I would not mind if someone repeats the really great deals just in case some of use overlooked them.

I never thought I would consider getting Pianoteq because I would only consider getting the Pro version which was too expensive. Now at JRR the price is almost low enough that it may motivate me to pull the trigger. Has anyone seen a very low price on Pianoteq 6 Pro?

The Sensel Morph is 100$ off until Nov 26: https://sensel.com

I was thinking about the Morph.
Are you a mind reader?

I am in!
But then perhaps some retailers may have it for less?

If I remember well, lowest it would go is 30% off. And it’s really worth it. Great to play with all settings, note per note.

I have been waiting for that. They do 100$ off once in a while. Last time I decided to give it a pass, this time I am going to pick it up. I am traveling a lot and this promises to be perfect for a road warrior.

I have not seen it cheaper at a retailer yet.

Never actually looked at CPU usage but they've never given me trouble in Pro Tools. Yeah there are a lot of gtr fx but I never use those. Clarisonix and Monster Boost are great, and I use Degradiator a lot more than I ever thought I would (sometimes I need to match bad Skype calls to even-worse Skype calls and it's very helpful).

It's kind of like Waves Gold (erm, on sale): you get a wide variety of things, some you'll never use, some you will. If you're looking to treat yo'self this week, it's a good one.

Thanks for the heads up on Monster Boost. It seems to be a limiter with some saturation options??
With the volume compensated and used subtly on the Masterbus gave a nice lift and replaced GW Tonecentric. Hope there's a few others this useful in the bundle!

So web search suggests Pianoteq only does 30% off Professional for BF, nothing else... is that right? Too bad... I'd go for Standard and Harp on sale.

Looking through Plugin Boutique deals... this one is hilarious: "Only Photosounder truly allows you to transform any sound as an image and to create any possible sound from an image. [...] Thanks to its powerful and omnipotent synthesis algorithms, it is capable of creating any sound possible. Powerful built-in image editing tools, some yet unknown to general image editing programs, are specifically tailored to enable you to create and edit sounds with ease in ways and with results simply impossible with other programs."

I'm guessing it can't do something simple and useful like automatically converting sheet music to midi?

Was the stutter edit special for $24.50 removed at jrrshop.com?
I was getting ready to purchase and it appears to be gone.

converting sheet music to midi is not simple - I'm guessing it would take you longer than a few hours writing the code to do that from scratch.

but you miss the point about photosounder - it is not an OCR app, it is a sonification app

Omnipotent software that can produce any sound from an image, can you sonify the structure of *this*? So if I run sheet music through it, the result is... I'm guessing not remotely like the music.

whatever - not my fault you can't distinguish between image data as an optic array at the retina and symbolic data as a cognitive construct derived from the array

I'm guessing the Photosounder peeps never heard of Harmor then.
