quick question for the TT expert, if i still have EZK 1 and I get one of these EZK expansions, will they work, or it all not for EZK 2?

good find. you can search here of descending order.

FWIW.. I am a heavy ST user. I really dig the ST ecosystem. Shipwrecked and Fractured are my most used.
I can also see they are releasing a whole bunch of new ones. @Peter - IK Multimedia.. you been holding out some info!! 🙂

This reasoning is so odd to me. I feel like „sound design“ really happens after the amp sim part, so a lack of sound design options wouldn't even affect my opinion of ToneX at all. I'm looking at ToneX for TONE, not to replace an effect chain or amp suite of some sort.
is rock and roll tone is what you need, then TX is for you. 🙂

Well the amp "sim" part - where the device is simulating an amplifier (well amp - speaker - mic in this case) is in fact the best I've heard/felt.
The effects Fripp/Eno use are not "amps or amp sims" to get the weird stuff (yes, they have both used Amps and Amp sims as part of the rig over the years). So to the point/question - yes, ToneX is arguably the best amp sim on the market - but as you point out one needs to be aware it isn't a modeler that gives you the same Amp EQ tone stack when making adjustments or have the full gain range of an amp in a single profile. But for all intents and purposes, it is simulating the sound and feel of an amplifier being recorded with a speaker and microphone(s).
Once can easily use ToneX and add effects before and after it to make the crazy stuff and I find it easier to do that than a traditional amp - which is going to be limited where you put an effect "after" the speaker/mic. (note in the box you could disable cab sim in Tonex, run the IR in another loader to also put effects between those points as well).
I'm not going to call it the end all be all, because eventually I'm sure someone is going to make something that better captures the knob interactions, gain range, as well as more accurate representation of harmonics, decay, etc and interaction with the tone and volume knobs in addition to figuring out how to get latency below 3ms. Which seems imperceivable to most, but when you AB all this with playing a Trainwreck - there is a difference in how the amp responds and how ToneX does. That said, so few people get to experience something of that caliber, I can tell you that ToneX is still amazing and getting something that close to the sound in the box (and pedal) is a wonderful thing.
yes. you can use TX inside AT5. from what little i tried TX, i still feel its for guys that want to play their favorite hard rock riffs. i seem to get better mileage from AT5 as a sound design type approach to guitar sounds in a DAW.
fwiw.. it seems fripp uses fractals these days. but i still like to experiment mixing weird combinations to get tones.

I keep hearing it's basically the end of all amp sims.
I don't think so. These aren't sims. They are sort of captures in time of an amp and whatever effect (except reverb -- IIRC, it doesn't do time effects very well). I sort of see this as good for people in cover bands and people who like famous traditional electric guitar sounds. For me, I am into the werido Fripp/Eno thing where you try to make a guitar sound very weird and synthy... so for me, AT5 is still my go to tool for that. To play around in an all encompassing virtual environment of simed amps and effects and go in there and see what happens when you mix marshalls, rolands, and 10 delays.

I don't own any Fab Filter plugins, but it seems like everyone I know who is a pro or a very serious amateur has praised FabFilter as the best in the business. If I wasn't already down the road with their competitors, and heavily reliant on AI tools, I would surely be picking this up.
tempting for me too. but i am heavily invested in softube as my premium effects plugins.
but i have been seeing so many people using Pro Q and Pro C. The essentials bundle for me if I were to get it.

Never any upgrade deals for existing user, same as MCDSP.
yeah. this is no good. does not apply to upgrades.i will ask them. as i might have considered EZK upgrade with an expansion.
update: they sent out 20% off coupon via email for upgrades. now I am tempted. I havnet bought anything yet for BF.

Thanks for the info guys. I might just upgrade now rather than waiting a year - going to spend a bit more time looking at what I get in the upgarde.
Due to some hassles with using Kontakt 7 in Komplete Kontrol I am thinking about upgrading Kontakt. I know it has issues but think it would be a bit more convenient for the new libraries that run on 7. And if I'm paying $50 to upgrade Kontakt anyway...
yup. this is the only reason i am looking at the upgrade. K7 is proving to be a door stopper to some things i do. K7 full may work better. i am just hesitant to add more things on my DAW when I probably won't ever use. of the new stuff, the only thing that i may use are GR6 for the effects.

Damn. Almost got my hopes up but not looking for any choirs anytime soon. Thanks for the heads up though. Is there a list of other 3rd party deals on NI?
it should be one level up. a few bundles on there. pretty nice deals but not really my thing . I am looking around and doing cals. The new Ableton jump is not looking that bad for me. When I start comparing prices and what I may want to use and get into, an upgrade to K14 and a sonicue bundle I want would cost me about as much as a upgrade to Ableton 12 suite. hmm.. decisions decisions...

Sonible smart:bundle for their anniversary price + whatever the new de-esser is on top. Doubtful it'll happen.
I'd like to see Strezov Sampling discount stuff for 50+ % off but I doubt it'll happen either.
Maybe Orchestral Tools have cooked something really nice up?
Maybe some historical lows on some particular Melda stuff?
Perhaps Best Service's Forest Kingdom 3 if it goes down, but kinda wish they'd use a different player.
Interested in seeing what Spitfire Audio is bundling up in this year's Ton.
So basically, a lot of hopeful uncertainty.
The only certain thing at the moment will be a few ddmf plugins on Friday.
Strezov is on NI

-
my offer is $99 for V Col 9 upgrade and $69 for FX4. tempting. very temping.
but still lots of time. I will wait to see what Softube and Soniccouture will bring up next.

Absolutely not. I got that crossgrade in a $45 glitch a year ago and there wasn't a single time I picked it over BFD. There's just no reason to unless you're specifically looking for a more unrealistic / drum sampler-ish sound. I have actually uninstalled it a couple of weeks ago to make room for more BFD extensions.
This is an interesting take on this. I usually hear moon kits is the most realistic drum library on the market for the genre its meant for.

This looks really interesting.. may be my next move.. as its seems Steinberg are hosing it
-
too rich for my taste.
-
Yup. great company. Looking forward to seeing if they will offer any discount codes.

FUGA?
In Italian this means 'to evade' or 'to escape' something.... usually the law.
This service might get some very different clients in Italy. 😅
in min e it means "mold".

This product is all about the Phil Collins drum sound. Yes it is a one trick pony but it's not like they are trying to convince anyone otherwise.
yeah. mostly that. but it's a studio where quite a few different thing were done. i am most familiar with the Paul Carrack and David Crosby records.

I am sure I will get it at some point as i am a sucker for these sorts of things. but will wait for the right GB.

IK Shipwreck Pianos - $9.99
in Deals
Posted
believe it or not. stock ST are pretty good. Lots of usable stuff in there. can't complain at all.
and now that IK have done away with their download date limit restrictions for sounds, all i can say is, they are kickin' NI's ***** when it comes to listening to customer feedback and requests. I have been playing around with this audio stuff for decades, and I never ever thought I would ever see the day that IK actually rises above NI in product downloader efficiency and customer feedback.
