I wondered whether this included any version of Mocha as it's the cheapest version of Vegas 21. I have now installed it but not sure how to identify any Mocha plugins. Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks @aidan o driscoll for the suggestion. Sounds like a good idea to separate instruments and effects, as I'm unlikely to use any instruments in Vegas or any other NLE. The problem was that I couldn't start the program to change VST paths etc as it was just stuck on VB-ROYAL during the startup scan. I have now managed to get it to start by deleting VB-ROYAL plugins (and restoring them afterwards). It turned out to be the VST3 version that was causing problems.

Anyone manage to get Vegas 21 to scan or preferably skip scanning UJAM plugins? I have noticed that other DAWs often hang on scanning UJAM stuff, especially VB-ROYAL, so it's more likely a UJAM issue. Then again, other DAWs either skip/timeout the plugin or allow a way to avoid scanning on startup - not so with Vegas it seems. I have re-installed VB-ROYAL numerous times btw and also checked for duplicate/old versions of it. Thanks P.S. I have tried adding /NOVSTGROVEL to the Vegas 21 target after the quotes in the shortcut and also starting it while holding CTRL & SHIFT. It still scans VSTs on startup and gets stuck at VB-ROYAL. Reminds me why I went over to DaVinci Resolve many years ago!

Ditto 👍🏻

Their Office licenses also look very cheap, thanks. I'm thinking of dropping 365 in favour of a cheap persistent license.

@Fleer I went with Split Personality in the end. Nice collection of splits. Cheers for the recommendation matey 👍🏻 🍻

Cheers @Fleer I'll have a look at those three Chromaphone ones and Funk Essence as I don't have any of them. 👍🏻

What was it Fleer? I'm still trying to decide but have 36 to choose from! I quite like going for the VS3 packs as I don't yet have VS3 (or CV2 for that matter). They are offering the usual deal on the remaining Pro Series items I don't have - 75 bucks for CV2 and VS3. I'm kicking myself as I'm sure it was something like 56 bucks during Black Friday.

Maybe we should all email them and ask them to do this? They can only say "No" (or maybe actually do it).

Shame that they expire after 24 hours. They would sell a lot more if they let all the offers remain for the week. I meant to get one of the MIDI packs on day 1 but forgot, so that's a lost sale from me.

New in Version 5.4.2 The free update to Melodyne 5.4.2 features optimizations and bug fixes as well as important adaptations to macOS Sequoia. We recommend it to all users. macOS Sequoia: Previously, the function “Private Wi-Fi Address” made it necessary to reactivate Melodyne. With Melodyne 5.4.2, the function can be used free from any such inconvenience. macOS in general: Scrolling with the trackpad has been revised and improved. macOS in general: Changing to another program sometimes gave rise to graphic artifacts. ARA and plug-in: Under certain circumstances, opening Melodyne could lead to a crash.

Well, it was good while it lasted I guess Fleer. Never missed one either!

Yeah, I'd be tempted but I already have two of them.

Dan Worrall's video...

£50.40 inc VAT for me (Total bundle owner since 2021). I'll probably wait for the Dan Worrall video 🤔 Not Dan Worrell but still interesting....

Thanks for the reminder @bitflipper Wonder what the upgrade cost will be for Total Bundle owners. Might have to revise my BF/Christmas budget for this one 😉

Still no freebie. Day 7 - Accordian 25 € https://www.sonokinetic.net/sale/

Useful to know. Thank you for the information 👍🏻

Interesting, thanks @GTsongwriter I have Shaperbox 3 apart from ReverbShaper which I haven't yet purchased. It's 19 $ / € for the upgrade. They are also offering the full bundle upgrade for 79 $ / €. That includes ReverbShaper from Shaperbox and the missing items from their other software. From their non-Shaperbox software, I own HalfTime, so 79 bucks would get me SnapBack, MIDIShaper, Curve 2, FilterShaper XL, KickStart 2 and ReverbShaper (ShaperBox). They also have SnapBack individually on sale for 29 $ / €.

We can only wait and hope.....🤞🏻

I'm liking your logic matey, and I'll be hitting that refresh button at 4pm (UK time).

No freebies yet @Fleer. Any guesses which day will be the first freebie? I'm thinking maybe tomorrow 🤔
