all totally valid points - but it's nearly payday and you can get some fantastic plugins starting at $13 - you deserve it have a browse though the list - trust me, you won't be strong enough to resist 👿

just checking Matthew, does your version actually say 1.6 or still say 1.5 (in the credits button) ?

Just and FYI - if you buy from Koby there is a little extra discount but Waves are saying that your extra free plugins might not be added to your account until next week (paraphrasing) if you are in a hurry (who isn't ? 😁) then the plugs are only a $ or so more at the waves site and they claim the extra plugs will be added within 2 hours

I'm honestly not trying to be provocative, and I know it's a touchy subject, but in my view the best policy with WUP is don't buy it you don't feel it's worth it - old plugins continue to work just the same. I've never bothered with WUP and I've loads of really great plugins that were really cheap. Just MO obviously what I'm saying is that with the current sale you can get some amazing plugins for just $13 - shame to miss out because of a 'political' issue ? Software is not for life

that's great pricing ! picking up Scheps Omni Channel not quite sure how the "choose 1 free plugin" part works as yet edit: ahh, you have to visit the waves site to get that

I've a pair of these - love 'em

orb composer looks like it has some BF offer for new users and upgrades https://www.orb-composer.com/shop/ it seems a bit mean, the rather high price for an upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5 but I don't make the rules.....

peaked too early

no problem at all Jesse - it's not your fault and in the meantime it's saving me even more money Wasn't really considering upgrading to the full bundle but I thought the upgrade price is good and I really like the one plug I have (primaltap) - has that kind of eventide type retro vibe I'm sure SoundToys will sort it out - I'm guessing they are doing very good business this week Not being able to buy MORE plugins is very much a first world problem !

hi Jesse yes - I used the link and can get in - still getting loads of timeouts though hope this slowdown isn't eating into Larry's valuable and extraordinary bargain hunting schedule 😱 😁

not complaining about the discount and I was planning to get the bundle if their website would remain stable for more than 10 seconds - I was just noting that my upgrade was cheaper than @cclarry and I only own a single, discounted, plugin ?

looks like they make the prices up ? I only have one plugin that I got in a JRR sale @ $29 (thanks larry!) and my upgrade is $189 ?

I've a few of them from the novation/focusrite freebie thing I don't believe there are trial versions ? I'd suggest people read the feedback here before buying - my take is that they are fine at the freebie pricing

just installed v1.6 of underscore but credits still say 1.5 so who knows

I have a zero tolerance approach to poor customer service 😱

was this the company that gave you less than stellar customer service ?

Larry and Black Friday go together like Indiana Jones and the Arc of the Covenant

sigh - you posted about 2 hours too late for me @Matthew Sorrels I read the VI_control threads and took a punt, and yes it's the 1.6 version. another plug for the Rigid Audio stuff - lost of sounds for very little money.

yet again just weighing in with my own experience of these.....(multisampled drums are my thing !) I had the original Kontakt version of the Ken Scott kits when they came out, using their "infinite player"....... the implementation was TERRIBLE - full of glitches, bugs and various issues. I was promised fixes but none ever appeared. Really very poor - and it was $$$$$ I rebought them when the BFD versions came out (they gave me a tiny discount) - plus I have some of the other ones too. basically, 10 years ago these were ok.....today they seem a little underwhelming. The Ken Scott kits (and others) are not as multisampled as a modern one - and they have limited mic bleed options. Might be worth a punt at those low prices but don't expect SD3 level of quality. Not deliberately being a BFD basher and wish it were otherwise Also bear in mind they are often at this price

^^^^^ agreed, especially because toontrack have some good offers on - I picked up rock warehouse from larry's link (thanks larry - you should organise some kind of affiliate program ?) and for sake of completeness just linking to your other thread which also has BFD BF kits - but same caution needs to be applied

slightly off topic.... I've been with BFD since the beginning. I've a load of the packs including 3rd party ones and you can still load version 1 packs in version 3, which is more than you can say for SD3 BUT It's looking a bit unloved by FXP in recent years - so of the packs are pretty old and some have 'issues' - there has been very little input/updates and if you take a look at their forum it's tumbleweed and massive amounts of chinese spam. I'm reluctant to invest any more into it - compare to Toontrack who are releasing better (IMO) packs and seem to still be actively developing it ...plus SD3 triggers better with edrums

They are on sale on the XLN site and here: https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/1-Instruments/70-Expansion-Packs/3864-Boutique-Mallets-ADpak or at audiodeluxe

Ahhhhh!

not sure their preBF "better than black friday" price on XO was actually "better than black friday" but whatever

https://www.toontrack.com/release-notes/superior-drummer-3/ 3.1.5 - looks like a good list of fixes
