    Don't worry all other Fridays matter just as much as the ones you use your tv remove batteries to fish out all your belly button lint.

    It's just this Friday you can do cheaper, faster and with extra gas while frantically making lateral eye movements as therapy that soothes the pain while you *mmmgggnntt* shhhhhhiiiiihhh your weekend monies away.

    I wish Nembrini would do a sale, they still might. But not yet I guess.
    Oh well at least we have new skins for old Arts Acoustic products.

    Keep an eye out during Danksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas and New Years. Also look at their Twatter.
    https://twitter.com/ParawaveAudio

    They do sales, I got a few expansion from them in December that way. I think they had Rapid on sale then too but I only needed expansions. I wish more people outside of their company would jump on the bandwagon and sound design more banks for them because it's rare to find them. It's glorious when you actually do.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing convenient about anything they do from the pricing, waiting for a sale that probably only happens once before ship set sails then afterwards your are shit out of luck unless you love full retail prices without a discount and the VAT fee that most have no way to option out of. They had a major update last Christmas so there is a high chance that will happen again this year but with a discount.

    TL:DR stuffs below:
    I can only say it has been well worth every bit I spent on them. Oly, I know you are a Reaper user so you'll be stoked to learn that Rapid is the Reaper of Wavetable synthesis in terms of quick workflow. You don't have to think hard at all like with Vital. Wavetable import is the only thing I had to crack a manual for so far.

    I wish custom wavetable import was simpler which is my only gripe with it but it could be a detail I'm still missing about it. Vital is faster for WT import. I've never made melodic and harmonic content/ arp sequences and pads faster with anything else compared to Rapid though. It's an animal with it's diverity. It's not just a modern lead machine, you can get lofi and vintage with it too. One of my favorite purchases ever.

    What I see here are all plugins related deals: Is there any Black Friday link about gear?
    What I've found so far on gear are just fake offers like:
    Regular price: $1198
    Black friday price: ̶$̶ ̶1̶68̶0̶ ---> $1198

    Thank you for your advice and synth description as we can't try it properly.
    How is it cpu wise? What's your computer specs and how much % CPU it takes?
    I don't buy expansions, I do my own sounds.
    If I finally get it, you'll be the first with who I'll share my presets.

    Too much shit for me to go through on some of these links. the best way to get in on a deal is to RSS subscribe to: https://www.reddit.com/r/AudioProductionDeals/

    you can see them as they appear.

    best deals so far are free

    https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/play-series/twenty-five/

    It's pretty light overall but it can get pretty heavy. It all depends on how many sources you use in a single instance because you can run any type of oscillator tool you want so cpu load will heavily depend on how much you have going on in each instance of Rapid. You're not limited to one type of tool to treat your wavetables or wav samples. This thing can resynthesize & granulate too.

    You can run 3 oscillators per layer and you have 8 layers in one instance which means 24 different oscillator combination. I one layer you can drop a regular osc and then under it you can drop a granular engine to process your wavtable or sample all in one layer. It's awesome.

    I buy expansions sometimes but still design my own sounds and having expansions packs on hand is great for reverse engineering sounds or having a starting point to design one of your own from another. I don't always design from a default initialized preset. It helps me learn from other great sound designers. But I only buy those on sale.

    Just tested the demo version of this synth.
    So IMO Paraware synth kinda optimized.
    However presets /w granular engine are really CPU Heavy.
    In common 2 wavetable presets /w slight detune & effects are really optimized.
    10 Copies of Rapid = 35-40% of CPU - i7-10750h

    You can get all of their plugins for 99 Eur.

    I also got an email from BR, i only bought one plugin two years ago.
    Most plugins can be bought with 90% off except the few new ones which can be bought with a 70% voucher.
    I could get VlA-2A for only 12 euros.
    Maybe everyone that receives their newsletter got the same offer?

    So, so tempting but last month, I subscribed to Plugin Alliance mega bundle which is awesome and does everything these plugins do... Buying this might be overkill :rofl:

    So you got a 70 - 90% off voucher for individual plugins as a previous buyer? Sounds like a great deal. I just checked their site and saw that their regular prices seem higher than previously. But the deals price is awesome!
