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.

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.

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.

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?

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Yes, UAD doesn't care about customer loyalty, or you ending up with duplicates (or triplicates!).. I really like some of them, but Softube, PA and even some Waves plugins hold their own against them and in some cases are better. At some of the bundle prices I think they're worth it (Signature Bundle for example) and I like haveing them, but you're probably fine without them anyway and not missing much.

Pretty funny comments online.. people are totally saying it's not a subscription and that it's a great value way to buy the plugins ?‍♂️

It's not really worth bothering in this particular deal for them to. If someone takes advantage of this offer, then their first purchase is only $5 so the referral is non existent ?

For new customers, on the United Plugins website, my Code UP9198165 should get 20% off for new customers and you get €10 credit to your account. In theory that should mean if you buy one of €5 plugins first, you get it for €4 but you get €10 credit towards your next purchase. Then on your next order, the other four cost €20 (i.e. 4 x €5), but you can take off €10 on that second order. So you could get all 5 plugins for €14 at https://unitedplugins.com/ ? FireCobra MorphVerb Royal Compressor Transmutator Quick AG You can add other more expensive plugins to the first order and they will get 20% off, but the cheaper ones are best done as a second order.

That's a really good thought and would be great if it did. I think it was only for people that bought directly from them. The dev seemed annoyed at some places even selling it at some stage because he hadn't authorised them to. I suspect he may have been referring to Best Service reselling them, which makes grace period less likely if that was the case.

I think it would be better to get V3 really

The freebie is now live ?

This was a good callout.. I had also been contemplating Sonimus Satson CS for $49, but I started looking into apulSoft after I remembered good reviews on a couple of their plugins and grabbed that instead of the channel strip. A lot more bang for buck and some really cool features with a lot of customisation and modulation. Great plugins. Can't wait to test them all in-depth.

It would be nice if these guys updated to VST3 sometime this century..

On the NI / iZotope side yes, but some of those Brainworx ones are pretty decent. Brainworx isn't well-known for their synths, but bx_oberhausen is great and if it was released by GForce or someone else, people would probably rave about it. It's got a pretty thick and analogish sound. The Transient Designer Plus is very good and so is XLA 3. Even the the 4000G is reasonable too. In the past we got some of those for cheap/free, but if someone didn't have them it's not that terrible a bundle for that money I don't think.

They were pretty reliable with them, but they took a break for a few months and it seemed like they may be testing the waters of not including them as a monthly bonus which made me hesitate a little. I haven't re-subscribed again since then yet.

If anyone has Loopcloud and already owns this, feel free to PM me because I have a nice home for it ?
