    STL Tones AmpHub

    I'm sure that's true, given that I got a "unique promo code" from them as soon as I uninstalled the demo

    For lack of something better to do, I guess, I demo-ed this. With the core pack. Clean/crunch, don't care much about the rest. Compared to the better plugins out there, the UI is terrible. Audio Assault level stuff. If people are actually paying what they charge for this, they should take 10% of that and pay a proper UX engineer to do the work. Forget about balance, emphasis, hierarchy, golden ratios. Basic stuff, scale, size, proportions, alignment. To my ears, it sounds ok. Not bad, not great, somewhere in that great between. I'm not sure I would replace anything I have/use with this. Plini, S-Gear? God, no. Kuassa, Amplitube Fender(s), PA, Nembrini? Nope. Bias FX? Maybe. Probably. I'm sure there's more to it than what I sampled. STL seem to be quite knowledgeable about profiling/IRs, one can tweak the amps/effects/cabs a whole lot more than I did, I didn't try any of the artist packs, and there's definitely people who like them, despite the pretty steep price. I just didn't get any spark out of it, whatsoever.
  3. A minute ago I was reading about the dearth of sales this weekend. Now this. Sweet!
  4. Btw: you can STILL get Waves' Element 2.0 Virtual Analog Synth (and Thorn Solo) for free through July's issue.

    Vertigo Synth

    (Sole) video linked on dealer's page is a testament to old school (well, 2011) efficiency. A 13 second microverse of pure genius. If you're not getting it, if you're not buying it, you're not worthy. YOU ***** NOOBS.
  6. It almost makes me feel bad for them. I like my Waves plugins. I'd probably get a few more, but they've had some better deals in the past (and everybody on the planet knows they'll get at least as good a deal as this in the future); this circus makes the company look silly. As if the WUP wasn't silly enough already.

    Next form (once you put in your email/Ilock) is for the card details. If you don't see this, it's either because you're logged in (my original question), or because of a geographical IP filter. Neither difficult to test, but

    Is it easier to demo this if you have an account with them? Otherwise, 10 day trial with credit card details, which turns into a subscription...
  9. Or, get both + Nectar for $167, as the Tonal Balance Bundle upgrade/crossgrade is still online at JRR Shop (crossgrade from any paid Izotope/Exponential Audio). Voucher code 'group'.
  10. The best sale might have been the one that just ended (so before a new release). Something like $83 for Rx7 Standard, from Elements, at JRR. I haven't checked the new specs, but judging from the pricing for Rx8 Advanced, it probably cures Covid, so it might be a while until the next big sale. By the way, if you can't wait until then (and don't want to sell a kidney to get it now), there are cheaper and decent alternatives. I have Acon's Digital Restoration Suite 2 and I love it - works like a charm. Shop around!
  11. $799 upgrade/crossgrade to RX8 Advanced from Tonal Balance bundle and RX7 Elements?

    Are they the same company? If not, they need to sit down with Plugin Fox, with a dictionary, and discuss the meaning of 'exclusive', over a nice game of scrabble.

    I think other boards/forums might have more deals posted precisely because of what happened to you. Like, I was on pluginfox.co today, and they have a Tokyo Dawn Labs sale on (I wonder if they are affiliated with them somehow, they've been hosting exclusive sales for them). I thought about posting it here. For a second. Then I was like... why bother, copy it, format it, just to have to ask for the topic to be deleted? ?
  14. More inclusiveness is what we need right now, folks. Sure, many of us perform digital labor every day, and we appreciate a sale dedicated to us, but what about all the other people, performing OTHER types of labor? HELLO?
  15. That might be premature. The sense of relief after a complicated delivery does not in itself guarantee the quality of the end product. Although in this particular case, the visuals are definitely promising.
  16. Sorry, King, I hope you'll grab it over a nice BF sale. I was curious to see if the 20% off (for any 2+ products for new customers) would work together with their sale price, but it didn't. Maybe it will next time, and you'll get an even better deal.
  17. You can't blame them though, they are trying to please everyone, from producers on tight deadlines with money to spend, to cheap pretenders like, never mind. But if you're patient, you can get most of the ones you'd want over the course of a few months, for less than $30. Oh, and I think most people would go to the source and take the Nembrini amps (v2), over PA's fuchers.
  18. Just get Plini. Think of all the crap you've spent $70 on before. Enjoy your revenge!
  19. So it's all sorted now? We're good to go?
  20. Class A is better than Class B, unless you're driving a Mercedes. Seriously though, I think it's a matter of taste. For example, I prefer the Townhouse compressor to all their other mastering compressors, just because I love its 'color'. Demo them if you can, it's the only way to know.
  21. I think it's the Nebrini Holy Grail. I also prefer the MRH.
  22. I hear we'll be able to fit most of Komplete 13 on one of these.
