DontCrack are fine and legit. They did a Oxford Sonnox group buy a while back and got the plugins for almost half price - after the group buy the order went through fine and got my iLok authorisations from Oxford.

Thanks and no worries- they have withdrawn the product, not in stock for sale!?!? Think they messed up or doing a swindle to get people on their site maybe!

Only saw the deal yesterday, downloaded demo to check function and compatibility. Woke up this morning as though I dreamt it. Fortunately for my sanity someone on KVR webby had taken a screenshot.

Never mind, another deal will come along I am sure to crack then.

I like Waldorf synths, I mean the hardware type. I have a Micro Q which is really nice for analog-style pads. I tried the Blofeld, which sounds nice too, but I think it's a bit overpriced for what it does. it would be an excellent product if it had the "total integration" like the Virus TI, but unfortunately it doesn't.

A friend of mine bought the Largo some time ago, and I had the chance to test it extensively: huge disappointment. In my humble opinion, it doesn't offer you anything more than a $50 VA softsynth for five times the price. Even at $150, I wouldn't buy it.

If you want a really really good softsynth, get Alchemy, which is super-nice and now it comes with a free add-on of your choice (which regularly sells for $60.) I know, it's $250, kinda pricey for a download, but it's TOTALLY worth it.
