  • RE: Payment providers compared

    @AlienXY I'm very sus of popup AI generated sites. It might be totally legit but I'd need to be convinced.

    All of that is included in Gumroad's fee, and unlimited email marketing too (not a usage-based extra charge).

    Does gumroad give you a proper shopping cart that you can embed on your website? Last time I used it it was just buy now buttons.

    Another thing I like about Moonbase is the cart offers feature. I can set it up so if the customer adds £x to their cart they will get a %n discount and this is displayed in the cart like a progress bar which encourages customers to spend a little more to get to the next goal.

    Does Gumroad have an affiliate system? That's another thing I'm no longer paying separately for with Moonbase.

  • RE: Payment providers compared

    @tobbentm Yeah I just noticed it in my account :) I don't the pricing can compete with SES but it's nice to have it integrated, and a lot of people can't get on SES it seems. Would it be possible to use our own SES subscription with Moonbase's mailer?

    There's certainly a difference in price, but also a massive difference in features and mindset behind the platforms, so I hope you all also consider everything else you need when selecting each, vs what is included in these prices.

    By switching to Moonbase I massively reduced my costs elsewhere.
    I no longer pay for hosting/data transfer costs, this means I'm able to have a cheaper VPS for my website, this was about a £30/month saving.

    I was also paying annual fees for several wordpress plugins:

    • WooCommerce tax calculations
    • Software licensing
    • Amazon S3/Bunny
    • A plugin that sends WooCommerce data to my accounting software
    • Currency conversion plugin
    • There's probably a few others I'm forgetting.

    I also don't have the quarterly headache of dealing with VATMoss.

    It looks like several of the other options would also offer some of these features too. I'm very happy with Moonbase though, it was easy to integrate. I've been able to add custom functionality with a few PHP/JS snippets. The support is very good and I actually get to talk to a real person! And new features are being added all the time.

    How did you manage to get it?

    I don't recall having to do anything special but it was several years ago so my memory is lacking

    @dannytaurus Really nice and detailed summary, another option you might want to check is Paddle, I use them for AudioDevSchool because my LMS software includes built in integration, not sure how easy it is to setup for plugins but I seem to recall there is a WooCommerce plugin.

    Regarding marketing, there is some stuff on Moonbase roadmap. What I use is FluentCRM + Amazon SES, it's very cheap and all the data stays on my server. I use webhooks from Moonbase to update records in FluentCRM automatically.

  • Rhapsody + Rhapsodist

    Rhapsody is a player plugin I built with HISE and have been using for several years for my commercial sample libraries.

    For building Rhapsody instruments I've developed a collection of reusable scripts and modules. This started out as a set of boilerplate code but I've now expanded it into a consistent framework called Rhapsodist.

    It's now at a point where I think it's pretty stable and ready for others to use.

    To use it you need to be running my fork of HISE, as it has some stuff not yet in upstream and is setup with some specific preprocessor definitions. Don't worry, you don't need to compile it, builds are already available here.

    The documentation for Rhapsodist is here.

    The docs explain how to get Rhapsodist set it up, some template projects are provided, and I'm working on video tutorials as well.

    @cartemtune agree with every one here, open it up - I get a nice percentage of sales form Japan and ANZ

  • RE: HISE_NUM_STANDALONE_OUTPUTS warning

    @gp_ it seems to happen when you disconnect or change an interface Hise had in memory when it’s close, then when you start it again it doesn’t find it and throws this warning.

    Since when Hise has an issue or crashes it doesn’t rewrite the memory, it will happen next time again and again. The same thing happens with the window configuration since it is saved only with a proper close without issues, recalling an old window configuration (this time without a warning like the audio interface one)

    Instead, Hise should save the configuration (audio, midi, windows, etc) as they change and not when closing the app.

    But usually for the interface if the configuration doesn’t change between Hise sessions the warning should just go away

    €5 per payout.

    I go for monthly payouts to minimize it
