suprised roland and tascam are so low. i am a focusrite user. also have interface by NI built into maschine and IKM built into a controller but i rarely use them.

I use T racks all the time. I also think v6 is coming. Really hope they give LMC some love and attention

based on my experience. upgrade prices are neither here not there. if you spend money on a product and you use it -- its money well spent. i feel bad to admin, but there are quite a few really good and expensive products i bought that i hardly ever use. the IKM products i use weekly if not daily. are they better or are the other competing products better? hard to say -- but what matter most is which product you wind up using most often and which one fits your workflow and personal taste.

that LM2 - Stereo Loudness Meter was always something i had my eye on. it looked like a cool useful tool.

I have all except chirelli and farmhouse.

yeah. its pretty nice. except for the fact that i already have same type of effects and instruments from other companies. probably multiples of them.

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.
