Nothing on my list was 50% off. Back to waiting.

Not even close to enough new functionality that I don't already have covered very well.

A) My upgrade price is $149. B) I own the Soundtoys bundle. C) Easy pass.

Up now in a black bar across the top of their website. Purchased and d/l'd. I've liked Stawczyk's previous work, and don't expect anything less than his usual very good effort. I don't like the way it installs. Instead of a bank called Insomnia with instrument/pad subbanks under it, each instrument/pad type is a separate bank. Unnecessarily clutters the bank select menu. I complained about a previous sound bank's install and an AAS tech sent me a personal update, but advised that there were no plans to update existing owners or update the pack being sold. Still thrilled to have a new sound bank for the Lizard!

When are they going to put Modern U on a similar sale? I've got the bundle and the Ravenscroft (!!!). Waiting for a chance to pick up their upright.

FYI. EZXes that require EZDrummer v1 or higher are 16-bit libraries. Ones that require EZD v2 or higher are 24-bit libraries.

Beat me to it. I first came across this VI when I bought their True Keys piano bundle. Didn't know it was free to anyone. I also have the Ravenscroft VI. Only Modern U to go!

Cwapola. Think it will go on sale again? Ha ha ha. Me, too!

I was missing only the Satriani and Brian May collections. Now just May's. Bye bye $41.99.

Until you mentioned that this was a Bösendorfer 280VC, I was going to pass. I've never had a chance to play a real 280, so this will have to suffice! Interesting that the UVI Austrian Grand supports the 97-key 290 keybed. The 280VC has the standard 88 kays. I wonder if NI will release an S97 update to their S88 keyboard. Wishful thinking.

The only collections I don't have yet are Satriani, Brian May and Dimebag Darrell, so this one does me no good. Maybe Black Friday.

Cthulhu is only $39. Serum, on the other hand, is pricey. I never bought it. But I did notice that the dev posted a recent update for Cthulhu (v1.24b2, dated May 2021). Downloading from my account now. Release notes: Version 1.24b1 (May 2021) - fix: sync improvements - fix: graphics performance improvements - fix: MIDI program changes now work with Cthulhu UI hidden - fix: some CPU reduction

I upgraded from Studio 4 to Studio 5 last year at this time. FWIW, I paid $136.85. $80 sounds pretty good!

I got 2 emails, one with the loyalty discount (I have Riffer), and one without. The discount code email came first. Weird. So, 29€ instead of 39€, direct from AudioModern.

My mother bought a 6' Kawai in the '80s. That fit beautifully in her living room. It sounded great and had a lovely feeling keybed.

The real ones are gorgeous instruments. Made down the hill in Scottsdale. Ravenscroft Pianos

I just checked my iLok account. All my VI Labs pianos, including the Ravenscroft, have 3 authorizations. Soft (PC) authorizations are supported, so you don't need a physical dongle.

The Xtra Styles will ALWAYS remain separate from the main program. The Xtra packs go on sale around Black Friday, when the next major release becomes available. The current sale price is the regular sale price. In other words, it won't ever be cheaper. If you don't have any of them, now's as good a time as any to pick up all 11 Xtra Styles packs (since you have 2021 Ultra).

How many years have we been waiting for the v2 upgrade? Sheesh.

Then you must still be under 18! I recall from my visits to Dublin that under-18s got Smithwick's. Under-21s got a Smithwick's with a head of Guinness. 21 and up? Full on Guinness! Of course, those were general guidelines followed by no one! ?

The photos of that strat don't do the color scheme justice. Years ago, I bought a GC/MF exclusive build of the Ascari GT in Irish Ale. Gorgeous. Excellent quality fit and finish. Love the piping. The third 'bucker and 10-way switch were the exclusives.

Just very slow. As in "VERY". I also noticed a Percussion LABS instrument available for d/l.

Sure could have used those extra JAM points when I bought Miroslav 2 last week. I only had 10 left at the time. At least I have a few in the bank again.

WAY too much fun for a Friday morning Premiere!
