    It is not even an active link so it should be good. More interesting is why can't you add it to your signature? 

    That’s good to know. Just don’t use active links in the text body ?

    As for the signature… Even if they were able to add a direct link to their signature, smartphone and tablet users still wouldn’t be able to view it. I even tried viewing in Desktop Mode on my iPhone’s browser. No luck, Still can’t view signatures… unless I’m missing something.

    Sorry, I actually am not able to put it in the signature ? that's why I put it in the text but basically is just the homepage.

    I think you should be good then. I’m using my iPhone’s web browser to view this Forum. And I actually can’t see people’s signatures for some reason. Only when I’m using my desktop’s web browser am I able to view people’s signatures. So, I’m thinking @Wookiee would be okay with this. Maybe this rule should be revised to take this into account?

    Thumbs down for no links.   See how Larry does it or don't do it at all.

    Actually, they are following the Forum rules. 
     

    From Wookiee:

    Consequently it is asked that you or your company:-

    1. Do not include a direct links in the text body of your posts to your website or products on your website.

    2. You can include a link to the index page of your website in your signature but not to specific products.

    3. Individual's who find a deal and are not actually selling product may place a link in the body of their post

    The real (additional) question with anything Melda is whether you're likely to commit (some day) to buying one or more of the big bundles, and which bundle(s) the current plug counts toward. In this case, MPhaserMB counts toward MComplete (of course), MTotalFX (obvs) and MCreativeFX. 

    No matter how little you buy/obtain a plug for, 35% of the regular price is credited against the cost of the relevant bundles. (Melda gives you 70% credit for the purchase price, and assumes plugins bought via 3rd party were 50% off, so 35%.)

    For MPhaserMB at $43 regular, that's ~$15 credit, minus whatever was paid for to get the freebie. Which only matters if you're eyeing one or more bundles in the long run, but in that case, it can matter quite a bit, eventually.

    A nice bonus is that Melda credits are applied regardless of any sale going on. For example, registering MPhaserMB should take ~$15 off the cost of the MCreativeFX bundle, which is $711 regular price. When Melda has a BF half-off sale and the bundle is $356, you still get the $15 discount, not half of that or some sale-prorated amount.

    Lump a few cheapies together over the course of a year or two and wait for a sale on bundles, and it adds up dramatically. It's quite possible to go from zero to MComplete for less than a quarter of the bundle price, a little at a time, if Melda scratches your itch and you're patiently strategic.

    Thanks for that info. Melda is a company I definitely want to support. Of all the plugin companies out there, they’ve probably got one of, if not, the best policies on upgrades and updates(free forever).  I seriously can’t think of a better company when it comes to those things, actually.

    I gave upo on PT long timle ago , keeping my licence for cours ...but might get rid of it even !!

    Subscriptions were a deal-breaker for me.  Too much competition in the DAW arena to offer subs.  If they ever go back to just perpetual licences, I'd most likely be a Pro Fool again ?

    That's a lot of money.

    They would need over a million users paying $299 per year, for five years, to get back the initial outlay of capital.

    They would need over 2 million users paying $599 per year for two years to make back the initial outlay.

     

    That is a lot of dedicated users!!

    Full disclosure: I am no financial expert. :)

     

     

    Or, just increase the price of subscriptions ?

    If you tell us the style(s) of music you do, I'm certain we'd all have recommendations.

    Thanks for sharing that info.  I'm a hobbyist as well... very much an ITB producer.  My fave genres to produce are Top40/R&B/Hip-Hop.
