If anybody needs a MeldaProduction referral code for the special Valentine's Day round of the Eternal Madness Discount, let me know via PM. I'll be happy to send you mine

(Until Monday, February 13th, 2023:

Buy MTurboReverbLE 50% off and get MDynamicEq for free,

Buy MAutopanMB 50% off and get MFreeformAnalogEq for free,

Buy MGranularMB 50% off and get MBitFunMB for free,

Buy MFlangerMB 50% off and get MPhaserMB for free.

https://www.meldaproduction.com/eternalmadnessdiscounts)

Has anyone tried buying MGranularMB on this deal so far? All the blurbs I've seen list the associated "ridealong" as MBitFunMB, but on the Melda site -- and more importantly, if I add MGranularMB to the cart -- it shows up as MBitFun, no multiband, part of the free FX series.

The other freebies seem to be the ones listed, so it seems like an error/oversight on the Melda end, but I'd actually be interested in MBitFunMB (and already have the single-band version), so I'm curious whether anyone's taken the plunge and gotten both MBs.

I bought MGranularMB off audiodeluxe.com and received MBitFunMB for free.

Thanks for the info!

I also got a response overnight from a message to Melda support; they confirmed it should be MBitFunMB, and that it should work now on the Melda site as well. Off to twiddle some virtual knobs!

From Bargain thread:

United Plugins JMG Sound Orbitron is $29 (78% off) at W.A. Production. Ends in 13 days.

But when I try to go to the United Audio website, I get a privacy error message (in Chrome) and cannot access it. Is it something now owned by W.A. Production? Is United Audio defunct or hacked? I wonder.

Same with me on iPad Safari, but if I decide to skip this and still enter the website I can login as normal, so no worries!
I just now, thanks to your post, saw that they will release a new plugin very soon, any day now

There’s actually a demo for this on the downloads page.

It’s pretty cool.

Thanks! It was on the downloads page I first saw it but totally forgot that there are demos and just clicked on it and saw ”This is not public yet”
I'll take it for spin soon!

Just been officially launched.

€/$ 24 on United Plugins and Plugin Boutique.

I need another Lofi plugin like a hole in the head but I do like this one.

I agree, I think this sounds pretty decent, and I like the inclusion of oversampling. It's definitely on my list to test out. Another LoFi plug in is almost becoming the new 'Another reverb' for me lately. That said, I wonder how this unit sounds on guitar...

Any $75 PA vouchers out there?

I'm a fan of Audient, and a guitarist, so the Anderton's deal on the Audient Sono listed in Bargains was intriguing. I followed through with entering my delivery address in the US, and, with VAT subtracted, delivery and import tax added, it came to about $170 USD, depending on who does the currency conversion. I've read that PayPal screws you on currency conversions. I also have a Barclaycard, which doesn't charge for offshore purchases. Therefore YMMV.

It's basically half normal interface, half guitar preamp with some nice Torpedo IRs integral. You can warm up both the guitar input and one of the XLR inputs with the 12AX7 tube. Apparently it doesn't offer a huge amount of gain, and I kinda wonder what a replacement tube with less headroom might sound like, assuming they haven't done something hostile like soldering it into the socket.

I kinda want it, to fool around with, and the price is right, but I don't need another interface at all, so there's that. If you're a guitarist who hasn't yet spent all your money on sims, it might be compelling. IMHO.

Considering the serious price drop, they may be getting ready to EOL it. No idea whether a clearance will make it across the Atlantic. They could likely just run everything out through Andertons if they want to.

Any ideas if resellers do discounts on WUP and if so, which?

I reached out to JRR but they didn’t respond.

I think https://everyplugin.com/ do, but IIRC you need to email them for a quote listing all the things you want to cover. It won’t be a huge discount, maybe 10-15%

Everyplugin.com is the way to go imo

I see now that KVR, without notifying me, deleted my thread about which developers that are willing to donate to Turkey/Syria…

Anyways, Sonokinetic and NI have teamed up with Save The Children!

UVI Vintage Vault 4 is 50% off including upgrades; prices starting from $149. Offer valid until February 27th, 2023.

https://www.uvi.net/vintage-vault-4.html

Comparing this with the UVI Essentials and Power bundles at Image-Line. My VV4 upgrade is $199, so I thought it might be better to get it instead of UVI Power bundle, but a few important products from the Power bundle are not included in VV4. Nice sales trickery by UVI here.

If (especially) you have not grabbed the bundles at Image-Line, just evaluate which deal is better for you.

[HM]

Already got the big complete collections from Arturia, NI, IK, Korg, Absolute 6, Cherry, and lots more

No more bundles

To much overlap, same emulations, space consumed, to many choices, to little deep-diving

End of era

Image-Line bundle to many eff/instruments I already had, paying twise, not dispensated

Native Instruments, filling up Komplete with PA junk, that I already got, no new NI-substance

Latest UVI-sale with combined deal I got Falcon though for what equals 100$ as part of a order

Looking forward from here I guess only more special and truely unique instruments will be added

Like Xhun Resonheart, or some libraryes that truely stand out

Same with effects

At a certain point the adds to the bundles are being more and more pointless and desperate
