I know that there are third-party libraries, but still WAY less than for Kontakt, no?

I don't know much about Falcon but if I understand it correctly it's like Kontakt but there are hardly any third-party libraries, is that correct?

Thank you ? I love free. Free is my friend. I wonder if I'm the only one who never managed to find someone who wants his 15$ voucher for first time customers.

Never mind Just me posting first and searching later ?

Good luck and have fun ?

Maybe, but the Martinic AX73 that they sell at VST Buzz isn't the original plugin but just a Kontakt library with a measly selection of 32 presets sampled from the VST. The original VST offers 1,000 presets. And the original is an actual soft synth. This is basically just a rompler, larger size, less possibilities in sound design, way less presets. Hard pass.

And it's alway this one guy on YouTube telling us how the plugins are the greatest:

They might have used Session Horns Pro though.

I would have thought that Session Horns from Native Instruments is exactly that, but you say you've already got the ones included in Komplete, so I guess it didn't match your idea of Reggae type of horns. Their first demo track uses it in a dancehall song, which is kinda reggaeish. Sounds great to me. Maybe give it another try?

Thank you, that's an important piece of information. I also bought reMIDI 2 at APD in September , using up all my APD coins to bring it down to base price. You can get it for the same price at Plugin Boutique every now and then but I didn't want to wait. I have the impression that it's a little buggy but maybe it's just me doing it wrong. @Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann did you have any problems with reMIDI 2?

Me too. That's the price that they offered me for the FX Collection 3 last Black Friday. And next Black Friday is coming soon.

It also increases your JamPoints. I believe I had 17 before. Now I have 32.

I'm in love with this interface ?

Some deals that might be worth checking out, in my opinion: Proclethya Synth Bundle for $12.99 I've seen it for that price before but never lower. I bought it for the same price once. I think the synth isn't bad. 1 year Beat subscription for $24.99 (Probably just the PDF issues, but still, you get a lot of freebies with a Beat subscription) Maybe this one is interesting for @El Diablo : Black Octopus Live Instrument Sample Pack for $20, because it contains some sample packs that are well suited for western music.

You can't post this without the YouTube video!

Now I'm starting to think that I don't belong here ?

I like their interfaces

He's been a little more active on KVR lately though, made a new Synthmaster 3 thread in January, showing screenshots of the current progress, giving approximate release dates and all. He plans to release it between October and December. I don't think that he's been that specific about the planned release date before, or has he? I'm confident that it will really come out within the next few months.

You have me ravioling on the floor.

They've got around 900 deals or so. There might be some gems hidden in there.

What I don't understand is, why are there so many shops that fail at sorting by price? I mean, how difficult can that possibly be?

Any recommendations?
