Working here, thanks @Kurre

What he ^ said, lol! I am a guitarist so, although I know my way around a keyboard musically, I'm not much of a player, so I appreciate what EZKeys 2 can do in that regard. I can put together some chords and then apply some EZKeys MIDI to the plain chords and it sounds, at least to my ears, like a pro keyboardist playing my song in whichever style I choose. It also has some great tools to create musical chord sequences to help with writer's block when composing. I don't own Addictive Keys (only Addictive Drums) but I assume it is missing the compositional aspect that EZkeys covers so well.

Couldn't have put it better myself!

Thanks @Canopus I went for the Synthwave EKX and it offered the Synthwave EZKeys MIDI at the checkout for 9 EUR. I might also grab some of the other MIDIs before the sale ends. It probably goes without saying, but some of these might work out cheaper at 3rd parties such as JRR, Bestservice, AudioDeluxe etc. Like most of you who have been here a while, I probably don't need anything new, but EZKeys is one of my most used plugins and I find these MIDI packs useful, and the Synthwave instrument was one I didn't already own.

Me too 🙄 GAS disease - collect but rarely use 😂 At least I have reduced my GAS significantly, especially since Larry no longer posts endless deals. Now I only buy deals that are "must have" items to languish, unused on my SSD. P.S. Thanks for your Glitchmachines post - I'll have to grab a few more must haves from them.

I haven't used it much yet, just run through a lot of the presets. It mostly seems to cover evolving, cinematic pads and these sound excellent and complex. I would usually use something like Omnisphere for these kind of sounds but at this price it's definitely worth the punt. It's also a Kontakt player library so you don't need to own full Kontakt (although I do). If you are still unsure have a listen to the many preset demos on the website or on YouTube.

Bargain, thanks. I got Ambition plus Dawn and Relic expansion packs, plus free Joey Waronker - Drums and Percussion Vol 1 (will add it to my huge collection of LoopLoft drum stuff 😉) !

Yeah, was kinda hoping that LIFE would be included, but no joy. Maybe they will improve the BF deals as we get closer to Black Friday? I sure hope so!

Still works for me - at least on Vintage Dead...

Thanks @bluzdog Vintage Dead for £25.60 using this code. Not bad.

Wow! That was brilliant. Really enjoyed this one. Great one!

Exact same thing happened here.

Thanks @Brian Walton I got version 3 of this in an old Humble Bundle deal and then upgraded to v5 but haven't upgraded since. At this price it seems like a no brainer!

Thanks @User 905133 I bought it on intro sale and it has been updated regularly by the dev. Incidentally, since v1.29 if you look in the zip you downloaded you will find a folder called "Harmony Bloom Expansion Pack V1". You can drag and drop the whole folder to the UI to add 60 new presets. Alternatively, you can add them individually in the same way.

Also worth checking your D16 User Area for coupons. I have one for Lush 2 crossgrade for 69 Euros and Drumazon 2 for 29 Euros.
