Larry - I think your error message looks like an authentication error from projectsam > amazon when I click the link it bounces me to amazon with a specific UID/authcode - if I remove the UID I get a similar error. log out and back in again ...and then I'm outta ideas !

worked for me (windows/chrome) - maybe worth trying again ?

the 'original' non-functioning one was also v1.03 - I've still got the download files from the first version.....the new one is identical. Must have been something on the back end - the spitfire logs said "file not found" or something all's well that ends well

windows still saying 3.0.39

I thought the repair was actually a re-download ? I'd already tried the repair on music box and it hadn't fixed and that's when I contacted support (Edit) redownloaded it and it is indeed fixed - quick work from Spitfire

https://www.spitfireaudio.com/labs/ just released a new instrument beware - there's a problem with the windows 10 version. If you download it then it will stop LABS working (error 1). If you've already downloaded then delete the 3 music box folders from your LABS installation, at least then the other instruments will function again. Spitfire support suggested that they 'should' have a fix tomorrow

thanks TS - the anthology release notes seem to indicate only a few actual changes: https://www.eventideaudio.com/support/downloads/anthology-xi-installer-windows

I 'think' that at the moment it's just the one product from what I can tell - so you are getting the suite for $99, currently 199 on the website. The release notes say: - New version dedicated to mix : ST mix - beta - New version dedicated to sampler : ST sampler - beta - New version dedicated to control : ST control - beta The documentation is a bit poor - badly translated from french I suspect. I've found with some of those research type plugins (ircam /sparta etc) that you sometimes have to get a bit more hands on than I normally like. Also it's not totally clear to me if you need to buy Ambi Head as well to get the binaural stuff working I probably don't have the time or inclination to make this an impulse purchase......... but it did look fun

I'm not totally clear what the $99 gets you - there seems to be 3 different version on the website https://www.tripinlab.com/

imperial delay and mongoose have offers on too - https://www.bozdigitallabs.com/product/mongoose/ https://www.bozdigitallabs.com/product/imperial-delay/

beware - this requires you do install yet another random downloader installer, it's not a direct download

Does seem a little odd - I enter activation codes on the dongle too and they reflect in my account ok. if you look at the dongle details in your account can you see the licences there ? I would have thought it's good to have your account up to date as i think SB refer to this if you ever need a replacement dongle (happened to me once)

I'm fairly sure my online account shows everything ?

a bit of discussion here:

SB promised an update to support ARA2 this May, so less than 2 weeks to go. https://www.synchroarts.com/AppSupport/RevoiceProV4.1/Manual/Newtopic49.html

I don't think anything has changed from what Matthew wrote. That's just the location that Kontakt defaults to when it can't find the location that's coded into the instruments. If you move to c:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\Albion ONE\Data it should work as intended plus you can have separate libraries for each spitfire product, although that's not necessarily a good thing Either way if it's working now then sometimes best just to walk away ?

ahhh, was hoping it was something built into Kontakt - but thank you anyway. I think the issue is that the Spitfire download thing isn't actually a proper installer. It just unzips the files into the directory that it has downloaded to and has no coding to allow it to move files around.

for sake of completeness for Solo Strings it's: Spitfire Solo Strings\Data solo strings doesn't come with any presets but I copied them from Albion one found this by trial and error - Matthew how do you find the file access log in kontact ? thanks

thanks - used the 70% code too on Autumn Choirs, I already had mountain from an old VSTbuzz deal.

^^^ but larry posted a 30% off code for Halion further up this thread

I used mine on the new mastering bundle (larry posted a link earlier) - I thought that was better value for money. The VSM-3 is very good indeed

normally yes - PA let you stack

I'd say go for it - bear in mind that ARA isn't here yet and has been delayed once already.....and will probably be full of bugs when it does appear (although I'm sure you knew that !) Also there's never been a cheaper way to get Nuendo if you need the extra post features, or simply like extended surround sound formats. SB are claiming that cubase/nuendo will be more or less in feature sync from now on. Previously there was a loooonnng delay for Nuendo to get the latest Cubase features.

already done and thanks again Larry - and to answer my own question from previously, the samples are different. You can tell at low velocities but at higher velocities the difference is very subtle

anybody tried this yet ? I'm just having a play but I'm noticing some odd things eg - select brushes/mallets for the yamaha toms in OP1 and you still get sticks part presets for mallets/brushes in OP1 also have no toms, implying that those articulations don't exist.
