What’s up with Plug-in Boutique’s £/$ exchange rates. They seem to have the ratio the wrong way round!

Looks ok to me.

Found this with BFD3, was only £36 here, $49 everywhere else so would have expected it to be around £45 after conversion.

Friends, Thomann is legit for hardware, right? They have something I want at a great price and it's a bit hard to believe. Has anyone in the USA bought an interface from them and had a good experience? Thanks in advance.

Yup, I bought my Genelec, 7360A, and PSI AVAA C20 from them. Legit shop, super quick and cheap on shipping too. Considering those things are very big and heavy, the shipping cost they add (90 EUR all the way from Germany to SEA with UPS 2 days express) is impossible to get for me without them.

Can I DM you?

Sure thing

Is Sonible likely to have a BF sale on upgrades? When they put a product on sale, do upgrades to that product also usually go on sale?

I think if you log in, you see update prices for products you own.

Sonible had upgrades on sale last year.

I've really gone off all this AI nonsense.

Aye, it’s a messy affair and the horses should be allowed to do it naturally.

Have any of you ever seen Lennard Digital do a decent BF deal? I’m close to pulling the trigger on Sylenth (been demo’ing it for a month or so now), but might as well wait it out one more week to see.

It has been reduced, not massively, on previous Black Fridays, so I'd hold back for a week if I were you.

When I asked if there will be a November or December sale on upgrades (and specifically Smart:Comp 1 to 2 upgrade) so I'll have time to demo first, Sonible support said there will be a Christmas sale on all their plugins. So probably no Black Friday sale on Smart:Comp 2 upgrade. They had a "Christmas sale" in 2020 starting December 14 with 40% off all plugins, presumably upgrades too, which would be slightly better than their intro sale for the Smart:Comp 2 upgrade. In December 2021 they had an "up to 60% off plugins" sale.

I’m in the Uk and it showed VAT included so must have been a fortunate glitch
