The upcoming Koda Sampler looks like it could be a major competitor to Kontakt with fantastically awful timing for NI and any assumed ongoing market dominance by Kontakt and related financial maneuvering. I was quite impressed by the Koda NAMM presentation videos, at least.

LinkedMusicians started the topic 🆓 Majetone's FREE Pantomime 4 Synth Plugin in the forum Virtual & Physical Music Gear Deals
I’ve shared in the past how talented I find the developer behind Majetone to be. SOS recently referred to a recent Majtone instrument they reviewed as “genius,” so I feel like a sense of discovery and championing this developer early on (I’ve been posting about Majetone for several years now) now that he is getting greater recognition. Candidly,…Read More

I wonder if any comparisons can be drawn from the Magix insolvency that I believe was filed two years ago? I am not interested enough to dig, and I would be reliant on translation as I don’t speak a word of German. I did find the following recent press release regarding Magix that you can translate via… -

I ~might~ buy Absynth 6 if it went on significant sale, as I was holding out for the next Komplete and subsequent SOS sale but am not feeling confident there will be another even if NI remains afloat to some degree. I fear the pricing and bundling models will change, which will definitely make me intensely less interested in NI products.

Didn’t Magix have to sell off their Samplitude and Seqoia to Boris FX? Not sure about all of their other brands like Vegas and Soundforge.
Not sure which parts NI would sell off to get back to their ‘core’ business.
