For some reason I've never been able to make sense of iZotope's various bundles and whatnot and thus I've avoided the urge to get anything. Which is a rarity. It's like trying to figure out Sudoku or Minesweeper.

VST10OFF still works to knock the price down to 28.80

Not workie anymore.

I think Novum was also $89.5 a few times last year. Don't think it's ever been below that though.

I'm not jealous because someone is paying less. Good for them getting a great deal! You always have to pick your own point of entry that you can afford, since there's always a new deal or a new product just around the corner. And I did and I can live with it. However, I do feel dumb thinking that it would take at least more than 2 months (6-12 maybe?) for the price to meld another $100 after the "biggest fomo sale season" on a product that is this extensive. Especially considering how, aside from price glitches, Cinesamples used to be quite conservative with going beyond "normal" discounts. Here's hoping East West follows suit... still need to get Fantasy Orchestra and Forbidden Planet.

Musio 1 is definitely worth $199. Hell, it was worth it when I paid $299 and I owned a good chunk of Cinesamples Kontakt libraries. But oh boy, do I feel like a dunce and cheated for paying that price in the Black Friday/Year End promos not even two full months back. I understand ever deeper discounts at some point, but after less than two months a drop of a full Benjamin Franklin sure leaves a bit of a sour taste. Also made my mouse finger twitch as it tries to figure out whether or not Cinesamples moves below the line that separates those that deserve support and those that do not. Great libraries though and especially so if they keep improving the software (which they've already done and seem willing to listen to feedback).

And personal coupons?

Yeah. Coupon doesn't work with the delay that I'm missing

https://vstbuzz.com/deals/56-off-the-felt-seiler-pro-by-strezov-sampling/ VST10OFF gives extra 10% off.

Is this historical low or has this been 50% off ever?

I think it was ~19 on Softube's site a week or two ago.

Cheers for the answers! Appreciated. I feel it's a bit silly to have overlapping products like that at exact same price points (msrp doesn't count.)

So thinking of buying something with that $10 off, since I can live with paying $19 . What's the real difference between Masterdesk, Masterdesk Pro, Masterdesk True Peak? Any reason to even think about True Peak if you own Pro? What's the difference between Shadow Hills - Mastering Compressor and Shadow Hills - Mastering Compressor Class A?

Blergh. Pocketmags still hasn't got the latest mag.

Was around 90 bucks during Black Friday. https://pulse.audio/product/la-modern-percussion-by-audio-ollie/

Still waiting for prices to go down to the 'anniversary deals' that they ran last year in May or so. Hard to pay (much) more after seeing those prices.

What kind of authoring/licencing does Aurora use? Seems like they mention iLok?

If you buy from Humble, I think they offer the installers still luckily. But good point on backing up the actual installers the smaller installer downloads. Just in case.

If my math is correct, the default Humble cut seems to be ~30% which is on par with a lot of other (mainly) video game platforms. From a quick search though, Microsoft is ~12%, Google and Apple are both around 15%. The minimum cut for Humble seems to be 15%, so they still make a "standard" cut even if you set it at the lowest. But you make a good point about also rewarding them for really good bundles. Anyway. Just figured I'd say it because usually saying "charity" somewhere gives an impression that a significant portion of things goes to charity, but more often than not, they get the smallest cut. Then again, adjusting the donation goes both ways as sometimes the particular charity might not be something you want to put money towards to. (Albeit in all honesty, I only think I've seen a truly questionable one once or twice during the ~14 years using the site.)

When buying on Humble Bundle, be sure to "adjust donation", since Humble's cut can be really huge by default.
