I have even participated in the thread
PLASMONIC - A new synth from Brian Clevinger
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=534189
What I have heard has not excited me yet.

Yeah, it's not quite as "immediately appealing" as Absynth with all the features that one has. I did like some of the sounds I heard in the demos.

May 2020 will be a great month with the release of the following
Scaler 2
Unify V1.1
Studio One V5?
And one or two more surprises.
And now that Andy at HG Sounds is feeling better we will see some progress in the Serenity Group Buy.

[Kalamata Kid]

I am adding this what seems to be a great new synth, Vital.
My Guess is that it will be released before August 2020.

Sorry, had added Vital in the previous page.

The race is on who will release first.
These will be phenomenal synths!!!

my current Waiting list for a 2020 release of:

Plasmonic

upgrading to Melodyne 5 studio is definitely on the list once it goes on sale - or maybe even at the current price

Hmmm. Now you have me thinking.

[Kalamata Kid]

Here is my revised list of new version 2020 purchases.
Tomorrow it will be one less as Studio One 5 is released.

Studio One 5. Hey! Out 7-7-20 Hurray
Spectralayers 7. May get SoundForge 14 which includes SL 6/7. On sale till 7-12.
Plasmonic by Brian Klevinger. I like samples manipulation so this may not be a good fit for me but…
Hit and Mix Infinity 5. Well maybe in 2020. Wishful thinking.
Tantra 2. Will get but I am having fun with Output Movement
Liquid Notes 2. Hmmm, this will be interesting.
Vital. The write up sounds great. https://vital.audio/
Architect presets https://www.loomer.co.uk/architect.htm
Cubase 11. Can’t pass up the $36 upgrade and get Padshop 3.
Fathom 3.0
Fathom Vector viewtopic.php?p=7602423#p7602423
If I get the free Reason LE I will likely spend some funds on Players.
Synthmaster 3. $29 upgrade from V2.
Wusik will release several Group Buy synths and effects during 2020 including WusikStation 10 https://www.kvraudio.com/news/wusik-201 ... deal-46364

Other Possible Releases
Chord Creator by Evabeat. https://evabeat.com
Melda will release Sound Factory modules and hope one is Spectral.
Got the HG sounds Serenity Group Buy will release several Kontakt instrument in 2020. There may three Midi fx released. https://hgsounds.com/product/serenity-group-buy/
Currently a big sale: https://hgsounds.com/product-category/kontakt/

In 2021 and beyond I will no longer allow my GAS to dictate my actions.
This time I mean it. Really! No, I am serious.

What's on your list?

[Kalamata Kid]

^^^
Let me add Komplete 13 to my list.
Likely to be release this Sept or Oct.
in y opinion.

The only reason I will upgrade will be if Absynth 6 is included which very highly unlikely.
I have now become more interested in multi-touch plugins which Komplete is not.

2020 will be my most expensive year ever.
This GAS is going to kill me or bankrupt me.

[Kalamata Kid]

These releases are from my point of view of interest.

Major releases likely in 2020:
Fathom 3.0 to be released on 8-10-20
Buy before the V3 release and get these benefits:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=482501&start=4710

Cubase 11 Will the mixer have multi-touch capability and a modular environment like FLS Patcher or better yet like Logic's Environment.
FL Studio 21 Will it have ARA integration?
Hollyhock 5 will it also be available as a VSTi?
Mulab 9 Will it have ARA integration and multi-touch capability?

Studio One 5 and Samplitude X5 already have been released.

I wonder what new software might be released
at the NAMM January 16, 2020.

Maybe something new by Spectrasonics....

[Kalamata Kid]

I wonder what new software might be released
at the NAMM January 21–24, 2021.

AI Covid detector by Fabfilter.
Sidechain Lockdown by Eventide.

[Kalamata Kid]

Made some major decisions on which plugins to get and which to hold off getting. The main reason for not getting some is that I already have too many plugins. Secondly I often can buy excellent plugins at ridiculously low prices. Sometimes they are plugins that are on top of my to get list.

I am more into sample based plugins and midi and audio fx especially multi-fx.

Vital. Looks and sounds great but even at $80 will pass this up this year.
Plasmonic. Undecided. Brian is planning on developing more plugins. The Sample mangler will be one to watch out for in late 2021?

I may get Pigments 2 if ever under $85.
I have Fathom but will not get the Fathom Vector. Close call here.

Pianoteq 7. Will pass this up as I already have some great sounding sampled pianos.

If Tantra 2 is released with intro pricing I will likely buy it.

I passed up Komplete 13 and will like not get another Komplete unless there is some compelling reason.

Got Architect so now debating if any of the Reason Rack Players will be worth getting.

Got Unify and am looking forward working with it.
Had paid to WusikStation 10 and so I am anxiously looking forward to its release.
Looking forward to a speedy recovery of Andy at HGSounds and to working with planned Group Buy release of his midi software.

My gas has deflated a bit. The no-brainer deals will motivate me to buy.
