Which set was that, Ed? I know they have volume 1 & 2.

Edit: Someone is selling absynth 4 for 84 euro on KVR if you like that kinda thing.

Agreed about Battery, I absolutely adore it.

I had Massive once and was completely underwhelmed by it so I swapped it for AA Ultra Analog <----

These are probably used as much as Sylenth on my tracks. They are just superb, brilliant, easy, fun, inspirational, perfect, luverly and wonderful!

Absynth didn't really grab me as much as Massive tbh.

I bought pack1. Pack 2 will be purchased in the next round of toys. the audio demons on the NI site are nice !

Battery is one of the best value buys around.

If people don't get on that then it is all rather puzzling - funds permitting, of course, or unless they have an equivalent.

It's also back up to €199 in the NI store so shops may follow when stock runs out.

I really had my eye on GURU before I bought Komplete, and if I'm honest I'd have probably gone for that if I was buying them individually. As was pointed out earlier (I think it was Ed but I'm too lazy to check. The irony of course is that in the time its taken me to write this note I could have check 3 times over and expended much less finger-energy) Battery really suffers for not having internal sequencing and some of the features are a little awkward but its a wonderful tool. I still use Audio for drums a lot, mainly use Battery for little breaks in the background and percussion loops.

Could never get on with it. I got bored before the release of any of the patches had sounded off I think.

I think DV has it for £99 packaged with V-Station.

I adore Battery 3 and I dont care about the lack of pattern programmer.
