This thread should be in the coffee house. I could break the net about how stupid tech is in every industry. I pretty much despise most developers. That attitude is mostly outside the DAW world. Browsers basically suck in the desktop environment. If all of these ideas are to reduce piracy I think it encourages it.

Maybe the board is going bad or a heat issue

Free to be a slave to Native Access = easy pass.

This is not really a deal since it requires a sub

I never update NI libraries. Easy to miss the fine print and having to download to use in Kontakt 6. I still like it better then 7 or 8.

How we forget that is how people listen to music or the speaker on their phones. I'm find more joy in playing real instruments since you don't have to boot them up, wait for the plugin scan, ect. I have an old Meinl Weston convertible marching tuba next to me. I put the mouthpiece in, maybe add some valve oil and done. Same with all of the other instruments laying out. No clicking, scrolling. The only thing I can't stand about headphone is those covers. Annoying to replace, or mess with alternatives.

I can't really apply that to VIs. It's just sounds moving on a drive. A Bach 1C,3D, 6C, feel different when playing a trumpet. No sample library will ever reveal that. It is the same with many pianos, guitars, any real instrument. So the feel in not in the instrument but the means of carrying them when it comes to VIs.. To some my philosophy would be considered blasphemy.

I don't get the appeal of large pianos that are larger than a handful of Linux distros. Sure they sound good but outside the DAW world a listener doesn't care.

This is not an Izotope everything bundle but a mixture of plugins from the 3 headed monster. It's an easy pass. Licensing is not consistent either. When they got those Expo verbs the licensing is different.. You can install Izotope on every machine you have while those verbs require iLok and I think they are single seat.

I get the dumping of Syntronik. I never cared for any Sampletron library for other romplers but IK version is so far above the rest. I guess the nest frontier for ST is encourage users to create their own stuff and lessons how to. Then again maybe they realize the rompler thing is a saturated market and not spend resources on it. or do Modo stuff which is more modeling. I love the Modo Bass. It doesn't dent a drive either

it's not like it will be a missed opportunity - they come back

That's why I prefer the option account direct downloads instead of an app. I'm only allowed 1.5tb a month without getting charged extra, Downloading EW HO triggered my ISP of reaching a limit. That also happened a few years ago with TS Max by downloading on 3 systems instead of downloading from my account.

I have hopes after they test the waters they offer a non sub option. Acronis tried this but now they also offer non sub. Most sub prices on anything I rarely agree with and they do go up. I find it annoying people justify a price comparing it to food items on just about everything. Most of those are "luxury" items and I can do without. I can also do without certain DAWs since I seem to collect those like plugins. I stopped using Sonar heavily after 4 but still bought licenses because of their licensing. If that happens again I will buy the newest Sonar.

I think users are overwhelmed with choices. These sales never make sense but how many of them do these days. I'm happy that they haven't ditched Kontakt all together.

I wasn't impressed as much with the latest Komplete Ultimate. Some of it was loops put in Kontakt. The best part was upgrading to Kontakt 8 since I couldn't stand 7. I don't think I've ever really dived into Komplete other than the installation. It's that habit of always using 3rd party.
