They have a 30 day free trial, no credit card needed. I signed up to check it out. It uses Musio VST3, not Kontakt. Haven't had a chance to play with it enough yet to know if I like it or not.

Lol, As a US resident I cannot make a purchase on the Japanese site, it won't accept the order.

So is Musio offering the Cinesample libaries (including the Kontakt ones)? Or are these 'Musio' versions of Cinesample libaries? Edit: was looking at CineBrass Horns of the Deep and that's a Kontakt 5.8.1 library and included w / Musio package. Edit2: signed up for trial and Musio is using their own player/VST3, not Kontakt.

https://musio.com/pricing/ Edit: Intro price of $299 instead of $399, price good till Dec 31, 2023 You can sign up for a free 30 day trial (no credit card required) : https://portal.musio.com/

On the serious side though, no. I thought about it for a couple of minutes - it would add maybe 5 native plugins that I could live without and all the Apollo plugins provided I picked up an interface. But I don't have the interface and I'm not ready to go running down that rabbit hole, at least for a while. So I went and had brunch and when I came back the deal was gone. Was kind of like when I go to the store and see that fancy $400 bottle of scotch. Would it be nice to have it - yeah. Am I going to go into debt or turn my life upside down to get it - no. I give it a sigh & a wink and move on...

It's called shock. People experience it after horrific accidents or missing out on rare plugin deals. Loosen any tight clothing and, if needed, cover up with a blanket to prevent chilling. Don't eat or drink anything until you have seen professional help. Larry is qualified to administer CPR if necessary. We're here brother to talk you through it if you need to vent or just have a good cry. In the meantime just try to remember that tomorrow is another day and another deal will eventually come along. ...Steven

If you have cats in your neighborhood rinse it well...

Last year, same sale - I bought Falcon + 2 libraries and then got a $100 voucher. Don't know if pricing is same on items but maybe you can finagle things...

Surely sir, you jest.

Yeah I still have my Kore 2, it's sitting in my closet on the pile of honored dead hardware. ?

Who the hell does NI think they are - Apple? ?

^^ Yes, you can uninstall UA Connect and they will still run fine. I did that after I got the 1st synth, but as I started collecting them (UAD plugins) I just left it installed. At some point I may uninstall it again, depends on how often they update their plugins.

or it may have nothing to do with it... Labs currently has 62 instruments - that's a lot of time/money spent on a freebie. Could be that the cost of developing new freebies is no longer viewer as an effective use of capital or maybe they're running out of good ideas for new ones and don't want to start throwing crap into the pond. or they're just diverting talent into upcoming projects that'll generate $.

Around BF we should see the All Access Pass offered for between $90 - $100 if they remain true to past history.

20 hours ago, @Lionel said (from the older thread on this plugin): Drew [from UAD] also mentions: It’s the silver algo with the legacy GUI. We've removed the Mix control and fixed the Emphasis control in a sweet spot. So it's kind of an 'easy' version of the Silver and has a full preset list - slightly different presets from Silver (some but not others, and some unique presets).

Lol, speak of the devil and he shows up! We were just talking about this collection in another thread.

Not as easy as it sounds. The problem with shell plugins like Waves is that you need VST scanner (not a file browser) to access the plugin list of the contained plugins and that would take a lot of overhead (a scanner, a database of some kind to hold the data, maintenance options i.e. when to scan, etc.) and somewhere there'd be time lag penalty when it did the scan where a lot of users would think PatchWork was broken or buggy. So even though I have Wave's Mercury I don't blame BlueCat for not having a more elegant solution. If your Waves WUP is up to date on all your Waves plugins you can ignore all the older pre15 (or whatever version they're on right now) WaveShell versions and that will cut down what you'll need to check out.

Get this instead - it's FREE Kilohearts - Reverser Similar experience. I demo'd Mirror last time it was on sale and immediately deleted it from my system. If you're still interested do yourself a favor and try the demo: https://unitedplugins.com/Mirror

Very nice. But @ $3,500 - not in my budget. I think that's more than my car is worth...

I don't have the GEM version but I've heard it's CPU use is lower AND it has features (Mid/Side control, parallel compression, multilevel undo-redo, etc.) not in the UAD versions.

That's a good one. I've used it on a couple of projects.
