TC electronic website still fails to load
I don't believe they're getting hammered for 12 hours straight

It's loading now.

The new version of Acoustica Premium is an amazing bargain with the included plugins. You get almost the entire range of the AD plugins included with it, and they install as separate VSTs so you can also use them in other hosts.

On its own, Acoustica Standard/Premium editions are essentially a miniature DAW environment that includes spectral editing capabilities. For that reason, it's a strong contender to iZotope RX-8. The Restoration Suite plugins are particular favorites of mine for cleaning up bad dialogue for podcasts.

yep, I'm going to get it I've been keeping an eye on it (on the standard edition) and it's the first time I saw a sale in a while... and now that the premium is coming with VSTs I'm going for that one
(also, Equalize 2 seems more than enough for what I currently need)

Focusrite have brought back the Positive Grid, AudioThing and D16 plugin collective giveaways until January 10th.

I had also two XLN Addictive keys codes, which I hadn't seen before

How did you get two?

Am I correct in thinking Reason Lite and Limited qualify for this $99 upgrade like in the last sale?

Sadly, no. I wrote them about this and Jason stated that it did not apply, and that it was a one time sale last year. So the upgrade from Lite/Intro is $199. But you do get the Drum Player and the Europa VST.

Nevermind, Im just selling some Limited / Lite licences and thought this would be a sales incentive

Seems more audio focused? How is it for midi and virtual instruments?

Anybody know anythng about Final Mix Software?? This plug looks interesting on sale at JRR:

https://www.jrrshop.com/gauge-ecm87-mic-clone

But there's no demos, no refunds and when you go to the Final Mix Software site, it lists that this plug has been discontinued.

I'm interested in the plug but there's real chance it could be $30 down the drain.

So Sugarbytes have gone Black Friday but now its more expensive for some existing users to upgrade to the full bundle lol

I don't think it has the capability to host virtual instruments. It's definitely an audio editing-focused program.

For Soundtoys 5, is it worth buying a few cheap plugins (Little x) at $25 @ JRRShop to get extra discount for the bundle on Soundtoy's site? Or the discount is less than the price of the cheap plugins? I have Little Plate so can get the upgrade at $209 rather than $249. If it's $40 rebate per plugin it's definitely worth it...

It has diminishing returns so it's better to just pay
