Not sure if this goes towards what you're looking for, but it might help https://ddmf.eu/virtual-audio-stream/ If I understand correctly, feed your browser to its effects rack, put your corrective software on the rack, and output to your speakers.

I believe I remember seeing that green is smoother; red has a more aggressive edge.

I doubt it, but you could try an experiment: play your song and record it in real-time through a loopback interface, and try uploading that.

The language seems a bit over-the-top to me. That said, the reviewer's location is (supposedly) Netherlands; it might be an auto-translation thing? Or they could just be colourful. In any case... I've always thought I have enough 'auto-finishers' like IK Multimedia's Lurssen Mastering, and various other plugins from PA and iZotope that I should probably use those (i.e. use the stuff I already have). Cloudbounce may (or may not?) be quicker, but it's not like I personally have any tight musical deadlines; of course, those that do may feel differently.

I've learned one trick. After the installer downloads and starts, go to Task Manager. In the details tab, find the process for the installer. Right click on that, go to it's location. You can then copy the folder (which will be the required setup files) as a backup and use it to install it offline (though you'll still need to go online for activation).

It may have done at some point, but that doesn't seem to be the case today

There's an explanation of what Plus is here: https://karanyisounds.com/introducing-karanyi-sounds-plus-and-new-dlc-options/

From the website (bold added by me for emphasis): At the heart of this library lies the deep resonant tones of a set of seven crystal singing bowls, captured at the healing frequency of 432Hz. With the sound being close to a raw sine wave, its synth-like qualities can easily be moulded into any shape. Are they hooking into the 432Hz argument of 'better' sounding music?

It'll open in K7 Player, which can co-exist with K6.

That's where I got it. It was bundled with Escape Motions' other titles too!

With that many photos, the delay is completely understandable ? Looks like it was fun; glad you had a great time.

And for general promotion. They had a composition competition one year, where entrants were asked to compose (something like) a 1 minute track using any (and only) Labs instruments. It was fun, and it convinced me to give them a try. They sound nice, but I found the player a bit limiting. And yeah, I've got a few orchestral (and other) Kontakt libraries already; I've gotten used to Kontakt, so I tend to stick with those.

I remember there being some talk/commotion around paid-for Pianobook libraries. Is that notion still alive? As for LABS, I personally find the Spitfire player a bit difficult to get on with so never used them much. The install process seemed a bit flaky too. That said, I think it's a great resource for free instruments though.

Don't forget that some Waldorf plugins are available at the APD Shop. They're full-priced, but you can use virtual/reward cash you've earned to bring them down to their base price, which can be lower than 50%.

From the title, I thought you were visiting France ? Have a great time, Larry!

Maybe she's standing on a grounded metal plate?

Because you support the developer in doing so, so that they can continue to stay in business and continue building it and other products.

It's very likely AI - the controller looks very wrong. The pink and orange pads don't look to be a uniform shape, and there's next to no space between the light blue pads on the left. The rotary controls look oddly positioned. The keyboard has four consecutive black keys. And the player only has three fingers (and a thumb) on their left hand.

If you have it, don't forget about dearVR MONITOR (which was once available through Plugin Alliance). In any case, let us know how you think they all compare please.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, couldn't you do this with the Arranger Track/Scratch Pad in Studio One?

Cool - I always wanted to try this one but didn't know if I'd like it. Thanks for the heads-up.

I made a purchase from them and received an email with a download link. It says it can be used up to 5 times before it expires. Does anyone know - does it mean I (only) have 5 chances to download my libraries? or can I access them as many times as I like (within reason) from my account once logged in?

Not sure it works like that: I believe the 2023 bundle only included the plugins released in 2023. The 2022 bundle was different as it was the first of its kind. A fair statement.

That's a good deal; not all of us were eligible for that though (or at least I wasn't). There's also no telling if they'll do a 'total' bundle next year, or what it'll cost if they do.

I get that many here are generally against subscriptions (me included), but the current deal for Mega XXL is quite good. What puts me off a subscription is the idea that if I stop paying, I lose access to my past project. However, you get plugin vouchers with the Mega bundles; that makes it more like paying for a set of plugins to keep while getting full access to their catalogue. For reference, F29 (no longer available) costs $30 per plugin: $29 for the sub, $1 for the plugin. In comparison, Mega XXL yearly is currently $249.99 for 10 vouchers - $24.99 per plugin - while having a year's access to everything.
