    Total in cart: $102.00

    Total after discount code: $45.90

    Number of Requiem Pro Freebies: 0

    Drat.

    What did you actually purchase? I know some items end up in your account with the list price, and some items with the discounted price. My purchases ended up in my account with the list price and thus I received Requiem.

    Bunch of people on VI-Control (Curse You 8DIO thread) are reporting that they got the free Requiem Pro based on $98 FULL PRICE basis.  ie buy a $100 product, pay $35 and still get the freebie.  Did NOT work for me, I think because after my $48 + $78 purchase (before discount) the value in my account for the $78 product changed to $48, making the sum $2 short.  I had the gall to query 8dio support, but they insisted that the freebie only goes out based on the after discount total.  Not complaining, because I know it's a glitch.  It just didn't break my way this time.

    This is still working. I just purchased Deep Solo Violins and Supercluster for $37.10 and received Requiem as well.

    Currency / Gold / Salt only have value as 'money' as long as 2 or more parties perceive it to have some agreed upon value or worth.
    As soon as that perception fails / collapses it's worthless as money.
    I doubt if anyone here would accept a bag of salt or confederate bills as payment for their wages yet at one time they were both considered viable.
    Gold currently has great value because of limited supply but if a large resource was discovered its value would plummet.

     

    I remember this Twilight Zone episode. It is a classic.

    Don't you see?  It is advertised as 29.99 but the "intro price" is 49.99

     

    No, i wasn't expecting to have 40%off (maybe 10% with YNY23) but these false prices pact you when you buy WUP.  I have several plugins by waves and the WUP is calculated based on the full price (you dont pay it never)

     

    Btw, the plugin in question is amazing....

    I will admit that the intro price is a bit strange, but $29.99 is hardly false advertising since it is the true current price of the plugin. They could have made it $29.99 and not allowed you to use the coupon on it. Either way, I don't think it is a big deal. If you care about WUP, then as you say, it is the full price that counts. I really don't care about WUP so it does not impact me at all.

    I was sitting on the fence about this one. I already have the other three Waves NX plugins. You may have pushed me over the edge.🤪

    Funny thing... Usually we would expect nicer or in the worse case the same price at discounters...

    But this time:

    What site was this? I wonder if the price would be $44.99-40%=$26.99 if you put in the coupon code. That is what it is at everyplugin.

    Farewell as in "goodbye to the physical equipment that we used to model these plugins".  Bx is still in business (although not in very good shape at the moment)

    Full Story https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/blog/blogpost/items/bx-under-water.html?vgo_ee=rMVGiERMGhhmPHxOgaNbfbDTS3YSZcqtiZXl2Jncxx61xH9OULhwDXsOY1iAafOK

    From the email:

    BX has decided to run some short-term sales to help minimize the financial damage, and to help get the team back to work in a professional surrounding as soon as humanly possible.
    Plugin Alliance will forward 100% of the proceeds of the "Support BX Sales" to Brainworx in Germany. You can support BX by buying some BX plugins, or some of their cool merchandise.
    We will start this series of "Support BX Sales" tomorrow with... guess what?
    Brainworx bx_console N for only $29.99 (24 hours only)
    Farewell sale for the console that started the TMT story...

    (the email was sent yesterday, but right now the price is $99, the sale may not have started yet)

    You need to use the voucher code BX-N-2999 to bring the price down to $29.99. bx_console N was on my wishlist. It is no longer.

    I know I am slow, but when did Waves start taxing plugins? I added the plugin to my cart, checked out and $1.80 was added for tax.

    WHAAATTTTTT??????????

    Depends on where you are I guess. I just added it to my cart with the coupon and it does not look like I am going to be charged any tax. I am in Canada.

    BTW, everyplugin.com has this for $27 with the CREATE40 coupon.

    You need to venture out of the basement more often, Doug. We're all upstairs, (usually) discussing grownup stuff. Ask Ed, he knows.

    Glad someone is discussing grownup stuff. I tried that about 45 years ago and decided adulting was too hard.

    I use OBS Studio to record the Webinars I give. It's flexible, free, open source, and gets updated regularly. I know it has a lot more features than I am capable of using.

    +1 for OBS Studio. It is an incredible piece of software. It can even load VST2 effects on the audio channels.
