YES- Sorry, I get these outfits mixed up. I agree. My Deluxe Bucks get spent quickly (on the next purchase). A GOOD DEAL from Audio Deluxe.

During the sale the "base price" for the full library was $10 or maybe $20 (by using $190 "Rewards money", which are kind of worthless, and most of us have a lot of them). I see today that the price is back to showing $199 with no "base price" option. I too got the $20 offer just today, and I have to think that considering how much they were cutting the goofy "retail" price that they would take your $20 offer. If not, best to be patient because it will likely be back in the 90% off bin before Christmas. I never heard about the other scuttlebutt.

Nobody delivers bang for the buck like Rigid Audio. IMHO these are some good ones, if you haven't already snapped them up in the past. Nothing new in this batch. Oopsy Dupesy! ? ?

I bought the base module "Sketchpad" on release. At the time no one on VI forum posted any comments about it, so I suppose it was not up to their standards. I had little experience with orchestral libraries and probably have a tin ear, but I liked it. I later added the soloist library (Melodics) which I liked as well. When I discovered Sonuscore "The Orchestra", I kind of forgot about Palette. TO is much lighter (I think Palette Sketch+Melodics run about 60 Gigs, but it sure sounds good to me. Palette does have three mics, which is nice so far as balancing some of the room sound out when desired. Palette also has the nifty ability to layer multiple articulations (just hold two or more keys). This let's you "cheat" some "new" sounds by mixing, say, a spiccato with a marcato or tenuto to get a shorter note with a sharper attack. I will no doubt give in and get the missing parts of the collection. My excuse being that I don't have any alleoric or runs/arp libraries, and this looks like a good intro for me. Guy Michelmore did a 30 minute video on Sketchpad. I have heard good things about the Primary Colors "taster" mentioned by @hsm, so that would be a good place to start.

Bless you sir! Mr Scheps is now back in my box, waiting to be tweaked. ? I even have that old freebie V11 distortion plug-in that I never use and refused to WUP working. ?

I think they might be running out of things to shape, but you gotta LOVE that interface. $22 if you already own ShaperBox 2 bundle to add it. Not sure how long the intro lasts. https://www.cableguys.com/noiseshaper.html

If you missed or passed on the bundle deal that just ended, I got this in my email today. I showed the discount without being logged in, so I don't think it is limited to current customers. You need to bring up the shopping cart to see the coupon entry blank before you go to checkout. I am still on the fence regarding getting the two parts I don't have. Will be doing some YT searching I guess. https://redroomaudio.com/

Geez- Me too. None of the plugs work on Windows 21H1 in Studio One 5.4, and about 75% won't load in Bitwig 4.0.5 To top it off, they have a real nice looking bug report form on the Waves site that won't allow itself to be filled in. I am sure the word will get to them, but they really ...... this release.

Pardon my grammar. For them that likes MIDI diddlers, there is a pretty informative thread at https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=517113

I believe you can use APD Bucks to get the full (100G+!) version for $10, but try this out first. I finally got around to giving the 6G freebie an audition today. Two big strikes against it for me- The patch names are just a word followed by a number. No indication of sound type, so you have to slog through everything. Worse- several of the samples start with a click noise. I am sue you can trim them out with ADSR points, but overall an indication of the work that didn't go into creating the product (beyond the nice UI). Meh.

Fiddlesticks. I went and pulled up my email regarding the coupons. They CAN be used for upgrades but with the $29 minimum spend. Oh well. At least they never expire. -EDIT- These are the coupons that came with purchase. KH also sent out a coupon in April that was 30 day expiration, $39 spend, and other differences. From KH email: The minimum spend is $29 You can get anything that regularly costs $29 for FREE! Your purchase can include multiple products Your coupons will not combine with any other discount Your coupons can be used in conjunction with upgrade offers Your coupons are single-use Your coupons cannot be combined Your coupons cannot be used for subscriptions Your coupons will not expire

I got it during a Black Friday sale, which I think they usually participate in. Be sure to check the dealers for possible further discounts or "future $ off". Kilohearts included two $30 "good forever" vouchers for direct purchases, which I am still sitting on, since the new (to me) toolbox entries were so cheap ?

Heads up for bundle owners- When I logged in the price showed as $16 because I own Ultimate. It ALSO showed as $14 because I own Toolbox Pro (which is a subset of Ultimate). Weird. I was able to make the purchase for $14 US (local sales taxes were computed in to keep the price exactly $14.00) https://kilohearts.com/products/convolver From the email- Don't be fooled into thinking that convolution is limited to just making nice reverbs... it can also impart the character of particular microphones or speakers, mimic unusual filters, or simply generate mathematical magnificence.

But make sure you don't miss the intro offer, which will expire on the 15th of October!

Love the pricing tier matrix. FOSS nerds rock ?

I could not remember if the vouchers on initial purchase were time limited. I know the annual voucher I got was (30 days). Since then, I just take the AD bucks and buy from them. I never really figured out what percentage was coming back from UVI direct sales as an annual voucher. Bird in the hand, as it were.

Get $19.52 Deluxe Bucks from Audio Deluxe. SAVE the $100 voucher for a bit if you can- When I bought in a few years ago I was able to get World Suite for @ $100 because it was on sale. ALSO UVI did a 30% off everything last BF I think. Might be worth waiting. I think I bought in during BF 2017. Falcon is amazing, and all updates to it and add-ons have been free so far for me.

https://bedroomproducersblog.com/2021/10/04/ujam-hustle-2-free/ NOTE- I have not tried this, as I already have the plug-in. When I was browsing ADSR though, there was a banner that showed the offer. You don't put Hustle in your cart, it is given automatically after purchase according to the ADSR site. Please don't shoot the messenger ? If anyone can confirm the deal works, please post.

Uff-da I don't remember where I found them. I downloaded about 20, listened to several, and then blew them away. I think I used their Reason + app to pull up the location. Sorry I can't be more specific. I wiped all the folders before re-installing RSuite 11. I know I found them though- so if nothing else you could probably do a search of your install drive for a unique patch name (assuming you are on Windows). They seem to keep everything in "Propellerhead Software" folders in the Documents and AppData folders BTW.

Yes in deed. I went from finishing my available list at 17 freebies, to rooting for 24 to finish my list AGAIN. Thanks for the ride IK!

YES- You can keep all the samples. loops, and banks. Just make sure that you back them up away from the default folder. I am not sure if that will stay after removing Plus.

Someone mentioned that a title was added to the GB in the past couple days. What was it?

I took the Splice coupon 3 months for free in May, then the Reason 3 months for $3 in July. I decided to dump it all and stick with Suite 11. Now they are giving another three months free with a new Splice code. If I were a customer paying $20 per month (or even the existing customers who took the one year for $99 offer in about February), I would be a bit unhappy. Between this and the big price increase for the v12 license, it makes interesting sideline viewing.

I don't think they make very compelling upgrade offers. I will stay with what I have, adding freebies and piecemeal when "super discounted" .
