Does anyone know if more Toontrack deals are planned in the coming weeks?

Website says Holidays Sales from 1st Nov. to 31st Dec., and then there's Black Friday Week deals, which I think are freezed now. Would be good to have some idea about the upcoming/new deals.

Cyber Monday is still coming so maybe

Sounds good, thanks. Based on past trends do you know how/what are their December/Christmas sales? Not able to get this information using Google search.

Also, wondering if EZdrummer 3 is around the corner. Looks long overdue. Hopefully they do it and make the GUI scalable like in EZBass and SD3.

I was thinking of purchasing these (don't really know if I need all though ;/ but it may relieve some GAS).
Royal Compressor, Pulsor Mu(49), Manic Compressor (29), smart:comp(49)
Gullfoss(130), Soothe2(165),True Iron (39), Trackspacer(29)
S1 5 Pro Crossgrade from Reaper 6 (178), IKM Total Studio 2 MAX Crossgrade (179-36JPs 143)
Seventh Heaven Standard (45)
I am definitely gonna grab PAs Lindell80 CS and their AB plugin.

If you want to save some money on Gulfoss take a look at Voxengo TEOTE for less than half, the crowd on gearslutz compare it favorably https://www.gearslutz.com/board/new-pro ... eased.html

No sorry, and I hope it isn't because I just bought EzDrummer + 2 EZX Packs + XLN XO, RC20 and DS10 so my wallet took a big enough hit as it is

Looks like it's been a drums week.

I also got EZdrummer 2 yesterday, and interested in getting 3 EZX packs. EZbass looks great too. What EZX packs did you buy? $19 ones?

Noiiz Black Friday/Cyber Weekend Unlimited Subscription Sale

$59/year for life instead of $199/year

First year at $49 with promo code nz10

https://www.noiiz.com/offers/unlimited-1653

They mention in their email that it's for a limited time.

I seem to recall Noiiz saying when they started an unlimited sub would never ever be lower than $89 but whatever. I changed my sub and now I'll use the $30 to buy TrackSpacer. Werk.

Omg! I just subscribed. It's possible from a free account. First-time sub here!

anyone else having issues with JRR Shop? went through the purchase process, hit pay on paypal and it sent me back to the JRR account page. No orders and nothing has gone out on paypal.

You need to click one more time... once you got back. There's a button in that page.

Thanks! I had my pages increased size so all the important text was off the screen. Done now!

Yup, spicing up that percussion I got Americana and Rock Solid, mostly because they were cheap I'm still looking to pick up some others but for now I spent enough. I have MODO Bass and although it is quite buggy I don't think I need Ezbass. I had expected to pick up Soundtoys Academic but thats not on sale this time around. Soothe is also quite expensive still, so unless there are some great discounts on wishlisted items this is it for me this year!

Came across this, has to be a joke right?
https://www.pluginboutique.com/deals/show?sale_id=7367

Yes and no. They allow people to "steal" their plugins. You have to declare that you are stealing them on their website, but if you do you can take them for free. It is just a different approach to donationware.

I read somewhere that they had a debate to have a Black Friday price increase instead of a sale but then they apparently settled for a 1% discount instead.

The fact that 3rd party retailers carry that sale is a bit misleading. The price is essentially a joke, but the plugins are good and a lot of people use them.

Ah, now it makes sense. Thanks for explaining! Hadn't heard of these yet!

[Gribs]

And $30 only if you bought VM in their shop. IMO not very customer friendly. I'll stay away from that company.

That doesn't appear to be true; I bought Voltage Core+Electro Drums from AudioDeluxe, but I see the $30 price for Synth Stack on their website. I just had to log in.

I wonder what happens if you just get the free Nucleus set?

Thanks for mentioning this software. I agree with someone in that thread that I could use a Dan Worrall education on this tool. Just futzing with it, I was able to tame rezzy harshness on busses. I'm sure I'm not getting the most out of it though.

It seems like an equalizer built on a compressor in a multiband layout that applies the EQ based on peaks in the passing waveform? I can get somewhat similar results recreating it in that way, yet it doesn't sound fully the same. It's interesting whatever it's doing.

anyone has spare Kush welcome newsletter discount code?

Great choice. I already had XO and RC-20, otherwise it would have been a very difficult time.

I thought of picking those two EZX, but liked others better so saved $40 for them.

MODO BASS is brilliant (although I don't have it, it is my only favourite IK product), but EZbass is far beyond just a bass. It is completely bass production toolkit and for the reason I got EZdrummer 2 I am thinking EZbass could be a great companion to it and a superb bass production software in general. Looks beautiful too. I wish I could demo EZbass. I will just keep an eye on any EZbass and EZX deals in December.

I own both EZ Bass and Modo Bass and get along with both. EZBass is fantastic for songwriting and getting ideas down fast. MODO is great for sound options since it comes with many Bass models.
If I had to pick one though it would be EZBass.

I think toontrack should create a Superior Bass product line. Right after they release EZ Guitar.
