@Peter - IK Multimedia I am seeing an option to pay in installments for ToneX Max. Where and how does one pick this option? I tried all sorts of ways and no way to get to pick that option. OR $42 x 6 MONTH

and "* AmpliTube 5 MAX users are eligible for an extra $/€50 discount coupon on TONEX MAX ($199.99)" this is cool of IKM . Plus the option to pay in installements. But I can't see where to pick that option. Update: I am trying this fancy AI technology right now as we speak. THe CS download is 1.6 GB. Shows up in Product Manager automatically. Fairly seamless install.

yup. all those wanna be LOTR composers jumping in the game. LOL!!!

they make good stuff. i am a big Amplitube user but I still use STARK all the time.

The $99 deal upgrade. Though to be honest, i picked up Syntonic 2 and have been using that exclusively. It has more punch and the common interface to manage the samples is a time saver.

FWIW.. I looked at some of those. I realized I have pretty much all the of the cinematic compendium. I have been picked them up at 50% off during promos over the years. whatever is here and 50% off. i still don't own the latest V collection. https://www.arturia.com/sounds

yup. that is indeed a good option. i have so many plugins now. i just look at it and ask myself, "will i use it?" if you think you will use it, then go for it.

my price is $149

It sounds very good. Unfortunately I am heavily invested in so many other drum libraries.

Waves make some decent plugins. i dont pay WUP. ever.

Thanks. if its free. i will take it. !!

well.. thats one way to get demo's onto peoples machines. ?

wow. all time low for softube. to be honest, i don't really use it but i should.

I must admit, I am quite surprised by this IKM product being some on PA and wonder what is going on it the background. Are PA turning into APD and using their e-commerce store to generate revenue?

This is me with these IK guys and their deals.. Jeez.. I picked those up for peanuts less than 2 weeks ago.

I also picked up the 1.5 in the last GB, It installed and all my kits are seen and work -- old and new kits. Check to make sure your paths to the kits are correct and also, try to launch product manager and refresh it. I do recall that upon first launch of ModoDrum, the old kits had a pad lock on it. But then the screen refreshed and the padlock disappeared. My guess is something refreshed in background. Good luck,

Nice buy. I am itching to get another guitar.

I guess it was too much work and not enough incentive to keep working on it?

Cool. It looks like a IKM MixBox killer. Nice!!

I have so many sampled pianos that I think I can probably make a triple album of all piano music and still have some left over.

I believe you don't need to buy the dongles anymore if you buy their new software.. But I am still in C 10.5 and using the old licensing. Can't be arsed to upgrade. Everything works for me as is .

I am a big weird piano fanboi. I got ST Shipwrecked last year at the IKM GB sale. I really like it. Very cool. I also use NI's the Giant a lot. Its my most used K piano. I will go in there and screw around the reverb and fx to make it weirder. I crank up that Taj Mahal reverb to 110% baby!!! https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/keys/the-giant/

Yeah. Thats what the USB dongle is/was all about. The machine into which the dongle is plugged into is the one that can use the software. I believe Steinberg are doing away with the dongle and slowly migrating software to the new licensing scheme. Not sure about schedule.

you can pay $0 for the album and you get the download link for the songs plugin. these guys do this all the time.

LOL.. Duran Duran called. They want their funky back.
