see again.

This plugin has nothing on SmartElectronix' Anechoic Room Simulator.

I prefer their One Ping Only plugin. It does everything that the Anechoic Room Simulator does and more.

In fact, all the examples on the Melda website deal with percussion not guitars, so as Brian says, don't write it off because your have a bunch of guitar amp simulators.

A dang good sound bank for a dang good instrument (Chromaphone) by a dang good dev (Barbara Stanwyck). 

I think you meant Daniel Stawczyk. Last I heard Barbara Stanwyck (American actress) died in 1990 and never produced sound banks for AAS.😜

I think you missed the point of that statement 😉

Which was? Guess I missed it too.

I agree that if someone has dlls and vst3 before 8/10/2023, they don't have the ones from the current / 8/10/2023 installer.

However, from what people have posted, different people can have different time stamps.  For example, mine say 4:00 AM to 4:08 AM.   If by 1:05 you mean 1:05 AM that would mean mine are later than yours.  If by 1:05 you mean 1:05 PM that would mean mine are earlier than yours and I should download the installer yet another time to see if I can get time stamps that match yours.

In the interest of science, I will do yet another installation.

Probably a timezone thing.

Hats off to the guys that made the demos. So far it sounds absolutely mediocre for me. I will work on it some more

There are MIDI files and Cubase and Protools project files in c:\ProgramData\SynfulOrchestra\Examples for some of the demos including the string quartet.

• Drumstick marks and fingerprints left behind by Zildjian family tester Armand Zildjian
• Potentially preserved fingerprints of period artists!

The fingerprints alone are maybe worth $2000!

I was tempted to respond to all these bad puns with a sad emoji, but I thought that might be too salty.

Just tried the new installer. All my Melda vsts now have a timestamp of August 10, 2023.

Correct, that's what's listed in the product description, but when you install, you get HALion Sonic 7 (when they released 7, they made the numbering consistent between HALion and HALion Sonic).

Kind of figured that was the case. I was just going by the product description.

I wish I understood how 8Dio's deal roulette works, since these were 20 buckaroonies maybe like a week ago.

You nailed it. They use a roulette wheel.

Yeah....Halion 

No snark intended - Halion is probably the most powerful piece of music software (DAWs notwithstanding) I have.   It's structure is very complex, and many people just don't get along with it (much the same is said for UVI Falcon as well).  

I really dig it though - I still struggle with its structure, but you can get some truly amazing sounds with it.

Just to clarify, the version of Halion that comes with VST Live Elements/Pro is Halion Sonic SE 3 which is the (older) free version of Halion, kind of like the player version of Kontakt. It can load 3rd party libraries but you cannot create your own instruments in it. Halion (including the free version) is at version 7. The full version of Halion is mucho buckos.

pro is like super or something really good

Okay. So what makes @JT music's opinion any more proper than @Fleer's?  Why is  Ambition and Revelation not super or really good? It would be more helpful if JTMusic explained why he only likes Collision FX.

Please have a proper opinion, the only good thing about Sound Yeti is Collision Fx, the rest is not very PRO

Translated that for you...what is it with you and PRO? What makes something PRO?

Hydro -- drench your tracks with dubious guitar tones, drown out annoying vocals.

Just realized that you are correct, it is Hydro not Hydra. The OP got it wrong.
