Don't forget it's only $41.16 with code GROUP

Stop! Tempt me no further.

I've already uninstalled the RCM but of course could install it again. Dealing with it to try getting a demo gave me enough of a headache today so I'm leery of how the purchase/install/authorize would go.

Still it's very tempting......

It’s less than half the price I paid for it.

[Examigan]

Ah ok. So they just devalued their software then. Great for users though, if you're willing to deal with IKM as a company.

Actually Peter said it was a price error. Took a while to fix and I almost pass it.

IMO the only part of IKM that's worth is T-Racks.

MODO Bass and Hammond B3X are really nice.

I like those and Sampletron.

Yeah I can't resist, I'll go for it first thing in the morning. I assume the GUI is re-sizable? These old eyes need all the help they can get.

[LoveEnigma18]

Yes, (D-50) GUI is re-sizable.

Sorry Eric, I wanted to give you a sale but Roland's corporate shenanigans are just not something I need to deal with right now. If they would just sell a plugin without the need for all the other bloat and crap I'd be in....otherwise they're just losing sales.

No problem, totally understand. After I buy it, I'll put Fantasia pads in all my tracks to make you jealous.

[Uncle E]

It's a crazy cheap way to get as close a d-50 emulation as you're ever going to see, unless The Usual Suspects come along and do a ROM based emulation at some point. I don't have any issues with the rolandcloud auth thing being in the background (mac).

It's not on their roadmap, although Virtual JV has Pizzagogo and a lot of other similar sounds.

Slightly niche, slightly complex deal -- Sonible LEARN:BUNDLE for $19.90.

I got an email from the Collective about the EOL for the Sonible FAST bundle. I bought this from them in 2023 for $40.

The mail was to encourage me to download and activate the plugs before they EOL'ed. No activation after 02/16/2026.

Near the bottom of the email, it offered 90% off, with a personal code, for the Sonible LEARN:BUNDLE. Deadline is 02/28/26. I think this is a new thing, not included in the previous EOL mail they've sent.

I did a quick impulse buy, which reduced the price from $199.00 to $19.90. Pretty much a no-brainer, as the lowest price, historical and current, that I can find elsewhere is $49.

Here's the link to the Collective -- https://collective.focusrite.com/ -- You can log in and to see your products here.

Then download the FAST bundle here -- https://collective.focusrite.com/products/fast-bundle I didn't do this part, since I'm replacing this with the newer bundle. Activation is iLok, and I don't think I ever followed through on that anyhow.

Here's the link to the LEARN:BUNDLE -- https://www.sonible.com/learnbundle/

If you unsubbed to the Collective's mail, you may not have gotten this offer, so you'll likely have to re-sub or contact them.

If you bought the FAST bundle elsewhere, maybe you can get the same deal?

Tried this but it won't allow any purchase (understandably as EOL) and no code offered for the LEARN:BUNDLE.
Anyone got a spare code? I know someone who's new to all this and would really appreciate it. I'd be grateful for a PM as it'll just be snapped up if posted here. Thanks to GreyLion for the original post.

Yes, (D-50) GUI is re-sizable.

Thanks it's a little fuzzy at larger sizes and surprisingly gives a bit of a 2015 quality vibe but it is usable. However it could just be my shite old eyes.

Ha the joke is on you. I just purchased the D-50 from your shop and now I too can use Fantasia which is one of my favorite synths patches of all time and others like Soundtrack and the ubiquitous Digital Native Dance which I've heard in more movies and TV shows from the period than I can remember.

Now I'm going to post a little rant about the RCM itself in the instrument forum......

Honestly, way better than I expected.

ACON Digital Limit free until March 1

https://acondigital.com/blog/get-acon-d ... mited-time

From the instructions:

"Load Limit plugin in your DAW
Click the ‘Redeem’ button which will take you to the Acon website where you will need to either login or create a new account"

This is not working in Live 12 or Bitwig. It crashes Live 12 and in Bitwig causes the plugin to crash.

I'm loading up my old Cubase 12 Pro that I haven't used in a while to try it there but it's been taking over 20 minutes to scan plugins.

[Ou_Tis]

It doesn't work in FL Studio either, but once I finally got Cubase to load (had to restart and choose "disable program preferences"), it worked there.

[satYatunes]

I used Minihost to load and redeem. May be try that but if it's loading and crashing the DAW then you should let the dev know.

I was not able to resize the plugin in Fender Studio Pro 8, it always reverts to 100% immediately. Anyone else facing this issue?

[HM]

I used S1 ver 7 to redeem ,... no problems when following the procedure

Yet another limiter

I'm on S1 V7 and I can't see the "Redeem" button anywhere... Am I blind?
