Very sad news indeed

Kontakt Player too 😀

A day without learning is a day wasted applies here I think 😉

Hey Simeon you sound so much more slick nowadays 😉 Great to see this though

Cheers!

Welcome Bulent - look forward to your contributions - they will be appreciated!

They just keep coming! 🙂

I'm not now 🙂 Got more than I need now with IK Total Max 2, Garritan PO and all my freebies / cheapies! I'm still tempted by Desert Winds for the excellent duduk though but waiting to see if it ever goes below £50!

As well as John's videos linked to in his post I can highly recommend Mike at Creative Sauce who has done a whole series on starting out with Cakewalk as well as many other tutorials using the DAW. His approach is clear and friendly and I still refer back to his videos to remind myself how to do stuff. This series is three years old now and there are some new features that aren't covered but it should still be a good starting point to give you a basic idea. As others have said it would probably take a lifetime to learn and use everything but you can get good results quite quickly Good luck!

As long as it was Kontakt Player!

Thanks Craig - I doubt if I'd ever be able to justify buying any of their libraries but forewarned is forearmed!

They're certainly on a roll and I like the fact that you can now authorise to a PC iLok rather than a dongle as that had put me off until now. Only free one I haven't downloaded yet is the piano as I don't know if it will be worth taking up disc space when I have several pianos in IK Total Max 2 and also the Freddy Mercury piano

Also dongle free now. The dongle had put me off previously

Ah I had that problem once and it was indeed an external hard drive disconnecting & reconnecting without any notification. Moved everything of value off it just in case and replaced with an external SSD. Of course it stopped doing it as soon as soon as I paid for the new drive!

Firewall has asked me if I want to install the VSL Midi driver - I hope I did the right thing by saying yes!

Thanks - I'm just watching their video that confirms this 🙂

I can't keep up! 😱😱

I've just installed the NI Ethereal Earth offered free as part of this package but it says on the website and in Native Access that it is a demo version. Also a weird way to download via a ISO disc image!

Is Big Bang Orchestra available now with onboard iLok rather than USB key? - I didn't get it previously as I would have needed a dongle. This flute looks interesting!

Thanks Jason

I thought I had that on my main PC but I don't so that's good. I'll check the old laptop. Thanks for the heads up

Ah I see - thanks - I don't have Komplete Now so that would explain it! I'll stick with V1

V1 - when the update wasn't offered in Native Access I went to the website but the download there was V1 too
