Btw - I dislike all the ”up to” -offers.
You may get an ad which promises ”all our products up to 75 % off”, and then you open full of hope the site, only to notice, that all the best stuff is -20 % and one lousy item is -75%.
Up to your’s...

Sorry. I just did this with the sale at LVC-Audio. I put "up to 50% off" because I didn't want to discount the $15 plugins the same as the $50 plugins. So I guess my sale ranges from 40% to 50% off, with the deeper discounts to the more expensive plugins.

I was also being lazy, and didn't want to enter decimals. My ring finger on my right hand gets so tired.

TDR Kotelnikov GE and Limiter 6 GE are 50% off at Audio Deluxe. Has this been advertised?

FFS just when i was saying to myself I'm not buying anymore stuff.

Good thing i've spend all my money on previous deals, but Kotelnikov is sooo tempting

Just red the Limiter 6 manual - no mention of the oversampling option, is there any?

Yup, it is oversampled already. There are 4 modes: "eco", "precise", "insane" and "low latency". Even "eco" is oversampled, but "low latency" seems to be without it
TDR plugins are usually oversampled and those guys know how to do it right. Correct me if i'm wrong, i'm actually interested in this too

In the no-chat thread, a post says Sugarbytes up to 60% at JRR. But not one product is at least 60% off. https://www.jrrshop.com/sugar-bytes?dir=asc&order=price

The manual doesn’t tell much about the modes, nothing about the oversampling multipliers, etc.:

Limiter 6 offers four different quality modes:
 Eco: Economic mode
 Precise: Default quality
 Insane: Very high quality
 Low Latency: A low latency mode.
Note that this feature has been intentionally designed to be non-creative. The different quality modes purely result in different inter-sample accuracy and amount of aliasing by-products (i.e. the higher the quality mode, the less likely negative or unnatural side-effects will appear).
In addition, a flat, 16 bit TPDF (triangular probability) dither can be turned on or off as needed.

Only Factory is $59.00 instead of $139.00, that's around 60%

Well yeah, but you better run a pure sine test in your DAW or in Plugin Doctor to see how well it's implemented and what's the difference. I'm afraid numbers in the manual won't be much help, unless you see and hear it yourself. Besides, demo limitations are only automations, copy/paste and session recall, there won't be any interruption for a detailed investigation

It is usually the other way around that is annoying. Usually the one that is 75% off is $20 to start with and it is something I don't want. Then the $100 ones are 10% off - the ones I was hoping would be at least 50% off. And darnit! I still check every time in the hopes the one I want is at a price I want.....

[JerGoertz]

Best Service's $20 off has some excellent bargains to be had, the ones I am contemplating:
PSP's new Infinity strip can be had for $88.61, pretty impressive bargain
https://www.bestservice.com/infinistrip.html
Also Waves Gold can be had for around $100 with the discount applied!
Now have to convince myself I dont need what my bargain mind is telling me to buy..

Using the "gimme20" coupon I was able to upgrade Live 9 Suite to Live 10 Suite for around $140USD. Not bad.

Unless it links to a site giving shitty advice about drinking bleach or burning down 5G towers how is that a bad thing?

Thanks! I mistakenly put up Consequence, Effectrix, Guitarist, Obscurium, and Thesys for the wrong prices. Those are correct now.

Only one of those things is shitty advice...
