Thanks Larry. I've been after that true peak limiter for a while but I probably won't bother now as I went ahead with Sonible Smart:Limit on the JRR crossgrade deal that you pointed out. 👍

Synthesizer V has just been updated to version 1.5.0 with further improvements to AI, including an amazing update: multilingual capability for AI voicebanks! Chinese voices singing in Japanese, Japanese voices singing in English etc. You can run check for updates from within SV and then update from the License and Updates panel. Example of Eleanor AI singing in Japanese (sounding quite human to my ears)...

I've been using Autohotkey to automate the process of making Unified libraries for PluginGuru Unify but never realised it could be made to accept MIDI data. I will check out midi4ahk and that article, thanks.

Same here, keeps timing out. Glad it's not just me!

@Heinz Hupfer Looks interesting, thanks. I noticed when I searched for CoyoteMIDI on YouTube that I could only find "problem" videos posted by you. It might be an idea to post some "how to" or tutorial videos to show what it does etc.

Worth mentioning as a separate deal Larry! I have modified my general Reason Shop Add-On post where I mention this deal to point to yours.

https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/deals/ Lots of stuff on sale until end December. I am tempted by the Enlightenspeed bundle myself. You need to own Reason, Reason Intro or Reason Lite to use the players.

Ditto!

Updated the OP now, thanks @abacab

Ah, thought so! Just tried it on Ambition

Ah well, I guess that confirms that it must be for Pigments, thanks.

Weird, I can't find the individual sound banks from this in either Pigments or Analog Lab stores. The blurb just says "Required configuration: Works in Standalone, VST, AAX, Audio Unit, NKS (64-bit DAWs only)."

Wow! That must be the cheapest I've seen it!

Existiing Pigments owners can crossgrade to this for 29.99 EUR (reduced from 89.99 EUR). New owners of Pigments get it for free! https://www.arturia.com/sound-banks/energytriadbundle

Strange, I did it with Chrome browser if that makes any difference? NVM I was referring to the link rather than the plugin.

I just clicked on "Tweet" Fleer and it then let me add it to cart, place the order and download (I also don't use Twitter or FB).

Yes I understand your (Larry's) point and I wasn't happy with the situation either. I don't understand why they decided to address it the way they have, but at least they didn't just tell us to like it or lump it.

I bought mine from Audiodeluxe in the early days of Unify. If you bought it from PG then they have a record in your account which makes it easy for them to deposit any updates in your account. If you bought it from a 3rd party then they set it up so that updates could be obtained via ILIO. For the first few updates this didn't work very well as folk who bought from PG direct had updates as they were released. However, anyone who bought from a 3rd party, like us, had to wait for days until they had the same updates from ILIO. In fairness, after some pressure from users, PG did make it so that updates were released at ILIO and PG at the same time. So the latest release, for example, was available to all at the same time. As a small company I think they have responded reasonably.

Thanks for the heads up LJ Night time Diva looks pretty nice. Any other recommendations?

Wotja is a generative music program with a long history and one of it's early incarnations was used by Brian Eno. It is available on a number of platforms; Mac, IPad OS, Windows and Android - https://intermorphic.com/wotja/21/#downloads Apple users get the best deal as their single purchase works on both Mac and IPad OS as they share a common store. Wotja 22 is due out on 1 Jan 2022 with intro pricing available now on pre-order. Wotja 21 is also currently on sale at 40% off but only includes updates until end 2021 (still worthwhile unless you need the new features in Wotja 22). Note: Due to Windows store limitations, there isn't a pre-order for Windows Wotja 22 but it will be on intro pricing from 1 Jan 22 for a limited period. Lite versions are free to use but with limited functionality. Further details on these links...

Added high resolution graphics for VST2.4 and VST3 and AAX formats for Windows PC 3. Added high resolution graphics and retina support for VST2.4, VST3, AAX and AU formats for macOS 4. The brand new Preset System - added sorting presets by categories; added Undo/Redo functionality; improved A/B functionality; improved save/load preset experience; 5. New graphical engine for MAC computers: overall smoothness improvement, 6. New graphical engine for MAC computers: reduced CPU drain, 7. Optimized loading times of GUI (MAC & PC), BUG FIXES: 1. Minor bugs fixed, 2. Improved compatibility with the latest versions of popular DAWs, 3. Improved compatibility with the latest systems. KNOWN PROBLEMS: - routing problem on multi channel (more than 2 channels) tracks in Reaper. The right channel is muted when the VST 3 plug-in is inserted. We advice to use VST 2.4. version on such tracks. TO BE DONE: 1. Improving stability between VST3 version of the plugin and Ableton Live host application, 2. Proper track routing in Reaper for more audio channels than two. Download from your account

Captain Plugins. I know it's not really an instrument although it comes with some pretty decent sounds (e.g. Piano Strings) and Beat for drums. I just find the UI extremely clunky and unintuitive compared to other similar things and the constant need to "phone home" is also frutsrating. There's allegedly a new version out soon so I will keep my fingers crossed for an improved experience.

Thanks Larry! Just had a look on the Sound Yeti website to see if there's a trial version but no luck. I will have a listen to the demos/YouTube videos. In the meantime, I see that you posted about their free stuff already but in case anyone missed it here's your post.

Thanks @Variorum 🎅🏻👍 You should have a "donate" button somewhere on your website for all the effort you put into this.

Is this a good one Larry? (notwithstanding comments by @Fleer 😀
