  1. The "add coupon" option only appears in certain countries. You might have to use VPN to see it.
  2. I think it sounds great out of the box. I didn't have this expectation vs. reality effect that I had with some other plugins, like orchestral VSTi where my own results sound nothing like the demo. It's quite easy to use. Draw or import MIDI notes and write the lyrics. Or even easier, record yourself singing and let Synthesizer V convert it to synthetic voice.
  3. Oh, Larry was quicker again. I searched for it beforehand on this forum but didn't find it. Must've misspelled it or something.
  4. Strange, how did I miss that? I check their website regularly. Are you sure it was that one? Google search for "amapiano pigments free site:audioplugin.deals" gives zero results.
  5. Arturia have added another free soundbank. I have no idea when, I just happened to think "Let's see if there's a new freebie", so I had a look, and there it is, Amapiano Essentials for Pigments with 32 presets: https://www.arturia.com/sounds?slug=amapiano_essentials
  6. Finally a Waves freebie that I didn't have yet. ?
  7. That's an awkward sale. Aren't they worried that they might lose some Turkish customers?
  8. Or get the complete Serum Bundle for $99.95 with code SUMMER01. I believe that would be even cheaper per pack. The bundles have 3 packs each, I think, the Serum Bundle has 35 packs.
  9. HALion must be one hell of a beast. Because I've got this colleague who basically only has HALion. And he's totally unaffected by GAS. He says he's got all that he needs with HALion. I'm so impressed. What kind of software manages to defeat GAS? How is that possible? Or does my colleague just have super powers?
  10. https://synthctrl.com/ Yes, you read that right. Not "Buy 3 get 1 free" but "Buy 1 get 3 free". Just enter the coupon code "JULY" at the checkout. Somehow it's not mentioned on the website yet. I got the information via newsletter. The soundbanks usually have between 120 and 140 presets. Each soundbank is tailored to a specific music genre. Check the demos. I think they sound quite nice.
  11. Maybe you're on this page? https://www.ujam.com/special-offers/ That page has nothing but discounts, of course. But on the store page https://www.ujam.com/store I see mostly regular prices.
  12. I don't see all their products on sale. Only a few. And the coupon doesn't work with the ones that already are on sale. Because, as they said, "Current promotions are excluded"
  13. Oops, sorry, how could I forget the link? ? Thanks for adding it.
  14. Cymatics are known for giving a lot of their stuff for free every now and then. Right now you can get 50 of them for free. If you've been following their freebies in the past you might already have a lot of them. There's a catch though: You have to install their "Cymatics Hub", which is a download manager. I have no idea why. Update: As mentioned by @MusicMan installing the Cymatics Hub isn't mandatory.
  15. are you sure about that? I believe it's just a regular VST.
  16. Waldorf Edition 2 LE is free with any purchase at ADSR Sounds. The regular price is 19,90€ or 21$. It contains three plugins: Attack (Percussion Synthesizer), PPG 2.2V (emulation of the 80s synth PPG Wave) and 2-Pole (Filter-Plugin). The LE version has some restrictions over the full version. More information on the official Waldorf Site.
  17. The new issue of Beat Magazine is already available in German for subscribers on plugins-samples.com. English issue following soon. This month's freebie is Efektor Modulation by Kuassa, Beat edition. I don't know Kuassa Efektor Modulation, never heard of it, and don't know what's the difference to the Beat edition. Beat Magazine's plugin description (translated from German with deepl.com): And, of course, there's a new Zampler soundbank again. "Harmony of Realms", with 81 ethereal voices, elven harps and droids.
  18. So true. That's why for testing presets I've made an Ableton Live template with a bunch of MIDI clips that have no overlapping notes, some MIDI clips with overlapping notes, some with low notes, some with high notes, MIDI clips with melodies, MIDI clips with chord progressions, with chord stabs, fast melodies, slow melodies, etc. When I just play some random notes on my MIDI controller, a preset might sound awful. But play the right clip, bam, best preset ever. I also remember how surprised I was when I first realized how much difference the arrangement/layering/context makes. I had this template from F9 Audio and listened to some tracks in solo. Without the layering of synths and without all the other stuff going on at the same time, some synth sounded so different, I wouldn't have guessed that it could sound like it does in the full arrangement.
  19. I don't have Chromaphone, so I have no opinion of my own, but I've often seen it being listed as one of the best. It's mentioned as one of the top 10 or so soft synths in online articles by Sonic Academy, Music Radar, Unison and many more. So, without having tested it myself, in my brain it's saved under "Top tier soft synths". I can imagine that the session plugins give AAS a bad reputation. Not because they sound bad, but because they look cheap and are being sold cheap, so that makes the company behind it appear cheap, in a negative way. Some of the very first plug-ins I ever bought were exactly this session bundle, also from HumbleBundle, in 2021. Being new to music production and not knowing anything about which companies are good, this instantly made me think of AAS as a low-budget company. Three years and some experience later I had to unlearn this association. And even those session plugins sound really good to me. Like when I need an acoustic guitar, Strum Session often turns out to be the one that sounds just right to me, despite having more expensive alternatives.
  20. Not under the system requirements for the MIDI packs though: https://ugritone.com/products/almighty-midi-pack-midi-collection
  21. How can MIDI files be incompatible with a DAW?! ?
  22. So sad to see a good business give up. Their emotional farewell words break my heart. How they struggled and burned out. ? ?? I bought their "Almighty MIDI Pack: 2017-2023 MIDI Collection" in March, where it was also available for $29, along with "Riot Drums 2" for €1.50. I haven't really used them much yet but tested them and the MIDI files are the first thing I'd pull up if I wanted to created a metal track. I like their Ugritone Drums plugin too and the Riot Drums 2 drum pack. They're great value for the money.
  23. Yes, but it's still fun to try. The way I see it: Making music yourself is like playing a game, letting AI create music for you is like watching a game. And I find it fascinating, just to see and experience what's technologically possible these days.
