Thanks! I will ask!

[Tappistry]

is there a crossgrade from Tantra & Thorn to Diversion?

I’d also be interested in this as well. Some kind of loyalty discount to pick up either of the synths after Tantra ...

Or maybe just wait for VSTBuzz to run sales on them again?

fwiw, pluginboutique are doing a crossgrade from tantra to thorn that's £10/$10 less than buying without already owning tantra, so the mechanism is out there:

Yes, we know. That crossgrade is exactly what brought up this line of discussion. Someone posted it on the previous page.

I'm having a weird day today - I swear I checked back a few pages before I posted and didn't see anything.

You can still get Wusik P2000 at a reduced price, only $ 49.95 USD. A great tool for multiple things, including 32 bits bridge, Wave Sequencing and many other options.

Watch the Video for the new Plugin Sequencing (aka Wave Sequencer)

Who was the guy who gets teased about having GAS for ethnic winds?

It’s like people are listening.

My guess is there might be another sale like that to grab Diversion around the holidays as well.

@soundsbyLaura has a thing for ethnic winds, if I'm not mistaken. Though she probably has all of these....

Question for Pianoteq Pro users: do you hear a difference when using it at the sample rates higher than 48kHz?

It's not for hearing it.
1) Generating something in the upper freqs can be beneficial if you're into processing, particularly stretching. But...
2) The absolute best advantage is going to be the latency. If CPU keeps up, the decreased latency you could get from higher samplerates is going to be huge in terms of ms figures. In terms of you feeling it — that's another question. So, picky performers who're not short on money should definitely consider that.

As an addition, you could speculate that built-in processing like compression would work differently (better?) with this "upsampling space" available to them.

And, of course, the ability of note-by-note customization. That’s what makes Pianoteq Pro stand out for me.

Thank you! That's very helpful!

I think this is an example of "bargain bluff" - after listening all the instrument demos carefully, I noticed many of those included to the bundle are not very interesting sounding, comparing what I already own. Overall quality is good, but I don't need overlapping winds in my collection.
So, the pricing says 'list price for each of the instrument is $ 99".
OK, I' m ready to buy one of the instruments for that list price, using my Audio Plugin credits, which I have massive amount.
The Audio Plugin rules say, that you can use the credits only for the list-priced items. OK, that has led to the situation, that I have plenty of unused credits. One could imagine, that this was now the occasion, where I could use some of my credits by buying in list price.

But no, that is not possible. Audio Plugins so called "deals" and the rules for the use of "credits" stink rotten, in my opinion. You really can never use your "credits" in the way, which made some sense from the buyers point of view.
