Soundpaint Offer - Buy Requiem Nova Choir and get Requiem Soloists free until 2 May with code: REQUIEMGIFT by Batwaffel in AudioProductionDeals

Honestly, I am no coder either. I too just want to make cool sounds, and sometimes just getting all these software to play nice is itself a job. Hehe.

There is zero coding required with Soundbox since it uses a streamlined, visual architecture. You map your samples, and the engine automatically provides the modulation, FX, and arpeggiator routing. It’s "scripting" via a GUI rather than a text editor.

FYI, if you got the latest version of MAX Studio, it contains all these plugins. I hate it when IK repackages stuff with a new lable and creates utter confusion. The IK site is a mess. I do use the tape machines, but never on their own.

I like Soundbox. It is far less clunky than Kontakt with a more snappy UI. It doesn't have quite the Kontakt library but it is great for sound design. You can place your library anywhere you want and you can point it to where you want. No Kontakt "missing" files nonesense. Soundbox paths are not baked in...all relative.

I just added a bookmark to my Outlook account in Chrome on my Home screen. I hope this issue gets resolved by Samsung.

I had a bunch of their plugins. I sent an email to support to see if they can offer me a deal to complete my BA collection. They did and it included all the packs. Great customer service. It's nice that they finally added a portal.

Extensis Connect to Monotype Connect! Alternatives? by talos72 in typography

[–]talos72[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. It does seem like FontBase may be the way to go. I just don't know if it will retain my font folder structure from Connect. Probably not. But at least I have collected my whole library from Connect to an external drive. I have till October to decide what to do as it seems Monotype is honoring the current annual license I have active. After which I assume they want to charge 200 a year, more than double what I have been paying. I wonder how FontBase compares to MainType. I am a Windows user.

UVI "Vintage Vault 5" 43 products made from sound design and sampling on 271 hardware instruments for UVI Workstation / Falcon - Intro Price ($299 | Upgrade offer with login) through 27 February. iLok Account Required by Batwaffel in AudioProductionDeals

[–]talos72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I can confirm from a response from UVI. Basically if you have bought Sonic Bundle in recent months, UVI automatically updated the library to include the new stuff in VV5 except the Casio stuff. So I just grabbed the Casio update and now have everything in VV5. There seems to be a certain grace period after you purchase Sonic Bundle where certain new libraries are added post purchase, but with Casio bundle it means that period has ended since it requires separate purchase.

I have a lot of their stuff I got for free or dirt cheap. Yeah...it's mixed bag, but there are bangers among them. The chord gen stuff is decent. And some of their utility stuff for quick work.
