If it were a reorg within Soundwide, these plugins would have been moved to PA and/or NI. It doesn't sound like either would be reluctant to add more reverbs, more synths, etc to their lineups

That's not what I was suggesting. It should be possible to 1) Create a new email (and configure it to forward everything received there to your main email account, so that you don't end up having to read mail from multiple places) 2) Create a new personal adsense account using the new email address 3) move over your existing channel to this personal adsense account https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7367146?hl=en Anyway, I'm not trying to convince you to stay on YouTube. Personally I've had my disappointments with putting my creations on YouTube (for a different reason, their random application of US-centric cultural standards and disregard for other countries' culture, regarding bullfighting in particular). If this is the end of your YT account but the beginning of your Rumble and/or Odysee accounts, I'll be happy to subscribe to the new ones.

My theory is that we are just seeing a recession unfolding. There is a serious inflation problem and prices are going up, but people are also becoming more selective in their purchases and figuring out what items are non-essential. Some companies are finding that they don't really have pricing power because people are choosing to buy nothing and, instead of being able to raise prices and follow the pace of inflation, they have to offer discounts as the revenue streams dry up. When it's clear that the revenue from discounted products cannot sustain the business, they go into more drastic cost-cutting, reducing personnel and eliminating less profitable product lines. When we see "unusually good discounts" let's enjoy them as they come, but we shouldn't be surprised if the recession wipes out a few products and possibly even whole companies when they don't have a sufficiently good combination of both good products that people still need and a robust business model that allows them to weather the storm.

One thing I didn't understand is around 4:10 why you're referring to "singular email address"? Why not create an email account at a free (or paid) provider and configure it to forward email to your main address, then use this new address to create the second adsense account? https://www.lifewire.com/forward-outlook-mail-1170648 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/10957?hl=en

...Or Odysee I recently had to deal with truly distopian AI and a friend introduced me to gethuman.com. I just checked what they have for YouTube and it looks like phone support doesn't exist at all but you may be able to go past the AI and get to a person through other forms of communication https://gethuman.com/phone-number/YouTube

Slightly more expensive for me, then I noticed it's actually $119.40 + tax

Upgrades from cubase are not discounted but I have seen people at kvr reselling their cubase for "upgrading" at a pretty decent price (which could be a good chance too for those looking for cubase instead)

From the Native Instruments plugins, is there anything particularly recommended? (note: I already have Komplete standard)

For reference, wavesaudio has a free tape transport plugin https://www.wavesfactory.com/free-audio-plugins/cassette-transport/

Multiple orders of individual plugins is more flexible than being forced to pick 10 plugins in 1 order. Also, considering that they are putting it in writing that it's OK to gift/resell these vouchers, individual plugin vouchers are much more convenient from this point of view, probably that flexibility is worth the extra $1

Back to business... In addition to being able to pick up to 3, an interesting advantage of this "higher level voucher" is that the list of plugins to choose from is longer, compared to the lower level E.g., Amek EQ250, HG-2MS, Console Amek 9099, Soma, Lindell 50 series, etc.

This weekend - House: House Nation $4.99 for the commercially licensed option (or $2.99 for the non-commercial) https://producerplanet.com/us/article/house-nation-1978/?license=commercial_unlimited The Soundpool contains loops from 'House Vol. 10' of 'Soundpool DVD Collection 16'. The full Soundpool DVD Collection 16 can be found on eBay for $15 (+free shipping in the US), includes commercial use licenses, and it may be a better deal

PA_EXT is described here https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/news/article/items/pa-ext.html I don't see any iZotope products there and the exclusion is specifically PA_EXT (not "External"). FWIW, the F29 vouchers DO work with previously added iZotope products (e.g., RX9 Elements), so it may be a matter of waiting (or contacting support, as suggested) @Bapu no, I'm not talking about the more recent final offer. From what I can tell (based on emails) Soundwide was announced on 4/12/2022 and Forever 29 on 4/14/2022

No, PA_EXT are sales with a limited time that don't become part of the permanent catalog. Forever 29 was actually released 2 days after they announced the Soundwide partnership and the first bundle of PA/NI/Izotope products. I was playing around with different products in my shopping cart, and the voucher works for some iZotope plugins but not others (e.g, it works for RX9 Elements but not for RX10 Elements)

Plugin Alliance has added Rx10 and Ozone 10 to the store https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products.html Ozone 10 adv $299 (when not on sale, $499) Ozone 10 std $199 (when not on sale, $249) Ozone 10 elements not available RX 10 adv $799 (when not on sale, $1199) RX 10 std $299 (when not on sale, $399) RX 10 elem $99 (when not on sale, $199) <end of deal part, start of the rant part> I tried using a Forever 29 coupon and it didn't work, the error message is: From the conditions for Forever 29 in the PA website: For RX 10 maybe the "is not a plugin" logic applies but, now that izotope has removed standalone mode from Ozone 10 it shouldn't be applicable Before the addition of Rx and Ozone, the most expensive plugin was bx_console AMEK 9099 for $449, currently more expensive than O10 (or just $50 more if you look at the price when not on sale) so it wouldn't be that unreasonable to expect the voucher to work (other than because the $499 price tag for the AMEK 9099 feels more inflated than the Ozone prices). Besides "because it would be too good a deal", what reasoning would you expect for the exclusion?

the first time I read it too quickly and it looked like "politicians can analyse, synthesize, and manipulate speech"...

Back in the day, I got the E-MU Proteus Pack Complete Bundle for Cakewalk Dimension (also by Digital Sound Factory)

For video editing with Davinci Resolve you DO want a GPU with plenty of memory HD: 4GB VRAM 4K: 8GB VRAM 6K-8K: 20GB VRAM https://motionarray.com/learn/davinci-resolve/davinci-resolve-system-requirements/ For smaller budgets some of the recent "enthusiast entry" level cards meet/surpass the requirements for 4k (e.g., RTX 3060), or a 2nd hand flagship card from an older generation (e.g., a Maxwell or Kepler Titan) is also a good choice, but trying to use a low cost card is probably not a good idea
