Bargain Center: discussion, gossip, etc.

[WasteLand]

well this is the gossip thread, only one gossip, and no if any interest at all; i hope Plasmonic will be on sale, for a nice price... the only soft synth i miss, that i really want, next to Madrolabs Sumu (what it will be and can do is already out there)...

o well, and as i always be tempted by other deals... already have, but still, for me very minor, and cost-effective....

gossip over myself.. well...

o yes, thinking about Continua, mainly because it is MPE, and pretty capable of great sounds.

smart:Comp on sale... how well does the spectral ducking compare with Trackspacer or MSpectraldynamics? Didn't even realize it could do that, demo time coming up....

Does UVI have a sale usually? How good is it?

Cableguys Black Friday sale announced. Woo.
Check's account and offer is same deal that's been there the last few months. Boo.

I had the same reaction. I emailed them to ask if the bundle upgrade price should be different. I'll post their reply, if they don't respond here first.

They replied in another thread here on KVR...

Regular ShaperBox 2 Bundle price is €89 / $99 – in the Black Friday sale, it is €79 / $89. So you are now saving 72% compared to buying all 8 ShaperBox effects separately (€283 / $328)

ShaperBox 2 Bundle upgrades were already discounted since 12 October as part of the NoiseShaper intro sale. This offer was due to end already – but we have just extended it for Black Friday, along with the NoiseShaper intro price

Anyone tried BlueLab audio plugins? They are now free - don't work on the latest version of Macs but I was wondering if others had used them

https://bluelab-plugs.com/plugins/

I think their database is just down. I couldn't actually check out.

Help eachother with discount for a Sonic Academy purchase?

I'm planning to buy ANA 2 which is now at sale with a 70% discount (result = £ 42.00). However, it seems possible to lower the price even more by collecting bonus points. Which is even more interesting if you're using a different currency, like me > €. You can already get 300 points by yourself before the first purchase (= £ 3.00).

Sign up for a Sonic Academy Account (50 points)
Sign up to newsletter (50 points)
Watch your first video (50 points)
Add a course to your favourites (50 points)
Add a profile picture (50 points)
Leave your first course comment (50 points)

Rate your first course (50 points) > only possible if you subscribe to their plan (maybe with the FREE 7 day trial?)
Make your first store purchase (50 points) > will only help for a follow up purchase obviously
Redeem your points against a voucher (50 points) > not interesting at the moment
Refer a friend - who makes a purchase (500 points) > !

I'm interested in that last option. Now I'm not completely sure if this also works when someone already has an account. But still. There might be another £ 5.00 'available' somewhere

Maybe there's someone who also knows a working discount code? Like last year, when you could get another 10% off with code BFTENOFF. At the end, it's all about the small things. Especially during a Black Friday period, which is already expensive enough. For me at least.

The only thing that won't work, as far as I can tell, is removing possible tax with a vat number.

XLN Audio XO is $53 in cart at Jrrshop with Group coupon.. thats a pretty great bargain. The bargain hunter in me wants to own it at that price but I already bought Atlas 2

For me it's exactly the other way round.
Atlas implemented some (sequencer) stuff I was missing from Xo. Never used it much, will get atlas now,since it seems Xo development has stalled.

Actually Im the same - had XO for a few months, found it a bit unintuitive and busy interface not to my liking, sold and then picked up the somewhat better streamlined (for me) Atlas 2 on its launch and have enjoyed it since. There are three things though that really gets me with its sequencer that you mention - space bar doesnt start/stop sequencer (no hot key assignable to my knowledge), you cant stack say a series of 8 sequencers to play back to back (to build a beat up like a song) and also you cant resize the sequencer space in the Atlas real estate... so far from perfect for my needs, hopefully an update down the line addresses these.

well v2.1 does have a maximise option on the sequencer which is quite a nice view to flit in and out of

Does anyone know if plogue is having a sale? If so, does it also apply to their smaller, cheaper instruments? Looking to get their DX7 emu.

[NinjaToon]

Do tone projects do BF? Thinking about Kelvin.

When do Goodhertz to their discounts, now or Christmas? Wonder if Tupe will get a cut. Probably not.

So far this year has been pretty lacklustre. That cableguys sale is yikes...

"Very tempting!" says the plug-aholic in me. The realist says "You already have enough stuff for the next millenium.".

Who to serve? God or the devil?
