Excellent plugin and great deal! Again I bought it last month for $14... Loving it!

I thought I remembered something along those lines, but with the changing times...

Me too... Not my first dance either. But I’m still happy with it at the price I paid. It’s a great piece of software even at full price! Sadly, these sales are leading me to believe there won’t be any updates/upgrades. I hope I’m wrong as it definitely has room to grow!

Yup... great price too! I just bought it last month on sale for $69, so this is even better! ...too bad I didn’t wait, huh?

No bar? Where is a man supposed to get a drink?

Yeah. I remember when it first came out. I’ve been reading it ever since. ...sad to see it go.

Interesting.... I don't notice as much of a change on my DAW as I do I my iPad. Here on my DAW I wouldn't have realized anything had changed but on my iPad, colors and such are different? I guess it's the way my eyes interface with the screens?

Yeah... Seeing many subtle differences at first view.... My first attempt this morning gave error messages but soon changed to the update notice and quickly has now been placed online... Excellent. I look forward to finding the new changes and differences. So far, it looks more clear and crisper! Everything is easier to read! Thanks!

I couldn’t have said it better! I’m in the same boat!

Yup! Very possibly the case. For me, I’m somewhat unconcerned and plan to buy the new Sonar immediately as it is my future!

Absolutely! I wouldn’t have it any other way ... ...and thinking the final CbB to have bug fixes, but little or no new features.

Good observation. I imagine it's worth the cost of server activity and clerical work to spend. At least for a while? BTW I can see that’s gonna be a busy server day! (Week/month)

A thread like this probably needs some derailing to survive? ?

...always time for a cuppa!

But these days I can do both at the same time! ?

All true... But hopefully enuf of the initial fracas has died down by now? I'd even be happy with a one-way stream from them with occasional juicy tidbits. Enticements? Advertising? They could even make tantalizing jokes! (?)

Yup! I’m in the club too. I check many times each day!

Sweet where not a visibility issue.... or even better... Go swimming instead of performing in adverse conditions! I like it! ?

Careful to make sure it’s sealed well! I chose a thick headband and a bucket of water in reach (away from electronics and floor level).

Yeah... and it’s getting worse as earth's climate is in process of warming... I had a similar experience recently and don’t wish it on anyone! I remember when I lived in New Mexico many decades ago I discovered people wearing flannel shirts in 110 120° weather . The reason being the dryness was worse than the heat so people soaked their flannel shirts constantly to stay wet ! That and wet headbands under hats ...

There was no VST3 file in the common folder for BBC Symphony Orchestra until I put a copy there

Actually, I don't think so... The problem turns out to be that Cake's plugin manager has the old common file path for the plugin's location instead of the new foldered location. I fixed mine brute force copying the vst3 dll to the common vst3 folder... Then Cake loads it fine, but next update I'll have to fix it again etc... so I will probably go the long route and do a reset, followed by a Plugin manager Re-Scan All Plugins (How I hate doing this!) So that it scans for the new location... Then all should be well for the immediate future...

[Solved] See bottom edit... I'm really twisted now... I finally was forced to do a full reset of 1.5 followed by a repair of 1.7... yet when it loads, it shows 1.5 and no piano? I'm stymied... Glad ta meetcha! ok... many tries later... Finally allowed to re-install 1.5, then it wouldn't show the update. I ran the 1.7 repair and still no go... Then it showed 1.5 as uninstalled??? So I installed and closed the spitfire updater. 1.5 installed and working.... Finally reopening their loader showed the 1.7 update. so I ran it, back to can't open I reopened their loader again and it again showed the 1.7 update so I ran it again! Still giving me grief with loading the vst folder and showing the pah with the .vst3 extension even though I renamed it??? What am I missing??? What a mess! Situation still the same vst3 won't load, but the vst2 loads fine and I can hear the piano. It does sound very natural. A few oddities in the samples, but nothing unforgiving (I don't think so, anyway)... Other than the slight dynamics control there are no other controls or adjustments... Still not bad in a free version. Piano sounds full in and of itself... Still need to solve the vst3 dilemma though. I have renamed the folder but continue to receive an error message showing the folder with the .vst3 end on it... sheesh! Ha! Figured it out... Not related to renaming the folder... I read the info displayed in Plugin Manager and it displayed the vst3's expected location to be in the common folder... It was not! So I copied the vst3 file into the common vst3 folder (program files/common files/vst3) and now all is well... Be on the lookout for this oddity too... I'm guessing that if I re-scanned all the plugins (uhg!) It may have solved it? Oh well... Fixed is fixed. I'll do my best to remember in case any issues come up... But sweet... It really is a great sampled piano as far as my poor ears can tell... I can see the urge to buy core or producer to gain all the room sound... We'll see if life grants me money some day... Whew!

Thanks, but I'm still getting the same error message even after renaming the folder. I see no other such entries. Did it require re-scanning the plugin (vst3)

It’s included for purchase. Maybe it’s included in the full version. I’m only running CS
