The Presonus Universal Control has been updated to v 3.6.1.84519 For those with a Presonus interface (a bloody busy morning of updates)

Having updated yesterday Bite,Choral, Dirt,Flair,Freak,Phasis, Raum, Replika to v 1.2.0. There was an issue with some as it asked for a repair on the 32bit. Today there is a update for all the above to v 1.2.1 that solves this (plus Komplete Kontrol 2.6.6 but this was mentioned earlier I think.) Run Native Access.

Same for me. D/loaded via the 8DIO d/loader and manually . And got the same results. Resources and sample folders. But no NKIs. Have emailed 8DIO

Here's a quote from Matt @NI on th NI forum "If you have Komplete 13 Ultimate, I'd say it's not really for you. You'll find a lot of stuff you already have." In an earlier post he mentioned 1 instrument a month or MassiveX expansions, or effect. I can see this slowly creeping along with little for Komplete owners . With them releasing stuff already available elsewhere (PB).

And that ain't no bull........

As a Komplete 13 user. This means nothing until they add stuff that means something. Currently it has no value and seems less than the bi-annual summer update.

Thanks Larry. Appreciated. I actually spent a few years writing background music for a small video company that did travel-vlogs about Crete and other Greek Islands. And used by the Greek tourist board. The percussion is half and half live loops I made (Using Sitala the free sampler) using my own samples, played in on my keyboard . About five variations with frame drums of various pitches and bass drums.Then made into midi clips, and pasted across the timeline. And free Kontakt loops with the Splash Sound free percussion elements 1. And some loops from the Middle East Kontakt instrument from NI. I always mix loops with live playing. It adds a degree of "oops that was human" to things.

Thanks Kevin. Very much appreciated.

Thank you Phonobrainer. Very kind words indeed. (ps: as a child I was always fascinated by ancient Greek history, and ended up marrying a Greek and have a child with an ancient name : Thalia the muse of song, poetry and theatre).

thanks jack c. ?

https://www.pianobook.co.uk/ is running its Advent Calendar. And here's a little thing to illustrate the Ideal Bouzouki by Fred Poirer (in the free Decent Sampler format). Includes other Pianobook instruments.

Ok. You need to check out the Pianobook community. Though a number are Kontakt full. A high number are in Decent Sampler format (free), such as https://www.pianobook.co.uk/packs/winter-voices/ From there, start diving in.

A very good deal indeed. I have everything anyway, But for anyone new to Kontakt, a bargain. Some libs are a bit samey. But some real crackers in there.

https://forum.vital.audio/t/december-2021-free-patch-sharing-thead/8491 November's patches are now available. As usual just place the file in your Vital Docs folder. And import from within Vital. Then you can delete the original file.

Love Soundethers stuff (Ambient, evolving,etc) all for Kontakt. 2 freebies at Loot Audio https://www.lootaudio.com/search-results Plus other freebie at his site (needs an email) https://soundethers.wixsite.com/soundethers/freebie-free-world I'm sure I have more freebies from him.

Pianobook Advent Calendar has started today. With a free instrument each day for the next 25 days. Starting today with the Notebook (great little video for it). https://www.pianobook.co.uk/

https://varietyofsound.wordpress.com/blog/ VoS has released the updated version of Tessla SE (64bit) analog saturation

Thanks Aidan. It's a fight between Mellow and the Jazz upright at Straight Ahead which is currently at the same price.

UJAM have their Mellow upright bass at 70 % off. https://www.ujam.com/bassist/mellow/ Anyone have this ? As I have a number of dble/bass vst but always want more (with a bit of character)

60% or maybe 50% off just over a month ago from Christian Henson for 24 hrs.

Has to be the Zero G Elements I got from you guys today with another 20% off as I have an Ethera. Plus the three extra banks of presets from Stefano. !! You guys are so lucky that the Spitfire "The Ton" was a bust this year !

Loot Audio are fine.. I've bought lots from them. However. They have just started showing prices without VAT. So add that on if UK/EU based

If you want an intimate string sound (but also capable of more). Then look at Ben Osterhouse - Sospiro Strings. It has individual NKI for full ensemble, individual NKI for Bass, Cello. Viola, Violin. Highly regarded (universally excellent reviews) and a crazy price (£31 at PB). And NI have approached him to work with them. So will be going places.
