Interesting piece. It reminds me quite strongly of Mainesthai.
thanks!

the name and the people behind Mainestai, were unknown to me, and the music, a bit strange, o well i don't know them all. great find!

ok, that solves it, never a mega sale, when the monthly voucher is active, couldn't find any email about it, strangely.

but well, not always the lowest prices in a mega sale, knif (the happy nickname) is more expensive, than in the lowest sale i saw (and bought).

but for Thorn.... well go for it! quite a special synth, with a great bandwidth of possibilities, and sounds, and the overall sound: great!

i know this is bit 'mean', is this the right phrasing? but Reason's Rack Extensions, well not much development either. mostly they are finished products.

LION did receive some updates, but is a finished product.

so perhaps, it is PA, or it are finished products...

Post

something like byome/triad/lion is never finished imho
there's always a filtertype, another OSC, another granular another etc etc etc to add
lion could make great use of a sidechain input imho
as also byome/triad with midi input
there's always something to add, expand, make faster, wider and so on :-)

no, that is quite a lack of functionality.

only pa does send emals when there are updates, but not always, it seems.

the pa installer also doesn't take care of activations...

the only pre is: installing all your plugins of pa in one go...
I've never had one email front them for updates for any if the plugins I own from them . Turns out I've missed updates.

They did that to me a few months back. My voucher was supposed to be good until the 31st but they started yet another sale before the end of the month and suddenly my voucher was no longer valid before the 31st. :roll:

They always send out an email some time before it expires, there it is said until the end of the month and 26th is mentioned also somewhere. If you don‘t read carefully it can be overseen..
On the other hand we should not be too greedy, the devs need some cash as well. I don‘t mind to pay 30 for Silo and I did…

Post

Well when you mention greedy and Plugin Alliance in the same breath it does generate some irony.

Anyway when they send an e-mail that says your voucher is good until the 31st then just change that at will it leaves a bad taste in one's mouth whether they notify you or not (I do not remember getting such a warning email).

I already own all the PA plugins I want except for two and they're still crazy over priced at the moment so I'll just wait, no hurry. I did buy something in their "flood" sale so have already done my part.

Again, why? It seems like you are making a rod for your own back. If you find being on line a distraction, just turn your wi-fi off while you're working. Personally, I couldn't work without being on line for access to manuals, help/support and other resources that make life easier.

Do you know if there is a hidden screen?
The Softube and Arturia installer for example do this on their own and show a notification.
Sorry, I'm not aware of anything but I'm not big on updates, I normally don't care if I know about them or not.

I have a shi**y wi-fi network where I live, there's not much to remedy this at the moment. I have to haul my laptop all the way to the other side of the house whenever I need access to the internet, so it's not exactly optimal.

Get a powerline adapter or some other net expander…

Yeah, that would be annoying as hell. I can't believe there was a time, just a couple of years ago, when I only turned my modem on when I wanted to access the 'net for a specific purpose. One day I didn't bother turning it off and now I feel like I need to have it on all the time and can't imagine why I didn't always get that.
