Pretty sure it's always been 50% off, if you buy it with all 29 sound banks.

All speculation on my side, but as I see it right now it would be a 75% chance for Apple (sadly, I HOPE I am wrong with this), and then 25% chance for a major DAW company. Maybe Native instruments aside from a DAW maker.

Long thread. The VAT changes will result in Apple paying more tax. I don't defend many EU actions, but this one has been overdue.

Keep the original 1.55 installer backed up somewhere....

Well, I for one am growing a little tired of the magnanimousness...

My guess they just wanted to get out ...and California seemed like a fine option. I hope that they do see this and cry themselves to sleep on their giant cash-filled pillows

(Warning ...this has some heavy language)

(Jokes people ....I'm really going to feel like a d@#k if injury or ill health is a factor in this)

The more I think about it, the more I feel so disappointed.
As a small indipendent musician I invested so much money, efforts, plans for the future on Alchemy. A few years and the plugin will be so outdated... What a waste!

Now I just do have to sweat to spare good money for a new journey elsewhere (maybe Mach Five?).

Thanks Camels, thank you so much.

Sorry to burst your bubble right there - but this whole story should teach you one major thing:
Software doesn't live forever.

We live in a fast paced world, technology can change on a daily basis. I am surprised that certain tools from like 5 years back still work on my rig. On the other hand, my 20+ year old hardware is still working without any bigger pulled tips/tricks.

I have tried, really, to warn you all.....

Keep the original 1.55 installer backed up. No one listens....

I'm hoping they merged with another company or sold the intellectual rights.

I don't know why NI would buy CA. Unless they fuse it with Absynth. I don't see a hole in their product line to warrant purchasing a whole IP.

So do I re download the Alchemy installers 1-4 and all my soundbank installers ? Then back them up to 2 USB sticks ( 2 backup s ) as a failsafe . Will that do the trick ?

We can't hear you....the gnashing of our teeth is too loud.

Camel Audio ceasing sales? [Update: CA acquired by Apple]
