Thinking of getting this. Grown to about 10GB, I believe all extensions are included now. Already have RE-Strings for Reason but this is another cookie entirely. 

[Benny Bear]

Love the VSM.

Use it far too much.

The 'Essential String Machine' list is virtually my record collection!

[Fleer]

Got it in

[abacab]

Essential String Machine. Nice list!

[abacab]

How does this compare to Arturia's Solina and Mellotron?

Okay I have to ask. What type of cookie are you talking about? 

[Fleer]

A much smaller one, a bit stale even

[InstrEd]

Dunk it in some Boston Coffee

[Fleer]

Always do

Same question...

[Fleer]

GForce is incredibly dedicated to detail and you can get the original tapes (for M-Tron Pro) like the pretty amazingly sounding Streetly expansions. Quite something. As for VSM, they include all former expansions at the current (crazy) price of £33 until the end of April.

Probably cheaper on ADSR as there its $44 + you get the Diginoiz TrapDrive distortion plug chucked into the deal:

That swung it for me Guys - €33 when converted

Takes a while to download it all but that is quite the collection for just forty quid. I had a few vintage string sounds (Toontrack String Machine and Mellotoon) but yep this is definitely worth it imho.

Thanks for the heads up
