Does anyone know if you can redeem the 25€ NI-Voucher when buying u-he products in the NI-Shop?

These 25$ vouchers are notoriously worthless actually because of their limits.

I'd generally agree but did manage to use it to get a Massive X expansion for around £3

I was temped by a Massive X expansion as well, but then realised that I'll get all of them for free when I update next summer my Komplete package for half-price. The cheapest way to get NI (and IK Multimedia and and) stuff is IMO to get a complete bundle and update them during sales. The time in between isn't too long that I easily can wait for the new items until that date.

That's true, but tbh, there's very little that particularly interests me in the newer Komplete that makes me want to upgrade from v.12. Until the point 3rd party Kontakt creators move exclusively to v7, I can live without the upgrade.

And the novelty of being able to use an NI voucher was worth the price of a coffee

Sorry if this was mentioned before:

Avid Pro Tools is free for 3 months (via Focusrite) and using the Avid Account you can get free content such as a Plugin Alliance voucher (I used it for Thorn), IK Multimedia, and more.

Thanks! Totally would've missed this but got the 9000J for free

Thanks to both of you but how does one obtain the voucher? I've created an Avid account but don't see any PA voucher.

You have to go to "My Products", then "Pro Tools Inner Circle".

Hit on claim and redeem!

Thanks but I don't see that option under My Products:

There's nothing under My Special Offers either.

Hit "View My Products"

Might have skipped that step .. oooops

I tried all the options. Nothing under View My Products other than Avid Links and Pro Tools Intro.

Do we actually have to install Pro Tools Intro for the offers to show?

Exactly what I'm seeing too. How does Focusrite come into it? Do you need hardware with them or something...? I have an account there (though technically Novation)

Yes I have a hardware Focusrite 6i6 so that's what has qualified me for all the freebies over the years.

I only have the Midnight(?) suite that came free on a magazine cover disk once but that's let me grab freebies like the current Massive offer.

I was wondering what Focusrite had to do with this Avid offer, can't see it mentioned anywhere but here. Don't think I'm in Avids Inner Circle (maybe for the best )

Focusrite has a Plugin Collective which gives you access to free or discounted software. This time it's a 3-month Pro Tools license which also gives you access to their freebies.

Well that's awesome! I always thought we had to have Focusrite hardware.

Yes the Avid code is in our Focusrite "My Software" section. Use it to register at Avid and supposedly that's where the free plugins are but I've hit a wall and don't see any vouchers in my account. Maybe it takes some time for them to show up.

Is this what everybody is referring to in our FR accounts? That's the link I used:

Avid 122122-2.png

[GaryG]

I don't have that link (quite rightly I guess) so would explain not seeing anything out Avid. Fair enough.

While I'm here, noticed an Ozone 9 Elements code on my account I'll never use;

SN-OZONE9ELE-CDY8-P9E3-ZZAH-JAYE

Must be someone who doesn't have it yet...
