i put it in two sections you didn't have to read both.@midnight wrote:TheoM wrote:Hi everyone.. without demoing 100 plugins maybe you can all point me the right way
The story part:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok i want to explain once and for all:
This is reality. My health is declining, NOT getting better, the only days i feel good is when i am on pain meds. Even today on high doses, my back was killing me and knifing pain.
Now, as plenty of you know i have complete one sided deafness.. the other ear is ok but not fantastic, and i face the very real possibility of one day , if anything ever happens to that ear, say an infection and i get some hearing loss, i won't really be able to make music anymore.
between that and my back it is hard. I KNOW i have bad buying/selling habits that i am trying to fix and since been back to logic after reason have been very careful with my purchases.. anything i sell will be something i had before that never use.. i haven't bought anything i have re-sold this time
Thus i am no longer buying ANY plugins under ANY circumstances that i can not transfer in the future. I feel that i have 5 years left in me, i am 40 now, and i really don't think i'll be making music forever cause my health just isn't coping. It's just REALISM guys.
All i want to know, is that IF or WHEN that day comes that i really do quit for GOOD, i will be able to get something back for my purchases. I created a standard email that i sent to many devs who don't offer transfers explaining the situation, and all agreed that it was ok to transfer if the time came.. very well written polite email.. explaining my personal situation and being open and honest. the only thing i changed in each email was the respective products i was inquiring about.
SO besides Andy, (i won't even ask fxpansion, that's a long story leave it at that), every single one of them was willing to help me out, every one.
I desperately wanted the glue and the drop as i feel they are the best of their class. I regret selling the glue when i went to reason which turned out to be temporary, because i had bought it at a time where i was allowed to transfer my copy.. people who bought prior to Andy changing his policies were allowed to do that. So if i still had it i could sell it when needed to.
Andy and I got into stupid banter, i eventually got nasty cause he was being a smart ass, but i am not getting into that either.... *snip*
Couldn't you have just asked for the plugin you wanted, without making us all read this terribly sad story?
Secondly, i needed to explain once and for all why i will only buy stuff that is transferrable cause i have had grief about that before.
I won't say it again, now you all either understand, or don't.
And if i DIDN'T explain, people would have said "why don't you just get the glue and be done with it". Don't you get that?
