  1. Finally a sale on EZBass midi! I’ve been waiting a long time for this. The big question now is should I wait even longer and hold out for the EZBass midi 6 pack that is inevitable going to be released. When it is finally released, Time+Space will likely sell the 6 pack for $99. Hmmm… delayed gratification to save $39 at a future unspecified date…
  2. A new upright bass expansion is coming in September! The three pack brings the price way down!
  3. A wise man once said... "The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low prices." Buyer's remorse is a terrible thing....
  4. No harm yet - I typically think and consider for a long time before pulling the trigger.
  5. Apologies - I haven't read all 80 pages of this thread to see if this question has already been answered. If I were to buy Amplitude 5 SE as my qualifying product, can I then use one of my freebees to purchase the upgrade to the full version of Amplitude 5?
  6. A little flavor of NY Studio Vol 2... A good SDX and the price is right with the sale. That said there is a lot of overlap with the Ludwig kits and snares included Legacy of Rock which is a better SDX...
  7. I bought my copy of Legacy of Rock during the last BestService.com savings event which had a $30 savings coupon for products costing at least $149. That combined with some saved up BestCoin brought the price down to a more reasonable $110. The twice a year BestService event is the only way I know of to get a discount on the newer SDX's.
  8. I'd wait and save up for Legacy of Rock. Both New York volume 2 and Legacy of Rock are heavily focused on classic Ludwig kits. Legacy of Rock sounds amazing and has a lot more options.
  9. It originally came out in 2009.
  10. Thanks! The free link worked for me. H-Comp is now registered to my Waves account.

  12. Friday the 13th sale! 30% off on UVI’s entire website! Could be a good time to pick up a few Falcon expansion packs, https://www.uvi.net/store
  13. I’ve heard very good things about the Modern U. The only upright piano I currently own is Native Instrument’s The Gentleman. I hardly ever use it. 90% of my time is spent with the Garritan Concert Grand CFX. That said, a good upright has a certain intimacy that a concert grand does not have. It seems like the Modern U would be a significant upgrade over The Gentleman. Any guesses if the Modern U will be cheaper on BF?
  14. Even better, all soundpacks are $19 at Applied Acoustics Systems site right now. There are also some good deals on their other products and bundles. https://www.applied-acoustics.com/products/
  15. Welcome back Larry! It has been a bit slow around here without you. I’m hoping to ramp my deals addiction back up to full speed.

  17. Legend has it that there was a mythic figure named Larry who at one time frequented these forums. The old tales describe an ancient shaman who was rumored to be a prodigious finder of almost supernatural deals. But that was such a long time ago. Nobody believes those old stories anymore...
  18. All Ample Sound instruments and bundles are reduced by 20% until August 19th. Combine this with the current $30 off promo from Best Service and you have a pretty good deal! https://www.bestservice.com/deals/ample_sound_summer_sale_3415.html
  19. Thanks - I've also been a loyal customer for years. I'll give it a try but rest assured I won't mention your name.
  20. I have a total of $148 in my cart. Are you saying that if I contact Best Service they might get me over the hump to $149?
  21. The short answer is yes, the Canterbury can definitely sparkle - Both the Canterbury and the Scarbee can be drastically changed by the presets and settings. Here is a quick comparison between the Canterbury Suitcase and the Scarbee 88 with brighter settings playing a bit of Toontrack midi. One nice thing about Canterbury is that the presets are divided up between "Clean", "Dirty" and "Experimental". Both are great Rhodes libraries. Canterbury vs Scarbee 88.wav 1 - Canterbury - "A Good Start" preset 2 - Scarbee 88 - "A Warm & Crispy Pan" preset (I turned down the vibrato some for an even comparison)

  23. The original complaints about the hiss were in July of 2020. It looks like the update claiming to have fixed the hiss was in October 2020. I haven't pulled the trigger on purchasing the Famous E yet so I can't verify any of this. I'm only sharing what little information you can glean from the internet.
  24. Scarbee’s earlier A200 is 850 MB. The Classic EP-88S is 5.6 GB with 30 velocity layers. To my ears the Classic EP88 sounds better. More importantly, provided you have a fast computer, it plays way better! That said, I use the Soniccouture Canterbury Suitcase most often. It seems to have more grit than the Classic EP88. Most of the current Rhodes releases are all quite good. It really comes down to personal taste. It’s fun to have many flavors!
