  1. I just bought that in this sale. I've got a couple of other options, but I like how this works and the easy referencing and being able to compare a project I'm working on without having to bounce, like I do with Mastering The Mix Expose 2. True:Level I was going to pass on as I have Smart:Limit and Level is essentially the metering section from that, but in the bundle it doesn't cost much at all and I do like to easy way of selecting reference tracks which isn't available in the limiter. I'll need more time with them to decide how good I really think they are, but sometimes it's good having a few different tools like this as additional checks.
  2. I have both and the Smart:Limit in particular is in a different league than iZotope and has become one of my favourite limiters. Smart: Comp I definitely prefer than iZotope and I prefer the SmartEQ too. The reverb is just different and on par maybe, but very cool features and controls. I haven't used Neoverb enough to say much there. I do really like the exponential reverbs from iZotope though. I've barely used the EntropyEQ, so I should really start using it more to get a feel for it's strengths.
  3. Yeah I've noticed often in these sales at resellers, it pays to check specifically what you're after as they might be the cheapest on some, but not others. I grabbed SmartEQ and the metering bundle which were cheaper overall at Best. I didn't check their bundle though, as I had them all about from the EQ! Great price on the bundle. In the end, I probably wouldn't have spent too much more than the bundle by buying them individually, but I really never expected to want them all! Their EQ and Reverb I had no intention of buying whatsoever until I learnt a bit more about them and tried them. These guys make some very good plugins!
  4. Total cart price at Every = $81.50 Best = $82.66 (but you earn $2.70 in Best Coin). Effective cost $79.96 and I used Best Coin to further reduce the price ? In this instance... Math and saving dollars floats my boat ?
  5. Overall I think Best Service has the edge with being able to use Best Coin and also accumulating some more from buying them too from the ones I was looking at. Both great prices though.
  6. Live at Sonible now too. But the loyalty prices are really just the same as the reseller prices for me..
  7. After checking it out a bit further, for the small cost difference to get True:Levels I think it's probably worth it. The reference tracks feature is somewhat handy
  8. At https://www.jrrshop.com/sonible now too. With code GROUP same kind of prices.
  9. Yeah the loyalty prices at Sonible are often pretty bad.. even for products I own, it shows a price to buy them and for a full bundle where I have all the plugins apart from one, it's normally cheaper to buy the whole bundle elsewhere...
  10. I am thinking about True:Balance, but the True:Levels seems to be what I already have in Smart:Limit which I have and love and would highly recommend the Dynamics Bundle which includes it. Unless I find any compelling reason to have True:Level or it adds any additional features I'll give it a miss.
  11. The Dynamics bundle is insanely good value. I think I paid close to that, but I was a bit cheeky in getting that price it turned out! ? That should be an instabuy for everyone that doesn't have it. Although they are a bit demanding on resources, so may want to demo first.
  12. At this stage, I'm thinking I may not bother. But if something great comes along and it's makes sense to buy it from PiB then it's probably not a bad freebie. If it helped the bundle price then it may be worth too it if I ever decided I wanted that, but I don't think it really does. The full bundle seems the best value instead of the pick x number of plugins to fill in what would be the missing ones.
  13. You can uninstall them I believe, but I think the new major version won't open the old projects so it's not a direct replacement. You might end up with duplicates (or more) depending on how long you own them for. Someone else can jump in and correct if that's not the case though.
  14. Was not expecting that! What a bizarre, but amazingly talented performance! That was a very interesting watch ?
  15. They seem pretty good like that. All upgrades I've seen have been free for me.
  16. I had been wondering the exact same thing as John! I asked them ages ago before buying it and just dug out the old email from them ? "The sound is the same with individual plugins and Heritage Pro version. The advantage of individual version is workflow ease and CPU performance. For example when you need only mid freq arrangement you can use EQ5M only. Or if you need to use hp filters, mid range arrangement and broad band arrangement, you can use Heritage Pro just in one fx slot."
  17. The only advantage is being able to use the components individually. I got Heritage Pro instead and just turn off the other modules if they aren't required.. or just leave them on.. I don't noticed much of a CPU hit at all with them all on.
  18. I feel your pain for what you're about to endure.. They could simply replace their entire tech support front line with ChatGPT and it would significant improvement as at least it would take into account what you've already written in the ticket. At least some of their products are pretty decent and Peter is great, because it's not their tech support helping with sales ?
  19. They'll get to you too, don't feel left out ? But this normally just means it's highly unlikely you use Mac, you haven't upgraded your OS in a while, or you've paid Extortion, I mean WUP ?
  20. There's only two types of Waves customers in the universe.. those that Waves has screwed over and ones that they just haven't gotten around to screwing over.. yet...
  21. Fixed it for you... ? AKA the first annual "Please Come Back, We're Sorry and Will do it Again" sale. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they're just going to extract a few more rounds of WUP and then have another go at subscription only.
  22. Waves.. hell no... Shady as hell and have the most anti customer ideas and tactics. Everyplugin definitely ?
  23. Agreed and definitely replaced the Waves one for me.
