So if we own Z2 & Hz all we need to do is download the Legacy installer on the 15th ?

Yes.

Then wait for the free upgrade to Z3 when that's ready.

You gotta love a company that appreciates loyal customers like that.

I was just at Starbucks yesterday for the first time in a while... that doesn't seem too far off.

As a Zebra 2 owner this means I'm getting The Dark Zebra for free (+other soundsets)... yay!

Awesome deal! One of the coolest dudes, companies, some of the best synths and FX, some of the best sound designers. Just bought Zebra.

Man u-he is just great! Does it make a difference if I bought Zebra 2 second hand or from the u-he website?

Now, if I only wanted Zebra...

It's a great synth, but I know that I'd only use it as a preset player.

No difference. The only difference is made between whether the originally bought license is a classic Zebra2 or, after the switch, a new Zebra Legacy, and the only difference (apart from price) is the upgrade path to Z3 (or not).

Ok, just to make sure I got it right because I got confused by the "(or not)" at the end: The only reason I'd have to pay full price for Z3 is if I don't own Zebra before 15th November?

This is a good deal but it took me parsing it out to make sense of it lol. Here's how I figure it. If we assume Z3 costs €199 like Z2:

Buy Z2 before 11/15:
€199 Zebra2
€0 Dark Zebra and soundsets on 11/15
€30 for Zebra3 (for already owning Z2 + DZ)
------------------
Outcome: paid €228

Buy Zebra Legacy on 11/15:
€99 - Zebra2 + DZ and soundsets
€199 - Zebra3 (no discount)
------------------
Outcome: paid €298

But if we assume Z3 will be more like €299 (since if you purchased Z2 + DZ you paid €298 and you're getting Z3 for free):

Buy Z2 before 11/15:
€199 Zebra2
€0 Dark Zebra on 11/15
€30 for Zebra3 (for already owning Z2 + DZ)
------------------
Outcome: paid €228

Buy Zebra Legacy on 11/15:
€99 - Zebra2 + DZ
€299 - Zebra3 (no discount)
------------------
Outcome: paid €398

Now buying Z2 before 11/15 is an even better deal. All of this is assuming you don't already own a Zebra product and want to purchase Z3 whenever it comes out. If the latter isn't true, then Legacy is an even better deal.

Not sure the deal counts if you buy from a distributor. Urs can clarify how that works.

Fwiw, i think buying it used or at another seller also applies to the whole deal. Why shouldn't it in the end?
