Right! So you get to double-dip that way too!

I don't see the problem. Once you upgrade to a bundle, you get a license for that bundle, and all of the individual licenses are rolled into that. But you got a discount for owning MTurboReverbLE when you bought the bundle. If you upgrade to MTurboReverb instead, you still get credit for it. Then, you could eventually get a discount for a bundle that contains MTurboReverb. So you could kind of double-dip with the credits that way... Still, Melda gives you credit for owning MTurboReverbLE either way... Seems perfectly fair to me.

I got this freebie a couple of years ago and quite like it. Two of the presets are VERY usable and add nice depth when layered with other reverbs. But even on its own, it sounds pretty good. I also like the one by Acon Digital on Reverb. I always try that out on my snare. There's something about it that I really like. It seems silly to me to complain about FREE plugins. Just try them out. If you don't like it, don't use it. You're out nothing but a little time.

That's a good write-up!

I'll wait for them to be $23 bucks at Koby's....

Duh. NM. I was thinking both of $28, i.e. $14ea. Sorry, too early. Need more coffee.

Those are two that interest me! Hmmm... ? How did you find this one Lars?

Cool! That's nice! Too bad it's not in English, Unfortunately my German isn't so great. What other sorts of articles are there? On say, I don't know, page 70 for instance? ? Interesting that the Yumpu site has the current issue of Computer Music for you to preview, but not Beat Magazine... https://www.yumpu.com

I had high hopes for this when I got the email. I use the mini SurferEQ from Sonible all the time, which was given out by the Sound Collective a few years ago. I was hoping it was some sort of extension of the Sound Collective. ...then I read on and came to say the same thing.

+1 ! Worth $29 bucks, but even better that it was FREE when it came out! ?

That's a good review and I don't disagree with any of it. It especially interesting to me in that the reviewer is comparing with the same hp I have, the HD280 Pros. After two evenings of listening to them, I don't mind wearing them at all, in fact, I'm actually enjoying listening to them! Thanks @Reid Rosefelt for bringing these to our attention!

From listening on the CB-1s tonight, compared to my HD280 Pros, I find them MUCH more enjoyable to listen to. That doesn't necessarily translate to mixing, but I've never liked how the HD280 Pros presented the low end. Even though the specs say they can go down to like 8Hz, I've always had trouble really "hearing" the lows on them. The CB-1 made the lower frequencies come alive by comparison. I found them more "warm" and open, and they were perfectly comfortable to wear all evening.* That said, as a counterpoint - I had my son listen to them to see what he thought. He lives in his ATH-M50xs. He immediately said he didn't like the CB-1s and thought the low-mids were too "hyped". So a +1 and a -1 review... I'm glad to have picked them up and will likely be spending more time referencing and getting to know them. Totally worth the $34 bucks to me! Thanks for the tip guys! *Disclaimer: I do most of my mixing on monitors and pretty much use headphones for checking FX and referencing.

Agree! +1

Mine came this afternoon! No second email or anything, and it came in an Amazon box. (?) Regardless, they seem like much better quality than the price would suggest - MUCH better! Looking forward to giving these a spin!

Hrmph. Here's hoping they don't pull a Musician's Friend move and not deliver....

How do you know that??

It looks like I ordered mine on Wed 3 hours after Bapu. At least that's when my confirmation email came in... Maybe Bapu ordered the last one? ?

I got my order confirmation email but nothing else...

The lack of branding IS the branding. ?

These were on my short list, then those Status CB1s came up for $34 bucks!

THIS is why I don't like the dongle. iLok got you to buy their proprietary dongle AND buy insurance on the dongle in case something happens to it? All of this to "protect" a piece of software you bought. Granted it sounds convenient right now, but I have already moved my Waves and iLok plugin licenses to the "cloud" and "Managed Devices" my Plugin Alliance machine. It was relatively painless. Of course, this is not a hard drive failure either, thank goodness! I like that I don't have to worry about my Melda, Valhalla and Boz (others too) plugin licenses. I'll probably just uninstall the Izotope stuff - or not. I'm starting to feel lazy again.

Nope, nothing. Would be a pain to go through ALL of the plugins to de-authorize too. I just got this back from support: So, I'm just going to forget it and install on the new machine. When I start getting closer to 5 installs, I'll worry about it then...

I guess that was my question - how? I looked around in the installer and didn't see an obvious way. But like I said, it was late.... ?

Quick question because it was late last night and I'm lazy - I'm installing a new DAW PC. Do I need to uninstall my Izotope plugins or move the licenses from my old PC? i.e. iLok and Waves I just move the licenses to the cloud then reinstall...

Me too! Thanks for the heads up!
