$199 (full collection) and $149 (classics) based on having registered one product.
Still have to register one more product, though, maybe pricing will change.
Other results?

sure to get some backs up again but...

http://www.sweetwater.com/feature/spring-clearance/

sample logic cinematic guitars one and two...$99.00 each

Newbie here - why get backs up?

Musician's Friend sold several discounted Sample Logic licenses, and for a while, Sample Logic wouldn't honor the serials. It turned into a whole big mess, although I think that everything finally settled out okay (many days later).

I still think Sample Logic believes those serials were used by someone in the supply chain and then sold again (or something like that).

I had no problems with those at Sweetwater. Great deal.

Same here, outstanding service from Sweetwater, they even phoned me here in Scotland to confirm everything was OK.

Does anyone know how to post App Store links? I tried the Copy Link ones and the standard appstore.com/(dev or app name) but they were removed by mods for being shortened and redirecting?

For the Future Publishing Easter Egg Hunt, search for the Computer Music or Future Music App in the store (or Newstand) then:

get it (it's free), download and open
download the free Easyer Egg Issue and read it, it contains a link to the next mag app you need and instructions on how to claim the free issue (don't buy, use the voucher link at the bottom).
The last app you need will have the free code for the mag from the first app you used.

New customer at Zero-G and hungry for kicks?

Could be a shot trying this out to get the new kick drum lib:

$20 OFF* your first order and huge savings when you subscribe to our newsletter
(*Note: the $20 first order discount can be used against any product priced over $30, except Vocaloids).

NEW! Total Bass Drums is a massive library of over 10,000 single hit kick drums. There are over 1.2Gb of samples organised into folders each containing 500 individual kicks.
Price:$34.99

So based on this reasoning the kick drum lib can be had for $14,99 (plus VAT where applicable)

Don't think they worry, over at Waldorf.
I just bought the upgrade to the full Waldorf Edition 2 and they didn't ask for the serial of my LE, which wasn't even installed yet. Got the full WE2 version working instantly with the new serial they sent me.

Well I asked their customer support just in case.. since no one is willing to share where it came from.. hoping they give the green light. Looks like a fun set of instruments! Will post back when they respond with their answer.

4 days no response.. so I decided to give them a go since their customer service is rather quiet.. a bit of a disappointment. I must say sadly as are these plugins.. very very buggy. To the point I'm uninstalling. Bummer!

Hi VitaminD

I had a very different experience. I used the same code and got the free LE. Then I upgraded to the full WE2. I had a problem with registration on their site, and I heard back from them in about 2 days with a fast resolution. I have also not had any bugginess with the plugins. I compose a lot of retro 80's synth music and this suite is right up my alley. I have had multiple instances running in FL Studio with other soft synths with no problems.

What kind of stuff are you experiencing? Try writing them again. They may have gotten swamped with all of the coupon codes & purchases.

Why is it common to have people defend companies.. I see someone defending sweetwater too haha. I'm not blasting Waldorf either... simply providing my experience. The plugins are buggier than the rainforest here.

The plugins are buggier than the rainforest here.

Okay, but here not.. ..all working fine (Win7 x64) so it seems rather that you have a fckd up system maybe?

That has nothing to do with fanboyism, if the plugs work fine for others what you expect they could answer you?

99 euros classic, 149 euros full. Pretty tempted.

[dwozzle]

Does anyone know for sure if the WE LE version qualifies for the discounted pricing on PPG Wave 3.V? Their ship lets me put the upgrade at that price in my cart, but I'm not at all sure it's smart enough to warn or block me if I couldn't actually use it.

I asked that and some other questions of Waldorf support several days ago, still no answer.

So I did all that. But what's the benefit now?

I only have those two-page-issues of the mags. Can we get "full versions" as well? Is there something more to do in order to get free version of the full mag?

Seems to be a lot of work and hoop jumping to get something that costs £2,49 for free

That would be the definition of an Easter Egg Hunt. Running around to get a few quids worth of candy.

BTW: Some past issues are £1.49, so you're jumping through hoops for even less.

nothing at all.. they could say nothing at all.

If you check the forums more closely, others are stating they see the bugs too.. you just haven't run into them yet.. Attack crashed Cubase8's plugincontainer just by pressing on the lower drumpad several times and the serial number box pops up in the background, leaving the end user scratching their head as to why the main GUI is unresponsive (because it is waiting for a response on the serial number box that isn't on top) small things like that.. Glad it is working on your system though!

[murnau]

Okay, that would really p*ss me off too.. ..but couldn't it be a Cubase8 issue? In FL i have no problems.

Arturia is launching the "new" V Collection Classics, and run deals on crossgrade/upgrades, both for that and the full V Collection 4

"As an arturia customer owning a registered product, you are entitled to a very special price on either the V Collection Classics or the V Collection 4."

Log into your account to get your price.

What prices are you guys seeing when you log in to your accounts?

I'm seing €79 for upgrading to version 4 from having the V-collection V3. This is €20 less than the intro offer when they released the V4 (€99).

But what I think is an unforgivable customer treatment is that there is a time limit on. So if you want to consider the offer more or don't have the extra cash at the moment, then you have to buy the full V4 afterwards because no upgrade is possible. So they are basically trying to force people into buying the new version impulsive before the offer runs out.

I can understand a time limit for an extra good upgrade offer. But a time limit for a regular upgrade offer is making fun of the customers in my opinion.
