I also have an unregistered 2.1 serial...

Keep it in that way, and you will get a free MPS 4 upgrade in 2021.

As soon as I buy a new laptop (hopefully this BF), I'll register it. Most iZ products are too much for my current machine.

As already commented in this thread, the iZotope new site "loyalty offers" are a joke.
I own MPS 2.1, haw purchased all the Ozone versions since the ver. 5, all the Nectars, etc. etc.
Now my loyalty is rewarded as the following "offers": Ozone 9 adv. $ 149, MPS 3 $ 249, etc. Most confusing is, that
in my "loayalty offers" list are included several products, which I already own, e.g.the offer me Neutron 3 adv. for $ 249 (!!!),
i.e. the same price, as they offer me the MPS 3.
iZotope may produce nice software, but in marketing and CRM, their competence seems to be in the level of schoolboys´ start-up company in 1990.

Needles to mention, I´ll pass their generous "loayalty offers", and concentrate in using all my old stuff.

Thanks very much.

Even more strange, that this vendor can make much more better offer than the iZotope, to its loyal customers. This $ 99 offer is in the correct level, I think, but even so, the Exponential Audio extra plugins were the only reason for me to upgrade, because the Ozone 9 adv. doesn´t bring much new to the bundle.

Anyone can buy from JJR when its a download...doesn't take a lot of imagination when you enter the address and play with PayPal….usually works out a lot less especially if you live in a country that adds 20% tax...
Right. I just know some of our compadres across the pond aren't wise to this, and often ignore buying from there.
I just tried to upgrade from Advance at JRR Shop and got, upgrade not available in your country.. UK. Fair enough!
Brexit
F*** Brexit, I love being a Euro. But they did have to comply at some point. There was a don't buy here 'warning' from outside of US in the past and I adhered to it, mostly.

Don't think so in this case. I think this happened some time ago with JRR and Ozone. I may be wrong but I think for offers Izotope restrict what vendors can sell in which territory. Expect a similar offer to come through from Plugin Boutique if you are in the UK.

These days given the state of the £ there is less advantage it seems in buying in dollars or euro.

Thanks very much.

How can that be, I upgraded to 2.1 three month ago exactly and my loyalty price is 299! !
Has anyone tried this, is a legit? 99 bucks for the reverbs and the 9 update is getting closer to getting my attention...

noiseboyuk · Post by **noiseboyuk** » Fri Oct 04, 2019 11:08 am

Hmmm... anyone know how to get these reverbs in MPS3 to work? Only an Ozone installer in the Product Portal and no reverbs, and downloading them manually from the website results in a) - being unable to authorise on iLok (no licenses delivered as part of the MPS suite bundle), and b) not being valid 64 bit AAX plugins in Pro Tools.

I bought the upgrade from JRR and got two ilok "keys" for those.

Thanks v much - yes, didn't get these so have sent a supoort message to Recording Software. The serial registers as the full bundle not just Ozone, so probably just an admin thing their end.

also you can get the upgrade for $125 from resellers

often I find izotope upgrades not worth the $ (for example I did not upgrade
my neutron 2 advanced), however this one is a total no brainer imo.
No new limiting algos from 8 to 9, according to the feature list.

yes, you are correct and i edited my post to avoid spreading
confusion

I don't have MPS but I do have Neutron Adv 3, Ozone Adv 2, Vocal Synth (1) and some other stuff. What do you think would happen if I bought the MPS 3 update...? From my account I don't get the impression that the plugins are really treated as a bundle… so maybe it could mean I could upgrade my Ozone 8 to 9 Adv... Any ideas or experience with it?

Thanks

You get publicly whipped and burned with a hot iron.

There‘s a discount in place which puts it at 126$:

Small thing, but still, using the GROUP code knocks another $1.50 off, FYI

Coming Soon: Izotope Ozone 9
