Audio Deluxe is offering IK Multimedia's Tape Machine 80 as a free with purchase option.

They've now added Melda Production MRotary as a second free option.

Been diving down the hole with the surprisingly good WA Productions plugins. Seems there is one specific guy who developed some particularly good plugins for them. You can tell which are his because they always have his red logo in the upper corner of the plugin interface. I still don't think I'd bother with any of their stuff that isn't one of his, but maybe there's other good ones also. He has been active in the past on forums and youtube responding in length regarding his plugins. I've been using Deres pretty heavily and it is one of the best plugins I've come across in years, especially considering the price. Anyway, they are all pretty cheap still for a few days through pluginboutique ($9.90) or the WA direct site

Plugins I've identified that are made by this guy (Emrah Celik)
Deres
Detroubler
Dynawide
Mixboss
BassShaper
KickShaper
VocalShaper
RedClip
BeatQuake

Good looking out, that's the Must Have Tools Bundle 3
And it's $49.90 for a little over 2 days more. Seems like a good buy.

And if you own any one of the plugins in that bundle already, you can get the upgrade price of $30 instead of $50

Edit: I also just found a valid coupon code for another 25% off: "EmailWA"

Excellent, yeah and it's cheaper to buy Deres for 9.90 if you don't own any, and then upgrade for 30. Bestservice had Ignition as a free gift too yesterday but looks expired now.

thank you two, that's some pro saving late night shopping going on

[thevaporz]

Slick hack! Thank you, milesdeem and twal! I used pluginboutique virtual cash credits to get ignition for $6 (and free gift united plugins fireEQ) to qualify for WA must have tools bundle 3 deal upgrade price w 25% off code for $22.

[GreyLion]

I never thought much of WA, but you guys convinced me to give them a try. I checked my PluginBoutique account and discovered that I already had an unregistered Deres license from some unknown previous freebie deal.

Did this deal, ended up at $24 after tax. May be worth mentioning that you get a choice of one of three other freebies when checking out. XTT compressor plug, some vocal pack, and DJFX. I chose DJFX.

Also got a popup offering Ignition at $12.90. However, it's worth remembering that Ignition is in the pack itself already.

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this rabbit hole!

They are not the same. Functionally and sonically.

When I was your age, television was called books! Libraries are still free and you can use your library card to get Tone2 UltraSpace for free from Beat Magazine.

Strange - for whatever reason the serials site won't accept the answer (perhaps the electronic copy on libbyapp is different from the paper copy)

I had the same problem, but didn't pursue a resolution. Sometimes using a different browser on a different device will get you a Q&A that works. If it doesn't, or you don't want to mess with it, contact Marco Scherer to sort you out - m.scherer (at) falkemedia.de

He's the Beat Mag editor and does most of the support AFAIK. He's also a member here on KVR.

They told me, "Give or take a feature here and there, yes. Same core algorithm."

[ben_ita]

Thanks to both of you for your answers.
One more question,owning SSL Native Channelstrip 2, is this Harrison CS any added value?
