Default Re: A.I.R Instrument Expansion Pack Upgrade Pricing...

You only get the discount on the pack if you own structure or strike; no discount if you own transfuser etc...

None of this makes sense.

Who is calling the shots and why are they allowing this to continue?

I'm going to guess thats because Transfusar was not a part of the original AIR Box set.

I don't think so. That's the quote I got because they're the two VIs I own.

Hello,

Paying for a point release update is a joke, like Apple saying here's Logic 9.1 give us more money!

This is especially true for Structure as it doesn't even work properly (the database is a total mess, import is crap)

These are mostly BUG FIXES! and should be free for current users - poke the new content where the sun don't shine

Shame 'cos I like bits of my Structure LE (only stuck with it due to Russ and the excellent Air Users Blog though), still like Hybrid a lot.

Just my 2p worth


Cheers

I just added up what I've paid for the Air Instruments and it comes to almost £750.
I purchased each one as it became available rather than in the boxed set.

I think charging anyhing for the update/bugfix that makes Structure do what it was supposed to do from day one is disgraceful and I will be contacting Digi Sales in the UK as soon as a formal announcement is made about the upgrade options.

Sure, I might like the additional content and I'd be happy to pay for it, however paying for bugfixes..... very poor show.

Let's see what Digi's official response is.....

It was the same with Logic. Many users had bought EXS24, EVP88 etc (as I had) for quite a high price, then suddenly they were all bundled with Logic free of charge.

I think it's called progress
