BFD - 'Jazz & Funk' expansion library.

SoundIron - 'Olympus Elements' choir, and 'Hyperion Strings Micro'

Second-hand iPhone 7, case, screen-protectors, and lightning-headphone-jack adaptor ( :evil: ). All hopefully on their way to me, currently :hyper:

'Affinity Photo' - Mac photo-editing program.

FXP almost had me with 33% off Cypher 2 upgrade, but I'd like to save that money towards a wide-lens,some filters, and maybe a macro lens for the aforementioned phone :tu:

My big one was the Superior Drummer 3 upgrade. Not technically on sale, but at a good price in $ from Best Service. Also picked up Can Opener, Sonarworks, and Softube Tape.

You didn't need to use iLok, Soundtoys now offers a serial-only version for newly-purchased plugs.

for cybermonday I put my engineer hat on and got mixchecher pro, softube tape (softape, at this point?), loc-ness, and the cheap soundspot thingies hiku and ravagelite with the bonus coins, see if it's bad as all that or what.

Got that too

Mostly picked up some cheap effects and synths, taking advantage of sales and virtual cash/rewards.

Loom II, The Riser, Waves Element 2, Kick 2 and Sonivox Wobble for $34, $2, $24, $18 and $0, respectively.

For effects, I got:
TDR SlickEQ GE, TrackSpacer, Lexicon MPX, Neutron Elements ($21, $40, $29, $0)

Managed to stay under the $200 limit I set myself :)

Well almost. I also snagged the Satson CS pre-order for $59 in the last minute.
Take a single oscillator, producing a drone. Send it to the wave shaper, altering the tone.
This can be a triangle, Sawtooth or a square. Modulate the pulse width, nobody will care

Waves (audiodeluxe) Flow Motion FM Synth $39.00 Coupon: BLACK2018 -$5.38 Subtotal: $33.62 Coupon: YNY23 -$2.69 Total: $30.93

Etc :)
This is the same method MJ used when he was working on Anthony Marinelli's Thriller.

You should kick yourself for that.

How it works is still quite unclear. You still need to install iLok Manager for it to work so I guess it's not serial only protection like u-he. Because of that I opted to buy it from JRR Shop because of extra 3$ discount than directly from Soundtoys. And that was pretty much the top I was willing to pay.
No signature here!

Bought: Studio One Upgrade, Both Soundhack Bundles (very cool), Fuse Audio Labs Bucket 500,
Auburn Sounds Panagement, Audified MultiDrive Pedal Pro, GateKeeper, Audiority Pre X7,
Kuassa Creme (RE and VST), Tokyo Dawn Nova GE, Harrison AVA Mastering EQ, Audio Assault HQ-2
Neural DSP Fortin Nameless Suite, Mecuriall SS-11X. Thats it I think...

Post

OK, so I did get something on Cyber Monday after all: SoundSpot Halcyon for $1

It's the sort of tool you can easily make sound horrible, but is tweakable enough so maybe it will actually help. ;) Sounds kind of cool to saturate just a narrow band of the sides after a ping-pong delay, etc.

I saw that there's a sale on it. I grabbed it full price a few weeks ago. Nice software. The only thing I find inferior to Photoshop (Elements) is that there's not nearly as many and as qualitative filters. They announced that they will add some more soon, though.
