    Hello, Nynthixia here

    Did some upgrades and updates yesterday, at the same time as working for the album to be released on Saturday.

    1) Neutron Elements

    Upgraded to Neutron 3 Elements, yay! I've been waiting for a deal to update it either for free either for not too expensive, and I did it for... Less than €4 by buying a presets pack. So all songs from now on (Nov 5, 2020) will be using Neutron 3 Elements instead of Neutron Elements (the legacy ver). For you, it shouldn't change a lot for now.

    2) FL upgrade!

    Image-Line decided for Black Friday to make an offer with a personalized price for updating to a FL version with all plugins included, only the FL vers though, especially directed to the people who only work on FL (a bit my case...). By adding taxes I got it for only €132. So add Ogun, Drumaxx, Transient Processor... Thinking this is only the new start of a "new era". The part 2.

    And there will be a part 3, but later this month. Surprise!

     

    Question is: "Nynthixia, if you upgraded your FL, does that mean you'll have to change seasons again?"

    Answer is "no".

    - season 5 is way too short, remember it only started on August, it only has 1 album (soon 2). Even in the future season 5 is meant to be a short season because when the next version of FL Studio (in terms of numbers, so either 21, 22 or 23 depending of "how they want to do") will be released, I'll have to change seasons. We already almost switched to season 5 with FLEX, but since FLEX was integrated within FL20, the season stayed the same.
    - technically, when I go on the "About" tab of FL, even when you unlock the "all plugins edition" (not "bundle", "edition", that's how Image-Line distinguishes the ver with VST vers and the one without) it's still displayed as "Signature Bundle". Estimate that it's like if I had just done purchases for Ogun, Transient Processor and Drumaxx. Within season 3, there were already major synth changes, like the trio Sakura/Sawer/Transistor Bass, or Morphine/PoiZone/Toxic Biohazard...
    - season 5 is thus meant to be a transition season towards the new FL ver. Season 5 is a season of huge progressive updates, like season 3, while season 4 had especially one (FLEX), season 1 none and season 2... I had just decided to use Sytrus on December instead of October 2015. So technically I still had Sytrus since start of season 2, I just started to use it way later, the time to learn how to use FL correctly.

     

    Remember next dates:

    - Saturday the 7th, album release
    - and in a week, public song with Sayu - tip: it's an Azur Lane series song
    - way later in the week, there will be another major upgrade
