2 AAS Sound-Instruments FREE with beat 01/25

Cool. Should be another Christmas freebie coming next moth too. Good time to pick one out for that.

Oboy! A|A|S soundpacks are my favorite freebie.

I have so many of their soundpacks already (many if not most of them from freebies over the years) that it’s starting to get tough to find any but the ones for Guitar Strum GS-3 that I don’t already have.

Not that those are useless, at least if you take the time to figure out the articulations. I’ve tried, and even the Swatches ones respond to the same keyswitches as GS-3. To use them all I have to do is look at the Strum Session manual for reference.

Strum is still the only fake guitar that I can so much as tolerate (not that I’ve heard a lot of them). A big stumbling block to getting artificial guitar to sound good is in the chord voicings and articulations, and Strum takes care of those things in a useful way.

I plan on completing my collection this year. Before the Beat freebies, my cost was $94 for 33 sound packs. Now it is $90 for 31 sound packs. Saved me 4 bucks!

Do you use them with Player or with the full synths?

Well, to be honest, I own the full synths except for Multiphonics CV-2 (I own Multiphonics CV) but I mostly use the packs with the Player without doing much tweaking.

I love AAS stuff.  Excellent support too.  In the past I bought Humble Bundles with AAS packs and support kindly allowed me to trade in my dupes for my choice of new packs.  Last year I upgraded to the full bundle, and since the Christmas freebie came when I owned everything, they automatically just gave me the next pack released gratis.  I didn’t have to ask.  It’s those nice people up there in Cananada, eh @Doug?
