Yes it was the enhancements I was referring to and I have made that clearer now in my post. Will be interested in your views Larry as you now have it. Worthwhile upgrade? Must have killer features? BTW do you ever sleep!? Must be quite early where you are?

Good to hear Mesh. 👍🏻 It's high on my list of next Audio Interface options. I just had a quick scout around at UK prices and right now it seems cheapest to buy from IKM direct as I can use maximum jam points (104.99 EUR) to bring the price down to around 265 GBP (converted from EUR) which includes courier delivery. Looking on eBay I can get around 100 GBP for my existing interface so it's pretty tempting 🤔

The enhancements to the Mix Assitant feature looks like a great new addition at least to provide a fast starting point for mixes.

Thanks Larry. I thought it was odd that there was no Neutron 2 to 3 upgrade as I would expect a better price for that. GROUP seems to work for most of the items but not for NA to N3A https://www.jrrshop.com/izotope-neutron-advanced-upgrade-advanced I will email Uncle E and let him know and also ask about the N2A to N3A option.

It's an invaluable tool as Grem says. There was a long thread on the old forum which you might find useful... http://forum.cakewalk.com/Band-in-a-Box-2019-out-now-m3801686.aspx

Thanks Harry. Link here https://www.izotope.com/en/products/mix/neutron.html Also now at JRR. https://www.jrrshop.com/izotope Extra discount at checkout using code GROUP apart from NA to N3A where GROUP is not working for some reason (have PM'd Uncle E on KVR). https://www.jrrshop.com/izotope-neutron-advanced-upgrade-advanced

Also up on Native Instruments website now... https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/summer-of-sound-2019/komplete-bundles/ https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/summer-of-sound-2019/?search=sos19_5

Yup they just confirmed on chat that Dronar was not supposed to be included! Also free shipping is for orders of £75 or more so might be better to use less points and lower it to £75 to get free shipping. I also keep getting endless loops using PayPal where I think I have paid but it takes me back to the T&S order page asking me to enter my phone number (which is already entered in my account). Doesn't inspire me with confidence despite having made lots of orders with them in the past. Going to sit on it for a day or two. I don't need the freebie and maybe I should give my local store the business. Plus as mono says it is early on in a long month.

Not heard back from T&S yet BUT... The free Dronar offer has disappeared. When you put Komplete update in your basket it includes "FREE Zero-G Kontakt Instrument worth £59.95" When you add loyalty points to your order the resulting calculations are wrong e.g. £79 minus £9 in loyalty points gives a total of £68.20 for me and it also wants to add shipping which I though was supposed to be free.

Just heard back from T&S.... So the deal is even better EXCEPT that when I tell it to add Dronar for free it tries to charge me 35 GBP. Something strange going on there as the popup to add Dronar for free says "Offer ends 2nd January" like it's an old deal unless it means that the offer is good until next January! Anyway, I have replied to Jack's email and will post any update here.

Waiting with baited breath for your first impressions Mesh 😎

Ditto, seems fine. Thanks TS.

JRR is now up. https://www.jrrshop.com/native-instruments

Thanks HIBI and TS. The last item in the list of fixes has been er...bugging me (no pun intended)!

My local store in the UK Gear4Music also has them in stock without freebie that T&S are offering but if you want it now and live nearby... https://www.gear4music.com/Music_Software/Native_Instruments-Summer-of-Sound-Offer

Just messaged T&S and received an automated reply : "Time + Space will be back on Monday."

Kinda tempted by the T&S boxed version as you effectively get a backup of the software on hard drive at no extra cost (in UK) and the Zero-G synth seems not half bad. Their site seems a bit weird at the moment though. When I add K12 update to my basket it automatically offers to add Dronar Hybrid library for free which it then charges 36 GBP for. What happened to the Free Zero-G Herz O G? Maybe they'll sort it out on Monday.

Bump! Looks like it ends on 14 June.

I will update to K12 but just waiting to see who has the best deal. Here's a comparison of Komplete versions... https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/bundles/komplete-12/compare/

Great deal. Thanks Larry.

Oh, I thought it would show me how to sing like Pharrell 🤦🏻‍♂️ I'm in anyway, thanks Larry.

Whatdyaknow, it worked!!! All I did was re-authorise ST3 and American Acoustic is now unlocked in ST4! Weird as American Acoustic was working fine in ST3 so it must have been authorised. I guess it was to do with it being already authorised before the ST4 installation. Anyway, thanks Promidi and I trust that IKM will send you some support commission 🙄

Agreed. I cannot understand why, in 2019 they don't have a clean and simple installation system like pretty much all of the other top tier "audio production software" companies.

Same here Canopus. Looks like it is free for another 25 hours and 25 minutes (as of 12:38 pm BST for those in the UK).

Worth a try. Thanks 👍🏻 I should add that American Acoustic works fine in ST3.
