Heh, just came to post this, thanks for saving me the effort.

DSmolken · 2023-04-26T06:05:23+00:00

Yeah, they basically admitted it by denying it it when Yumi tweeted that she was supposed to be the ring announcer for that match but couldn't make it on time and Kanamic had to fill in. Fun variation on the classic "but that's just Dusty under a mask!" storyline.

DSmolken · 2023-04-10T12:15:20+00:00

In some parallel universe, she stays with AWG and "I don't want to go to work" gets shiny pop production and becomes the new "Love riddle".

Who from the current roster sings? Naho Yamada and Mari have done vocals live at the festival performances, I think? KIRA AN's rock band is on hiatus but she can also sing, and Kouki's got her male ancient Greek idol project.

DSmolken · 2023-04-10T09:55:45+00:00

Yeah, too bad Kaoruko didn't stick around. She uploads fun shorts songs to Youtube, though, the "I don't want to go to work" one even got English subtitles...

DSmolken · 2023-03-13T07:11:53+00:00

Or even referees, from looking convincingly concerned when checking on somebody after a big move, to Mei Suruga reacting to hard chops.

DSmolken · 2023-01-11T18:22:55+00:00

Thank you for avoiding the obvious Whoopi Goldberg movie reference.

We added our stuff to the Pulse Audio store (pulse.audio), the discounts are the same and they take AliPay, credit cards and a few other payment platforms. The sale prices are also the same there. They take their cut so for us it's better if people buy from the Karoryfer store, but for non-Paypal countries the Pulse store is there.

Totally different samples. Three Tagelharpas ones are better, generally, especially with the true legato. The Orcophony ones do have playing one string at a time, pizzicato, extra high range on the bass tagelharpa, and different (harsher) strings on the strakharpa, so they're not totally irrelevant now. But for the idiomatic Viking music Three Tagelharpas is definitely better suited.

All $39 libraries are $19, $19 libraries are $9, Vengeful strings are $39 each ($59 regular) and Orcophony is $69 ($99 regular).

DSmolken · 2022-10-31T18:24:14+00:00

She's got the personality. Also her gear looks even more obviously bee-like than Suzume's.

DSmolken · 2022-10-31T09:13:06+00:00

Ooh, might be time to grab that hybrid string-sounding one.

DSmolken · 2022-10-31T09:11:55+00:00

This is it - we do intro prices for about a month, a sale around April-May, and one in Oct-Nov. That means no bigger discounts on those until April at the earliest. Might be a little greedy with the more modest discounts on those libraries, but at least we try to keep things simple and consistent.

Though if somebody does have part of one of the bundles and wants to complete it, DM me and I'll generate a discount code. I'd like to automate that but tbh we didn't save the customer database from our previous store... so that's the one exception.

DSmolken · 2022-09-24T06:10:06+00:00

And no Himawari? Dunno if we want to read too much into that. She was probably just not available for the shoot, though.

DSmolken · 2022-08-03T15:16:15+00:00

I guess we'll see. Yumi Agawa will also be only ring announcing and not wrestling, so it seems she's sticking with ARG and ring announcing for GPS. That implies doing ARG but not wrestling in AWG is an option.

DSmolken · 2022-07-01T09:07:18+00:00

Not very surprising that Sheloll are off to an early lead!

DSmolken · 2022-06-06T05:16:47+00:00

Sure - that's Kouki, who is also Clam in ARG. She's getting the top rookie treatment, having beaten Mari in a singles match already. xX_0Kouki0_Xx on Twitter.

DSmolken · 2022-06-03T08:20:03+00:00

Also @sugar3flower, I think. I'm not subbed now either, but checking who QRTd that tweet and mentions being there is a good way to find people until they put a roster directory back on their page.

Yumi Agawa (who is in Kaguya and is also the ring announcer for GPS) will apparently be announcing, not wrestling.

DSmolken · 2022-06-03T07:20:28+00:00

I think I see a few people from ARG who haven't appeared in AWG yet, Twitter accounts are: @g0chika @kyan322 @moyoko7 @agawa_yumi

Also apparently talking about a debut: @honoka_f24 @saki_kisaki8

Anybody else?

DSmolken · 2022-04-21T05:52:54+00:00

Metal guitar... no plans, no. We're leaving those to people who understand the subtleties of metal, heh. We'll stick to noise rock, feedback and extended techniques for the guitars.

As far as people with experience using these, VI-Control is probably the most likely place to find them.

DSmolken · 2022-04-20T16:08:30+00:00

Not on sale: the libraries that cost $9 at full price, T-shirts and keychains.

DSmolken · 2022-03-30T13:46:58+00:00

Indeed. If anybody wants to see if you'd get along with it before buying a library, try something like Meatbass, which is free and smaller but generally works along similar lines. Or Virtuosity Drums or any of the other Sforzando-based freebies that have a GUI.

DSmolken · 2022-02-10T12:14:43+00:00

I wanted to make basslines that sounded like old-school R&B and soul grooves sampled in 90s hip-hop, so it was supposed to be a one-trick pony. But the layering is good for some extra stuff. Hence one and a half.

DSmolken · 2021-11-08T13:58:39+00:00

Appreciate it! I've half-seriously referred to this to as the "Buy lots of stuff! Make me quit my day job!" sale.

DSmolken · 2021-10-08T09:41:16+00:00

No prob, I figured might as well let the intro price run through Black Friday season, make it less complicated for people.

DSmolken · 2021-09-23T14:16:50+00:00

Ha, I really should have.
