36. I'm going to bed and spend tomorrow browsing for something I want during work 😇

I can confirm it works. I bit the bullet, got SVX2 and so a 50 buy in gave me a 99 entry. Sweet.

Qualifies for Group Buy at the $99.99 tier

 

Really? Because I've been looking for an extra 99 buy-in. Do you receive a code or what and boom you're golden?

I got T-Racks 5 this time. Included is the Classic clipper. Which I already had ánd which I already picked as a freebie earlier (my own mistake for not paying attention what I had). Do I have 3 licenses now and where can I check that?

I have no personal use for this, but I love these kinds of libraries. Sounds great!

I pulled the trigger. No more LMC+ syndrome for me.

I didn't know I had perks with Groove3 (also got it with Izotope MPB). Let me have a look around, thanks.

Purchasing AmpliTube 5 SE would get you in at the $149 level. Satriani at the $99 level would then be available to you as a freebie.

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned I already bought in with Larsen and later with Mic Room. So I'm eligible voor SE.

The Satriani pack will work, but you would be missing out on AmpliTube 5's new cabinet section with VIR technology. Only available in SE and above...

Ok got it. So with my buy-in, first Amplitude 5 SE and with the next tier Satriani.

Oh and I have Wedge Force Matcha from Plugin Alliance as a guitar VST. That would work I guess. Or are there other recommendations?

If we'd only model the ADA MP-1 I stupidly sold a long time ago, I'd say just use that   But with AmpliTube 5 I'd say you could probably get that tone nicely with the Satriani pack.  His amps are great and versatile and he of course also more than dabbled in that type of tone in his time too.

Oh right, would I need Amplitude 5 SE or higher first of would the free CS be enough to get the Satriani pack working?

Thanks for the tip, will check it out. Like it's gonna cost me anything...

Gotcha! I thought a more funky sound. For this I'd try with an overdrive stomp before the Fender amp. Maybe some guitar players would know better what gear did they use for it in the 80-ties  

Allright, thanks, open question to all the players (playa's!). Any suggestions? Peter?

Not sure what type of synthwave guitar type of sound you're after but for that typical 80's Strat sound I'm using Fulltone and both Fender collections with great effect.

Well, it differs, but generally something like this:

I look at it this way, the group price makes it a very low cost way to experiment and not worry that you spent a fortune.
I say that as a person that has no guitar skills at all   Also I brought Amplitude 5 as my buy in. 

Well if (when) we get another freebie I could go for Amplitude 5 SE. Any comments?

I'm not really interested in Amps (I have NI Guitar rig and rarely use it), but would there be some gem hidden away with which I could create thát 80s synthwave guitar sound? Or is there something similar to be found in Guityar Rig (or another)?

I will admit I fell for this. It was cheaper than $27 if I remember correctly, but still. I think I saw it advertised on MixbusTV and that guy usually has good advice.

The two females who wanted a threesome when I was 21.

True story: I dodged that bullet once because I coulnd't be bothered to pick them up from a bar they were at some 10 minutes from my house. They were colleagues of mine. Found out later they both had herpes 😂

Ahem, back to plugins...

The Sampletank GUI.

So...soundwise nothing? Because I really like the Spitfire lay-out (in their own app and the Kontakt lay-out). And the ST lay-out is a bit confusing to me, but that could be because I'm not used to it.

Just wondering, what is that one deal you didn't get while it was on offer and afterwards you regret it not buying.

I know, "not buying" seems like a somewhat alien phrase here, but I'm sure there have been times.

For me: SSL LMC+

Didn't go for it when it was €30 on introduction. Now I hope it goes back to that price again.

Oh sorry nevermind, Larry beat me to it again.

A uniquely sampled guitar vst perfect for Lofi and Trap

Vinyl Guitar is a character guitar plugin. We sampled a guitar through an actual vinyl record player and then made a playable instrument out of those samples.

Right, new freebies, not shure what to get. I'm not interested in any of the Amplitude, MODO or  other guitar stuff. I could go for Philharmonik 2 CE.

What would that give me what Spitfire's Albion One and BBC SO does not give me? Or what about the Space Delay. I'm a sucker for Roland, so...

Saw the announcement on Youtube, wanted to post it on this forum. But I forgot Larry never sleeps.

It has been working great here, this is where we are now

Are you seriously accusing me of photoshopping the counter while simultaniously witnessing my paint skills? 

And there I thought I was the only one drinking....
