I checked earlier today and mine was there.  I made the free "purchase" a couple days ago.  They didn't notify, it was just there the next time I looked.

Good to know! Thanks

Dammit. PB is currently out of serials.

I’m interested in signing up to get this freebie. Does anyone know if they have more serials now?

Normally, but if you sign up for this one you'll never be free of his constant email bombardment.

Ahhh, I see. Thanks for the heads up 👍

Can’t beat “free,” right?

Interesting.  Just for giggles, wanted to see if I could do it.  Unfortunately, no.  PayPal won't let me change my country/region.  I'm based in US.

I’m the first “fool” to fall victim and clicked to see 🤣

Just FYI, there was a limit… forgot exactly what the number was. But I eventually received a msg saying I couldn’t redeem any more free sounds. I think the limit was 300

Yep, very very similar. But competition is always a good thing for the consumer 

I wonder how well they stack up against each other  🧐

Also, the lowest price RC-20 ever dropped to was $19.99 at PB.  If Rekraft ever goes for around that price, I’d buy it.  In the meantime, I’ll happily stick to RC-20

Bro it was available at the intro price of $25.00, increasing to $49.00

Dang, I would've purchased at $25.  Where was that being sold?  Beatskillz website?

Could you share how to? I would like to get this working, since I miss Pro-53.

I have Ableton Live 11 on a MacBook Air M1.

I haven't used it yet, but this is where I would start...

Link: https://cmajor.dev/docs/GettingStarted

Just a heads-up if you sign up for their newsletter... This dev sends out emails way too much.  Felt like almost every day I was getting some sort of email from them.

I was so mad when NI discontinued Pro 53.  It was one of my fave VIs.  Never knew NI released the source code... awfully generous.  Good on them.

That's great!  It was so stupid getting rid of it in the first place.

Just watched the vid... sounds nice!

Does anyone know if he deleted some of his sample packs from Pianobook?  Just curious.

I contested the ban...and had everyone I knew over there complain, so they lifted the ban.
One of the overzealous forum Administrators banned me because he said that I was a "commercial dealer", and that was simply not true.  I only sell personal licenses that I have purchased myself.

Did they apologize? 

Looks like it could be the Steam(steam powered.com) of music software

I have a dedicated email address for all of my music-related stuff.  Keeps my main email mostly spam free  

But even with my dedicated email for music stuff, there’s certain devs/companies that email waaaay too much.  In those cases, they are insta-unsubscribed.

No spring sale for me =/

Looks like a great deal.  Has it ever been this price or lower before?

Own this game already.  Fun game!

Do you have the VSL free orchestra, Lionel? Worth picking up if you don't. All the VSL freebies are!

I do not, but I'll definitely look into it now.  Thanks for the heads up!

Also the Spitfire BBC Free Orchestra is worth getting if you are new to Orchestration

Thanks!  I'm definitely green to orchestration.  I'll definitely check this one out!

There's plenty of "I regret buying this library" on VI-C about this one. 

The general consensus being that it's very inconsistent across the mics/articulations, and badly scripted.

 

I own Spitfire BBCSO and can tell just from the demos of this "London" library that it doesn't compare favourably at all.

 

If you're new to orchestral libraries I would say save your pennies for the next Spitfire sale.  If you just want to dip your toes into the world of string libraries, I would strongly recommend one of their £29 "originals" libraries such as Originals Intimate Strings (which is truly gorgeous).

 

 

 

Thank you! Appreciate the advice 👍

Audio demos sound great!

But I’m very green to orchestral libraries. How does this stack up against the competition?
