I might give it a try, it’s in my account, I assumed it wouldn’t work anymore. ---

Following up on this, I have been unsuccessful in getting the YMK freebie snare to work in the current iteration of BFD3. Any word on when this might get added to the license manager? ---

It (the freebie) showed up in my kit pieces after updating LM and rescanning content, but if I try to select it, I’m informed that it is “unauthorized” even though I have a serial number for it and it gets removed from the list… Nothing like mandating DRM on a freebie… (smh) … my recollection is it did not sound the same as the one in Deluxe, as I ended up using it (YMK) an entire album for a client (but perhaps the velocity curve was different?) I believe Drew mentioned it could/would be ressurrected at some point, the priority being the fundamentals. which makes total sense. ---

It’s a subset of the velocities in the YMK distribution. Different room, different sound. ---

@kafka thank you. IIRC it did sound different, hoping to see it get reenabled in the near future (it was pretty useful for me). ---

Once again, Drew came through with flying colors. All set now with YMK, back up and running across the board with no issues. ---

Sorry for the huge lag: I thought I had updated this, but apparently not, and have moved in the interim. After a lot of run around with Musician’s Friend (and the same goes for their parent company GC), I was NOT able to get a copy of Deluxe. They said they had it for sale (had two support people double check and told me it was available), allowed me to purchase it, but then I was stuck in limbo for quite some time, while apparently they were waiting for FXpansion to send them a download ticket. It never came, and I got a refund. [Previous page](https://forum.bfddrums.com/t/manu-katche-snare/637.md?page=1)
