Count me in. Already was on my way to a financially "eat only crackers for Christmas" situation BEFORE I saw this group buy. Guess what? Now I WILL only eat crackers for Christmas, although while playing alchemy! Got the three soundbanks as well. Hope they are a ok.

First comment btw. Hi KVR!

I'm in. I don't see any reason not to. Alchemy is sweet-ass, sold by awesome people, at a ridiculous price. I may come back for Camel Space and/or Phat--we'll have to see.

I would love to see some real-instrument soundbanks for Alchemy in the future. I know it kind of lends itself towards crazy synth sounds, but a nice bank of plain pianos, guitar, basses, etc. would provide a great starting place for more awesome sound design. Just my 2 cents. I'm happy either way. I am sampling the crap out of my JV-1080 anyway, so I'm all set.

Thanks Camel! (Now to just wait for the purchase link...)

Cant wait to get the links to the extra Alchemy stuff and start messing about with these new samples.
Also probably going to get Camelphat and maybe space.
Although I do have Audiodamage's Bigseq2 so it looks like I might be covered for what Camelspace does, or am I missing something?

Camelspace and BigSeq are actually quite different. Big Seq is a 'rhythmic gate step sequencer' with various fx types that interact with the steps, while the gate/sequencer is just one component of Camelspace. It also has a delay, reverb, flanger and auto pan that are not all linked to the sequencer as with Big Seq. They are both indispensable as far as I am concerned.

Thanks for the great group buy Camel Audio! I dont think I'll be able to get Alchemy at this time, but will be picking up at least a sound pack for Absynth in order to participate and support the group buy (already have and LOVE camelspace & camelphat!) I was wondering though, are the additional Alchemy patches from this group buy ONLY available to alchemy users, or are they available to all group buy participants? I ask because I do see myself getting Alchemy eventually, and as a participant in the group buy would love to have access to these additional sounds and presets.

Thanks again for the great group buy! If I would have known about the video tutorials sooner I would have participated in that as well! Great promotions + great products = supper-great company!!

One week left.

C'mon.

Indulge.

Get yourself an early Christmas present.

Black Friday has got absolutely nothing on this....I don't care how many Plasma TV's you can buy for 400 bucks.

We will post answers to recent questions soon, in the meantime our Camel friends journey is progressing well:

Thanks very much to all those who have signed up!


All the bonuses will be available to everyone who owns Alchemy. So regardless of whether you've purchased Alchemy before the group buy, during the group buy or purchase it after, then you will get access to all the goodies. Naturally these things will not be accessible to those who do not own Alchemy. Here's a list of the bonuses:

Points : Bonus
75 : Free Alchemy Sounds: Choirs, Basses & Keys - 700MB samples + 30 presets
400 : Free Alchemy Sounds: Viral Infection - Nuceleus Soundlabs - 1GB samples + 30 presets
800 : Free Alchemy Sounds: Extra 90 presets
1500 : Free Alchemy Tutorial Videos: 40 Mins Of New, High Quality Tutorials
2500 : 50% Off Soundbank Coupon - applicable to upcoming soundbanks <- Current Level
4000 : Alchemy Sounds Mystery Bonus - additional high quality samples and presets

Edit - actually, the one exception is the 50% Off coupon - that may not apply to those people who purchase Alchemy after this month.

Ben, do you or have you considered offering for a small fee a DVD or CDR option for those with slower internet connections? I've got broadband so no problem here but I can imagine someone on dial up might be interested. I don't know how large the main Alchemy download is but I'm counting about 2 gigs just with the extras. Might save on bandwidth as well.


I'm going on a hunger strike until I get my Alchemy. I won't eat until then.....................or lunchtime whichever comes first..........

only you guys would know how the sales are going in terms of time period etc , but would it not work out better for you to extend the group buy by a week or so??

just a thought.....purely out of self interest, 'cause i'm trying to guess what bonuses we would be getting at the 10,000 mark

Added Camelphat and Camelspace as well

Now, I went to the "sign up" screen and added just these two this time. Is this the correct way to do it, having already signed up for alchemy and the three soundbanks earlier?

Hi,

Thanks for your support

Survey Monkey will take care of everything, if your previous choices were not displayed when you re-visited the page you will have created a new entry with your new choices, and your original choices will be preserved with your first entry. If you are really concerned that your selections are not recorded, please e-mail us via support@camelaudio.com and we can check for you.

@ebow - 10,000 points. Wow. The Camels mind is well and truly blown

@Teksonik - thanks for your suggestion ... we receive surprisingly few requests for a DVD version of Alchemy, maybe one a month! I reckon you will be able to eat today, but no promises

Peace,
Andy.

Was that before the Group Buy stampede started?

At the risk of sounding stupid, but I do not receive a mail with a purchase link. Also there's no discounted version available from my user account, so forgive my asking - How does this work?
