Today customer care got back to me via an email: "Since you own half the products in Creative Bundle, I’d like to offer you a 50% discount on your Creative Bundle purchase.".
Wow! You must have mojo that I don't. I did the same thing, probably at the same time, except I own VocalSynth, Trash 2 Expanded, Iris 2, AND DDLY. They only gave me a 20% coupon (which I haven't used, of course). I think another email is in their future....

I emailed on Saturday morning as well on a discount crossgrade due to owning music production suite, iris 2, and I got offered 10% off. At least they like you 100% more than me to give you 20%. Ha! I’ll wait to see upgrade pricing alone for vocal synth 2 or just use 16% group discount on Jrr.

Ozone Maximizer is a CPU hog. If you leave it off or use the other individual components, it's as light as anything else.

I was just thinking of getting the bundle for Vocal Synth.

In that case, just wait to see the deals that come out when it's released. You won't be losing anything because the deals that are happening now will still be happening then, plus there will be a few new ones that may appeal to you more. The VocalSynth 2 Upgrade from MPS will be quite a good deal.

No, no, no. It's Massive XTrEEEEEEEEEEEEEm. The step modulator will be locked to the guitar riff of Song 2.

I find that far more likely! But I would have preferred Massive XXX.

What’s more puzzling is that Session Strings 2 isn’t even out yet or officially announced. Being a product made by e-instruments it is completely independent of the Komplete update cycle. There’s a newer version of Session Strings with new features available in the Reason IDT format for example. It’s possible that NI has bought an exclusive license for SS2, but who knows.

I promised myself I wouldn't buy another Waves plugin ever again, but this is surely tempting...

If anyone is looking for some high quality drum midi, OddGrooves is having a 10th anniversary sale right now. I posted the details in the Deals/No Chat forum.

I think I am getting this It looks very good. I have a few including miroslav but I never got into. And NI stuff never seemed natural. I Just upgraded to full version of Miroslav 2 though with the new total studio 2 max but I heard good things about kirkhunter and $75 is a steal. Though that Cinemorphx looks tempting. Just gotta find someone to buy my vertigo VSM3 and I can get that too

Oh yeah and I emailed izotope about the new vocal synth 2 upgrade. They were quick to respond and I am very happy with their response . They are just doing it based on what you own and what not so it's not arbitrary needless to say I am very pleased. Thanks Guys!!!!

definitly disagree, ozone and neutron are cpu hog at any stage.

the dynamic band on the eq are barely usable, all component use more resource than their counterpart with other manufacturer..

and the gui are laggy, and the automation parameters are a mess (a litteraly named dirtyflag event occurs on each param move)

those guy have good ears but don't know how to code.

As soon as I spoke then Session Strings 2 is out!

Do any resellers sell Komplete Select and accept the Waves half price code?

Native Intruments told me we can sell 1 at that price just to price match Waves but no more than that.

gunark · Post by **gunark** » Tue May 15, 2018 9:30 pm

No worries. I did look but found nobody so I went with NI as the price was ok and the offer period wasn’t clear.

Bargain Center: discussion, gossip, etc.
