I went to my user account and clicked upgrades. It gives different upgrade scenarios. All of these would be new to me. I put an upgrade in the cart and applied CREATE40 for a 40% discount and that was the outcome. It would give me a year of wup on most of my existing plugs and add those. Still not gonna do it though. ? Bluzdog

Bruno back off! We like Peter, he's helpful and he's been here and at the old forum a long time. He clearly got pushed too far in that thread. Rocky

So I can WUP for $180 or upgrade using and get these12 additional plugins for $145. This makes sense.

That is marketing genius right there! I'm in the same boat, I have most of the stuff but I don't have any version of Total Studio Max. I don't need Total Studio Max but I would probably buy it if the price was equitable. Rocky

I like this one as well! Rocky

Truth be told we don't really need any of this stuff, we want it. G.A.S. makes us do it. Urgency is one of the best marketing tools ever but nobody is forcing anyone to buy anything. If you were looking to pick this one up it was a great deal. Rocky

I like this one! Rocky

Too much loss people, my condolences. Stay strong, never forget and in the future the emptiness will be filled with fond memories. Rocky

$70 if you have 30 jam points. I still can't get myself to do it. Rocky

All the best for a speedy recover Bill. Rocky

I picked up the bx_console SSL 4000 G. It just seemed too hard to pass up. I wasn't going to let software gas get in the way of saving up for my new guitar amp but here we are. ? Rocky

I like the SLO-100 model, I bought it individually in 2012. BTW...... If you have Jam Points Satch can be had for $40. Rocky

The mission was a success! I probably still need to get him a better monitor but he's in business for now. Thanks again for all of the input! Rocky

The bundles are a really good deal. Rocky

Thank you for all of the food for thought. You guys rock! I ordered his box and he should have it next weekend. ? Rocky

I have a monitor but it's not 4k . I may revisit that down the road, for now he should be set. Rocky

Yes and it takes forever. I recently replaced the power supply in his Xbox. It actually went pretty smooth. Rocky

I pushed my price point some and I'm considering this: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/asus-rog-gaming-desktop-intel-core-i7-9700k-16gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-super-2tb-hdd-512gb-ssd-black/6401068.p?skuId=6401068 It checks most of the boxes and should be future proof for some time. What do you guys think? Rocky

f.w.i.w.... I'm not looking for a high end gaming machine but he definitely needs something usable. He has an Xbox1 and lots of games. Right now he's talking about running minecraft on the PC. When I get back home I'll pick his brain a little more. Thanks for all of the useful info. You guys Rock! Rocky

I feel truly blessed to have the resources to do things like this for him. Rocky

I was thinking about that as well. Thanks. Rocky

I check these out. I love my Lenovo laptop. Do you know what model you bought? Thanks. I'm not that guy, I wish I was. Thanks. Thanks for the replies guys! Rocky

My 13 year old has been hitting me up for a while now. He doesn't know specs so he keeps sending me links to cheap boxes because he's chomping at the bit. Do any of you guys have suggestions for towers in th sub 1k range. Also how about Intel vs AMD? Any help would be appreciated. Rocky

F.w.i.w....I like Zo's idea best so far. Rocky
