I finally opened a ticket with NI because I was having horrendous issue with load times for both NA and Kontakt. They suggested the following which vastly improved things. I only ended up doing the first half (prior to ~~~~~) but now they load in around a minute instead of 5 to 10 minutes.

I suspected the pricing was a glitch (either that or they were allocated a limited number to sell at that price) and that all of these sales will sooner than later evaporate. Some of the voicings/patches are crap but I like a couple (like the steel string acoustic strumming) enough that I thought it was worth picking up and so I grabbed a copy after seeing Walter's post. @PavlovsCat raises some good points though I strongly disagree with at least couple of his choices. But as they say YMMV, what works for me may not work as well for you.

This video is more hands-on and a lot less talky than the previous one I posted.

Must have been one of those mispricing flash in the pan deals - price now $79 Shame, the demo videos sound decent.

I did not get one (another $25 coupon) for my $14 purchase of DBX 160... Let me know how UA responses.

Already spent my $25 voucher on the DBX160, so unless they do PA style coupon reactivation I'm sitting on the sidelines for this one.

All of pending* updates on my system already required Kontact 7.6 - so that not new for me. The only new change is Support for NKS2 navigation. *Noire, Stradivari Cello, Stradivari Violin

If I did I didn't think there was an issue...

I took a look at my GForce SM and remembered why I never use it. It's so incredibly meeeehhh. The GUI sucks, the presets suck, there's no easy way to audition the individual voices or presets that do exist. The final release feels like an Alpha that got pushed into final release because they didn't want to spend more money on development. If I knew what every component synth sounded like where I could approach things as a chef - this tune needs a dash of 30% Roma tomatoes / 70% Campari tomatoes, I'd be more impressed. Of course YMMV (but I doubt it).

The vocal samples sound familiar... anyone know the original source?

I was having issues with posting on the forum, but as of the last couple of days no issues with Edge or FireFox.

LOL I still that 2012 'relic' on my system. When I fire it up it requires re-activation - and IIRC it won't. Probably should delete it as I can't/don't use it. At one point I had a number of MiniMoog freebies but never used them so at some point I stopped moving them from computer to computer as I upgraded hardware. Nowadays I do have the newer Arturia version and couple of other substitutes but If I'm looking for a Minimoog type sound I usually just use my old LinPlug /Rob Papen Albino 3 - still love that plugin.

$149.99 with code...

<sigh> I really want this... but not at this price.

They must like you better... $149 for me.

This any better that the GForce String Machine?

Thermal rocks.

100% agree. I was referring to the MSF library, perhaps I should have been more clear. But it really wasn't a real complaint, I appreciate Melda's continued push to enhance existing products. Currently I don't have any of the MSF stuff installed due to disk space constraints, but at some point that will change.

Another good example is PSP Audio, when doing hardware emulations - for example with their PSP FETpressor Currently my favorite 1176 plugin.

Melda Complete - the gift that keeps on giving. Or if you're concerned about disk space - taking...

100% agree. It's sad that UA a company once known for its innovation in the audio field has shown such a lack of it when it comes to their software products.

It'll be ready when it's done, regardless of how much you want it now. In the meantime if there is a killer sale on an upgrade buy it and sit on it.
