The difference lies in its license type, which is dependent on a "qualifying base product" - and the price, since all Updates / Upgrades / Crossgrades are offered with a discount. NI software looks really great but, imho, it start to become too “big” (in all senses: hard disk space, price, number of libraries offerered) and it’s true that they cannot offer all this good stuff for a decent price anymore unfortunately.What Exactly is a Crossgrade / Update / Upgrade?Ī product acquired through an Update / Upgrade / Crossgrade is identical to the full version of the same product and offers the same features and functionality as the full version. Last year I bought Falcon but this year my money goes already to the incredible Omnisphere (I was dreaming of using this synth for years !) when I saw recently (here in fact) the demo of their 2.5 new version with all these new software INNOVATION(s) which would have deserved to be in a version 3.0 and also the fact that people already owning Omnisphere won’t have to pay a cent for this … (which I means that they are treating very well their OLD clients to me and not only the NEW ones as it is too often the case) this finally decided me to buy this synth this year as I have to make a choices… I agree that NI developers should be paid for their (very good) work but I found the upgrade price rather expensive if (as it is the case for me) music is only a hobby for you and not your day to day work.
