If you are already on Ableton 10 and intend to upgrade to Ableton 11 once released, then taking advantage of the 20% preorder discount at ableton.com might be something worth taking advantage of.  Preorder discount will go away once Ableton 11 is released in early 2021.  Once you preorder you’ll have 14 days after Ableton 11 is released to complete your purchase.

Note that this is a gateway drug into the crack world that is Ethera. Once you start down this path, there is no return. 

I had same level of self control with Ethera libraries as I did with buying TP during start of pandemic....

I only play these plugins through NKS.  Nothing annoys me more than having to map MIDI controls when I’m trying to work on a song. I had forgotten I even had Fairbanks and Warszawa.  Really fun to play with Evian drum kits and 8-bit synths from UVI.  Although for UVI I use the newly released NKS kit for Toy Suite from freelance sound labs.  Jason always does an amazing job.

Beta link in video description if interested...

Lowest I’ve seen on this eq was $199 late last year.  Even intro was $299 which was crazy expensive. With voucher seems a bit more reasonable.  So far has always been excluded from $29 sales, etc.  I’ve been ignoring it because of cost.  Do you have any thoughts on it Zo or anyone else?

Fyi...if you have toy suite, you already have these.  This is just standalone version.

Fyi...as some of you know I’m a huge fan of nks.

A user made an nks library for phaseplant factory presets.  Works pretty well so far

a new VI app / plugin 'inspired' by the Moog Polymoog.
Intro price: $29 (Reg. 39) no end date yet.

I believe reg will be $49, whenever they end the sale.

Good think you posted this...it made me realize that I didn't even have my Kilohearts
installed...LOL

At least you didn’t try to buy it again ..like ..hmhm...cough..I may have done with another plug-in...

This is a great deal.  I was looking to get phaseplant for a long time and finally  purchased during Black Friday last year.  It sounds great but it is a bit cpu heavy.  Someone in another thread describes it as being equal to 5x serums.  I don’t know if it’s that heavy but definitely be aware some presets will take up alot of resources.  I don’t regret buying it.  Still learning.  I wished it came with more presets in the meantime and so getting three packs in addition to standard presets is nice.  Eventually you’ll probably upgrade to take advantage of snapins which are sold separately.  That is one thing I didn’t like at first but once I upgraded it was a non issue.

Oops! Had already used the voucher at the beginning January😆!. Got confused because PA sent me an email saying the voucher was about to expire.

I got a similar email and just in case, for scientific reasons,  tried to use again the voucher I had already used earlier this month.  Unfortunately my experiment failed miserably and was denied when trying to add it to my cart.
 
All for science of course...

Whatever you do, don’t play a Bm after a D or it will release poisonous gas.

On the one hand, this is good stuff, great prices and integrated in Native Access. OTOH we're in 2021, who knows when I'll need the money. 🥴

You can always sell the Chevy and raid the kid’s college fund. This is is heavyocity we are talking about here.  Being responsible or eating is overrated....hehe

Even if I won the lottery I can’t imagine having to restore 15T worth of free stuff I probably would install thanks to this forum.

Looking at you Larry hehe

good thing I sold all my Gamestop shares last month...this is a much better investment

My reasoning for getting Ultra is that its 50% off regular crossgrade price (@BestService) as a Revoice pro 4 owner and I know I would regret not crossgrading at this intro price. I also don’t have to give up my RP4 license which is nice as those upgrading from V Pro/project did going to Ultra.  For some work I don’t need full RP4 and Ultra seems faster.  Below is a video of someone splitting work between RP4 and Ultra.  Likely RP5 will get a nice update soon.  I personally think anyone who owns RP4 should get Vocalign for free but at $109 not  a bad deal if I eventually want to sell it when RP5 comes out. Ultra also comes with two ILoK licenses which is nice. RP4 only has one.

This library is the “carefully selected essentials from our choral collections”.  I think I’ll wait for the “carelessly selected after a night of drinking” library to add some spice since I already own a lot of their libraries 

If anyone has Revoice Pro 4 and wants a crossgrade to Ultra, found this in another forum $109 versus $139 intro crossgrade. It’s cheapest I’ve seen so far.  RP is probably getting updated at some point but seems quite a few folks use both Vocalign and RP depending on what they are working on.

I’ve been using it this evening. Definitely an improvement!  A noticeable step up from VocAlign Pro and easy to use in Studio One.  I’m glad I have it and it’s a joy.

That said, it’s not anywhere near as capable as Revoice Pro which I also have.  I’ll still use that even on the song I’m working on this evening with VocAlign Ultra.  Revoice Pro has more things I also find very helpful.

Ya, I’m hoping similar update is coming to Revoice Pro.  I’m super jealous of anyone with Vocalign getting free updates to Ultra hehhe

At some point may need to consider hiring better singers instead of buying more vocaligns hahah

To check if you are eligible for a free upgrade to Ultra use following link.  I am not elegible but suspect others that purchased late last year are.

If you purchased British Drama Toolkit either by itself or as part of Ton (when it was offered couple years ago) then it’s $126 until 2/11.

Sounds pretty good and haven’t fully decided yet but I’ll probably wait until 2/10 11:59pm to decide to make this the most dramatic purchase of the year....

It’s been in my cart since the morning but I have $5 left on voucher after purchase ...so wondering what to do with it...been frozen figuring out what to do since then hahah
