It's just past 1000!

LOL. I had the original and the MC202 sequencer version back in the day. I used to sync the MC202 to a Fostex 4 track cassette and multitrack. I was complex but fun.

Installed (via the SonicPass sub) These are nice sounding effects with a bit of character and can see using them in ahead of the zillion other chorus / flange / delay options at my disposal in some cases.

Thanks for the response to my issue. I contacted Waves support who provided the solution. It appears Studio One VST scan was not picking up the update properly and resetting the VST settings and forcing a complete scan fixed the issue.

Has any one go Waves 15 working. They have scanned OK but wont load in both Studio One 6 and Bitwig. (I went to try in Cakewalk but I need to sort out the Bandlab account authorisation before I can do that,)

Flute Flight is the only one I don't have. I think I will wait a bit before I decide if I want it or not.

It would be worth checking out Amplesound too. I notice they have a MIDI guitar mode where each string has a different MIDI channel which I assume would be the best approach. Their Riffer strum sequencer feature uses the different MIDI channels to specify what string each note is played on.

Oh well, hopefully there will be improvements.

Well, I just WUPed ny Studio 4 licence while the WUP is half price. I have not really got the hang of Bitwig yet so I need to do a bit of studying. I do like the idea one can exchange project data with Studio One using DAWProject.

29 Euros for me. I have V collection X

I already had the synth and tape so I was on the fence but I found that and Wasted Space and the four modules in the A-Class can be used in Modular and that tipped the balance.

I have the sub version. It's working out well for me with the regular addition of more titles and updates to the software. They have just addressed my biggest annoyance with the ability to down load an entire library with one click while still retaining the individual articulations download for those pressed for disk space.

I wonder if they are considering supporting the DAWproject file format?

And that price is ex-VAT, that extra 20% has tipped the balance for me at the moment.

I have not seen this posted here before https://www.gforcesoftware.com/products/vsm-iv/ I hope there will be a free or cheap upgrade from V3

No brainer at that price IMHO. A superb emulation.

Uninstaled and rolled back to the previous version.

I see these are versions of earlier BFD kits made for the new player. I suspect this means player will never open old BFD kits, and IF there is a BFD4 it won't be backwards compatable.

Installed and I have had a quick look. While OB-E is a real beast but it takes a little while to get your head around the architecture, OB-EZ is a sort of pre-set player with basic controls, the sound is fantastic, I suspect we may see preset packs issued in the future. OB-EZ patches can be exported for further tweaking in OB-E (assuming you own it) if you want to be more adventurous. I am not sure is its possible to do it the other way around It certainly would be a big advantage if you could,

Just bought Alicia's Keys. Sounds good from breif initial auditions of the presets. I also got UAD's Polymax as a freebie and 50p back in virtual cash. No brainer.

Further to this, automation of drawbars is possible in the grid editor in EZKeys. MIDI dragged out of EZKeys seems to correctly affect the drawbars in BX-3. Other things can also be automated, I tried the scanner vibrato, but this requires manual assignment in BX-3.

A quick test for those wanting to use export MIDI to use in IK Hammond B-3X I selected MIDI in EZ Keys that used both upper and lower manuals. When the MIDI is dragged into Studio One two tracks are created, one for each manual. This can then be routed to the corresponding manuals in B3-X. Both Leslie speed and expression CC 11 are transferred to the upper manual track. Leslie speed is via the modulation controller and works well unless there is a Leslie break. Brake is midway value on the modulation cc from Session Organ which B3-X does not recognise. Theoretically you would need to manually insert CC93 value to brake the Leslie on BX-3 but I have not managed to make that work yet, probably user error. I does not appear that any other continuous controller data is generated by EZ keys. There are preset keys in Session Organ (the black keys on the lowest octave) I have not tested if these are transferred in the MIDI but in any case to work properly it would need the drawbar presets to be setup identically in both instruments. In conclusion the data from Session Organ will be usable in B3-X with some minor edits.

Installed (I have the subscription), a very quick listen to some of the presets and a bit of tweaking and I think its going to be a winner.

$69 later. https://cherryaudio.com/products/cr-78 I cant get excited about this one I am afraid.

Looks like I had this version already. I did find updates for Ampire High Density Pack, Channel Strip Collection and FAT Channel Collection when I logged in so the heads up was very useful.
