About $18 for me. I'm not familiar with Molot, but I used and like the free Kotelnikov, so there was that. Maybe I'd bite if PB had an interesting freebie to go with it. First world problems, for sure. I have this annoying habit of not going from the beginning for bundles that I like and want. Then I gradually pick up the individual plugins from those bundles, during sales, to end up at or near the full bundle ...only having spent 10x the time chasing deals, ordering and activating plugins, without having saved any $. Tokyo Dawn, Soundtoys, Eventide, Arturia, Black Rooster, Izotope, I'm sure there's more. Just plain stupid. 🤕🙄

That was my feeling as well. The only no-brainer deals that I came across are still online at audiodeluxe - the Tokyo Dawn comp/eq and the Exponential Audio reverbs.

I find it appropriate that this thread sits right under the one on stuff we shouldn't have bought.

Thanks, that did the trick! I played around with it a bit. I don't love the interface, but it sure seems quite powerful, and the limited samples/presets in the demo sound great. It also feels a bit scary - like something that you'd have to learn to adjust to, instead of figuring out an easy/quick way to integrate it into your workflow.

Tried installing the demo. Reaper doesn't 'see' the plugin. I'm too lazy to investigate.

I tried various permutations of activating/deactivating stuff to make it work with the Syntronik Deluxe synths. Gave up after 20 minutes. It's bad enough that we have a product manager, a custom shop, and an authorization manager installed, presumably to automate things, and they can't cope with the most basic of tasks. It's even worse that they don't release clear instructions on how to deal with their own mess. It's like their devs tried installing it on top of Syntronik 1, failed miserably, then said eff it, let's release it, they're too busy upstairs selling the company for anyone to care.

Damn. I actually thought I might hold out this time, and it's not even BF yet. Thank you, TDL!

99/199 EUR (FX2/V Collection), having Pigments, Analog Lab, and the 3 Modulation FX. I think I had this offer before.

And so, the black octopus swallowed the black rooster.

There doesn't seem to be an upgrade offer. I have a bunch of their plugins and the bundle price is unchanged.

Quite a deal you got there. Also, the Chandler is a hidden gem and my favorite PA guitar amp sim together with the Fuchs Train II. The two are quite similar to my ears, like variations around similar (but good!) flavors.

You can always try stacking them until your CPU melts on top of the overloaded RAM. I'm with you on the redundancy part. even though I have/use/love several of their plugins. But just look at this thing, it's so damn cute!

Not only capable, but surely much better at it than the legendary Nero burning suite. It might not leave you speechless though, our expectations evolved too much since then. Forget how good Nero was, like everyone else, you were probably shocked at the time that there was such a denoise-ing tool to begin with, so you bet that piano sound was left 'untouched'. Now you'll be fiddling with Acon for an hour or so, for +/- 1% soft knee tweaks and careful parallel processing , to be just about content with the amount of sheen lost in the high-mids.

You can use it for most things you'd use Izotope's RX for. I use it for audio restoration or subtle noise/hum reduction on individual tracks/recordings. Comes with the typical modules (de-noise, de-hum, de-clip, de-click). Not as fully-featured powerful as RX Standard/Advanced, but it's excellent at what it does and has a very nice/intuitive interface. Great price, too, I bought it during a Black Friday sale for abour $60.

It's quite odd with PA's system that the $50 voucher is more of a penalty, instead of an additional reward. They really should do something about this. An easy fix would be: - if your cart value is at least $75, it works as a$50 voucher - if your cart value is above $32 but below $75, it works as a $25 voucher

You don't have to register any serial number. Once you've finished selecting them as your 'promo' items, open custom shop, click 'restore my purchases', and leave it open. Then open Amplitube 5 and they should be there, ready to use (you won't need Custom Shop to be open past this point). You need the latest version of Amplitube (so update it in the Product Manager if it shows an update available), as it contains the actual installation for the new plugins. I just want to say that these are awesome, and IK... thank you so much for adding them to the group buy !!! If you were, like me, awestruck by the quality of some of the Neural DSP effect modules included in their plugins, these are very close to those. To me, an amazing addition to Amplitube.

I think it was always possible to use someone else's voucher and, as it has been discussed here and elsewhere, in some months they do seem to be generic (i.e. everyone gets the same voucher). So maybe PA are indeed becoming more generous about how people use them. But just so we're clear - did you use two $25 monthly loyalty vouchers in the same (this) month?

No problem. Yeah, that would be quite useful to know, if it works. About a year ago, when I wanted to do the same, PA were not allowing it, but who knows, maybe they relaxed that policy. People giving away vouchers is probably not a good indicator either way (there are plenty of people who don't get vouchers who are happy to accept them).

I was talking about something else.

You don't need a USB stick with one account, you can use online activation. Are you using multiple PA accounts at the same time, on the same computer, without using the offline activation?

That does complicate things a bit though. As far as I remember, you can only use one voucher of a certain value per account/month. If that hasn't changed, you'd have to use the second voucher with the second account; then you'll have PA plugins registered to (at least) two accounts. As per their policy, you can't use two accounts at the same time on one computer unless one is used in offline mode (license on a USB stick).
