Any nods or takers on this Drumdrops kit? With this one you can choose either Kontakt or BFD for £10. I just checked out a few minutes ago, and it said around 650 left. Also, I got redirected to a blank screen after I submitted PayPal payment, but the order went through.

Thanks for the heads up
I really like the DrumDrops kits, but have always missed out on getting the Kontakt versions at the nice price (part and parcel of being in a different time zone!)

I didn't know that, but no matter, I have it now!

Any love for Sonokinetic's offer on Sotto?

Already have it or I would get it. Has some very nice phrases that fill out the quieter or lighter sections that you don't get from Grosso or Capriccio. And, depending on the music you write, it might work better than the others.

There is not much I would NOT jump on from Sonokinetic. Sotto is brilliant! In fact, I have all of their phrase libraries now and they are perfect for passages that demand the real thing. I use them in so many projects. Sotto is softer and gentle for those softer pieces. It can serve as a glue for some sections.

DaCapo, Woodwinds, and Tutti Vox are really the only things missing from my library...and for the most part, I have that covered.

To those who buy humblebundle, I found the full installers are downloaded to documents/MAGIX download. Might want to backup that.

Thanks! That is the impression I also get from the video walkthroughs. Somehow the Sotto phrases seem to click with me better than the others. I immediately had ideas on how to use them creatively in my music.

I picked up Capriccio and Minimal last year. Looks like it‘s going to be Maximo and Sotto this year. I could not relate as much to Grosso and did not want to blow up my budget but that gives me something to look forward to for next year.

Waves WLM Plus gets an unprecedented flashing price tag of $29 (usualy: 399!)
It's an industry standard compliant loudness meter full of facilities and good looking.

Use YNY23 for the discount code. I've been waiting for this for a long time, Christmas has come early for me!

I bought enough last year that this year is turning out to be cheaper than I expected. Out of the phrase libraries, I only really want Vivace and Expressivo still. And it will probably be whichever is on sale first and I will hit my limit. I initially wanted Grosso and/or Maximo, because sometimes you just want loud.

Edit: And Mallets. I really would like Mallets!

But this year has been cheaper for me, so I have some extra spending money. I had some unexpected extra cash last year and I think there were better sales too. So this year was a, "I've already got that or something like that" year. And $1 for Anthology XI. So more for Sonokinetic.

And $1 for Anthology XI.

I didn't know about that until now - excellent upgrade policy from Eventide, I love those guys!

Thanks for the tip!

I can confirm this Vintage effects issue (WIn 10).

BTW, the Vintage effects sound surprisingly good.

Cant help but wondering how can you tell when they don't process audio until activated???

Humble bundle replied that I should contact Magix.
Magix replied earlier today:
"The MAGIX Vintage Effects Suite is registered and activated using a Magix Pro Audio account. This is separate from your standard Magix account.
You can create/login to your Pro Audio account via the link below:
https://www.magix.com/ap/mandants/servi ... de&lang=en
To circumnavigate any activation issues, please log into the Pro Audio account and manually register your serial number (by selecting the option 'Register Product'). "

Done per instructions, activated in there but same issue with vsts, nothing changed.
If someone else is having similar problems (I think Im not alone) contact them.

I tried all suggestions mentioned after my initial comment, thanks guys. It didn't work but at least I know that I tried

"Cant help but wondering how can you tell when they don't process audio until activated???"

For me the VIntage Effects installation succeeded, but the registration to my Magix account didn´t.
That´s why. I undestood the other reports referred to the same issue.
What does it mean, that the registration did not succeeded - I don´t know, but in any case after the installation I the plugin opened in my DAW. If its in the demo mode, I don´t know.
I will try your link.

Uncle E, are you going to have Waves WLM for $29(ish)? Would love to buy it from you.

[Kalamata Kid]

Did Guitar Center have their no-brainer this year.
In January 1, 2017 they had two phenomenal deals.
Again in 2018 or in the remaining days of 2017?
