Hi all. This is my first post, so hello!

Does anybody know if u-he run Black Friday / Cyber Monday deals each year?

I'm looking to pick up Diva (and maybe Repro) but I want to know if I should hang on for another week or two.

Edit: Ok, i take it back. Obviously, u-he do sales now.

Not every year, but we did twice in recent history. Each time the offer was limited to certain products. One time there were extra perks for existing customers (let me elaborate below why I mention this).

Speaking of extra perks, do you already own a license for any of our commercial offerings? It could be helpful for your plan.

In any case, while some people are working hard to make something happen, we have given ourselves a deadline around Thursday 21st to decide whether or not a BF sale would happen. If so, it'll show up by the end of this week in a beta testing thread in our company forum on KVR.

Nope, we're not actively working on new stuff until some of our vapourware has seen the light of day (Hive 2.0 was the first of those, Uhbik 2.0 is next). But we do a few selected sales to compensate for the lack of new releases.

Thanks for that!

I don’t own any u-he licenses yet but it sounds like I should think about it soon.

A BF deal for u-he products is much appreciated! If you go for it, please send an email newsletter. It´s really hard to track all the deals and forum posts for BF.. Thanks!

+1 for Hive sale if possible.

I would love a sale on sound packs for Zebra, Diva, and Hive.

Very soon. We're one last crash bug away from starting this thing on Thursday. Which then is the cutoff date for the perks for existing users. I'm now very confident that it will happen.

Same as above, but the Newsletter won't happen before next week. Keep an eye on our forum, if you can.

Same recommendation as for people who want Diva or Repro: Our BF sales target specific products unless you're an existing customer (where the range would be broadly expanded). If it turns out that we do a BF sale, neither Hive nor Diva nor Repro would be discounted in general.

Those would be part of it (not as much as the discount we did last year though, where it was soundsets only)

I did the u-he collection with Native early this year. Outstanding quality on all of it. The spring reverb, mmm

I want to thank U-He for not devaluating it's products. Yes, that makes it harder to buy, but also means they are valued and valuable. Like buying a classic hardware synth. I own Hive, Diva, and Repro... but would consider other opportunities for U-He products.

i currently own

Hive (v1.x)
Hive 2
Presswerk
Zebra2
Zebra2 The Dark Zebra

would the upcoming sale benefit?

which forum will this be announced in?

thanks!

There has been talk of a Zebra 3. But I'm curious. Is this just customer speculation or has there actually been a U-he announcement that Zebra 3 is in the works?

Do u-he run Black Friday deals?
