EastWest is offering a last chance to receive a free* (*see conditions online at, www.soundsonline-europe.com, on each product page) upgrade to the company's PLAY software version (when available) with a purchase of its current Kompakt/Kontakt powered products, as well as a chance to purchase many bundled products at a discounted price of up to 67%. The deadline for both offers is October 31, 2007 while stocks last.
EastWest's PLAY software, a 64-bit (with 32-bit compatibility) advanced sample engine, allows users to load many more instruments and voices, limited only by the computer's RAM. With the company upgrading most of its products to PLAY, this opportunity enables users to access the added power that PLAY offers at a greatly discounted rate.
The update is available for:
- EastWest/Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra Silver, Gold and Platinum (all three require both standard and XP versions (bundle) to qualify for the upgrade).
- EastWest/Quantum Leap Symphonic Choirs
- Quantum Leap RA
- Quantum Leap Colossus. Colossus will be upgraded to Goliath with approximately 20% more content (there will be an upgrade fee for the additional content).
- Quantum Leap Hardcore Bass XP
Along with the PLAY upgrade, EastWest is also offering significant discounts on its EW/QL Symphonic Orchestra Bundles (Silver, Gold and Platinum, including their corresponding Pro XP upgrades) and Composer Bundle. Users will be able to experience the sonic fidelity of EW/QL Symphonic Orchestra Platinum and Platinum Pro XP for €720 (originally €2,170), Gold and Gold Pro XP for €359 (originally €720), and Silver and Silver Pro XP for €140 (originally €215), while supplies last. The company's Composer Bundle presents users with a comprehensive composition toolkit containing some of EastWest's top-selling collections; EW/QL Symphonic Gold and the Pro XP upgrade, Quantum Leap RA, Quantum Leap Symphonic Choirs, as well as the EW/PMI Bösendorfer 290. Users can now purchase the bundle for €865 (originally €1,725) — 50% off. In addition to the composers bundle, other significantly discounted bundles are available at www.soundsonline-europe.com.
