Uncle E, in the Audiomodern sale, is Freezr included with purchase of one of their other plugins? Apologies if I missed any verbiage yea or nay on the site.

Yes, that's on their site. Buy a plugin and you'll get Freezr for free.

Only new purchases qualify for group buys so previously-purchased serials will not qualify for future group buys. It worked that way for the last group buy (and I don't recall how many before that, I believe at least the previous one too). Just in case people are still banking on this, I don't want them to get disappointed when it doesn't work.

Guess I shouldn't be surprised you waited until after the sale was over to mention that.

I think it's a very fair move of him to explain it in the first place. He didn't have to lay out terms of future group buys. Also there are new sales currently running with the biggest sale season just in front of us. Yes, IK is well known for a lot of BS, but in this case, I think we should cut Peter some slack (and in the end, Peter isn't responsible for IK's practices anyway)

So thanks, Peter for chiming in

I don’t know what the f***k the ”week 1” refers, but at the moment this is bull, anyway. The prices are HIGHER, not lower than in the last 12 months average is. Just take a look.

Magma Tube for $19.99 is pretty great. Meh to the rest.

He wanted to let us know that anyone who bought the Sunset Sound studio reverbs thinking they'd also get the Fame studio reverbs (and a few other plugins) for free if they wait until summer to register will not... now that Fame is the next plugin on sale.

Thanks for the heads up. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but the Ozone 11 EQ is showing up in Native Access as a Kontakt library......

NI 110123-1.png

EDIT: Ok I had to manually install Native Access 2. How long has that been out? Seems like I just installed something from the old version just a couple of weeks ago. So Access the update manager can't update itself?

EDIT 2: Ozone 11 EQ hates this system. It it so laggy as to be unusable. Odd thing as neither CPU or GPU meters show any significant load.

To be fair this system is pretty old but it usually handles everything I throw at it to a point. It runs Ozone Elements 9 with no problem. Seems like N.I. is up to some graphics experimenting again. Reminds me of when Replika was first released.

Anyway I'll install it on my studio computer tomorrow. It should run fine there.

Funny, I guess that explains why I haven't received Komplete Kontrol 2. Oh well.

Sorry for a stupid question but what is this Native Access 2 everyone is talking about? I’ve just updated the one I have on my pc, now running version 3.7.0. I haven’t seen a Native Access 2 at the NI site.

Thanks! Never noticed that 2 before.
It looks like it's also in the "About" pop-up. I've just been watching the version number.

[Dumbquestions]

Just released: FabFilter Pro-R2
Included in the relevant bundles, upgrade from Pro-R available.

Do we know yet if this will be included in their typical holiday sale at 25% off

They seem to mix it up a bit, '2' in About but not on the app etc.

Do you have the 'New' tab they mention? I don't seem to (3.7.0) ....

Nope, that confused me also.

Not sure if I like Native Access 2 any better than 1 so far but it works to install the Ozone 11 EQ. It does overwrite version 1 which is why I can't understand why version 1 couldn't automate the process since that is it's entire raison d'être, to make installing and updating things easier.

I'd advise if one doesn't want to install Access2 yet try installing the Ozone EQ from the old version first. It would not on two systems here but it's worth taking a look first.

At any rate I can report the Ozone EQ runs just fine on my studio computer, lightening fast to respond, so there is just something about this system that prevents the EQ from being responsive. (10-15 second lag from moving a control until that control is visually updated). Might have something to do with this system having Intel onboard graphics.
