New SynthMaster 2.9 expansion - Big Tone Tableworks (Wavetables)

Downloaded this today.  Very nice! 
 
BigTone's latest expansion for Synthmaster 2.9: Tableworks, which contains presets designed with BigTone's wavetables.
 
Makes very good use of the new wavetable feature in SynthMaster.  Big Tone uses a combination of MW + PB, or MW + PB + AT for most of these presets, which makes them very playable.  It is like having an x-y pad under your wheels!

    If we have the Everything Bundle, does this mean we also get the new expansions?

    I just got these too.  And abacab is definitely right.  These sounds are rather nice and exotic.  Synthmaster is an excellent sounding instrument.  You can switch the arpeggiator off as well with many of these and just get the straight un-arpeggiated version of these sounds too.   Lots to be done with the MW and PB too.

    Yes!
     
    Go into the browser in the synth UI, click on the purchased tab, select the expansion, and right-click 'refresh my licenses'.  That should kick off the online installer.  Else, take a look at the instructions below...
     
    Also, you can click on any product in the 'Purchased' or 'Show All' tabs, and look at the button under the product display on the right.  It will say either 'Purchased', or 'Download'.  If you see any with 'Download', you should be able to update online if you have the 'Everything Bundle' license.

    Oh wow, I didn't know about that refresh licenses thing, so there have been 3 releases since I first installed the Everything Bundle.  I keep the core program up to date, but this is kinda cool having all of these new presets!

    They call 'em fingers, but I've never seen 'em fing.

    Another tip with the Synthmaster presets, is that the factory stuff, and most of the expansions, were released before the new filter types were added in SynthMaster 2.8.  Prior to the upgrade the presets only used the Digital or VAnalog types.
     
     
    There are 4 new ZDF filter types now, including ladder, and diode ladder.  The last three Big Tone expansion packs made good use of these. 
     
    If you wish to tweak the original expansions with the new filters yourself, they are available!
     
    https://www.pro-tools-expert.com/home-page/2016/12/13/overview-synthmaster-28-by-kv331-audio
     

    4 new types of filters based on zero delay feedback (ZDF) topology.
    1. Ladder (Moog type) filter with 2 pole/4 pole LP/HP/BP/BS variations)
    2. Diode Ladder (TB303 type) 4 pole LP filter
    3. State variable (SEM type) filter, 2 pole LP/HP/BP/BS/Multimode filter
    4. Bite (Korg MS20 type) filter 2 pole LP, 1 pole HP

    Thanks again, abacab, both new preset banks were added as you explained.
    Logic preferences still showing version 2.9.1, although SynthMaster itself says 2.9.6
