Thanks @locrian

The upgrade price for SV Pro 1 owners ($39) is lower than I expected, and although not obvious, you can also upgrade your existing voicebanks.

If you log in to your Dreamtonics account and scroll through a few pages you will eventually find this (looks like it is $19 per voicebank).

It’s gone up to $94 today even though the offer ($77) is supposed to be extended until end February.

Go figure!

Thanks @bluecat – looks interesting. Also tempted especially at half price.

Here’s another review I found…

Objeq Delay owners should have a $39 crossgrade offer available in their accounts.  Mine does.  Tempted.

Tangled roots perplex her ways.

Same for me and I’m also tempted.

I only need this and String Studio VS-3 to complete my Professional Series collection. So, if I get this now, I’m hoping t…Read More

It shows as ~10% CPU and up to 15% GPU usage on my Ryzen 5800X based system, but the power usage in Task Manager shows as “Very High”. Hopefully there’ll be a new update soon 😉

I also had the following updates:

Hammond B3X

What’s New in Hammond B-3X 1.3.5

Improved startup time

Added support for Hammond SK Pro series models

One big caveat to anyone before buying this: the software developer, Magix, recently filed for insolvency and is in a state of bankruptcy. Consequently, there’s a serious chance that the company will go under and these products will not have support or updates in the future.

Your friend who keeps the b…

@superabbit and @bluescat

I watched the v3 video and was able to follow along and replicate most of what was done using v2. It was only the last 30 seconds or so where they cover some new functionality such as the note editor and polyrhythm generator.

This video is perhaps a more thorough explanation of the…Read More

Thanks!

I didn’t see the File Menu in the center, just the one on the left.

No problem; it took me a while to find it!

TBH the whole UI could do with a makeover.

@locrian

If you go to the File menu at the top, then select View Size you have the choice of 75%, 100%, 125%, 150% and 200%.

I have mine set to 150% for my 3440 x 1440 monitor.

@peter

Spot on! 🙂

Monday’s deal is Monster MIDI Packs 1-4 @$9 ea.  Anyone comment?  Odd meters looks interesting.

Hi Brian, I have the odd meters pack 2, but have only used occasionally. Worth it for 9 bucks though.

You get Straight and Swing options for 5/4, 6/8, and 7/8 time signatures and straight only for 9/8 and 11/…Read More

Thanks @frank

Wow, I can’t remember the last Massive update! Good that it has a scalable interface now though (although I haven’t used it for ages).

@peter You would only get updates up to the version available when your WUP ran out.

For example, I have Platinum but can only access the old GUIs for the above plugins because my WUP for it ran out while it was on v14. I would need to renew coverage (WUP) or buy an upgrade to access the new GUIs. The plugins still work fine though just on the old GUI.

@mustakatu Yeah I have watched some of his other livestreams, but not seen one before with Chord Generator and Harmony Bloom which is why I mentioned it.

I didn’t manage to catch it live but I will try and watch it today.

Mario has a livestream today in which he is using Chord Generator and Harmony Bloom together.

Should be fun! ….

Exciting news! Chord Generator by Marionieto World has just landed in the Audio Plugin Deals shop, and we’ve got a special treat for you as a valued APD customer and Harmony Bloom MINI owner.

You can grab this incredible MIDI tool for only $24 (regularly $29) with your excl…

Thanks @frank

I also had large updates to Eagle, Raven and Skylab. Not sure what’s changed but I don’t check SDA very often so they may have been there a while.

Thanks @doug, I never noticed that before (the @bluescat in Brian’s post).

@ Nice! Thanks @lamia6
