Bargain Center: discussion, gossip, etc.

@SampleScience
Based on the size of the picture you have added in the Bargain thread, I guess the sale is going really slow
Sorry man, but that is just spam, based on how many arguments there has been in here about having an easy overview in that thread.

I generally don't mind small images that much, but I have to agree with Numanoid on this one.
That's a really big image to blow up phones with.

Maybe they should change that title thread description to;
Bargain Center: (Bargains Only; No Chat; No images)

[Numanoid]

I wish KVR would allow in the settings to disable images for users who want to do that.

Videos can be disabled, so why not images ?

Instead of seeing the image, one would then only see the link

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.

Hardly defending them -- just providing a different experience.

Plus numerous have commented on having bought the plugins with no problem and having zero issues with using them. So your bugginess sounds like a system problem on your end.

Was just trying to be helpful, but hey, if you are going to be snarky about it....

$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?

Same here for having 2 products. Looks like the pricing may only change drastically if you own one of the previous versions bundles

I have $149 for the V4 collection. I own licenses for SEM V, Modular V, and SparkLE / Spark 2.

I think this is the same deal as when V4 was announce - what around Xmas time? I was tempted seriously... am again. I have no need to buy all those plugins, but it might be worth it just for the Vox, Wurli, and Matrix models.

The Waves EMI TG12345??

Yes, that, too. I just haven't had time to put it up yet.

Any news on the TG12345 Uncle E?

[soundbylaura]

East/West sent out an email offering a "crossgrade" special for Hollywood Orchestra Diamond on an external USB3 drive for $599.

This seems like a great deal and I'd like to jump on it. I'm concerned, though about the following:

"One or more products in your cart is an electronic "license-only" product.
To order this selection you must already have the installation discs, Terapack or Complete Composers Collection with the content. License titles are not available for instant download."

It doesn't indicate which product that is. It's a little confusing because they're sending the hard drive - is that why I get the above message?

Though it says "crossgrade" in the email they sent, if you go to the site you can add the product to your cart as a "first purchase" option.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The plugins are buggier than the rainforest here.

That's a great quote!

I thought it fitting.

Understood. But I'm not seeing the value in telling me they work fine there.. perhaps you are using a different sequencer, OS, or combination of other scenarios that preclude you seeing the bugs I'm experiencing. They don't diminish the fact that I am having a completely different experience than you; the bugs don't disappear simply because you don't see them.

However, in hindsight, I should have worded my responses to you more friendly and I apologize for that!

i had a beatstep and analog lab for the same deal. Was worth it for spark and solina alone, with everything else being a bonus.

That's cool. We all have bad days. No hard feelings on my part. It is off topic now in this thread, but a discussion of OS, sequencers, and combo's might get to the root of your issues elsewhere. For what it is worth, I am using it without issues in Studio One Pro 2 and FL Studio 11 on Windows 7 x64 with 16GB's of ram.

Almost there. So if registering two products (Beatstep and Analog Lab) lead to $149 for the full collection (and $99 for the Classics version), apparently having a third product registered such as Mini V won't get us a better price?

[murnau]

No, i have three products = $149 for full $99 for classic.. thats what i can confirm.

[Sim.Sky]

now THAT's a great deal from waves - their h-comp is now on sale from previously USD 59, now only for the original price of USD 175! Be quick, this deal ends in less than 48 hours though their easter sale is pretty disappointing this year IMHO, at least they made it quite entertaining

I think the price used to be $100 or $150. From my experience, less than 1% of people buy Waves when they're not on sale so it's sort of meaningless, anyway.

[Fleer]

Cheers murnau.
Anyone with four products registered?
