Installed (I have the subscription), a very quick listen to some of the presets and a bit of tweaking and I think its going to be a winner.

I agree. These days I don’t buy any plugin unless it’s something totally different from what I already have. I’ve been playing through the presets now for a while and I find Aurora to be really inspiring, although I tend to turn off Textures for most of them.

As for the crossgrade price, I bought Aurora for €39. I do have the UVI Keysuite Bundle, so that might be it.

A Press Desk article at KVR says this:

Quote

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
Aurora is available immediately with a special introductory price of $79 / 79€, with crossgrade pricing of $39 / 39€ for users of Austrian Grand, now through February 25th, 2024 (regularly $129 / 129€) [emphasis added]

I have no idea of the validity of this; I'm just posting it because I was curious after seeing the posts here. 

JMO: I think it is in manufacturers' and consumers' interest to be transparent about details like this.

I think I see a pattern here.

As for Aurora, UVI says: “Aurora’s piano sound is based on a world-class concert grand recorded at the renowned Guillaume Tell sound stage in Paris.

As for Austrian Grand, UVI says: “Billed as the ultimate concert grand, the Austrian Grand is renowned for its rich sound and exemplary dynamics. Deeply multi-sampled at the Guillaume Tell sound stage in Paris […]

So, I would guess that the reason for letting owners of Austrian Grand get a deep discount is that Aurora most likely is based on the same samples. I really like Austrian Grand (a Bösendorfer), not least because of its clear, dark bass tones.

I see Aurora as an add-on to the Austrian Grand, like a soundware pack, adding more samples and presets. Pretty pretty good. 

Indeed it is. So, does this mean that you've bought it?

In da house!

Aurora is a GB or so larger than Austrian, and has 1500 more samples as well as some 200 more presets, according to the info on UVI’s website for both titles. But there’s a lot of processing added as well.
