Element has some balls. Interface blows but dang, it sounds so good.

I like Codex. It's like Element but with wavetables. Most wavetable synths are unabashedly digital, which is great, but Codex embraces the analog aesthetic which distinguishes it from the crowd. Unfortunately, the wavetables can't easily be changed, but what is available is pretty good and has breadth. It's good for creative block situations too. And I agree it's underrated.

Following up on a post in an FB Deals group, you can get the Waves Inspire bundle at a discount if you already have some of the eleven instruments in the bundle. I have the Pianos and Keys bundle, went to my Waves account, checked for upgrades from it, and price was $71. I only wanted the Bass Fingers plug, so I ended up getting that from everyplugin for $24.

8dio has a nice flash sale on Orchestral Shepards ($8 until 10 AM PST on the 23rd)---anyone know what instruments "Plucked" includes in addition to guitars? Harp, mandolin, etc.?

The library essentially contains a bunch of Shepard scale illusions built with samples from acoustic instruments (they also have another Shepard tone library that uses synthesized sounds). One of the components used to create these illusions is called "plucked". These components are not really separated into distinctively different instruments. I couldn't really tell exactly what these instruments are to be honest. There essentially is some plucked stuff mushed together.

This is a niche library, but a very nice one. Very unique. Complements the CASE and CAGE libraries very well. At 8 bucks you can't really go wrong with it imho.

Does anyone here use Waves Bass Fingers? I do like the sound and possibilities it possesses. Just wondering if anyone recommends it enough.

I am getting Codex. Thinking about Flow Motion, but I do have NI FM8 and DX 7 from Arturia VC6. Waves FM sounds great, but I wonder if would really be a worthy addition.

Thanks! Did not have time for demo, got all 3 (Bass Fingers, Flow Motion and Codex) at a fantastic price from audiodeluxe.

Use FEST40 at checkout.
Until the end 'o' the month.
A splendid time is guaranteed for all.

...and for some misterious reason most of the old $29.99 plugins have gone up by ~$20

Only used it on drums so far. There's a handy preset that kind of strips drums back to their attack portion and drains a lot of processing from transients. Useful if for instance you only have a sample of a snare with reverb baked in and you want to use it with a set of otherwise dry drums.

Just a reminder that if you pick up UVI Digital Synsations for free (this week) you'll become eligible for the upgrade pricing on Vintage Vault 2 and you can keep it in your back pocket for when it's on sale again.

Native Instruments are offering special deals on selected Orchestral Tools libraries, similar to last year with up to 63% off bundles. Can anyone remember if the deals were also on sale by other re-sellers?
