audioschmaudio Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Yay, it's mister D-Fused Sounds in the house. I just saw the deal on KVR and though I'm not a fan of Waves and won't buy the bundle, I appreciate that you give an extra 32€ discount on top. Maybe I should check out your shop more often. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the post count should've given me a clue. https://everyplugin.com/platinum.html#product-tabs2 73.99 for me and it's not an upgrade. Do I trust Lucy not to pull the football away this time. I removed Waves from my email list. This appeals to my plugin hoarding but bad business model. Edited August 16, 2023 by kitekrazy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirean Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Haven't bought a single Waves product and seen a bunch of people get acid reflux when saying the name out loud. So, from what I gather, they've got decent/good products but lots of anti-consumer stances? The ones I know about have to do with one machine activation limit and that they tried to get rid of the perpetual licences? Any other reasons to skip, what seems like a pretty decent deal with the discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other reasons to skip, what seems like a pretty decent deal with the discount? For me, at least... It's a "trust" issue. I can no longer trust this company. If they can get rid of perpetual licences, they can always do it again in the future... on a whim. They never even had any polls/surveys or any kind of getting customer feedback when they made that stupid move. It's unfortunate because they make some really good plugins. If I could go back in time and do things all over again, I'd honestly skip Waves plugins and just focus on Melda, UAD/Spark and Plugin Alliance. However, if Waves ever adopted the same type of upgrade and update policy as Melda, I'd for sure be all over their plugins. It'll never happen, but a guy can dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waves plugins are some of the best out there. Always have been. Some don't like what they do, some don't like what they did, and some don't like what they think they will do, as a company. The only reason I see to skip is the one license deal. However, they do offer an option to put your license on a USB key. So you can take your license anywhere with you, plug it in to any computer. Effectively making the one license point moot. Then there's WUP (Waves Update Plan). It's a update/support plan that you can buy if you want... but you don't need to. Your plugins will work as long as the OS supports a DAW the has VST support. But it is something to be aware of. In truth, there is no reason to skip on this deal. There are some great plugins in the Platinum bundle. The first four are really great plugins that use very little cpu. When they were released back in the day, they were some of the best plugins you could get. And still to this day, they are really good plugins! Add the Electric Grand 80 Piano in there, along with all the Renn plugins, Waves Tune, and the V plugins... then you've got your money's worth in my book. And that ain't even half of what you get. 60 plugins for $100 equals $1.67 each. 60 plugins for $74 equals $1.24 each. You won't find a better deal on that kind of quality plugins.

But for someone who has no Waves plugins and wants to know why to skip this, I still say there is no reason to skip it if you have no Waves plugins. I have more then enough comps, eq, and such. I got stuff from Melda, IK, UAD, PA, NI, and more. But I find myself going back to these Waves plugin because they just sound great. Because they sound good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Arwood Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I don’t like some of the stupid things they have done, but I’d have to say this is a killer price. There is no way you can come close to this set of plugins for anywhere close to twice this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
