So, anyone manage to download it? I was able to get it setup right after launch and spent a few hours making some patches with furbies, radioactive stalactites and the likes.
I am really liking the new and improved FX modules, wavtables, granular, and unison functionality.
Innerspace is a great effect module that has alot of potential and the new "Precision Compressor" really hits the spot for punchy and present sounds. They improved the Analog Phaser as well as best I can tell it sounds much easier to fit into a mix.
Mood based browsing is literally the best thing ever. Havn't gotten around to making a song so I can try out soundmatch yet. I have been having so much fun making stupid furby patches I can't be arsed to make an actual song :stongue: |

I'm going to wait a few days before downloading it. I'm in the middle of finishing some other songs and can't be distracted by any shiny new objects right now. :(
Besides, after watching the inevitable chaos unfold over on KVR, I think I'll just avoid the fiasco for now and wait until Spectrasonics' servers have had a chance to cool off. |

Called that a mile away, Spectrasonics should have known better than to say their servers could handle it though... and so should the people foolish enough to believe that :stongue: |

Looks like you got it in record time. What are you, buds with Eric Persing or something? :) |

I have VNC on my desktop running so I could start the process from my cubicle :D
I think Spectrasonics thought that because they used a CDN for the data download they were in the clear... but they apparently failed to do adequate load testing on their payment and authorization systems...
To be honest with that perspective this has been a pretty solid launch so far. |

Well, except for this:

It started good and went downhill quickly :clown:
I hear they are helping out people individually via email now, no success stories on KVR yet though. |

If you suddenly start hearing lots of Furby samples in TV/Movies, you will know where they are from :cool:
