westwoodinstruments.com/instruments/altpiano/ Now 39 euros. Instead of 59. Spitfire Audio also have a number of piano libraries on offer. Anyone else found some Piano Day offers?

For Deal Hunters. If you download the free Felt Piano, within 48 hours you will receive a 20% discount code to use within 7 days on all libraries.

While looking for some Kontakt player Violin samples, I came across Westwood Instruments. Home - Westwood Instruments They have, a violin for 69 euros - that sounds beautiful. Plus - for the Deal Junkies - there is a free Felt Piano available that sounds reallll nice. UPRIGHT FELT PIANO - Westwood Instruments Very much in the vein of Spitfire Audio

Just bought the Banjo for possible future use. I love me some Bluegrass. The download is verrrrry slow though. Too many people taking advantage of the sale, I hope for them. I was tempted by the fiddle too - I've been wanting a realistic country fiddle (like Scarlet Rivera) for a while, and this is the closest I've heard yet. Good stuff.

Sales up!

The interface looks very similar to an old version of TRacks. ?️ I've got the Blue Tubes modules that came with Sonar Platinum. It's there anything worth getting above and beyond those in this offering?

Is that a Best in Show reference? Good on ya, if it is.

Is this a deal? ?‍♂️

Sonuscore Origin instruments are some of the few Kontakt tools that I actually use on a regular basis. Great quality.

Didn't Revalver come free with previous versions of Sonar? I'm pretty sure I've got it on my system...yep, just checked. It came with Platinum.

I'm happy to support Melda with the little I can afford. 6 Euros is the least I can do for them.

Syndrome

Oh! That's a very good deal. I've got an upgrade price of 99 euros, but for anyone who hasn't got Kontakt 5 full, that is a very good price indeed. Nice one Larry!

Possibly my fault for trying to get it to scan the 32bit vst folder. ?‍♂️

Brand new SSD. I suspect it has something to do with Magix Vegas corrupting the VSTs. Had to do a repair of Addictive Drums this morning.

Can anyone help? I have no idea what happened - I was using CbB this morning without trouble, but this evening when I turned on the laptop the CbB link was blanked out and so too was my old version of Platinum, Kontakt 5 & 6 .... I reinstalled CbB Kontakt and got it working but then I found that various FX are corrupted EzMix, Nomad FX... Any idea what could have happened? The only thought I had was that I used Vegas Pro earlier and tried a VST scan to use RX7 on a project, it hung when scanning and I needed to force the program to close. Could that have corrupted them? I'm now having to figure out which fx need reinstalling and where to find the installers.

Hey guys, I just wanted to update this thread. I've released this track on Spotify. I decided to try out mastering it using Bandlab free mastering tools...and I was pleasantly surprised. What do you think? https://open.spotify.com/track/6N1zwCjSueUl3kqj60wevU?si=PztMnNLWTUGDxRDHlIQs5Q

It sounds great, no denying....but I find it sad that fewer and fewer people are playing real instruments. Just sitting down with an acoustic and twiddling around is so therapeutic, just as putting pen to paper beats typing on a keyboard every time, plugging in an electric and pretending to be Hendrix....how you gonna pose in front of the mirror in your spandex with this VST? I guess this is why I gravitate towards 'left-field' music that could not be reproduced on a VST. I'd love to hear someone try and pull off Thurston Moore or the Pixies Debaser on this thing The same with virtual drums or Piano - they sound great for certain genres, but try and do Elliot Smith...nah! Nothing beats a real instrument sound

Not exactly - the 29 price is only for those who have Beatmaker 2. It doesn't apply to other UJAM products. It's the same price on the UJAM website, so log in and you'll see the offer,

Do you have a top notch video card? I tried da Vinci, but my laptop couldn't take the pain.

I think it needs to be said that izotope DO make great products. That out the way. They also have a highly addiction inducing marketing cycle. Each year a new BETTER version. They hook you in with the elements, tempt you with GREAT upgrade deals. I also have a sneaking suspicion that there is an inbuilt product degradation in the AI. The first months of use it seems to produce miracles, after which the AI appears no better than Bandlab Mastering (or is that just me?). Going subscription just seems like an extension of their marketing practise. For good and for bad.

I really wanted to get excited about this deal, but.... I've got quite a few of splash sounds early libraries (thanks to Larry) but I've never been able to find a place for them in a mix. Something is too overwhelming about the sound. Too loud or lacking sensitivity. What do you use epic percussion for? Could it work in a piece of music or is it best for film trailer your of stuff?

It's Russian for Chevy Chase.

A dumb question... I'm guessing all of us here use CbB, right? Why do you need to buy another DAW? Isn't it overkill? *Waiting for flack* ?

I get your point....but then why join a Facebook group to ask the question 'should I upgrade?' if you know of this issue? Nah. If I were to be cruel, most of them are old guys in hats (what is it about hats and old guys?) ?
