  1. I don't know if the offer was still up, but there were around 1+ TB of foley sounds available to download at some stage.
  2. I am more concerned about the mental health of those who bought just the Sound City Studios plugin then had to learn they could buy a bundle with it and other 34 plugins for the same price.
  3. I don't think so, at least not in the next 20 years. One of the biggest pitfalls of using AI for generating image sequences is that the algorithm doesn't understand the image sequence you're generating has to be consistent because it's a composition. Which is why you have those weird interpolation and shifting issues with the video. The amount of doctoring necessary to make AI generated stuff passable is so much more work and with multiple people with different skill sets. An example of that was that infamous Corridor Crew video with a clickbait title they changed later (most likely due to heavy criticism) which took them six months in total to create a 4 minute animation which looks like bad rotoscoping. In that time period, they had to train at least two new algos to give them the closest output to what they wanted and had to manually doctor and tweak all generated frames in post or run it through a separate AI which did just that.
  4. While that aspect of tweaking was unique to Revalver back then (BIAS Amp has some minor form of tweaking), that extensive tweakability doesn't seem to be a feature everyone is after nowadays. Peavey really dropped the ball with the product because it had emulations of every single amp Peavey made and you could only find those emulations in their product. MTurboAmp is the product which gets closest to what Revalver does.
  5. You can buy another Push 3 or a Linnstrument for the price of that upgrade, seeing as the standalone Push 3 costs 2 grand.
  6. You can activate to a physical iLoK dongle though, but not throught software or cloud.
  7. I think it's important to mention one information this post and the other one before are missing. While Revalver 5 has a free license, you have to use a physical USB dongle to activate it. This dongle can be any USB device or an iLoK dongle. Meaning you're essentially running into the same issue Slate's Virtual Mix Rack has: The software and some of the modules are free but if you don't pay for the software, you need an iLoK dongle to activate it.
  8. I'm seeing these as what ROLI could've done with their blocks instead of being Apple centric. I still remember when Look Mum No Computer and other people started throwing screw drivers and things at the ROLI representative present when they disassembled a Seaboard block in a video because it had pentalobe screws.
  9. I don't see the SSD option coming back either. Considering Komplete itself is more than 1TB in size, the price of a 2TB SSD would be more than half of price of Komplete itselt. Better to force you to use all your data plan downloading 1+ TB of data and profit more instead.
  10. But you get a free SSD you can use for other stuff...
  11. Probably some small modification they can't publicly mention because they are related to their copy protection scheme. Or maybe they'll pull an Acustica and come up with a piss poor response.
  12. I don't think you will. This is a small company of only 7 people and I wouldn't be surprised if those controllers are sold in small runs considering their not so attractive prices, which are okay for a small company, but are not that competitive when you factor economies of scale, as you can get a whole midi keyboard for the same price of a single module.
  13. It's probably a wrapper which just loads the VST2 plugin behind the covers, as you have no option of installing just the VST3 version.
  14. And it requires a physical USB device so you can have your license on. That's a big meh for me.
  15. It's more that I'm trusting developers less and less they'll get scaling right. It's either too big or too small or the scaling value which would be right for you is not available.
  16. Didn't they also stop because, apart from Neil's death, Alex's developed hand problems which affected his playing? Now they're coming back and...I don't see much the point of it. I never see the point of bands which are long past their prime just milking their ever diminishing fan base for every cent they have. I'd rather have acts end in a higher note than become laughing stocks like Motley Crue or KISS. Everything has to end at some point.
  17. So, that's a hassle if you have to do it from your phone but doing the exact same "4 or more" steps using the H2 is fine? It might for percussion loops and the like, but that's all it does.
  18. And like every single website owned by InMusic, it's a dog's breakfast. They also mention a free version, which is a shame compared to what you get in free offers from IK and NI. Maybe you could have more functionality by tweaking the two amps they give but....I cannot get the free version to license or work. App wise, it has that annoying thing modern apps have where they never get the scaling right. You either have to use a very low resolution screen or a 16K panel for it to display correctly as the small setup is too small and the medium setup is too big.
  19. What's so painful about opening the Sound Recorder app which should come with your phone's app collection by default and hitting record? Unless this product somehow turns your phone into a magic field recorder with better mics, you're just paying to have free functionality present in essentially every single phone in the market either by default or using some third party app. Apart from the XO thing and the automatic generation part, this plugin creates slices of your audio files based off their transients and allows you to play them individually as samples. The only plugin which comes to my mind atm is Image-Line's Slicex, which is part of FL Studio. Momentum from Big Fish Audio has similar functionality with effects which can be set per slice.
  20. My main grip with it is there's nothing in this app you can't already get in existing plugins already in the market for less money. The way it looks, it's the usual "let's make a product which already exists, slap some AI BS somewhere, charge 3 times more then sell it at a discounted price which is what we'll think people will actually want the product to cost on a FOMO inducing sale."
  21. I'm not too keen on this version 10 of SpectraLayers because, like a number of people which have complained in the Steinberg forums, I can't use it. It crashes when you try to load a file into it both using ARA or with the standalone app.
  22. I don't see anything in this app which is worth even the discounted asking price.
  23. In practice, I don't see much traction in those happening simply because the page has so little information on the plugins if any. Even the screenshots for the plugins are the same for all of them.
