Nice, thanks. Not bad for 9 dollars. Link here https://www.rayzoon.com/online_shop.html#ot

I picked this up when it was on before and only had 2 duplicates. Even so when I contacted AAS support they were happy to swap out my duplicates for sound packs that I didn't own. AAS are a great company to deal with and one reason why I plan on spending more money with them.

Cheers Grem. I know some folk don't like the UI but I'm OK with it and I really like the sound of the session version of VA-2. I definitely plan on "completing my bundle" this year ?? I am just wondering whether to go for the VA-3 upgrade now at $49 and whether that will reduce my "complete my bundle" price during the next sale. ?

Hey Edith I have the full version of GS-2 but it's only offering me the upgrade for Session owners so I am guessing the upgrade price might be for VA-2 owners or maybe if you own more than one full product? Every time I get the half price offer to upgrade to the full bundle something else comes along to tempt me...last time it was the iZotope MPS 2.1 upgrade followed by the AXE I/O IKM Group Buy. I've got my sights set on the bundle upgrade next time though, honest ...

It's on the AAS website now... https://www.applied-acoustics.com/ultra-analog-va-3/ I checked my account and VA-3 upgrade for Session users is $49 (half price) - may be cheaper at the usual places in due course (JRR etc). Might be even cheaper for existing VA-2 owners. The Complete Your Bundle upgrade is currently full price but now includes VA-3. I will wait for the half price bundle upgrade again (BF maybe).

I have both of the NI Strummed Acoustics and seem to use them more than any other Acoustic Guitar plugins even though I have quite a few. They are just really easy to use and sit very nicely in the mix. The downside has always been that they are just pattern players and you cannot even add your own patterns. Picked Acoustic not only sounds great but is a good deal more flexible allowing MIDI note input. Just reading Mark's post as I type this and it seems even more compelling! Now I have to decide whether to get it now with the voucher or wait to see if it's in the next half price sale. ?

I received an email from JRR with the Loom II product license and at the end of the email it said..."Free with your purchase, the Tapestry expansion pack and Touch Loops AIR Bonus Pack: -" with links to each item. Incidentally I already had Loom installed and Loom II seems to have replaced it but all of the Loom 1 patches are available under a Loom 1 Legacy folder.

No brainer, thanks PaulP. The upgrade includes Tapestry expansion pack and Touch Loops AIR Bonus Pack.

Looking good and it's Player compatible for those who don't have full Kontakt.

Thanks for the heads-up on the Walker Steinway Fleer! Nice one ??

After watching a couple of YouTube vids they convinced me. It also let me stack my Sept voucher with the deal voucher.

That is one gorgeous guitar Larry! It certainly looks like it's worth double what you paid. Nice one ? What a carry on with the first guitar but it was obviously meant to be.

Good point KK. Does anyone know how Master Match (IK) and Ozone (iZotope) compare to Metric AB for track referencing? Trying to resist the GAS if I already have something that does the same job. I have used Ozone 8 quite a lot but not for track referencing and never used Master Match although I have it.

I see your point as it seems that IK licenses allow use on up to 3 computers owned by the licensee (and I knew about the NFR). When I look at the options again on my PC I can see why I thought none were greyed out. The different greys are very hard to distinguish from each other in Chrome on my PC but much easier in Chrome on my phone! That said there are many options which I already own that aren't greyed out. ?

Yes I have Total Studio 2 Max plus a load of other separate purchases. For Amplitube I now have everything and TRacks I just need 3 of the tapes and Leslie. Might be as Larry says above due to bundles vs separate purchases. Seems overly complicated. Edit: I am editing this on my phone but when I just went back in on my phone there are quite a few greyed out including the items I have just obtained through the GB. It looks like it needs fixing as I was planning on another copy of Amplitube Leslie not to mention a few others.

T-Racks 5 is there in the list for me (I also purchased an AXE I/O so have all options available). I am using Chrome.

Thanks Matthew, some useful information. With Black Friday around the corner I might wait a bit.

Thanks Larry. I have looked at this before but I might bite this time. I was also looking at the bundles one of which includes two other products Melodic Flow and ChordPotion which also look interesting. Does anyone have any of these? Matthew (I think you said you had Sundog)? In any case I will try the latest demos.

Thanks Ryan, that sorted it! That's the only setting I didn't notice ??‍♂️ All working fine now ??

Guitar Pro 7 is a good one (paid) --> https://www.guitar-pro.com/ or a free one is Tux Guitar --> https://sourceforge.net/projects/tuxguitar/

Cheers Mesh! Well, I am all up and running and it's sounding great with a nice low latency! ?? The only issue I have is that I cannot get the preset knob on the front to do anything in Amplitube. I have checked the MIDI settings in Amplitube and in the Axe I/O control software but no joy so far. I am using version 4.9 of Amplitube which should work OK according to the documentation and the interface was already on the latest firmware (1.04). Any thoughts on what the issue is? Anyone else with an Axe I/O got it working or did it just work out of the box? In Amplitube when you go into MIDI, "presets control" is checked and the MIDI channel set to the same as the Axe I/O. However, when I select Control Change -- Global and "Learn" it does not detect any movement or push of the preset knob. ?

My AXE I/O arrived this morning and the GB options appeared in my account as soon as I registered it. ?? Looking forward to installing and giving it a good audition later on. First impressions are that it's physically smaller than I thought it would be and feels very well built/made to last despite the plastic sides. The knobs are all smooth and don't have any play in them and the switches have a nice positive action. I like that the XLR inputs are on the back so I can hide my mic input there and focus on the guitar inputs at the front. I am really looking forward to being able to access the Amplitube presets from the front panel though...one of my pet hates about Amplitube are the cascading menus which can make it tricky to select presets. The GB also means that I will now own everything that's available in Amplitube so no more popups about missing effects etc.

Thanks Larry. VG Iron is the is the one I don't have yet and it looks quite usable.

Thanks @Magic Russ just what I was looking for.

Downloading now, cheers Larry!
