That just means, you shouldn't ever leave the office. :D

It would be the full price of Z3.
Thanks for confirming, Urs.

I don't need to evaluate first. I'll trust a man who honors decade-old promises to anonymous people. And gives people like me an opportunity to jump on the train at the last minute.

My fundamental problem is how much I would save/pay for the rest of the stuff. If there's a major discount bundle around the corner, I would hopefully save more than $100.

But actually it even feels wrong to be bargaining about such awesome software. So, I guess I'll get Z2 now and hope there'll be no bundle sale. Well no, I'll still hope there'll be a sale. And if that happens I suggest that you transfer my extra license to some noble cause.

I think everyone should just buy Zebra 2 and ZebraHZ right now so they get Zebra 3 for free!!

I think everyone should just buy all the U-he plugins because they are all amazing and all have their unique character.. that's what I did. the only 2 I don't have are Uhbik and Filterscape. Will get them too once they are Apple Silicon Native

Hehehe, we would love that. The point is though, we want to prevent people from being disappointed if they spend extra money on soundsets and/or TDZ today when they will get the soundsets included in a short while.

Being as transparent as possible here, approaching the switch to Zebra Legacy the best deal is a plain Zebra2 license.

It means that if you buy Zebra2 now, you will soon get The Dark Zebra (ZebraHZ) for free, as it will be included in the forthcoming Zebra Legacy.
And buying Zebra2 before Zebra Legacy comes out will even give you a discount for Zebra3, when it's released. You'll only have to pay a €30 upgrade fee.
However, if you own ZebraHZ before Zebra Legacy comes out, you will actually get Zebra3 for free.

But a €30 upgrade fee for Zebra3 vs €99 for buying ZebraHZ now – well, you can probably do the math yourself.

The point is that buying Zebra2 now is a great deal. It will soon give you ZebraHZ for free and eventually Zebra3 for only €30.
Nevertheless, buying Zebra2 + The Dark Zebra (ZebraHZ) is a great deal for all of us, as it will support u-he and help us get their outstanding software for years to come. :wink:

Well that all sounds great. I have Zebra 2 so will get Zebra 3 I guess.

To avoid confusion: Z3 will be a free upgrade for people who have a license for both Zebra2 and TDZ *before* Zebra Legacy is released. Owners of a Zebra2 license who obtain TDZ as a free goodie included with Zebra Legacy won't be upgraded for free.

Will Zebra Legacy be the same as TDZ or it will have new skin?

No changes to UI or code at this time.

(a lot of improvements to presets though... many banks newly tagged/XYed/NKSed, some "as is").

Will there be new DLL file Zebra Legacy or just Zebra 2 or ZebraHZ?

Just Zebra2/Zebrify and ZebraHZ - anything else wouldn't be backwards compatible.

By the way, I am presently in a need for buying soudsets.
I'm sure that there will be sooo much changes that Z2 patches won't play in Z3, but perhaps could you ease the transition with some kind of conversion tool that would convert what it can (I mean, a cutoff is a cutoff, a vcf is a vcf, etc ...), as a starting to, maybe, tweak "old" patches with "new" tools.
