Showing as €99.99 for me Aidan.  You can also use up to 15% Jampoints to bring the price down.

That brings it down to around 86 GBP inc VAT for me.

Still too much for me though; I'll wait until it's in a sale.

Yip @ZincT .. its €122 for me as VAT @23% added here in Ireland. So even with the €15 jampoints its still bit too saucy for me also. Will wait too

Pricey for something that is basically a preset.  That's always the case when an artist name is attached to it.

While this set doesn't appeal to me 25 tone models is 35+ hours of work/time easily if you are tweaking and testing plus advanced capture process.  

Plus the studio time cost and gear used to profile it add up and start making the cost seem more reasonable.  I'm sure the artist also needed to be paid or get a percentage of sales.  

It also isn't exactly a preset in the traditional sense.  You cannot replicate the tone and the feel of these by tweaking the knobs of things that it comes with.  It is adding tones that don't exist with the stock unit.  

This one is too expensive for the value I see in it, but when they get around to profiling some legitimate holy Grails like the dumble pack the cost isn't as crazy.

Is it included in the Total Studio Max or Tonex Max ?

This is a good question. From what I have seen as a consumer, once IK come out with products, the contents of those specific versions are fixed--new products that come out after are not added.  I have seen in recent years, some V. 2 products that have been expanded to include new products.

I don't use Tonex, so I defer to those who do to clarify if the Tonex line follows the pattern I've seen.

I tend to use the Versions tab and the compare button to tell me what a product includes or not.  Also, since I am more interested in synths, I made a spreadsheet (updated often) for IK's synths and libraries.  So, when they came out with Sampletank 4 Max V.2 I added those in a column so I could track what I had based on earlier Total Studio bundles and other IK synth purchases.
