I just checked my Waves account and to renew my WUP would cost $240, so that's not going to happen. However, there's an option to upgrade Gold to Gold + RenMaxx for $42. I am assuming that this will renew the WUP for all of my Gold products as well as adding the Renaissance plugins that are missing from Gold. That's tempting but I always check Everyplugin and they don't seem to list Gold + RenMaxx so maybe it's only available through Waves direct. Anyway, I will email Koby to check.

Thanks Fleer! 2Gb of samples. Sounds great for a freebie. ?

Thanks Larry! Only a 55Mb download and certainly sounds very spooky ? Will add it to my Halloween track for sure. Certain notes almost sound like a human scream ?

Based on all of the above plaudits I am trying the demo and liking it alot! Insert here --> DAW User's Mantra

Same here Grem. I used to get the same issue as Wibbles and Paulo but it was fixed for me many versions ago. I guess it's a tricky one to fix for every scenario.

I like the new Waves Central. That's about all I can say as my Gold products are v9 with no WUP left so I am not able to upgrade the GUI of R products. I have 30 Waves products out of which 9 are version 9 (including Gold), and the remainder version 10 with only 4 of those upgradeable to v11. I did the upgrades so I now have 9 which are v9, 17 are v10 and 4 are v11. I also cleared the cache (2.5 Gb recovered) and ran the version organiser. All my Waves plugins (v9, 10 and 11) still work fine after this. The only issue I have is when Waveshell5 is scanned I get a "missing licence engine" popup. I press "skip" and the scan completes fine. I have a support ticket with Waves for this.

Should be a good Christmas gift for my daughter! Cheers Larry

I just visited their website to check that I was on the latest version of Vocalign Project (I wasn't - there's a new VST3 ARA2 version 3.6.0.5). It then popped up a message stating that if I subscribe to their newsletter I will receive a Free Groove3 30 Days All Access Pass. Sure enough I just received the code by email almost immediately and added it to my Groove3 account. I got the 1 Year Groove3 deal recently with iZotope MPS3 upgrade so this just extended the end date by 30 days. https://www.synchroarts.com/

Agree with everything you say! Wait 'til you try the slide bass. One of the best sounding slides in a bass plugin imho. Used it in a track recently. There's actually two ways of doing it but I just used the pitch wheel method.

Looks nice Fleer. I'm tempted by their EQ Ranger Plus; could be a time saver.

Good deal on MODO Bass which is my goto Bass plugin. A similar deal on MODO Drums and I'd be all over it.

Already have Waves Vocal Rider (my preferred), MAutoVolume and Hornet AutoGainPro but at this price I will definitely try the demo. Update: To try the demo you need to download the ERA4 Standard Bundle from Accusonus and deselect all plugins apart from Voice Leveler on installation. You need to create an account with them but if you got the recent Regroover freebie from PluginBoutique you probably already have an account.

When I have purchased from them they always charge the UK VAT rate (I am in the UK) so I guess it will be as per your country's rate.

Thanks Matthew!

Thanks saved me the bother ?

Thanks JoeGBradford. The e-licenser key (used by Steinberg etc) apparently works OK with this. I'll give it a try and post back with my results.

Interesting to know, thanks Peter. I will demo the iRig Keys I/O 49 at my local Music Shop in York. BTW, check your PMs ?

Hey abacab, the Windows version was there when I downloaded it about 30 minutes ago. Maybe try refreshing browser? Logout/Login? Different browser?

Same for me on Chrome. Nice freebie! Thanks to the King, eInstruments and Presonus ??

Thanks Mesh, will be interested to hear your views. I have an old Yamaha Clavinova CLP-910 piano which I was gifted. It has 88 weighted keys and it's pretty nice for me to learn on. I really feel the difference though when I use my iRig Keys Pro 37 for entering music in CbB or any other DAW. Apart from the lack of weighted keys the main restriction is the number of octaves, not just for playing songs but for VSTis where keyswitches are used for articulation switching. I was thinking that 61 keys would be better, effectively another octave above and below what I currently have. Thanks Simon, that's a pretty in-depth review. Interested to see your views on 49 keys being the "magic" number in terms of usability vs size. The latter is also a consideration for any replacement for my iRig Keys Pro 37 and that limits my choice of 61 controller keyboards.

Thanks Abstract and APD. I purchased this in a sale a few years back and it's a useful tool with lots of presets. Eventide also put out regular updates to their plugins. No-brainer for free! (currently 99 USD on Eventide's website https://www.eventideaudio.com/products/effects/diatonic-pitch-shift/quadravox )

Thanks TS and InSession Audio. Nice freebie for owners and good to see that they deliver on their promises.

Ha! Never even noticed ? it's all a blur.

Actually, that's one of the controllers I was looking at. Do you like it?

Hey Grem, I used it as an excuse to get another 1Tb SSD (nvme M2 this time) ? I think it's 200Gbytes of new content. The highlights for me are the pianos, guitars, brass and the voice stuff but it's all good really and you can still use all the ST3 libraries. That American Acoustic guitar is still a favourite. The bonus is that I now have room for more GAS with BF/Xmas around the corner.
