The mouse travels further on a bigger screen? Why didn't I think of that.

Guess Amazon finally figured out that Canada is really a mythical land.

Note that it is $25 AUD.

Ouch!

The way I figure it, the money I save from buying something on sale can be rolled over to new purchases. I now have thousands of dollars banked up from Wave, and PA purchases alone, not to mention 8Dio and Rigid Audio.

Not to dredge up old memories, but didn't Apple try to sue someone over rounded corners? Hope Microsoft is not in trouble.

I thought 21H2 rather catchy.

Read that as Ma-cows, not Mac-ows. Visions of Farside dancing in my head.

What are they trying to fix by making it center aligned? More OS X like?

Borderline?

No. Conversation is good. Interaction is good. It is fine if you express a different opinion or even point to independent studies that back up your point. However, it is the manner in which you went about it with statements like "Leaves intel and amd in the StoneAge", your whole mean girls thing, questioning my ability to search, questioning Jim's expertise, calling everyone a bully. Your whole attitude has been "me against the world" and it is not healthy. To paraphrase you, "if you can't see that, then you have issues I can’t begin to address."

You really need to let this go. You have engendered so much ill will that even if you are proved right in the end and are vindicated, it will be a hollow victory. No one is going to want to interact with you after you have belittle and insulted people right, left and center. And saying "well they did it first" is childish and will not improve your standing in the community.

Not in Canada. ?

I bought this two days ago and I have already composed a potential Oscar winning soundtrack sure to take the world by storm. Seriously, these are really good.

Agree 100%. I am all for competition and the more the better because we will all benefit in the end. What I am not for is people asserting that their gluphorkan of choice is so much better than yours, you may as well go home and die because what you are using now is so obsolete. What was that about a sale again?

I've read that if you disable four cores, you can overclock them higher and get even better single core performance because less heat is being generated.

Three topics you should never bring up at Thanksgiving dinners, politics, religion, and Apple verses PC.

You are funny, I know how to search just fine thank you. I think maybe my Google is still broken, because using the search parameters you gave me, I found only three videos that actually addressed the 8gb issue, not the dozens you claim to have found. Two of the three videos I found concluded that you should go for 16 GB (even the one you linked to), even though 8GB will run okay for run of the mill projects. You must really like abuse to antagonize people the way you do.

If you are going to get Liquid Music anyway, don't bother with Liquid Rhythm from JRR. The Liquid Music & Liquid Rhythm bundle is currently $99 on the WaveDNA site.

Well, I am trying to find those many many videos and reviews you keep talking about. Maybe my Google is broken. The power/performance ratio is impressive, but from what I've read the M1 more on par with Intel/AMD and is actually worse when Rosetta is factored in. It certainly does not make Intel/AMD processors appear stone age.

Colour me skeptical, but I find it hard to believe you were able to do all this on an 8 GB M1. 20 Kontakt instances on top of over 100 tracks? Pictures or it didn't happen. When Fleer gets his M1, he will be able to confirm your findings.

Come on man! Jim posted a screen shot of his memory usage. It was definitely on a MAC. He even specified it was a M1 Mac Mini running OSX Big Sur v11.3. It did have 16 GB of memory, not 8. Jim didn't say that one instance of grandeur would use 8 GB of ram. But loading Grandeur with whatever else was running at the time, seemed to put it over 8 GB. Now the M1 may be an impressive processor, especially considering it's low power, but nothing I have seen so far indicates that it leaves Intel or AMD processors in the dust.

Addiction has the dubious distinction of being my first buyers regret synth even though I only threw 10 bucks at it. If only I had listened to my dear ol' dad and invested that $10 in pork belly futures. I be rich, rich, rich today.

Too bad. I needed Terrie to complete my collection. $28 is still more that 50% off regular price but I think I will wait.

They never were offered for free. I cross-graded Phoenix-Mirage when it was released, but had to pay $5/ea for the cross-grade. I didn't bother with Terracotta. I was actually surprised that Artic Strings-Mirage was free for Kontakt users. However I am not sure I like the Mirage interface over the Kontakt interface.
