Great Freebie! It's nice seeing something different from them and I wasn't going to buy this (only buying bundles from UA really makes sense), but I was a bit curious about how they sound. Looking forward to trying it out Thanks

That gets us all at some point! But not bad for a total spend of $6 for you

UJAM Euphoria with UVI Relayer for $1 using code NOTOPIRACY01 https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/8687-Usynth-Euphoria

This one seems like it could be quite useful. I looked at it a few times when I was choosing the 5 bundle, but got all of their pianos instead and the upright bass.

I think it's only MaxGrade from what I saw. So I think you should hopefully be covered for that one.. probably multiple times over!

I was thinking the same too! Not holding my breath, but it would be a good way to pick it up. It's something I'm unlikely to buy, but if I got it in the group buy it could get me hooked for future versions.. it wouldn't be the first time that's happened with a group buy!

It wouldn't be an IK Group Buy if there wasn't some confusing text that was written in the worst possible way! They always have an element of guesswork...

I believe no free with hardware purchase unlocks the Group Buy as the software component is considered free. Software only counts.

Yep, I'd pretty much have to sit it out this round if they hadn't included the newer stuff.. so well played IK! UAD would have left us all out in the cold and just included all the stuff we already have from them and more LA2As etc... Haha.. The Group Buys were one of the main reasons I first looked more in-depth into all of IKs product range and subsequently have spend a heap more money with them than I otherwise would've. But given how generous they are with these I don't mind spending more with them at all. Only 102 participants until the next freebie drops.

Always love the IK group buys!! They also seem to have done pretty well in catering for existing customers who already have a lot of their software by including lots of their newer releases.

This was the one bundle that never really got discounted anywhere close to the others, let alone free that I've ever seen, but it would be nice. Apart from forgotten purchases, or having bought the individual components that make up the bundle I can't see that being the case though.. unless they were feeling really generous, or an awesome glitch! Haha..

That's hilarious.. I didn't even know I owned it, but sure enough I got that free bundle too and the serial worked in the voucher section on the PA website! I would've totally missed this one. Thanks

Install yes.. activate no.. they took the activation server offline

I think that philosophy is completely fine and I get it. For me, I'll often use a really set of nice open back headphones and the sound can be really immersive and in some ways, a quality you can't actually get from the real instruments. Especially when it comes to some of the reverbs and other modulation effects combined with higher quality VIs. So the fun is from a really nice lush sound, as well as playing the instrument (on MIDI controller), so you don't get that tactile feel and maybe the true to life quality and sound of the real instrument, but you get something amazing in it's own right. Often layered sounds that can't even be created by physical instruments.

I totally get that and it's pretty valid. Some stuff I buy purely just for enjoyment and playing. I don't always care about it outside of the the DAW and sometimes that extra quality just has a better feel to it and it makes it more enjoyable, so sometimes it's worth it for that alone for me. I do also pass on some stuff due to taking up too much disk space as well though.

That's the thing though .. they already have it. If they did nothing but simply improved the installer and just simple QA / minor tweaks, they could sell ST for years to come, with little to no development. It's already a known product, so advertising needs would be minor and even just the odd marketing campaign would keep sales ticking over. I have wondered if it's due to bandwidth requirements for downloads, but even those new pianos are large! Come to think of it... Don't think I'll buy them now as they might disctinue them for the same reason if that was the case 😂 And if it's not they might discontinue them anyway, so I'll probably given them a pass now and not buy them even though the one I've got I like!

You're not making it any easier Lars.. my money may not be safe with this deal! haha..
