ContainersChildExcludeList? I've been waiting for that one....

Which they now have in the last 10 minutes since I checked. $41.16 with the Group code.

Cool. A lot of people thought this may happen on 909 day. Glad Roland is becoming more realistic about the lifetime key costs. I've picked up four of them now, and will pick up this one if JRRShop lists it.

The best software FM synth out there.

I did buy them. This is how it shows up.

Dang, and I had held out so well.

I agree with standing alone.

It does for me. @IK Multimedia - any insight on why those products were discontinued? They really weren't that old.

Perfect! I was waiting on a good freebie to upgrade to Scaler 3. The last several months haven't been great for freebies.

Musio One is on sale frequently for $99 or $149, so if you can ever swing it, its highly recommended.

Oh man, why did I not think about that yesterday. THAT would have been the best suggestion - relative price range, great samples, and you can pick and choose by articulation what to download, so you can manage space. Sorry @fjz - I should have suggested this yesterday.

If you want to go with the 8Dio, spend the extra $25 and get this: https://8dio.com/products/epic-ensemble-bundle?variant=52185183256942 You get three of their choirs, and some extras.

Another good option (though it is much more than 80 GB) is the EastWest Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition (which is the standard orchestra, not the Fantasy Orchestra that Larry mentioned). You can get it direct from EastWest right now for $224 (with the code LaborDay). That is a great deal - a ton of content for not that much.

I'm not really a fan of Majestica. It has its place, but it is loud, bombastic, and generally noisy. 8 Dio is.....well, 8 Dio. And I have a lot of their libraries. Do you have any orchestral libraries at all yet? If not, I would suggest starting with Spitfire's BBCO Discover. Its actually really good, and provides a good start in that ecosystem - its upgradable to Core, then Pro. Oh, and its free.
