///In sum, a waist of time. More so if you had to go thru what I had to in order to unravel this riddle.
Such deceiving protocol brought ADSR several levels below my previous consideration of them.

Hope this brings awareness

ADSR is just shady by nature I guess ,.. sorry to hear that they are still in business

I remember in 2022 they did sell som Nectar licenses, seemingly with wrong pricing, and then later claimed: "be aware that all keys associated with this issue will be voided" ,.. totally ignoring that the error was on their own side, and thus they where responsible them self to take any losses. No one else but them self, obviously.

(btw. all sales are considered final, at least when sold to EU countries).

They realy bend things in their own favour only ,.. and dont seem very proffesional either

That was an error on their part. They put the price for Nectar elements on the full version.

Everyone jumped on it before ADSR realised.

As a reseller they buy licenses at a lower cost but nowhere near the kind of difference between Elements and the full version of Nectar.

There was nothing at all shady. They came out and fully owned up to their error. I got a refund and the ADSR drum machine thrown in which I accepted.

ADSR is not some massive corporation that can afford those kinds of mistakes.

I've bough a bunch of stuff from ADSR over the years and never had any issue with them.

I hope they will still be upgrading the libraries we bought and that they will keep offering the ones on offer now. There are 4/5 libraries I am "missing" from SA.

If they offer some subscription service a la East West it will be cool for people starting now.

Price mistake? Melda's MTurboComp for $46 USD - https://www.thomannmusic.com/meldaprodu ... bocomp.htm

That's less than half my upgrade cost from MTurboCompLE.

That description doesn't seem like it's been updated, so it still might be included.

[Gamma-UT]

It also shows TR-Racks 5 rather than 6.

So, I would guess the list is the one for Studio 4.

But then again, it's IK. So who knows (though I expect all will be revealed when IK updates its own site later on)?

ADSR support got back to me: "since this is Serum 2 and due to specific legal requirements from Steve Duda and Xfer Records, we're not permitted to offer loyalty credits or other incentives for the purchase of Serum 2"

I checked the ADSR product page for Serum 2 and there's still no mention of that (except for one user review asking why they didn't receive loyalty credits).

Price mistake? Melda's MTurboComp for $46 USD - https://www.thomannmusic.com/meldaprodu ... bocomp.htm

That's less than half my upgrade cost from MTurboCompLE.

I did try in ddk valuta

It's reduced 50 pct, normal "eternal madness" reduction from Melda, and the current price is half of that at thomanns shop, so around 75 pct

Guess it's just a "good price", and IMHO the default melda-prices has grown way to high,
more like to justify the sale-prices

Eventually errors is their own response, any sales
are final

That being said, just like ADSR and their error with
Nectar, both brands have been seen with big reductions in the 75-90 pct range, from time to time, so no reason to assume it's an error, or speculate on the issue.

If it appeals then grab it

Or wait untill next time, maybe Black Friday, guess I have seen reductions up to 85 pct on Melda at rare occasions, Izotope even more
