To me it seems like 8dio have gone for really big bundles this year. Sure, they are selling them at low prices, but if you already have a couple of 8dio choirs, the incentive to fill up with two or three more, even at a good price, might not be immediately obvious. Well, at least not to me. You're basically paying for something you partially already have. Same with strings, brass, woodwinds, hybrid, cinematic, or whatever, mega bundles. The only thing I’ve bought from 8dio recently is Clocks, lots of them, for $7. You can’t get that many clocks for such a low price even if you walk along the beach promenade of some tourist resort.

And for all those of us that haven't got overworldly self control, here's today's additional deals:

Thanks Reginald! I was travelling all day today so I'm glad that you helped spread the word.

Additional items added today to the sale.

Some might call me mad, but I just bought the Addictive Drums 2 Complete Collection. Yup, I went all in. But, to be fair, I already had everything AD2 except the "Dead Beats & Songs" MIDI pak, so the price was pretty reasonable.

Absolutely. But when the price difference between buying directly from the manufacturer, and buying from a third-party vendor, is very small, I prefer to buy directly from the manufacturer. After all, if I like their products and want more of the same kind, I’m dependent on the manufacturer being profitable enough to stay in business. As for third-party vendors, there are many of them, and if one folds up, there’s another one just around the corner. They normally don’t add any value, except for maybe some odd freebie you don’t really have any need for and soon will forget that you’ve installed. If you even install it. Having said that, if there’s a significant price difference, I go for the lowest price. There’s a limit to my altruism.

Additional items added today to the sale.

It is? Wow, thanks for telling us. I’ve used it since its launch back in 2018 and never noticed that. Hadn’t it been for your valuable insights, I still wouldn’t have known. Gosh, what an eye-opener!

Toontrack has today announced Two Weeks of Deals. New deals launched Monday through Friday the first week and on selected days the week after. All offers available from day of launch through December 2, 2024. Today's highlight: Four EZmix packs for 14€ each.

The sale at AudioDeluxe seems to be valid for less than 48 hours. Regular price is $59. This offer is currently not available at UVI. You also get AudioThing Valves for free with purchase at AudioDeluxe (regular price $59). https://www.audiodeluxe.com/products/audio-plugins/uvi-dual-delay-x Dual Delay X represents a unique approach to spatial delay, using unitary rotation and reflection matrices similar to those of the feedback delay networks found in reverbs, but tuned for longer discrete echoes.

Avid offer two different licenses; subscription and perpetual.

And if that won’t be enough, you can loan half a mill from me as well.

Hard to say what’s right; high margins, few sales, or low margins, many sales. Well, the latter has worked pretty well for companies such as IKEA, so why not KORG? After all, they both have four-letter company names spelled in capital letters.

Still doesn’t work for me. Logging in through Korg ID, fetching the code from "Offers from Korg", but no. But I was mostly interested to see if the price for me was still $199, having two Korg Collection instruments. It probably would be. At $99 it would be an instabuy, at $149 I might give it a serious thought, but at $199 it would simply be too much.

Indeed, there was a coupon code in my account. Maybe I didn't see it yesterday because it was found under Account Information, and not the default Account Dashboard. But just as you say, when applied to the shopping cart there was an error message saying it wasn't valid. According to the promo text next to the code, though, it should be:

And no KORG Collection 5 crossgrade deal from individual KORG Collection instruments like they had this summer. Do they know it’s Black November time at all?

Then maybe you should change the title of this thread to "Cakewalk Not Supporting Corrupted FLAC Files". That's an eye-opener.

Speaking of Kontakt GUI Maker, here’s my first attempt to spice up SampleTekk Pump Organ. I do have some problems understanding how KGM works, and currently I’m stuck at getting the release samples to work. As far as I know I do everything by the book, and still it doesn’t work. But it’s kind of fun. And also kind of frustrating. Maybe a Phaser knob will be added once the basics are in place. And also a Mojo knob to make it play really funky. Isn’t that what old School Organs are for?

We are kicking off the holiday season with a huge 85% discount on our preset expansion banks: Now through November, you can get any expansion bank for $3 when you purchase 3 or more expansion banks. You can mix and match both Synthmaster One and Synthmaster 2 expansions. Use coupon code 3FOR9 at checkout. https://www.kv331audio.com/synthmasterexpansions.aspx

And those that missed the one day (glitch?) sale of Kontakt GUI Maker a month ago, can yet again buy if for $5. Regular price was $69.99. https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/1-Instruments/55-Kontakt-Instrument/12139-Kontakt-GUI-Maker

That's unexpected. They have a final sale, ending December 31st. In that sale, their Everything Bundle goes for for €29.52 (regular price €1,485).

Same here. I now exclusively buy UVI stuff directly from UVI. Yes, you may at first glance save a dollar or two when buying from a third-part vendor, but it will definitely not add anything to your potential yearly UVI loyalty voucher. Also, when buying from within Europe, VAT is always baked into the purchase price, so even if someone grumble and say that 49€ is more than 49$, you get the VAT more or less for free. Of course, VAT in Europe can otherwise be pretty extensive, often around 20–25%.

Me too. It took a couple of hours for me to remember that I never had a chance to use the last ADpak out of three in an AD2 Custom bundle I bought during BF2020.

Lightweight. 😀 Indeed. I'm standing in the shadow of giants.

Yeah, I had hopes for an Addictive Keys update, but no.
