annoying isn't it - I just open a sandboxed windows install and download from there. FWIW it's 'meh' and a bit of CPU hog trying to play in realtime cubase/win10 EDIT - and there are some bugs - such as the mic channel output select doesn't work

I think Noire sounds much better - if I had to pick one it would be Noire.

once you open that door where will it end ? Before you know it you will just select a reduced and great working subset of all the plugins you own, which will streamline your workflow..... then really focus on making some great music instead of worrying about missing out stuff you don't really want and will never use. That sounds awful and goes against everything this forum stands for. Seriously, I quite like it but it's going to get used once, on one track, that I could have used another random VSTi on. It's sounds lovely but really not an 'essential' plugin IMO

it's ok - we've got larry also those prices aren't actually correct - they don't allow for the freely available voucher codes. Worth reading the thread before you post JRR - forum (or sometimes group) AD - depends but at the moment it's FALL22 it also get more complicated because I'm in the UK - so plugin boutique would show a price in UK £ which would also include local VAT (tax) - making it even more expensive TLDR: it's ok I'm with Larry

yes, they are doing one of the fusion range per week - we've already had/have vintage drive violet EQ HF compressor so just Transformer and Stereo Image to go ....although Stereo Image has been on sale at 34.99 previously

For me it was only 29 euro - and I like Arturia as a company - the products are good and upgrades a reasonable price. They tend to credit you with any extra purchases you've made when/if you upgrade a bundle so I'm happy to give them some money LOTS (most?) companies don't seem to do this (NI, I'm looking at you!)

it's fractionally more expensive at AudioDeluxe but you get AD bucks, which I think maybe double at the moment (well I got 1.57 this morning on this plugin which seemed more than normal?) - so it works out cheaper if you are collecting the set - plus they are doing a UVI piano giveaway if you care about that kinda thing.

Larry it's really great to see you back - not for the deals, that's just a bonus. It wasn't quite the same without you - and it's good to know you're ok. And don't worry, we're all feeling old nowadays

yes - although for some unknown reason I tend to do most stuff in cubase.

That doesn't seem to have the O9 update that was released a couple of days ago. another fail from izotope

I agree it's not the best software portal thing in the world (why does it insist on keeping on running in the background when you've tried to close it ?) but has always worked ok for me. Generally a bit klunky though. you can still download from: https://www.izotope.com/en/products/downloads.html I think....although you might need to be logged in ?

I suppose it's just because you get much more content and the price difference isn't always that much. Last time I went from K12 ultimate to K13 CE. That gave me quite a few extra bits that I wouldn't have got from K13 ultimate. The Cremona strings for example, which are excellent. You can do a compare on the various versions on the NI website. This time I don't see a huge amount that I want in K14 CE so I'm happy to wait for the upgrade price to be much more attractive.

or how buggy it is ?

I believe the only difference is in the browser - not in Kontakt itself ! are your 'requiring full kontakt' libraries timing out after 20 minutes ?

Kontakt 7 player is already available in Native Access - anyone tried it yet ?

You flagged that I'd given you a thumbs down. You didn't seem to understand why, so I spelt it out. Unlike you, I don't find AIDS particularly funny - and I really don't care if it's "just an expression", maybe if you are 12 years old it's 'cool' ? And you actually don't know why Larry "called it quits" as he had more respect for other people. Either way I'm not sure I find your crass contribution quite as valuable as his input. Rest assured I won't take it to heart. LOL

I don't care that you don't like the Beatles - I do care that you say classy

they claim this works with the free player but I can't see how it does without a serial number ?

Spitfire are getting a bit of a reputation (well they are here at least ) of releasing stuff that's quite buggy....and they aren't keen to provide updates/fixes. I've been bitten a few times on this. That wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so bloomin' expensive. Hence I'm sitting this one out.

did you try emailing support - they might be able to assist ?

nope - the standalone app is gone... officially (and unfortunately)

has anybody had the Ozone licence added to their account for those that bought the various upgrades with 'free' updates to V10 ? (nothing in my account yet)

I suspect it be cheaper at Audiodeluxe (for UK people) although it's not listed as yet.......I'm sure it won't be long.

despite my reservations about the quality of this particular update, Izotope have amazingly good support.

I did that last time - and the upgrade was 50% off in the summer sale (nearly 12 months after launch ) It was definitely worth it for me that time as I got lots of excellent new stuff.
