The Gold Series is for analog modeled plug-ins only and they must all work realtime. The MPL-1 is in the mastering series where we do not have any restrictions for techniques used, latency etc.

Well, thanks Torben for getting that straight.

You are up early this Saturday morning. I am just 110 km (70 miles) North of you. Coming down to Århus next week, so maybe I can pick up the GAG-1 there and save some on postage and packaging?

tombuur, we only have software for download at the moment so postage and padkaging is not an issue

... Yeah I know.

Is $65 intro offer also the price for us Danes burdened by a 25% world record in sales tax?

Torben,

Does owners of your other products get a added discount with the introductory price like you did with Mpl-1? I'm very interested in the new gate but $65 is too steep for me now and is not far from regular price so it does'nt compell me to sell blood for it but rather wait untill Christmas or next year and buy at regular price. Us penny pinchers like to be kept in mind from time to time

Yes i did why? I believe your implying that kjaerhus has sent out emails, if so i have not received one. So i'm also extrapolating that a discount was offered to owners of previous products and if this is true i'll keep watch on my emails or contact kjaerhus. Thanks for your response!

You extrapolate well, young jedi.

Sorry, I was sent an email this morning, so I imagine you will be soon, too.

OUCH!
... we cry about going from 6.9% to 7.1% suddenly doesn't sound so bad....

By the way is that VAT on everything or is it just sales tax on certain mechandise?

Is that true? 25% sales tax? The most regressive of taxes. Nice.

Here in NJ, USA, we figured out a way to make it extra regressive. We use part of it refund property taxes, which mostly benefits rich people.

Sorry. I'm going to buy this plugin. Got my email . . . gotta wait til 8/2, yeah?

I'm not shocked at the amount, but the form of the tax. In the US, I pay over half my income in taxes, once all's said and done, and get nothing. Except 47% of the world's military spending.

With the 45% or so I get to keep, I buy plugins like this nice one. (Trying to stay on topic . . .)

No, from May 1, 2006 VAT has been handled by Shareit which is a German company and they only have to charge 16% VAT. Customers resident outside EU are not paying VAT.

You should get a mail before the release date.

Yep!

Everything. On top of that there are other taxes on cars, tobaco, alcohol, parfume, water, electricity etc.

20% of the people in the U.S. have no healthcare at all.
