I did, but forgetting a .bin and an .exe. file in an installation package is still bush league. There is no way that should happen - that isn't a "bug" - it is just carelessness and not checking.

Wow. That's bush league....

I'll definitely pick something up, and I was looking for newer libraries as well. Though I'm an IT guy by trade, I don't do AI, ChatGPT, Co-Pilot, etc. that much. However, ChatGPT is pretty good at doing deep dive web searches. I asked it for its best guess on a complete list of libraries, and this is what is gave me.

Can pick up some great deals that way for $54!

Wait, what?

Good on you. IK gets quite a bit of guff online (here included (and by me), on occasion), but the products themselves are really good IMHO. Good on you for standing up and supporting a dev. (I bought it too. )

I bit. I just had to have that D-50. Love those sounds.

'Spensive....

Nice. RIP Computer Music Magazine....

I agree. Sadly, so many of those magazine are just gone now. I read actual books as well, never Kindle. Now get off my lawn.

Steinberg has there summer instrument sale going on now. Though it doesn't get as much "pub" of Komplete or Total Studio, Absolute really has some gems in there. On sale now for $249. I'm a big fan of Halion. Steinberg releases quite a few instruments and expansions for Halion, but they really don't seem to push them that much. I've always felt they really need to do something like Komplete - combining Halion with all available instrument sets would make a really strong product. https://www.steinberg.net/promotion/instruments/ Also on sale is is there Iconica Series (also really good, but not as popular as the other orchestral sets out there).

Nothing on this latest update though.

An update showed up for XO today. As usual, no release notes from XLN.

I think you should get 93% off if you can correctly pronouce "Ueberschall"

I need one of those.

I don't think anyone has ever found a reason to spend them.

Installed!

Oh man, I had forgotten about that. That was funny.

@Fleer says "Dealio, and its pretty pretty good"

Man, I have almost purchased something from Roland Cloud about 100 times. I keep vascillating between the TR-808 and the D-50. I keep holding strong, but man, at $41.16, I'm going to have to bite I think.
