Of course it’s ok as I am right.
If you looks at my posts I am not whining because of the price of something I crave, but saying that some tools are useless crap.
Do you see the subtle difference?

There always has to be at least one KVR newbie who quickly becomes the resident obnoxious asshat. Soon after they are struck down another one takes it's place almost instantly. It's a universal law.DJErmac wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 8:40 pmThere’s magic everywhere.papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 8:18 pm
Are you trying to raise a fuss because of boredom? Go make music clown.
I am defending DiscoDSP because they make wonderful synths, and you do nothing, and you complain. Get a life.
How can this guy get away from a ban for life ?![]()

well, no that's just not true, is it? you were agreeing with a complaint about exactly the same scenario; a developer's upgrade policies and pricing. do you need reminded of the specifics?papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 9:25 pm If you looks at my posts I am not whining because of the price of something I crave, but saying that some tools are useless crap.

Let’s say that you have a buchla system and at sone point they say: we upgraded with a larger preset handling and some bingowongo retractor glider, it’s 3400$. Would you start conplaining?

I was more focused on their lack of guidance than their pricing policy. Why are you trying to turn against me? Are you hoping in a chupachups of some sort or what?

Yeah, I actually did that and Don rolled back, admitted it should have gone for $1500. Big laughs all around, because I then told him 'ha! ha! I dont actually have a Buchla system.'papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 9:33 pm Let’s say that you have a buchla system and at sone point they say: we upgraded with a larger preset handling and some bingowongo retractor glider, it’s 3400$.

Let's try this all again. It's obvious by your writing that you are not a native English speaker, and definitely not from the U.S.A.. Our cultures are likely very different. In the culture of the United States of America, there is a strong belief in the ability to speak freely (within reason, of course). As I said before, I am a purchaser of Bliss Sampler, and have never been a huge fan of Discovery Pro's sound. I never liked the Artificial Intelligence assisted responses from DiscoDSP, and I don't feel that there is anything wrong in letting the company know this. Furthermore, I agreed from the beginning that it is George's prerogative to raise his prices. It is also his customer's prerogative to not purchase at that price. I then suggested that users skip a version and only upgrade when they feel that enough development has been done to justify the price of the upgrade. That's what I do. I also admitted that it was my opinion that the various point releases were quite insignificant--remember, I stated it was my opinion. When people brought up George's odd and self-destructive behavior, I mentioned that this has happened many times over the last twenty years. You ask if I think I'm an authority here, to which I will respond with a resounding "No!". But I HAVE been here on KVR about twenty years longer than you, and I just might know a bit more about the history of George's shenanigans from the past. Please understand that I have not called you names or insulted you throughout all of this--I've not even, as you say, "lightly" insulted anyone. There are others here in this (and the previous) thread that believe that I'm been siding too much with George. I was accused of this in the first thread (if it hasn't yet been deleted). The point is, I have tried to express my views, which I feel I have a right to express, without being offensive. I have definitely not blatantly and openly insulted others as you have done. So, this is another attempt to try to return civility to this thread--to keep the peace. I really am interested in DiscoDSP surviving as a company--especially because George supports Linux. However, I still maintain my right to be vocal about issues and problems I find in the business practices and product. I'm definitely concerned about the lack of response from administrators about message deletions in this thread--it appears to be poorly moderated, and one sided, if done by administrators. There wasn't even an explanation as to why it was done. And if it wasn't done by administrators, it definitely sounds like a gross abuse of authority, and I feel that the person who did it should lose the ability to make these modifications to threads. These threads stand as a history of past behavior to not only users, but vendors as well. To end, I mean you no disrespect, but I will also not be openly mistreated--I'll put you in my mute group if I have to. I don't want to, because I think I've only put one person in my mute group in the last 21 years here, but I'll do it if need be. That's about all I have the authority to do, but it is sufficient. So, please, let's be civil to one another.papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 9:13 pm It just make me laugh how some people feel entitled to grumble when something is not how they want.
Let's start over again: Too expensive? Don't buy it.
Sound have changed indeed, You can't hear it? Not for you.
You find that the synth sounds bad? Why do you care?
You think it sounds good and you like it so you want to support the development? Buy it.
You think it's too expensive but you eventually had bought it if it was not? BULLSHIT.

Seeing as you are for this update, rather than against it... care to explain what it is you heard in the 'improvements' to the sound that makes you defend it?papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 9:13 pm Sound have changed indeed, You can't hear it? Not for you.

hmmm, that kinda smells of whiny goblin, though. im sure if it had been someone else in this thread you'd have said so too.papillons wrote: Tue Jan 09, 2024 9:35 pm I was more focused on their lack of guidance than their pricing policy.

Chupa Chups is a Spanish brand of lollipop and confectionery company found in over 150 countries around the world. The brand was founded in 1958 by Enric Bernat, and is currently owned by the Italian-Dutch company Perfetti Van Melle. The name of the brand comes from the Spanish verb chupar, meaning "to suck".

because you'd say so if you were, of course. you're not George, and neither is discoDSP. Its like Spartacus in reverse.
