..or how does that work?

If it says you can only use it once I would be afraid they could cancel one of my transactions and take back the plug. If I knew for sure they would not do this I probably would use it twice.

this is from terms "these terms are breached, Waves reserves the right to restrict use of the gift code, revoke any purchases or cancel accounts of people who abuse these terms."

I see ..I didn't read the terms. Well, it's fair enough because it was a nice gesture from Waves. I got the Aural Exciter and I also have my Eye on the compressor called API 2500. Maybe I grab that one to.

Aural Exciter is what I am tempted to get too!

I did not test it yet but I spent all evening yesterday looking for info about that one and it seems to be a great plugin. From what I learned it is not possible to get the same result with an EQ as with the Aural Exciter (according to different pro studio technicians). It will be interesting to try it out later. I also just grabbed the API 2500 :)

Or

Codex

What's a guy to do?
I do not have Serum so I am leaning more towards Codex.
Need advice!

I have Serum but not Codex. I never tried Codex. I do get the feeling that Codex is a good synth but I saw comments about it's GUI size and I listened to a number of demos. The sound seems to lack the clarity that Serum has. I did get Elements 2 and that one also have a slightly small GUI. It also lack some of the clarity (not saying it's a bad thing). It has its own character. I found that Elements 2 is not shy to use CPU Power but other people claim that Codex is not so CPU hungry. For the Aural Exciter I can't say much yet. I bought it this morning but I need to install it and test it once I get home from office :D ...

I was also a bit interested in Codex but I do have many synth plugins already (including Serum). But the price is very attractive. I do need to ask myself several times "what do I really need?" ..and I did not have any exciter. I have several compressors but none that is really good for bus compression, so I also got the AIP 2500.

If you have any existing oneknob plugs, might wanna check your upgrade possibilities. Upgrade for a free oneknob plug I got on black friday it shows $80 for me before the gift50. :tu:

Aphex Aural is cool. I've had it for awhile and like it. But if you have any of the better saturation/harmonic exciters like Saturn, SDRR, bx_Saturator etc - you can probably safely pass on getting the Aphex. I have to admit it is easy to overcook with the Aphex, so go easy with it if you do get it :)

I'm considering Codex in this sale too. I agree Element II is CPU greedy.. almost unbelievably so!

Guys, please try to avoid creating duplicate accounts.
If anybody wants more stuff, contact me and we'll find a solution.

Thanks,
Koby

I actually never thought of doing that :dog:

Seems like it would just get messy because then you'd have to have multiple Waves accounts too probably.

It's pretty much worthless.

$80 - $50 = $30 and you lose your existing license/s in the process. no duplicates.

You can get OneKnob Series as NEW (and keep your license/duplicate) for $31 from everyplugin.com ;)
