Seriously, look through the monster thread in here on doing it for free (well almost) Gear by the way is a Maton EM325C acoustic/electric, 1965 Hofner 500/1 violin bass, Roland A-30 MIDI keyboard, UR22, Schiit Magni 3 and BD DT770 Pro 250 ohm. I'd even be happy to pay around $200 and forget about Artist. I just wish I knew where to find even a minimal set of good sounds. I've been a programmer for over 40 years and the temptation to get my fingers dirty "improving" the DAW is irresistible and I appreciate that it contains functionality missing from Artist. I'm going to buy a licence for Reaper whatever happens. I've been drooling over Komplete 11 Ultimate but $$$. Even buying a decent synth for Reaper is going to cost around $150 plus the Reaper licence and I'm already up to the same cost as an Artist upgrade.
#Avenger vst vs komplete upgrade#
If Steinberg throws a sale, it will cost me around AUD$230 to upgrade to Artist which comes with a pretty good synth, Pad Shop, Groove Agent and almost 3000 sounds (and yes, many or most of them I might never use). I've found a couple of free pianos and installed Ample Guitar and Bass, TAL Noisemaker, Dexed, Kontakt 5 Player and Guitar Rig 5 (free) but I'm still way short of the included sounds in Elements, let alone Artist. etc) and have found plenty of synths and effects but very few "real" instruments such as brass, woodwinds, strings and so on. I've spent the last week reading every thread, review, article I could find on 3rd party VSTi plugins, checked out the sites mentioned here and elsewhere (bedroomproducers. My only reservation is the lack of included VSTi sounds. I've now watched all of Kenny's excellent "Reaper Explained" videos and some of the MIDI specific ones, downloaded the trial and decided that I really like the product, support and the customer-focussed approach. However, in the process, I discovered Reaper and took a closer look. I decided that, if Steinberg had the usual summer upgrade sale, I'd upgrade to Artist 9.5. I've been a (casual) Cubase Elements user for some years now and finally decided to put in some hours and learn the product.
