Using their own player - no increasing costs of a developed library. The rise of hobbyists means more sales. At the turn of the century many libraries were 4 figures and fewer samplers. If you could download them today they seem quite primitive.

That's actually decent coffee. I have ground, whole bean, and K-Cups. As for store brands Kroger is terrible. Safeway/Albertson's Signature Select is very good. I drink coffee straight. We have a store in my area where they sell expired items. I've gotten Starbucks and Pete's whole bean for under $5. My favorite coffee that is hard to get was Kenya AA. With the price of food these days I don't do elite coffee.

Like making a clusterfrack out of their installation? Being like NI now brings a sense of fear. BTW I like Musio. If they want to be like NI they should have a much cleaner file system look at the folders of the Musio library.

He is most likely using a virtual drive. If we download Bandlab it is only the update an not the full installer.

I wonder if the same thing exists for mounting SSDs. I'd so love that.

This is starting to turn me off to where using DAW software is a chore. I don't mind it for gaming.

Do I need this if I have Ozone? I don't need another proprietary installer.

RX 10 Standard is $99 at Izotope.

Reminds me of the NI never used vouchers. Hmmmm now we know where that came from.

I don't if anything has changed with nvme but you loose a SATA port for each one unless that has changed. I'm not a fan of putting all of my eggs in one basket with storage. I prefer more 2TB SSD drives than say a large 8TB. I still install SATAs because it's easier. But when you have 3 systems adding SSDs gets expensive, Since I got the Musio deal I bought a portable nvme just for it. There are docks that once you pay for them do you have any money left for drives? I speak from a budget perspective. I have all of my SATA ports used up. I still keep HDDs and a DVD drive. It's nice to put Komplete or IK Total Studio on a SSD drive but you have to assess what are you going to use from them? I start to think of drive management much differently these days. nvme are quite fast but my life isn't dependent on it and a SATA SSD works for me as internal drives. As for portable I'll go with nvme.

I'll go with Jim's theory as a tax write off. As for Pro Tools if you wanna work with the big boys you better know how to use it, They are the industry standard and if they ever consider the make believe world of Linux they and Steinberg will set the stage. I can't overlook the "lets try to make a Linux version and let's see how far we can put people into a sub. Developing for 3 platforms will only create **** development and let's not forget the endless Linux distros. Read Jim's post over and over again.

As Jim said maybe they need a tax write off. Let me know when Pro Tools goes this direction. The issue is hardware support. I best Presonus who no seems to come up with recent stupid ideas probably has one person working on it part time and probably a relative of someone higher up.

This should be a sticky for Stop Whining About Importing to Linux. Like every larger DAW developer has said it's not worth the investment.

I tried that Linux train enough to finally realize that Lucy is never going to hold that football for Charlie Brown. If one wants a Linux DAW buy the Ableton Push standalone for $3K. Linux does exist in the DAW world.

the sub pandemic is live and well

I never get those notifications either from my email registered in 8dio. I do get them in my other 2 accounts. The file size for something called alien drum is a bit ridiculous. If you used it in a mix I guess you would have to mention, "check out the alien drum in this. Doesn't it sound great?"

File size turns me off to anything Soundpaint.

more like never I like what Jim says about Linux

There's always something out there to replace them. It's always a risk. People can still run Gigastudio (GVI) to some extent and the Yellow Tools libraries are under Magix but users move on.

Just think how many of them will be half-assed with no link or using acronyms.

BTW most of you should already have this if you have the latest release of Komplete.

Someone bought Music who have Kontakt because they didn't want the whole Cine Percussion on their drive. I guess the a la cart works.

Do we really know for sure?

That's the one they f'update the most.

Give MS some time and it wont. Look how they screwed up start menus.
