Does anyone know whether Captain plugins go on sale for Black Friday, and what sort of discounts they do? I.e. Captain Cords, Beats etc.

+1

No word yet for this year, but it looks like their sale last year started on Black Friday with up to 70% off bundles.

Thanks, that's encouraging...

There was a major fire that has affected production involving certain chips, some of which UAD cards were reliant on. So UAD had to pull the deal early but will likely resume them later.

All ADC's and all DAC's except for the Apollo 16.

From UAD forum this is UAD rep info:
"We ended them early due to events impacting the entire pro audio industry, namely a fire at a chip plant in Japan. We did this as a precaution, and already have solid plans in place to deal with things long term"

Lynx not affected and I believe Focusrite not affected. Maybe the Apogee Ensemble not affected but anything below that is in trouble.

Also, regarding the Black Friday UAD sale, its fairly disappointing as no coupon has been offered to get people over the line. Its an odd sale too as there are some products that haven't been offered in the sale which is unusual for UAD, especially as some of their own releases (oldies in there too) are not included in the sale. Im going to wait and see what xmas sales bring, they've had some extra hidden coupons in the past that just sweetened the purchases even more. We'll see if they do it again.

Their focus on the Luna stuff has been really disappointing. The new Neve compressor is really good, though.

Any idea if the Soundiron sale will become available at third-party vendors? Or just through their web store? I'm pretty sure Plugin Boutique had the Soundiron sales during BF in the past....

Bets on which Overloud plugin they discount at $29 this year?
I think it was EQ84 last year and Dopamine the year before...

Wouldn't you like to know...to know...to know...............

Dear artists, mixers, producers and deal hunters, is there any good compressors on sale this BF? I'm looking for something that won't break the bank ($30 or something), and I found the Material Comp. I've tried it, and its ok. Is there anything on sale right now worth getting? I have PSP FetPressor already, so I'm looking for something less FET focused. Any advice?

Variable MU compressors are great for busses and opto compressors are great for vocals and bass.

re phaseplant and filters - don't forget the current computer music mag's free Slice EQ offer. That can be used as a snapin inside phaseplant and has an offset/transpose for the entire eq curve which can be modulated, so it can act as a custom filter. If you click "poly" at the top of the effects lane, that gives per-voice filtering rather than global.

Great tip!

omg, finally a sale for SIR3!
I am lusting since years for the non-latency successor of SIR1.

The better deal is to get the StandardCLIP + SIR3 Bundle for $0.50 more ($64.50 total instead of $64 USD) plus the 25% off if you subscribe to their newsletter for a total of $48.37 for both.

There are a few other bundles at 50% off too and you can check them all out here: https://www.siraudiotools.com/purchase.php

I thought NeuralDSP had a loyalty discount for existing customers (an extra 20% off)?

They do, but if you’re UK based like me you get the 20% slapped back on as VAT

"Value Added" is such an insult

How do you get the discount? Applied automatically? I don't think you can combine it with their sale prices - doesn't show during checkout.

[dusted william]

I don’t see the extr discount either

Still a 4% discount

Yeah I dont think its a 70% off discount (50%+20% loyalty), just 50% for all.
