Installed! Edit: Takes a bit... It's now up and running but at still 'Loading Products'... Dang it's taking 30% of my CPU and killing my Internet bandwidth... Not seeing anything in the change log that was affecting me but always good to have the latest (usually). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Changes: 3.5.2 - 2023-09-07 Quick hotfix to address a case where a security rollout was unsupported by our NTK Daemon, blocking users from logging in. FIXED Addressed an issue where a security rollout caused users to be blocked from logging into Native Access Updated error message to link to knowledge base article for more information.

As I had stated YMMV... I indeed was way underwhelmed with its 'gazillion features'. But if you find it extremely useful then more power to you, hope it serves you well. If anyone loves the Lite version and thinks the additional features are worth the additional $15 then go for it. Don't let me or anyone else hold you back.

Their web certificate has expired (as you mentioned). When I try access the site Bit Defender blocks access like an angry dad when he discovers his teenage daughter is going to a party at a stranger's house with severe warnings, etc. but like her (after clicking through 2 or more sets of warnings) I can ignore the warnings and still go there.

TBH I wouldn't expect them to respond as any response may create a liability. The verbiage is (now) on their web pages to cover their keisters should iZotope/NI not be happy with out of scope users buying it. And verbiage itself technically answers the question. Yes either JRR or iZotope could have coded things to prevent out of scope users from either purchasing (please enter your MPS serial number to check if you qualify, etc.) or installing it but neither did probably because it's a friggin headache to do so and often has issues.

Just curious... Do you by any chance recall what the CPU hit was for the lite version? The reason I ask is that the Full & Lite version are the same plugin - just various features unlocked when you register it as Full. It's possible that they both hit have the same CPU hit. Personally I was totally unimpressed by the Lite version and the Full version doesn't have enough (of anything for me) to warrant me spending the extra $ My recommendation is if you don't have PSP InfinitStrip that you throw your money that direction instead. Yes it costs more but in terms of bang for the buck (or Euro, Peso, Pound - what is the phrase out side the US?) you get so much more. But as they say YMMV.

Here's a direct comparison against the competition...

Double check as they don't install under those names. Mod Pack consists of 3 different modules: Choral Phasis Flair more info at https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/effects/effects-series-mod-pack/ Crush Pack consists of: Bite Dirt Freak more info at https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/effects/effects-series-crush-pack/

Definitely passing. Not paying for a 'lite' version of what I already have.

IMHO they should have just updated the Smart series instead of spinning of new versions. I don't need another set of plugins that do a variation (real or imagined) of what they previously released. Of course YMMV but I think my days of purchasing Sonible plugins is over.

Introducing the 3rd level of Sonible's plugins! Sonbile: Smart, True & now Pure! Smart - only bothers to work if your song is a hit or else why bother? True - loyal as a Labrador retriever, will always work for you; even if you use other plugins. Pure - their most bi-polar plugin yet! Will either make your track the most angelic possible or the nastiest most evil soul ripping audio you've experienced. If this is not what you're looking check out the True series or wait for next month's MEH series - does a passible, non-judgmental job. Future offerings: MEH - see previous description under Pure. Transparent - so sonically pure you'll never be able to determine is it's actually being used. The only thing not transparent is the money you'll pay for this.

Thanks @Greg Schlaepfer, great video! Very helpful.

If this deal is so important to you maybe you should take @Fleer's advise and contact UAD tech support. He's mentioned more than once it worked for him.

I didn't get an email but after adding UAD Creative Edition to my shopping cart - when I went to my shopping cart on the right side of the web page was the discount code reducing price to $99... and it worked.

They do, but not by much... I think I saved a whopping $5 (compared to the regular price) when upgrading to the full set from the pieces I had last BF. Getting a free upgrade to FilterShaper XL was a nice surprise.

LABORDAY2023 coupon expires in about 5 1/2 hours... PST - Pacific Standard Time from UAD web site: and AudioDeluxe still has it on sale for $39 for another 4+ hours https://www.audiodeluxe.com/products/software/universal-audio-1176-classic-limiter-collection

Up to 75% off storewide. Last day of sale. Heavyocity Fury is on sale for $79 during this sale. Price not discounted at 3rd party resellers.

Sometimes it takes longer on weekends... and you checked your user area? I don't recall PSP* emailing me the iLok codes on any purchase (but I could be mistaken). *when I've purchased PSP plugins via a 3rd party I get the codes but with PSP I get an email to check my account.

Out of curiosity - where/how are you locating these?

I'd check out the store first and then if you don't see a price you like open a support ticket. From: https://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?id=199TotalStudio4Max2023 Visit IK's online store* today and log in to see the best price available to you. Discounted IK software: Total Studio 4 MAX MAXgrade $199.99 Total Studio 4 MAX Upgrade for all $299.99 Total Studio 4 MAX $499.99

You're right - I was wondering how the new price on Zero-G ETHERA Gold Atlantis 2 was now $5 cheaper ($50.37 with discount). Now if only I could get someone else to foot the bill. ?

That code isn't working for me but ETHERALOYALTY is... "If you have purchased an Ethera product from Zero-G, use discount code ETHERALOYALTY in the checkout and a 20% discount will automatically be applied."

I've been hoping Total Studio Max might drop in price before most of my Jam Points expired this month. I picked up on the upgrade ($139.99) with PayPal credit - 4 payments of $35 over the next 6 months.
