Yeah, I have the same problem. I tried to go through the checkout process maybe 20 times to be sure I am doing it right :D I’ve contacted their support too, so we shall see. I think the offer simply expired and they just did not updated their web.

Firstly,I couldn’t complete the Checkout process via the Gumroad link that pops up, as there is nowhere to paste the copied Free Download Code.

As such, making an assumption (an offering a fervent prayer) that the Free Offer has not already expired, I have sent Karanyi Sounds a message via the helpdesk support offshoot, which I had to set up an account for – the link to their Helpdesk platform is: KaranyiSounds.Zendesk.com

Then, just to compound the hassle and frustration yet further, it turns out you cannot use these login credentials to sign in to their main website – no,you need to create separate account for that.

And to top it all, you cannot set-up an account on their Main site until you’ve actually made a purchase on either a Free or Paid for item. I mean HELLO… talk about unnecessarily convoluted. Geez, I need a strong cup of coffee, or perhaps even something considerably stronger! ;-)

Ugh, sorry folks, not meaning to sound like such a whinging old grump… but it would certainly be interesting to hear if anyone else has had similar”issues” with the checkout process for this VST.

Cheers all, and thanks for the initial heads-up, Mr Frady!

(hmmm, perhaps I should have led with that sentiment instead really…) *facepalm*

I go over everything in the plugin and this video also applies to the paid version basically.

Link to video:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3x2ayVljlYk&t=30s

Overall the plugin can generate some good sounds and has unique controls, but there are a few drawbacks that I noticed when testing it for the video.

A few things I didn’t like:
– Noise module has too few controls
– The FX modules can’t be rearranged in the chain
– The labelling of what the controls do isn’t great
– Would like to see independent ADSR envelopes for
each sound source and the noise source.

What I liked:
– Sound sources are high quality
– FX modules sound good but have limited controls
– Good dry/wet matrix for FX
– LOVE the randomization features (every plugin
should have this)

Overall it’s a pretty limited and genre specific instrument, but has some convincing sounds and effects.

Thanks a lot if you check out my video!

Sounds more like a chatbot-generated sales page. Powerful features. Intuitive interface. For those who don’t want to compromise sound quality. Woot. Vast libraries.

They have two sound packs for download (the others are “unavailable”. Vast, I know. The second one is a 3.1 megabyte “worship drum” that certainly won’t compromise sound quality.

Thx! Very nice. BTW, Avast had blocked it, but reported it was safe later.
