EZKeys 2 coming April 3rd?

[Canopus]

Well, people in that part of Sweden are domestically known not to be stressed or rush into things. Everything has its time. A time to code, A time to test; A time to deploy, And a time to have the morronfika.

Little do they know that the natives are getting restless.

It's now 10:00AM in Sweden. Not available yet.

I think they normally release around 2pm Sweden time  (EZbass/EZD3 for example)

EDIT - on their FB page they say

Quote

The product will be available earliest at 14:00 CET (Europe) / 7:00 PM Central Time (US) on release day.

although I think they got the CET to US time conversion a bit wrong

Yay, Installed!

Installed!

There were also updates to the the small EZK1 MIDI library and the 9 EZK1 pianos that I have licenses for. For me, it was about 6 GB of total downloads.

EZK2 scales nicely on my 4K display, but I had to switch it to full screen, since the scaling is slightly off (the bottom of the window was just below the top of the taskbar. Full screen? It's SO nice! I'll check the VST versions later. Time to walk my dogs before their lunch.

Installing... 10.2 GBs worth!

Reaper says it has 4 stereo outputs, and I see you can create multiple tracks in one instance. 

But I don't see anywhere what's the use for it...

I really like the sound of the built-in EZkeys 2 Session Grand. It’s so much better than the EZkeys Studio Grand which I already had, but honestly almost never used.

Finally all done - had a very quick play - looks amazing ???

[Sander Verstraten]

EZkeys 1 is still available as a plugin/standalone on your system. But I very much doubt that it's an independent license that can be resold, if that's what you meant.

Not unusual IMO, they were probably still testing  that when it was release time.

I'd expect at least 2 more updates in the next 30-60 days, now that people will be banging on it (see what I did there?)

All I know is that the Authorizations tab in Toontrack Product Manager under EZK1 is no longer present after the upgrade to EZK2, but if you’re looking for an official statement I'd suggest you ask Toontrack.

If you purchased EZK2 as a upgrade to EZK1, then yes, you should expect that an EZK1 authorization is no longer available to you. If you paid full price for EZK2, then you should expect to still have rights to EZK1.

[locrian]

Is it just me, or is the range of dynamics of the Session Grand very narrow?
