JULY4 coupon works here and brings this down to 59.60$

Oops, sorry. I posted this last night half asleep and then literally fell asleep next to my laptop. I’ll add that to the original post so that no one misses it. Thanks for posting that @GoncaloL!

This statement from Ashwin on Bandlab’s subreddit says it all — this is why continuing to use Sonar free is a very bad idea — as you won’t be able to access your project files with Sonar at some point (likely within a year or two):

“We are following the free to use, pay to upgrade model akin to BandLab Studio’s features and this will mostly…Read More

If you haven’t picked up this freebie, UAD just gave you some extra time to get it. It’s a nice synth. You now have until 7/14 to pick it up.

Great find. How are you so good at finding these kinds of deals? It’s like you have radar for them.

You know, it’s been at least a couple of years since I became aware that you and I both battle trying to curb our plugin / sample library addiction. We already know that I’m doing terrible at that. How about you, any better than me?

For anyone who saw a very toxic post that I since removed (it was a clear violation of our site’s policy), it came from a suspended member who created a new account with a fake email address. He was suspended for attacking another member of this community (not me). Before I was certain who it was, I sent him a DM offering that he could redo his…Read More

This feels like one of the better forums to me. I probably visit this site daily and appreciate all the work and sharing from everyone. There’s always room to improve, but I don’t feel anything negative when using this site.

Thanks! It’s appreciated.

This passion project of mine is the first time I’ve eve…Read More

Okay, how about sharing your favorite Orange Tree Samples libraries?

ELECTRIC GUITAR

Evolution Indie Rock
Evolution Rock Standard
Evolution Jazz Archtop
Evolution Stratosphere

ACOUSTIC GUITAR

Evolution Dry Relic
Evolution Songwriter
Evolution Nylon
Evolution Flatpick 6 – this sounds different and really comes alive in mixes, especially when…Read More

I have been contemplating if I should sticky this thread, like I did with NI’s Summer Sale, as a lot of our community members are users of NI Kontakt / Komplete and Orange Tree Samples libraries (including me), and because it’s a group buy, people are watching the number of people currently enrolled, interested to see if their discount has…Read More

@doug The ability to subscribe to any forum or subforum and get email alerts when new comments are posted has been restored. So you can subscribe to the Best Free Kontakt Instruments thread and be alerted when new free Kontakt libraries are added — and I added several really nice ones this week. When I find out about a new free library, I write a…Read More

Thanks for the suggestion, @thesteven. I know that I’ve installed all of Polyverse’s free effects plugins, but I don’t think I’ve really spent any time with them. I will be sure to do that in the near future.

On a related note, I took your recommendation for Filtron and added it to the LinkedMusicians’ list of Best Free Effects Plugins. If you…Read More

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone post anything but positive experiences with AAS, me included. Really nice dev.

Best Service and Plugin Boutique are both carrying the sale, but, Best Service has the lowest prices of them all.  For example, Chomaphone 3 is $99 at AAS and $82.27 at Best Service. Sound Packs are $19 each at AAS and $17 at Best…Read More
