I have a renewed interest in soundfonts because I am rebuilding very old tracks from 90s which used soundfonts predominantly.

Outside of the SFZ plug in cakewalk that I cannot get to work, I have been using SFORZANDO and DSK SF2 and TX16WX plugs to load the soundfonts - .sf2 and .sfz

Awave Studio DEMO for 30 days is also useful if you have any old .SBK / Emu Soundfont ver 1 files still hanging around. This program allows you to convert them to .sf2, .wav or .sfz

Not worth buying to be honest, to expensive for what it is.

Anyone else with interesting soundfont goodies post here

The new edition of BEAT has some interesting content on DVD/Download:

I have Reason 10.  If you want to try these in the 11 VST rack you might have equivalents.   I've bought from this developer before because the REs are affordable and they can only be used in Reason.   To have only proprietary synths would make me use Reason more.  That's why I don't care for Reason 11. Why would I want to open up another DAW when I have the DAW.   I'm that way with FL Studio.  

Reason 11 / Intro come with a plugin that works in likes of Cakewalk so you can use Reason native instruments and effects in Cakewalk and other DAWs. OK re your point why would you want to open another DAW BUT if you like the sounds of a native Reason instrument or effect that you wanted in a track you are developing in a Cakewalk project then this is all good surely?

Can these only be used with Reason or are they standalone vsts?

As @ZincT said once you have REASON 11 or even Reason 11 intro ( way cheaper ) which both can be used as a plugin ( the RACK Part )  in any other DAW like Cakewalk which in turn gives you access to the Reason native instruments / effects in any other DAW.

Reason 11 intro - https://www.reasonstudios.com/shop/

Ok thanks for confirming. Actually it's not taking that long to do as there not too many presets. I will post them shortly.

I had a look to see if possible to bulk export the presets to labx ... didnt seem to work. You can multi select using CTRL Click .. but Im not sure it exports those selected. Seems to be one at a time. Of course one always has BANK exports, havent tried that

Just now, GroverKen said:

ZincT - The .labx file imported perfectly. I suspected that I might need the full V Collection but I’m a long way from upgrading at the moment.

Keep in mind that ARTURIA are doing a spread payment over 4 months offer at the moment costing $5 extra to do so for upgrades and new

Running AL4 just now and wondering how you import into the individual instruments. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When AL4 open .. Click on ANALOG LAB top left and get drop down menu .. there you will find IMPORT ..

EDIT: Scotch that. That seems for AL4 presets only

Not Bad, just as long as folks know how to cancel before their month is up.

HOW TO CANCEL A SUBSCRIPTION

In order to avoid any payments to Ask.Audio you must cancel your subscription prior to the end of your subscription term by logging into Ask.Audio, selecting "My Account" then "My Subscription" and clicking cancel.

TBH after the month the monthly fee is still relatively small @ $9pm for what seems like a hell of a lot of audio training vids?

Anyone else here used it? Out of 10 on quality? I will try over next month

You should be able to kick them off Paypal if you used that as well so they will not be able to charge you.

You are not allowed to remove your payment details until autorenew is off on all subs

No, I added the 3 free issues sub (“pending”) to my ongoing subscription. 

And make sure you turn off AUTORENEW  on those free editions unless you want to keep on subscribing. Autorenew is default ON.
