I knew it wouldn't last long, but I did expect hopefully it would last it little longer so a few more people could get it. It took me a few blinks and triple checking to make sure it was actually the full version 😂

Oh man... that was quick.. I must have snatched it right before it got pulled!

I thought they would be really bad, as they aren't giant installs, which often means pretty average when it comes to pianos, but some of the freebies really surprised me. I'm not sure if its a combination of samples and modelling, or he just worked out some nice tricks to make them sound better for such a small amount of disk space. But I've enjoyed playing the free ones, so for that price it's easily worth it for me. Sometimes different options just inspire different ideas, so I don't mind having a few. Have you tried his free ones yet? Currently this Lite one is free: https://www.bozmasterkeys.com/product/new-york-l-1926/ Not sure if that's the one I liked or not, but it should give you some idea either way. Then of course the Pro versions will be better, so good to keep that in mind too.

Stacks with the upgrade to the Master Keys - All Piano Bundle, making the upgrade from the free ones to the bundle which includes every pro version piano they have for only $34.50. https://bozmasterkeys.com/product/all-pianos-bundle/

Should charge them WUP if they want to constantly run it on our systems..

What would everyone's top 3 libraries from Orange Tree be? I have seen many people praise Evolution Strawberry in particular, but I'm not as familiar with their other libraries, so I'm curious to hear everyone's recommendations. I've got The Famous E Electric Piano and I really like that one

It did occur to me at the time as well, but it was also a plausible deal given it was from PiB and some of the older products in particular that they sell can have some crazy low prices at times.. But Korg also seems to have really consistent sales that don't fluctuate much on their lowest prices. I hope it at least helped some people get them for that price!

Oh nooooo... I wonder if it was a pricing mistake! It shows that for me now too.. I would've already snatched them but I own the bundle 🤣

Best comment ever! The internet has been won for today 🤣

That is the trap! It's cheap upgrades up to a point, instead of just paying for WUP but then you run out of those options.. and have even more plugins that then might eventually need WUP 🤣

I caved a while ago and got the bundle. I really like it. The MS-20 is a good one too. Somehow it sounds a bit different to some of my other emulations and so adds something to my kit.

Definitely a great price! The crossgrades are on sale at PiB now too. KORG Collection 5 Crossgrade from 2 KORG Products should work if buy both of them by the looks. That's only $99.99 (+$24 for initial ones) https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/81-Bundles/58-Instrument-Bundles/14589-KORG-Collection-5-Crossgrade-from-2-KORG-Products otherwise from one is $149: KORG Collection 5 Crossgrade from 1 KORG Product https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/81-Bundles/58-Instrument-Bundles/14588-KORG-Collection-5-Crossgrade-from-1-KORG-Product Some of the Wave Alchemy reverbs are very good too!

Signed up as well. I'm looking forward to checking out some more of their libraries

Check this post: They mention it having a free tier and the table with the differences. They should really have updated the website to reflect that too. Not sure why it's not.

I removed the whole VST2 folder from the config and it still failed on just VST3 🤣 I periodically clean out my 32 bit folders as lazy developers keep installing stuff to them over time instead of updating their installer, or giving us choice in formats to install. I have now just deleted any other folders in the config and only left the VST3 path for 64. Will see how that goes.

Reaper is a little different in that they do say it's not free and only for evaluation. But of course half the world treats it as free 🤣 I do think that works in their favour though. I reckon a bunch of people eventually buy it as they use it more and become more familiar with it. I was surprised with this one that it presents as a demo. Given they said free, I didn't expect it to have the popup and banner. It doesn't really matter I guess, but I wasn't expecting that.

Yeah it can be a little heavy. But in general, some of IK's plugins are, like tapes. So stacking them together I guess it adds up. Very true re Mac.. that alone is enough to stop me considering using them for my primary DAW.

I thought the free offer was pretty generous. The free versions that some companies offer are so crippled that I don't even spend enough time using them to really consider buying their full product. I'd already installed this, but unfortunately it's having problems completing plugin scans. I haven't checked the log files yet and I do have a lot of plugins (a lot! 🤣), but it doesn't seem to get far. The worst part is it was failing in VST2 plugins that I don't even use. That's why I hate companies forcing you to install other formats. Softube and Arturia are prime examples. The scan was failing on Arturia on the last pass. Not a great intro to this version and needing to troubleshoot right from the get-go.
