I agree. you dont need it. but i gotta check this UAD promos. I dont see where they get $74 from.

Why you do that? You make suspense and trouble for me.

wow. $99 for me. i got a few modulations and the freebies. this is tasty. Do I want this ?

my bets are upgrade price will be $299

I just got the free ones. Tape echo, compessor and Verve essentials.

its basically their attempt to sweeten the deal to get you to upgrade Komplete. Problem is, two of the things I would be interested in, aren't in Komplete yet. So there goes that.

noting here. but to be honest, not too impressed with UAD. the authentication constantly running on system is a little annoying. is anyone aware of anything special that UAD have that others don't make?

i just know of MX expansions that are usually maybe cheap

tempting. but wish i was able to use it for partner bundles. darn.. https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/bundles/komplete-14-ultimate/included-products/

there is/or was a page on the IK site where you can login and check for which products you qualify for an upgrade or cross grade. I can't recall now.

wasnt this given away free at some point?

yeah. no group buys for a while? unless I missed one recently. i have most of the IKM guitar stuff through group buys and specials. now just missing ToneX Mesa, TX ODS Legends, and AT5 Morley. What sucks about being in the ecosystem through the group buys is now i have sort of a few random missing items in AT5 and it makes no sense for me to spend $50 to get them as I have almost 99% of what in the collection. So I have to always be aware that I don't have particular model when tweaking sounds. It would be good if IKM offered free credits for users that participate in ToneNet. That way we could maybe fill out and complete the software collection. @Peter - IK Multimedia

I think the softies did something to improve performance. I have noticed that AmpRoom starts up much faster as of the last update. I don't know if they did something to fix it trying to contact their services when first launched. It used to be the first launch was very slow. And then subsequent plugin inserts were much faster.

yeah. now i see it. i was hoping to piggy back on the free midi pack + coupon. oh well.

Really? I will try again.

If I could only use my old EZK coupon, i would maybe bite.

good freebie.

this is interesting. so it the new uJam price $19 new or they are just re-jigging pricing strategy?

you know what. i dont like you. you make me spend too much money.

never herd of them. but they have a free bass. https://www.martinic.com/en/products/kee-bass

not a bad deal? is this any good?

i managed to pickup a real 31 band graphic eq from work. (they were throwing away the old PA system). let me tell you. its a real pain in the ***** to try to use compared to a plugin. you need to find a rack for it. you need find a power outlet for it, you need to find a cables for it. you need to figure out how and where to patch it in the signal chain. it's been sitting on a shelf waiting for me to find free time to tinker with it. too busy working on songs ITB in a DAW. btw.. i agree about the most people dont care and listen on buds and phone speaker. but it also depends if you have defined your audience or figured out who you are targeting. maybe you are going for a niche market and they are people who do have stereos and a decent listening system -- the SH forums folks who buy back catalog remastered stuff. In which case, you don't want to release something which will sound like crap on their systems.

conceptually, they do the same thing. but which one is used really depends. its sort of like a drawing pen and sizes. which point size you need? hence a 10 or 20 band transparent graphic eq vs a pultec. What the fellow is claiming is, you are being fooled by the GUI or the company logo. Well, there is lots of free eq's. And you can compare it to your paid ones and see if they do same thing really. https://www.voxengo.com/product/overtonegeq/ https://www.voxengo.com/product/marvelgeq/ https://www.voxengo.com/product/teq421/

I dont know about a guy who thinks fab filer eq is same as a neve emulation eq. something not right with him.

good price for it. anyone have opinion on on the new synth wave thing?
