Hi Uncle E, I'm interested in LRS Acoustic Dream, do you know if it will work having only the TH-U RockGuy Pack?

[maldomusica]

Does anyone know if Soundwide Intro Bundle can be split? Do you get separate serial numbers for everything? I imagine that to be the case, but just want to make sure.

I think yes... I want to buy, send me a DM

Sorry to say, it won't work. It only works with these:

TH-U Premium
TH-U Rock
TH-U Metal
TH-U Funk and R&B
TH-U Slate Edition
TH-U Mobile
TH-U 60's Pack
TH-U SuperCabinet

Thanks for your reply Uncle E, I asked because I read on the overloud website this statement "This Rig Library can be loaded into any edition of TH-U which includes the Rig Player." and I do see a rig player inside the RockGuy installed software
In fact, looking at the RockGuy description there's this statement: "TH-U RockGuy is both a TH-U expansion pack and a Standalone plugin, meaning that it can expand the model list of an existing TH-U installation, or it can also be purchased as self-contained pack which includes all the TH-U editing features, including the Rig Player, the Amp Tweaks, the Tuner and the Looper, with no need to have a pre-existing TH-U license."

Free Downloads of various Kontakt libraries by Muze (Limited Time):

https://www.muze.shop/link/_free_list.html
An almost 4 GB Upright Bass(!),
10 GB Analog Synths/Pads
almost 5GB electronic drums
2 GB Analog/Digital Basses
21 GB Piano

Thanks for the heads up but when I click the downloads they all say "demo". For example the free drums say 4.75 gigs but the actual download is 346 megs (which unzips to 496 megs). Am I missing something?

On the download page: https://www.muze.shop/link/_free_after_email_jume.html , it seems the zip files that contain the "demo" tag in their names are, in fact, demos...
Still, those five links at the bottom, with the "free" tag instead the "demo", are full products . These are:
- Muze Bass Elements https://www.muze.shop/_free_Jume/Muze_B ... s_Free.zip is 1.2GB (of 2GB in the description, assumed uncompressed)
- Muze Upright Bass https://www.muze.shop/_free_Jume/Muze_Upright_Bass.zip is 2.8GB (of 3.8GB in the description)
- Muze Dyonisus Piano https://www.muze.shop/_free_Jume/Muze_PA_Dionysus.zip is 7.55GB (of 21 in the description)
- Muze Effects Free https://www.muze.shop/_free_Jume/Muze_Effects.zip is 4.65GB (of 5GB in the description)
- Muze Aquamarine Free https://www.muze.shop/files/products/_f ... a_Lite.zip is 5.84GB (of 10GB in the description). Here, however, the file name contains the "lite" tag, so it may not be what you expect, as well.

It seems the Muze Drums Free is mentioned as a free product on https://www.muze.shop/link/_free_list.html , but its version ready for free download is only a demo.

Worth noting that Muze libraries have gotten pretty scathing reviews around here in the past... poor instrument design (eg. no round-robins, one velocity layer), samples left untrimmed so the overall size is far bigger than it should be, possibly reselling public-domain samples... may or may not be worth the time to download even for free.

Good to know! Personally it was the free upright bass that I wanted to download and try out. That is why I shared the link to the other free Muze stuff in the bargain center.

Thanks for confirming. The Muze site is very misleading:

Muze Drums.png

Yet there is only a Demo download with about 496 megs of content not 4.75 gigs as shown.

I downloaded it anyway and it's incredibly wonky in Kontakt with an odd and often unpredictable triggering method.
The good thing is the samples are in .wav format and there are a few nice ones so they could be used in your drum sampler of choice so not a total loss.

I downloaded the free Aquamarine Lite package which is 6.1 gigs zipped but even with that all I could find is two .nki files. The installation instructions are confusing "Unzip the Snapshots folder then move the zipped folder to....". I'm going to spend more time with it today and see if I can figure out what's going on. If not the whole package will get deleted.

Not a very favorable first impression for Muze here. I appreciate their generosity but things just seem really wonky and misleading.

Has anyone gotten Gig Performer 4 Unlocked via PA's Forever29 plan? The wording of Forever29 is disappointingly fuzzy... it says you can get "ANY 1 of our PA plugins", but it's not instantly clear what makes something part of "our PA"... and also Gig Performer isn't a "plugin", it's standalone. I did figure out that PA_EXT sales don't qualify for Forever29 because those are not Plugin Alliance brands, so fine. Gig Performer is one of PA's brands, though... but Gig Performer 4 Unlocked isn't in the MEGA Bundle, for instance (only Gig Performer 4 PA Edition is).

In the huge Plugin Alliance Gearspace thread someone mentioned it wasn't included in that deal as it was not counted as a plugin, they had asked and received a reply.

I see! I’ll ask our Overloud rep.

aren’t all marketing reps overloud?
