44 plugins for $149 in the Signature Bundle works out to same cost per plugin as 22 Plugins for $74 in the Producer Bundle. 

 

The challenge might be if/when you want to upgrade to the full bundle. You might end up paying lots more for the upgrade for the second part of it. UA favours new customers more and doesn't always give you any credit for what you already own, so outright purchase are often better.

Ok, thanks. So not good enough of an offer, I’ll pass.

You came to the exact same conclusion I did. I think it was $225 for everything before and $199 for the remaining ones with the 2024 bundle. For me, what it added that I would actually want and use, the cost per plugin wasn't that amazing compared to what we were paying in sales a while back. A monthly voucher on top of that which is what I did last time might have just made me consider it.

No voucher stack, no dice PA!

Probably better to just cherry pick the best and wait until they're on a deep enough sale.

It was a joke aimed at people like me who are capable of being jaded by a manufacturer giving out free licenses for what is actually a pretty great plug-in in its category. Be grateful that you didn't get it.?

"Pizza again? We always have pizza!"

I for one definitely knew what you meant.. This time around I couldn't even bring myself to claim it again and have multiples of the ones you mentioned too ?

I finally received my upgrade price from All Bundle 2022, which is interesting. 
 

If anyone has an unused monthly voucher to spare, that would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe you can combine vouchers unfortunately...

they have a bunch of freebies, all good

Very generous freebies and it works for them. I've bought just about all of their paid GE versions after first trying the free ones. Reasonable prices, no stupid and annoying piracy protections that cause trouble. Great developer.

Already posted this one

Hasn't this always been free or is this a newer/updated version?

Always been free, but a good reminder. This is up there with the best of the free plugins

Oldie, but goldie. 

Sure is!

I've been checking this one out more today. Actually quite an interesting synth and good for more experimental stuff. Probably worth the sale price

My only gripe is that we only get a VST2 Windows' plugin.  It works fine now but I don't want to have to give up a good synth when Steinberg drops VST2 support in Cubase.

They seem to have just updated their free delay to VST3 recently so I wonder how far off the rest are.

I don't think I've checked this synth out before, it sounds really good to my ears. Anyone here use it and want to share their thoughts? 

I'd be asking myself whether I already use the existing granular synths enough before considering it. They are a little different and not always my first thought generally, even though I have fun using them when I do.

Are you in US? I checked almost straight after you posted. At checkout VAT was added   

No I'm not, but when I posted it, it was showing $16.98 for me, but today it's showing $19.19 too.

These prices will be excluding VAT though I believe, but it was definitely cheaper a few days ago.

Still on the fence... love PSP and so many good reviews... but really don't "need" another reverb!  (Of course most of us don't "need" any more plugins of any type!)

I generally dislike plate reverbs (personal preference), but some people recommend this as an alternative to use instead of plates, but still capture that plate feel and I definitely prefer it to the vast majority of plate reverbs. I'm glad I own it and have gotten quite a lot of use out of it.

$16.98  do we need a code or it was yesterday deal? $19.19 today...

No it looks like the extra deal is over, or they have fixed up the price. They were the only one with it that price, so it's possible it might have been a mistake. Gotta be quick!

Hopefully one of the updates will eventually be for them to allow you to choose which plugin formats you want to install. I'm never going to use AAX or VST2, as I only install VST3 and yet they keep wasting GBs of disk space, increasing plugin scan times and litter my hard drive. Considering their premium prices it's so poor and lazy on their part.

Judging by the size (each of these come with only 45MB of samples) I didn't expect it to be any good. In fact, these instruments are way more usable than most bigger and more detailed libraries. How is this possible?

NB! By "usable" I mean just playing and using a general MIDI controller keyboard (mine is semi-weighted M-Audio Oxygen). With better keyboards and/or for production purposes, you might want full versions of these instruments or just use what you already have and are happy with.

I was using one of the lite ones last night and expected very little due to the size too, but was pleasantly surprised.. it was much better than I would've thought.

I don't recall seeing it ever go that low before. I wonder if that's the last hurrah before they release Scaler 3.

Talking of services being down, is anybody finding it difficult to log in to Native Access?

It used to login automatically at launch and go to the main screen, but now I am being prompted for a password which doesn't get accepted.

I've never had any issues at all with Native Access really apart from the last two days. Entering the password doesn't seem like it worked and it prompted me again and often on the second time it works. Sometimes it doesn't even load the products and I've had to restart it again. Even relocating libraries which always worked perfectly hasn't been for some reason. It's like it's really laggy or something. I half wonder if it's their Summer Sales and they have allowed enough resources for their backend servers etc.

Yes I did. Thanks.

Tried reactivating it again. Seems to be working now.

Glad you got it sorted and mine activated without any issues, but I did have to pause and remember seeing the email alert about the new Amp Locker version.. after I'd just fired up the DAW and opened it! I guess from here on out, any amp they release will require an updated version.

I don't personally mind though. I prefer having them all in the one app. 

They're pretty generous with the freebie really and for heavier stuff it's not half bad?

5 minutes ago, Kal S said:

I can't see it here still. Tried activating licenses several times, both offline and online method, but it doesn't show up activated under "Full Amps".

How did you get it working?

Have you definitely updated to the latest version of Amp Locker?

No coupon showing up in the cart here.

As Larry mentioned, it's probably because I have not purchased anything directly on the UAD site itself.

 

Oh that makes perfect sense then, I thought you had purchased directly and just weren't sure where to find them. Which wouldn't be all that surprising as I would've thought they might show up elsewhere as well.

In the past it was good to check cart randomly too as they had so many different offers with cart discounts that would just appear, but I don't see them much anymore. Although I do have Signature so maybe I have most of the ones that would pop up.

Where does the $25 code show up?

Should be in the cart. You can just click on that.

1. Yes.
2. Flow is installed in their installer

Thanks Bapu!

I tried looking for the info in their manual and in some of the online reviews, but none of them covered that detail, so that's really helpful. I don't like demos really in my iLok account as there are already a heap in there that have no use now they're expired, but it might be worth it for these particular ones to check it out.

I got the Signature Edition that contained all the current Native plugins for $149 a few months ago!
That was a MONSTER STEAL!

Same! Although it's not quite as good as it sounds for me, as I already had bought a few and you can't sell any UAD Plugins, so my total cost is still a bit higher. No complaints though.. People have paid a lot more for those same plugins, so it's still a good deal overall.

3 minutes ago, Bapu said:

I signed up for the "sub". I'll pay $15/mo for 5 months ($75) and that will get me 150 credits to buy the only plugin in the current Mastering Suite lineup I don't own (Bus Compressor, MSRP is $149).

I'm good with that.
 

Given that's one of their newer plugins, it's probably not going to be discounted as deeply as the others, so that might not be a bad way to pick it up

How does that and everything else show up in iLok? Do they list in there as some sort of locked bundle and is Flow separate as they say it keeps working if you own all of the plugins in one flow. I own the Weiss bundle due to pricing glitch on the upgrade, so I do own at least one of the complete flows.
