GRM Tools: Atelier coming soon -

I dont understand how the pricing works- if you are in the EU are you paying 245 + 20% tax?

[Caine123]

yeah very heavy price...

However, if I hit Randomise, either in the player or for the whole plugin it seems to remove the sample. [...] I wondered if there was some lock parameter for the sample but I can't see it and I assumed it only dealt with one sample at a time.

You were on the right track... the parameter to lock is the "Record" button. Once it's locked the sample stays in place.

In Euro it is 199(intro price) + 20%, so ~ 238 Euros. So still really expensive. Kudos to their support because I had to email them to understand the price and they responded instantly. So regular price will be 249 Euros + 20%.

Look, it's a really cool set of tools, but I just think they are being delusional about their price. Like they aren't interested in selling more copies.

That is what they told me but the checkout says the 199 EU price is both the price with and without tax (199 appears twice) - I cant paste the image to show this but in the checkout it says 199 includes 33.17 tax making the tax free price 165.83 EU.

Anyway I am thinking this is not for me, perhaps when they get a few more modules I will have another look but for my use the current GRM tools I have are great and enough to go on with

thanks, I've just found that.

I do find though that when using randomize on the player with no other modules it keeps going silent (not the demo limitation). I can't see what parameter is causing it, I've locked gain but can't find which other parameter is causing the problem. If I try the snapshots they all make a sound.

A number of other things I need to feedback....

Drag and drop of samples doesn't seem to work in the standalone (but does in the VST3).

If you turn on write automation in Cubase Pro it does pick up when you hit randomize for all modules..but it doesn't for individual modules.

Snapshot changes are recorded with write automation - I think that's the same as for GRM Tools 3.

Is there a way to tempo sync Atelier when running as a DAW plugin?

No.

[Caine123]

i somehow expected more polish i dunno, it feels not very thought out e.g. sync to DAW tempo...

I understand that syncing is coming.

So has anyone figured out how to get some GRM Tools licence discount?

No.

That's disappointing

For now any good old pocket calculator does the job.

Maybe it's the individual gain of each playhead going silent? Or the Mix parameter? Try to lock those (select all play heads, right click on Gain in the panel below, Lock)

Hm, I don't see what's wrong; it works flawlessly here. Could you maybe describe in more detail (steps to reproduce) and contact Support?

Yes, for most parameters to be automatable you have to right click > Automate. See this page.
