Sizone posted:Would I regret it if I only crossgraded to komplete 10 instead of komplete ultimate? My regret when I did this with 9 was that I had to spend an evening installing and swapping the dozen or so DVDs that contain the regular edition of the software, I think ultimate comes on an external HDD so you'll save yourself a bunch of hassle when initially loading it (and potentially reinstalling later on). As far as content there's a couple of things in ultimate that would be nice to own but really I haven't even made a big dent in everything given to me in the standard version. It's way cheaper than buying it all piecemeal though so if there's even a few things you are eying off in ultimate then go that way if you can afford it.

Sizone posted:Would I regret it if I only crossgraded to komplete 10 instead of komplete ultimate? I'd look through the comparison chart between the two packages and see if there are enough extra instruments/effects/whatever in Ultimate that you'd buy in addition to the ones in regular Komplete to make upgrading worth it. When I did this, the only thing I really wanted that wasn't in the normal package was Razor, so I just bought that when it went on sale. edit: installing off the DVDs does suck but it doesn't 100s of dollars suck.

I'm vaguely aware what steam is, but I've never seen it in person. e: I do play games casually, but they're generally 25-30 years old. e2: That all probably makes me sound like some sort of dick with a point to make. The idea is that I can get by with a laptop easily because of that, end of story. Flipperwaldt fucked around with this message at 00:33 on Jun 28, 2015 |

Also, I'm disappointed that there's no discounts on komplete on jrrshop anymore.

After you register the product (i.e. after you install it) then you can just download the isos from their website for free. It installed way faster the second time. n.ed: with 9, anyway. Maybe 10 is just a digital download? That'd be way better.

Weird, the Komplete installer executable downloads .isos of all the products into a temp directory. Good thing too because the automated installer process keeps loving up on me.

So it doesn't look like it's possible to do what I want with abletons drum rack. I have the "Last rack you'll ever need" with the setup to essentially browse through all of your drum hits in their own sections by linking the select feature in zone to a macro. It's great, but I have one major gripe. I can't have a "Master" sample select, or any other button. I'd like a single knob to control the macro on whatever current pad is selected. Basically I want a sample select knob, a tune knob, a decay knob, and maybe a few others, but with the ability to only affect the last hit drum part. Any good MPC mimicking vsts that would do something similar? Preferably free philkop fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Jun 28, 2015 |

Live can assign more than one thing to any macro. You could set up the macro dials in your drum rack to map to every slot's tune, or decay, or whatever. That way, it's functionally identical to a master, albeit with a more involved setup, which you'd only do that once. Only affecting the last used hit is a different beast, though.

Yeah, but they would all tune at once. I can't for the life of me figure out away around this. There's got to be something. E: poo poo, maybe I can map an on/off for the said macros alongside each drum hit

I use a desktop hackintosh and deliberately omitted an optical drive when I built the computer two years ago. Since that time Komplete has been the only piece of software to have necessitated such a drive. I would totally have bought a digital-only version, but it's kind of cool owning a fat box of software with a binder full of discs, you just don't see that sort of thing anymore with anything still offered as physical media coming in a slim dvd case.

I'm feeling some pretty hard buyers remorse over komplete. The only thing in the package that I didn't already have that handles alternative tunings with a minimum of fuss is absynth. I guess you can do microtunings with kontact, but it requires learning its drat scripting language and I'm still not sure knotact 5 can support scales that have more or fewer than 12 tones. Shoulda just stuck with Reaktor.

I'm not a huge gamer but I play steam games on my MacBook Pro and it works fine? It can handle Crusader Kings 2 and the odd indie game so that's good enough for me. And yeah external CD/DVD drives are easy to get and dirt cheap so that's really not something to worry about in the next 5-10 years or so I have not owned a desktop computer in almost 10 years now and I do not miss it at all

I was looking into some of Applied Acoustics Systems' plugins, and apparently there's a up to 50% off action that ends July 31, 2015. Acoustic modeling sounds loving great. Still not sure what to get. I was looking into Chromaphone, but maybe String Studio is more what I need. Anyone use any of their products? Apart from their ancient freebies, that is.

I've got several of them (Chromaphone, Lounge Lizard Session, Ultra Analog), and I like them quite a bit. Chromaphone is a particular favorite - I just don't have anything else in my toolbox that does quite what it does.

Anybody have a korg legacy pack they never used? It comes free with a lot of korg keyboard products. I'm specifically looking for the lounge lizards session VST and I'm doing this new thing where I don't pirate anything. I make wallets and I'm down for a trade.

Maybe I'm reading that wrong, but Lounge Lizard Session is not made by Korg, so it's not going to be in the Korg Legacy Collection. Maybe you're looking for either. LLS is now on sale; it was made by AAS, which we were just talking about. Link is a couple of posts up. On the other hand, there's a free legacy package of 32bit win vsts from Soundfonts.it that has some good physical modeling electric pianos in it. Here. I think it might even be a direct predecessor, but I'm not sure. Might be enough for your needs, so you can focus on getting KLC anyway, 'cause it's neat.

Flipperwaldt posted:I wasn't aware of the bundling. I see where you were going with that now. Yeah the 32bit wouldn't work for me since I use ableton with mostly 64 bit vsts, but I know someone somewhere out there received this for free and has it lying in some box unused somewhere  I've tried a few other electric piano vsts but really liked the lounge lizard with I tried it. :Although the analog lab vst that came with my minilab has some pretty sweet key sounds as well, I just hate the editing software.
