I clicked again..now it was € 9.63.. so I bought it.

I just got an email with links to three download files (2x Install-opx-4-v1.1.0-release.exe and 1x Install-opx-4-v1.1.0-release.pkg).. is this really the way to install it in standalone mode? I'm at work right now, can only check in a few hours.

Edit: I can see the purchase within my Akai account so installation should indeed workout.
Thanks guys for the infos!

I plugged my phone with usb to mpc one (share internet via usb) and activated it in the mpc's plugin activation page (menu). In minute or two it was ready to use.

Good deal - bought it. I’m really excited to play around with that.

I bought it for 9,63€ but it didn't showed up in my InMusic account.
Tried the whole checkout again, and bought it for 29,-€ again (at 38,63€ still a very good deal) and it showed up.
Installed via the synth manager tool to my Live-II. It activated flawlessly.
New toy \o/ WhoopWhoop :D

I gotta admit I paid 0 attention to this synth and I just bought it because it's cheap.

That said, it sounds way much better than I expected (another DX7 shitty clone is what I expected). Most presets have that FMish metallic sound I dislike, but a few are great to play with. Complex sounds have some reminiscences of the old Korg Wavestation, and the brasses sound a lot like Wendy Carlos.

So, yes, for 7€ it's a steal :mrgreen:

This is typical AKAI move. Back in June when it was released it was obvious that this was gonna come. So boys and girls, when AKAI launches a new product, specially a software product, don't be victims of your own fomo and hold your horses, eventually this is going to happen.
Happy for y'all that waited.
