One of my favourites among the power synths. It just sounds great and an update is coming soon.

Forgot about this one, thanks! Will be checking out Pitch Monster and it's also at PluginBoutique (£49.96) where I have £9 of virtual cash waiting to be spent

Thanks, that worked for me ? I will also be giving Nolly and Plini a good listen before the sale ends!

Thanks for the information. I don't really need anything else from them either to be honest but I thought I remembered some folk here saying that one of the modulation plugins was good (Syntorus 2 maybe?) . I have eyed up Lush 101 so many times when it is on sale...one day maybe. I am just full to the brim with synths!

^^^^^^This

That's a good point! I now have Frontier (free), Drumazon (free yesterday from PB) and now Devastor 2 plus a 50% voucher. Any recommendations?

I tried the demo of "Lucy" before although the demo was a bit a limited in range these sound really good. I thought $200 for one voice seemed a bit steep though, and on sale at $139 per voice is getting closer but I would probably bite at $99.

Cheers Larry. Looks interesting - clicking on the Download Free button you get this popup which says the 30 day trial will be available from 7th December.

Thanks Larry. I skipped the last update as people said there were some issues. With this update there was an option to delete the old data files which I did and the update worked fine.

Doh ??‍♂️! Apologies Larry - I always seem to rushing between multiple things at once e.g. updating iZotope and currently beta testing Unify so I got as far as "Get it at iZotope now..." and I was gone. I have double corrected my post now ?

That's weird thanks for pointing it out. I will add that to my post to avoid confusion. Also I meant to say that my Product Portal also updated itself when I checked for an update. Product Portal is now on version 1.3.6b1 Win10|64.

Thanks Larry! EDIT2: As Larry pointed out you will get v1.8 via Product Portal. To get v1.9 download/install manually from https://www.izotope.com/en/products/vinyl.html (thanks @Promidi). Love the little easter egg/animation - click on 3 of the screws at each corner and the front panel will spin around revealing the authors and version number. Clicking on the final screw will remove the panel completely EDIT3: Now I have installed v1.9 which is very nice and much improved but the old easter egg is not there ? Prize for the first person to find a new easter egg.

I'm seeing the same as you TS, and nowadays on the new PC I only have v12 and v11 Waves plugins installed. I also now run CbB in manual scan mode and only scan when I have a new or updated plugin. I have also noticed though that v12 x64 Waveshell seems to pause for longer than the other Waveshells when scanned no matter which host it is (for me that's Studio One Pro 5, CbB and Cantabile).

I got this the last time it was on a deal and it's worth it for all of the MIDI patterns that come with it.

Thanks Larry! @Mesh looks like Damage 2 is not included in this sale so the Heavyocity deal is the way to go right now or wait and see if anything better turns up for BF.

I think you are probably paying for the content rather than the synth. Looking at the content it's not like a traditional ROMpler but seems to mainly cover a lot of different synthesizers (kind of like Synth Anthology on the cheap). Zampler is based on Synapse Audio Dune except that the oscillator section is replaced with SFZ, the filter section is simplified and all unison stuff is removed.

One bit of good news I read for small IOS developers was about Apple lowering the store fees... https://www.macrumors.com/2020/11/18/apple-drops-app-store-fees/

No probs Larry! Then again Sugar Bytes often have sales around BF so I expect the situation will change soon

I think you can download these to try them out indefinitely but to obtain the full content is an IAP Larry. i.e. Drum Computer IAP is £25.99, Looperator, Aparillo and Factory £17.99 in the UK At least that's what it shows on my iPad right now.

To anyone who has installed Video Studio Ultimate 2020 and keeps getting popup adverts in the system tray just to let you know that you can disable this in Videostudio under Help --> Message Preferences.

I am pretty much at saturation and already splurged most of my BF funds on Omnisphere 2 (15% off) so I'll probably just be looking for the odd small thing like EZKeys or EZDrums addons.

Thanks I have corrected my post.

There's a crossgrade Mesh but that seems to be full price (for a crossgrade) which is £224. I wonder if that will drop to half price soon (£112) which might be worth waiting for. So that would make it $199 or around £150 with the current exchange rates.

Interesting. I have Damage 1 as part of K13U - does that count?

I liked the idea of it and bought it when it was on sale but haven't really used it much. The UI is a bit odd in how it works. The videos on the PluginBoutique will give you a fair indication of what to expect and you can also download a trial version. Here's a short snippet I made using one of the built-in Bach MIDI files. The bass and keyboard are using MIDI from ReMIDI, the rest are sample tracks. https://www.soundclick.com/music/songInfo.cfm?songID=13984146
