In the previous group buys the IKM support was always kind enough to make people through the GB even if there was a lag in shipping, as long as your receipt says that your purchase was within the GB timeframe you should be fine. Yeah I got it by reading the thread it's all about the competition vs kvr. Hilarious!

Me... eventually.

I think they might be actually making music in their studios.

What the heck! I'm always keeping up to date with this thread. Suddenly I saw there are 2 new *pages* (!) waiting so I've done one quickly and now there are 3 more waiting ?. While doing the readout of the last page I can see there are new posts coming as I read, LOL So I finished the thread, got back to the main deals forum page and, believe or not, a fresh new posts unread ?‍♂️ Just wondering what is going on here, did IKM double-up the free products count per entry by a chance...?

Ah shame I've used my voucher already.

Great, now we only need to wait for a sale... how many years I wonder if ever? I just bought Scarbee funk guitarist for about $25 on kvr so I'm good for some time. This one sounds not bad though.

For sure, was posted last minute! I saw 24H and got back to what I was doing at that time... lucky you who jumped on it right away. I'll stick with my 2 copies

Sounds like a ground loop. If you're using a laptop try to disconnect the charger for a moment and see if the buzzing disappear.

Put it in the cart and go to checkout to see if they are willing to sell it to you based on your location. At the checkout I'd been greeted with a pup-up saying that they will only sell me physical goods starting with a price of €170 and up so that was it for me. Edit: lucky you!

I'm not particularly interested in these headphones, I have SHP9500's already and they are great for what I've paid. I even see they had been on offer there as well: https://drop.com/buy/philips-shp9500-headphones But I might be interested in some other gear there so I'll keep an eye on the offers. Thanks.

Does it make sense for europeans?

Guys what is this drop.com, an online outlet? First time seeing it with my eyes.

I mean you could enter at $99 with something that doesn't show any crossgrade price later, like TR5 Space Delay or an AT collection, and save $100. What you say makes sense if you wanted to join the GB with just a single entry at the $199 level directly, though. ARC w/hardware is giving him $249.99... might be worth considering as he'll get the mic for $50 extra and complete the s/w with dedicated h/w.

Same here. TTS-1 is invaluable for dirty quick sketches. It is a little buggy though so I avoid using it in final projects.

@kevin H loooooooool that was brilliant ? I'm already downloading and upgrading more than making music today. Starting with the dreaded Windows 10. I see glitches... everywhere glitches...

FYI ARC3 Software is $99.99 crossgrade price if you have already purchased anything at that price previously.

And I remember days of NI B4. My friend, who was a young programmer, being astonished with efficiency of the code (early 2000' Pentium MMX 133MHz processor didn't even notice the thing and that thing did sound real good for the times). Taking a quick look at IKM products of nowadays and gotta say, after updating Lurssen to the latest version, cpu load jumping almost twice as high as before renders the plugin unusable in even most basic mixing scenario. IKM soft do sound really good but they program it as if it's being intended for computers that will be available for buying in the next decades which of course is missing the point.

Which one is the setting exactly in Play, is there anything related on the tabs? I see one in the menu on the left that's always checked when I load a new instrument and never get saved i.e. I turn it off but the next time I will load the instrument it will go back on.

I started loving their walkthrough videos since some random time

Didn't play with it for years now but I used to use the groove quantize with audiosnap transient markers with good results. I had the bass and drum tracks to be groove-matched so I simply extracted groove from one or more tracks that I liked and quantized other tracks with it. Need to be careful while doing it though.

Think I've found a way out. Since I cannot buy, for whatever the reasons are, the ARC3 directly from IK store and use jampoints to further sweeten the deal, I figured out that I can buy just the MEMS mic from a local retailer or even get away with something like that for half the MEMS price: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Behringer-ECM8000-Ultra-Linear-Measurement-Microphone/dp/B000HT4RSA/?th=1 and still get good results, and then just get the ARC3 software as a freebie as some of you suggested earlier. I'm already in the group buy with a €99 tier so I get the feeling like the ARC3 software is right now wandering quietly into my account.

Only now I've noticed that the monthly PA voucher cancelled the previous one effectively bringing the price down from 39,99 to 14,99.

Already got blessed with one and could be used successfully on this offer. Huge thanks for a lovely philanthropist! What an awesome forum.

Does it mean that the software and MEMS in the same box are matched? Or you mean it's global and I should just shut up and go buy any MEMS mic out there?

Anyone having no use for his/her $25 PA voucher?
