ZincT

Lol, looking forward to it 🎅🏻

They have done some remarkable freebies in the past (Ostinato Brass, Ostinato Woodwind and Ostinato Strings).

Wonder what it will be this year. 🤔

mine was £512 -  I have "movement" that I got in a focusrite/novation freebie deal and Signal.

Not nearly low enough to tempt me and not much of a discount for Signal - I think I only want portal anyway so I'm glad I wasn't tempted

That does seem a bit stingy based on what you already own even though I know it's a great price compared to their normal pricing. I am still tempted to buy Exhale or Signal though at the current sale price.

The guitar I never see mentioned much is the nylon one, SILK.  In addition to sounding beautiful, it's the only one that lets you play different bass notes, which adds a lot.

Silk is the one I use most as it sounds great and has some excellent patterns (also Efimov Nylon Strum). The only issue I have is that it crackles in CbB unless I use jbridge but when using jbridge after a while it produces no sound output. Works fine in other DAWs though so I tend to create what I want in Studio One and then import that into CbB as a WAV when I use it.

Looking at the last deal in UJAM's store....

https://www.ujam.com/store/ 

I have Phat 2 from an earlier cheap upgrade from Phat 1. This would let me upgrade from one Virtual Drummer to the Virtual Drummer 2 Bundle.
So I would get Heavy 2 and Solid 2 for $49 which seems like a pretty good deal. 

Although I am also looking for the best price on that Hitmaker bundle which includes Amber (the only guitar I am missing), Solid 2 and Royal. 

Decisions, decisions.

P.S. I have run out of reactions 💙

I've run out of reactions but thanks Simon!

(cough....cough....$424...cough....cough)

Noice, but then you got the great deal on Portal and didn't you also buy Exhale/REV?

540 GBP inc VAT for me!! But I only have the signal demo and nothing else so it's like buying the whole bundle from scratch. 

A great price but I'm not going to spend that much on a single vendor.
Plenty of other stuff left to buy

I ran over to Output and checked....

Me too! How much!? 😧  

Thanks Larry. 

I have been getting Error #0 a lot lately when I open LABS which I have finally fixed.

If you are having the same issue this may help... 

Looking in the log file gave some clues (load failure on patches/presets) and I ended up repairing and optimising pretty much all the libraries within the Spitfire app. After doing all the repairs I still had error #0. The log still showed errors for Soft Piano and when I looked at the presets and patches subfolders I found some older versions of soft piano. I removed these (moved them elsewhere temporarily) and it now works fine with all 19 instruments. 

Looks interesting. Definitely worth checking out.

Cheers Larry!

One day only! Come one, come all. A feast for your lugholes.

In honor of King Larry...

Lyrics (with apologies to Mr Fagen and co):

ZT’s Verse
When Black Friday comes
He’ll bring those deals your way
He’ll be chasing those bargains
Without breaking a sweat all day

When Black Friday comes
The GAS will flow so free
And before his friends find out
He’s on a spending spree

When Black Friday falls you know it’s got to be
King Larry’s par-arty

Mesh’s Verse
When Black Friday comes
We'll fly down to QuickDealBrook
He's hooking you up with a fix
from his big black book

You buy just what you please
Won't have no socks or shoes
With no money to eat
or even say boo to a goose

When Black Friday comes you'll be the fool on the hill
Paying a VST bill

Fleer’s verse
When Black Friday begins
the King will come to town
(He’ll) be pluggin’ those plugins 
(While) taking us minions down

When Black Friday’s out
His GAS will make us free
Hail our King, twist and shout
One for all, the King and me

When Black Friday hits, the King will bring us glee
It’s King Larry’s par-tee!

Happy Thanksgiving to all  🦃

Larry, don't forget to look out for something tomorrow (or maybe today if there's time)

Oddly that seems to be the only way to get the Platinum upgrade...
and that's a decent price considering all you get!  The only thing not
included (oddly) is the Celestion Modern Vintage...which is where I'm at!
There are 3 EQ's and 3 Compressors in the Pro Series packs...

True dat.

It is a decent price but I wasn't planning on spending that much on PG stuff as there's other bits I'm after.

Cheers Larry.

I should have waited and got the FX 2 Elite upgrade as part of the Platinum deal (I have FX 2 Elite and Amp 2 Pro).

The best option for me at present seems to be direct from PG - Platinum upgrade for $124 which gets me Amp 2 Elite,  Metal/Bass/Acoustic Expansion Packs and the Pro Series EQ and Compressor plug-ins.

Veni, vidi, vici. 

Fingers crossed. Where's Mesh... Ah burning the midnight oil 😉

Don't miss it... especially Larry!

Mmmmmm

These are some useful song writing tools.

Got my eye on Chord Potion at least or maybe do the bundle for the best savings (see bottom of their web page).

The sale runs from today until 2019/12/07.

I was able to upgrade to Bias Platinum Studio for $63
My upgrade from Elite Combo was $73 and I used the code SMCY48MT
to get an additonal $10 off...

I have to believe price was a mistake...but I'll take it!

Wow! That's amazing. It's showing as $157 for me as an upgrade from Amp Pro 2 and FX Elite 2.

Cheers Larry!

I might have missed an update notification somewhere as a newer version than I had installed of Bias Amp 2 Pro was also available .
Version 2.2.9.1438 released on 18th November was available. 

Been waiting for Thorn and was able to use my normal November voucher to get it for the bargain price of $29.99 (would have been $24.99 if I didn't have to pay VAT 😧) but that's still the cheapest I remember it being. It used to be more than that when it was v1.1 sold by PluginBoutique.

I love AAS but I'm a little disappointed by this sale.   The price to complete my bundle before this sale was $99 and now it is $99.   They didn't discount it one cent.

That's the one thing I noticed this year. The price to "complete my bundle" is the same as last year despite upgrading from VA-2 Session to full VA-3 and buying a few sound packs since then.

Thanks Larry. Worth a punt at that price.
