I like the idea of a pro version as long as there is a cheap upgrade path!

If you do a Pro version one big change should be the resolution of the step sequenecr, it could do with being 32 or 64 beats per bar to get a bit of feel into the sequencer.

You could also add a random velocity function to (eg) vary the level of the high hats.

And (and you might be able to do this for the current version), make the EQ flat in the centre position so you can boost the eq as well as cut it.

this should be small expansion pack with 3 Custom kits and 40+ patterns with ethnic grooves,
mostly African and Arabian in this first pack,

samples of Doumbek (Darabukka), Djembe, Conga, other drums and tambourines,
not many layers, but they sounds nice as you noticed by the MP3s,

so it's not a Library update, meaning to sell this Ethno Pack for about 10 USD, fair?

yes that's all good, Aldo and I are talking about that pro upgrade, planning to work on it after or during the Summer, anyway

More acoustic here too. And I agree to rsmus7, brillantly said, so I don't have to say anything here

. Like DK+ much.

very fair! Recently the top-programs made for all to afford are coming, that's a great thing, liquih. Hope it sells well, as crackers might not dare to even touch programs like yours.

thanks mate,

there will be a DK+ pro with all advanced features, we are thinking about it
But I thought it was a PRO version!!

yeah me too!!!!! if you get a pro version out and leave us there with an unimproved version -well I will think about that the next time I want to buy something from you...

If it is a different product serving a different need, I have no problem with that, but if you split the product and stop improving the dk+ I bought, man.... what got me happy is that you kept improving a product I bought for cheap, giving me a sense of real value. If you leave me in the dust and have a dk+ pro on sale, I am going to be bitter.

I you have a larger number of voice (for exemple) or an extended feature set on the dk+ PRO, but KEEP UPGRADING dk+ in parrallel, that may keep me happy.

But if in one year the dk+ I bought is a shelved product without any updates and you have a more expensive PRO verion that you keep upgrading -then my opinion will be made concerning the "good value" of your products.

On the other hand nothing prevents you from make dk+ more PRO while respecting your current customers, you can even raise the price for new buyers, they will come if the features are there.

It would especially piss me off if the PRO version includes suggestions I made here in this forum and I cannot have access to it. Alll users here try to help you improve the product they bought and benefit from that. That is why I come here and spend the time to evaluate/post suggestions about dk+. Many suggestions I have made were implemented in dk+1.1. Should I make more info available to you if you are going to put those features in another product I won't get????

Anyway I guess I wil have to watch you go, and remember the update money you will get from current users of dk+ may not be the kind of money you want to get, as it is going to cost you your reputation of excellent and affordable product, witch if I where you I would try to keep as long as I can.

I spend enough money as it is to maintain/upgrade hosts, if now every little plug I buy is put out of the developpent cycle and I have to buy it again in upgraded form from the same dev, well I just want to say I am going to select what and from who I buy even more.
