Sorry, let me clarify. The EB-5 instrument that is included in this pack will be updated. You won't get the entire collection. That will happen soon and will be in your account.



Yeah,ok. Still love you all, CW.
 
Anyway, upgrade price make sense since we already own some chunk of the pack.

After watching the vid and semi sorta figuring out what all that techno jibber is the free update to just the older Eb5 package is really quite a bit (if I'm understanding correctly).
 
Essentially we get the extra "slide" articulations, string plucking that can be changed while playing (pick/thumb/finger whereas before I think we had to choose either fingered or picked and stick with it) and the effects (octave, 10string, chorus, etc...). It loads in Rap Session instead of DP... but I wonder if it will still load in DP or the old Rapture (and retain functionality... probably not).
 
I have not tried RapSession yet so this would be my excuse.
 
The only things missing I guess would be the Midtown and LesPaul sounds which isn't a huge loss because the Eb5 bass covers most of my needs anyway.
 
Yeah... pretty good free surprise upgrade, if that is indeed what's going on.

This would be really nice if it included vintage gems like an original Thunderbird and L9S Ripper bass.

Apparently Craig has done Thunderbird for Rapture Pro. Craig ones mentioned it is on his list to go to Gibson vaults, take any Thunderbird he likes and make it available for other synths too.

Well, that didn't work. I purchased the EB-5 expansion pack for Dim Pro last September (Reference No.: 79571284). All I got from the Store when I tried to add the coupon was the following error message:
 
INPUT ERROR

A further popup message stated that the code is invalid for the product in the cart, or does not exist.
 
Please help.

Maybe the discount code won't work until they release the update for EB5 users?
 
I'm kind of thinking they might have only conjured this discount up due to this thread... which is appreciated.
 
Like maybe Cleverbridge needs some time to process the new data or sumthin'.
 
Just guessing
 
PS: When you get it installed a review would be cool. Not sure about the LP one but the Midtown seems like something I'd use extensively as an alt to the EB5.

I just tried it and it worked. It brought the price down to $33.47. Make sure you copied the code exactly:
 
EB5BASS
 
Also, make sure you apply it to this product:
 
https://shop.cakewalk.com/1244/catalog/category.60469/product.167957/

I clicked on your link (which took me to the same page I tried to buy from before), added the expansion to the cart, copied and pasted the code (EB5BASS; which I just added by pasting, not by typing, so you can see what I entered), clicked on the '+' to add it...and got the same error as before.
 
Is the store not recognizing my existing license for EB-5?
 
Edit: I am logged in (all my account details, etc., are visible) when I do this.
