(1) There was a flash sale on Indiependent last year ?! And no one told me about it ?! What is this forum coming to ?!

I see a post from Dec 2020 for $49, but I didn't have SD then.

(2) A 20% increase on midi packs (from $10 --> $12) ?!

(3) Waiting to see which TPR can do a little bit better. Looking at you GROUP FORUM, lol !!!

EDIT --> (4) "Promotions will be switched off during the following business day, no later than 09:00 (CET)."

I'm very, very, very happy with my purchase of Skybox Audio's Hammers + Waves - EP 145B

I believe the intro price was about $49. Currently $79, but maybe back to $49 for BF?

Simeon's video is available at: Let's Play The Legendary EP 145 B From Skybox Audio

Very interested, but where is Dreamtonics based out of?

They appear to be charging a flat 10%  (sales?) tax, regardless of purchaser's location. Why do I wonder if they really are remitting this 10% surcharge to the proper taxing entities?

Hm.  I'm afraid that I might be locked into the Spanish language version. Has anyone tried it?

Also curious, wouldn't mind saving an extra $15 . . .

For me, having only the freebie (Little Radiator) knocked down the price of Soundtoys 5 from $229 to $219.

Hey, I'll take an additional $10 savings . . .

I was referring to impOSCAR . . . paid $65, now 29.99 GBP ~ $36 ☹️

Still don't see any upgrade option to AT Pro X perpetual . . .

Knew I should have waited !!!

Thanks, I just checked my upgrade price from V Coll 8 and it is $99.  

That's for

KORG MS-20 V, 
SQ80 V,
Augmented STRINGS,
Augmented VOICES,
Prophet-5 V,
CS-80 V 4,
Prophet-VS V,
Piano V 3

plus 14 soundbanks

I already have CS-80 V 4 as it was a freebie with the Cubase 12 upgrade so I could resell that.

I am tempted 🙄

Yeah, I already have SQ80 V and Augmented Strings.

Guess I could also try to resell . . . or wait for V Collection 10?

Have to see what resale prices look like for those two . . .

IIRC in very late June, on the Antares website it stated that if you purchased AT, you would be eligible for a free upgrade to the soon-to-be-relaeased version. I understood this to mean the perpetual version.

Sadly, I purchased in mid-May and was informed that I was not eligible for the (eventual) free upgrade.

Can't hold it against them, I guess they had to draw a line somewhere . . .

On a more on topic note, wonder what upgrade prices look like…don’t see anything online yet…

I get the impression that they are really pushing subscriptions . . . but I also would be interested in a reasonably priced perpetual upgrade . . .

Which ones did you get and which ones are you hoping for BF?

Picked up PolyM, KoaX, the vocoder bundle (201 & 5000) and the LX122 premium.

Still want(ed) PolyKB III, 4 analog matrix modular, and the bundle of V+ and 505.

If there is JRR-style pricing on StiX, would be open to that.

That extra GROUP or FORUM does make a difference, lol !

With that being said, it does seem (at least to me) that some recent sales (Xils, Krotos Dehumanizer, Moog MoogerFooger bundle) will not get any better (Xils, Moog sales continue from now until Dec/Jan) for BF/CM. So, going through my BF/CM stash much earlier than expected. Guess these companies believe that the early bird gets the worm . . .

Picked up 4, wanted 4 more.

Maybe some coupon discounts again for BF/CM?

Any thoughts on how PolyM compares with Cherry Audio's Polymode?

Guess it won't get any better for BF/CM?

This time I tried by including the free gift (Lifeline Expanse Lite), and it worked!

Guess if at first you don't succeed . . .

Appears to be dead.

Entered coupon code "UPFREE", but essentially said it was invalid.

Congrats to all who got in on it . . .

The trio is 199€/$ or 149€/$ if you own one of the 3.

The piano is 79€/$ if you own one of the 3.

 

V8 + Augmented String owners: $49 Piano; $99 Piano + Voices

May have missed it somewhere in the description, but does the vst allow the pattern to be saved to a midi file?

To quote Agent 86: "Installed... and loving it!"

@Music Software Deals 

Can I put in a request for the Sound Radix website? They don't seem to be on many resellers.

https://www.soundradix.com/

 

Seconded

Is this the software which allows vst2(64)/vst3 to be used in ProTools?
