I get tired of these players where you have little control of distribution.

See Soundpaint, 8dio, EastWest

I'm less of a fan of apps that don't allow you more control of distribution. This is the problem with most romplers. At least with Sampletank, Kontakt, I can archive the downloads which is handy for multiple machines. I'm not fond of the bloatness in Soundpaint. Angels is under 2gb for Kontakt.

Hard to fathom that the Commodore 64 is 63gb for the full blown version. There are some that are gaga over this. I would think these could be duplicated on any softsynth.

Yes. I like their midi packs. As for software it usually doesn't have any documentation.

I should be called the "meh" sale.

My only concern about Soundpaint is how big these libraries can be. That seems to be an 8dio trademark. Too many sample developers are into bloat that makes game developers jealous. I'm still amazed how Spitfire made that 300mb BBC sound great. It's not the libraries that are so expensive as much as buying the drive space to host them.

Some are probably not aware how terrible VSL's license replacement policy was. They started selling dongle insurance. Hopefully that will change. If VSL every goes to a 2 machine limit I'll be a big fan.

Same here. I read the reviews but the free stuff doesn't really do much for me since I have so much stuff. I do archive the downloads.

I'm betting Yamaha is doing away with eLicenser.

How many computers can I use with a new license? You are allowed to install our products on multiple computers, but you can only activate a product on two computers at any one time.

That was......annoying.

So I did a stupid thing today.........y'all know what that is....

Paypal credit is worse.

At the same time developers will find way to bring these systems to a crawl. Someone will eventually get one of these and forget the word "server". People have done that with Intel server processors.

The difference is you can finance them from Sweetwater.

Can't even download the products from the webpage. I'm sure they'll fix it.

Same here. It's a server problem.

I'm still waiting to hear that from people listening to music on their phones with their wireless ear buds.

I find the whole modular thing overrated for me. I have Reason and some DAWs like FL Studio create a modular atmosphere.

Fixed it for ya!

I know everyone is wowed by the price buy eventually you are painting yourself into the WUP corner. There's not a lot of long term thinking here.

They will increase the price to offset

Ignore this if you are into hoarding affordable synths,

Yes and FL Studio has plenty and once you are in the front door you don't have to pay for them. Reason is the worst at fixing their DAW while I bet them cranking out their instruments is a 4 to 1 ratio,
