The Sound Board

My observations do not match the general thought that great innovation (in technology) do pay off and are the main reason for companies thriving. That is just one of the myths that the current system keeps spreading in order to justify itself.

It could also be a waste of time, as I recently got EDU-status from OT. I suspect that this combination (EDU and intro price) was not programmed into the logic of the voucher. It is just a guess, though ...

I suppose that was just a glitch in their algorithm. I got lucky, I guess ...

The library is awesome. It is really fun to play though those patches and all the time I kept thinking how useful these patches can be for all kinds of different orchestral music.

I just checked the voucher with my purchase of Volume 5 of MA. To my surprise, it worked with that purchase! Maybe a glitch in their system, but it cannot be wrong just testing it. With that and all the other discount, I paid barely 150€ including VAT (19% for me in Germany).

Merry Christmas!

Yeah, the name is somewhat dry ... but I actually prefer having a collection of really useful patches for orchestral mockups with a dry name over some esoteric collection of sounds with very fancy names. ;) Besides the dry name I think OT has done very "well" in catching up with the bullsh...

They seem to have missed to edit something out in the very last seconds of the second video. Another very rushed release!

Library and the first walkthoughs (solos 1) are up already:

This sounds pretty good to me at a first glance! Very classical sound, but not to clinical.

I could very well imagine buying the update for a lower price. 100 bucks is just to much considering what I payed already (including previous upgrades) and the price of the full product now. After all, it is just a complex Kontakt script wich was developed for other products. That should (in my mind...

Since have a surround setup it keeps suprising me how many developers still do not support multichannel formats! With Fab Filter, only their EQ, Reverb and Limiter already support it. Especially with Timeless, that is quite a loss ... however, at least they state in their forum that supporting multi...

Some of the bundles are 60% on the 2nd link.

Oh, right! I think my eye sight is deteriorating ... I missed something!

up to 60%

Thanks, guys! I couldn't resist and got timeless, too. The video presentation was just to damn sexy! :-)

Up to 60% off at Cinesamples https://cinesamples.com/productGroup/on-sale/ ...and I think there are discounted bundles here not in the sale page above: https://cinesamples.com/category/orchestra The funny thing is, I see the 60% off banner on there index page, but all prices are 50% off.

Dang - the upgrade is even cheaper now, $249 today on Black Friday. Curses. Yup! Typical East West move! :P TBH, I have been expecting that now and that is why I held off. Now I am gonna do it. But why they charge you the same for owning any ONE of the 4 collections in the past or owning the full p...

Thanks, Piet! In case anyone else with more Fab Filter plugins has some recommendations, I am all ears. I just like their UI and I am also fond of using similar UIs on different kinds of plugins. Makes it more intuitive. That is why I am tempted to get more from them, although - as you said it - I a...

With the BF additional update I will probably get this and add the Saturn 2 update. I am undecided wether to add further plugins.

I have:
FabFilter Pro-Q 3
FabFilter Pro-C 2
FabFilter Pro-MB
FabFilter Pro-L 2
FabFilter Pro-R
FabFilter Saturn (1)

Are there any other Fab Filter plugins you recommend?

$99 seems a bit steep to me considering I already have all of that sample content and considering the lowered price for new customers. Also, I wouldn't use most of the features the software provides. It is probably a pass for me, as well. I am considering depending on other users feedback on the UI ...

I've got XO as per Guy and Geoff's reactions and holy cow. It's literally the combination of the best sample browser I've ever seen and one of the best rhythm machines I've ever tried. Please, grab this one. I'm also very happy that it loads Ogg files, not just usual wav/aif. I also got XO (plus so...

I complained about the SM to AM saxes cross grade price for YEARS. They finally caved and offered a reasonable price (it wasn’t nothing, it was around $100 I think.) I don’t do a lot of that, but sometimes it just feels unfair. I understood that they had split into two companies but it was essentia...

Ok, here is a special one: Audiomdeling gives you a Voucher for (persistent) complaining. As I made it obvious in another thread here, I was not happy with the upgrade prices for AM instruments. When I feel like that, I usually tell the developer. He tried to convince me, their prices were good - th...

Unfortunately, 33% off is only valid for iPad versions. Full versions only 20% off and no discount on any upgrades.

Audio-Ollie: up to 40% off ... LA Modern Percussion and Nashville Scoring Strings each $199 - about 33% off. Not sure wether this is a good price compared to earlier sales, but it sounds reasonable to me for what these libraries offer.

I rather thought this was a depiction of a greek helmet and vessel. Now that you say Viking, I think you are right. The mountains in the background look Norwegian and the vessel could be, too.

But wether it's meant to be viking or greek, in both cases it is pretty far from a Viola da Gamba.

A little OT, but looking at the new Cinesamples website ... this would probably the last picture that came to my mind to offer a Viola da Gamba.



Americans ... pffff!
