U think I actually care enough that my words are somehow escalated? To what? We are on a forum on KVR lmao.

you can get them cheap cheap now as all the others, so why not?

If I were even remotely interested in UA plugins, I'd be all over that Signature Edition bundle at $299. That's an insane deal with some incredible plugins (there are a few I don't care for but overall, excellent). I own like 75% of the included bundles and I'm still thinking about jumping in.

You can now pick up the Signature bundle for $142 at plugin discounts… craziness!

Wow. You're right.

I just bought the signature bundle last week for $240 and half-joked there'd be an even cheaper deal soon. Here we are already.

Audiodeluxe has it for $150

As it's a bundle crossgrade, I guess you'd need to own at least the essentials bundle first?

Last week, they were offering previous bundle owners who were angry an upgrade to Signature for $150. I guess they're giving everyone that deal now.

Does the UAD connect thing hovering around for the cloud authorisation bother you guys at all? I notice that even if I manually quit the Connect app - it starts again as soon as I load any UAD plugin (I haven't purchased any yet, I just have a couple of free ones).

Doesn't matter, it still works from reports. People have claimed this owning nothing but UA plugins they got free...

No, because I disable it, and only run it manually when I want to update. Just rename it, and it will stop running.

Crossgrade from ANY bundle.

Definitely a good deal.

I just picked up the Signature bundle after going through UA’s support for a discounted coupon making it $150.

Obviously, this is cheaper and it says “any” bundle.

alright, same with me.
I'm in the do-I-need-it evaluation phase.
Besides DISTRESSOR and OPAL (which I want, obviously), I own every other plugin except:

- Capitol Chambers
- Capitol Mastering Compressor
- Hitsville EQ Collection-
- Hitsville Reverb Chambers
- Manley Massive Passive EQ-
- Avalon VT-737 Tube Channel Strip
- Lexicon 224 Digital Reverb
- Manley Tube Preamp
- UA 175B & 176 Tube Compressor Collection
- Electra 88 Vintage Keyboard Studio
- Moog Minimoog
- Opal Morphing Synthesizer
- Ravel Grand Piano
- Waterfall B3 Organ
- Waterfall Rotary Speaker
- Studio D Chorus

I play keyboard synth and I have fun with drum machines and resampling stuff.
Any advice on any of this stuff being really good (except, again, those that I want already?)

So the lesson is to wait next month where it'll be $100 and then wait for the month after where it will be $50 ? :hihi:
