Not sure why I posted the end date on one forum and not the other. I'm just going by what it says on their site anyway. *The promo is valid from January 20 to February 3, 2020, 11:59 pm (GMT+1).

Carlos Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 I've wanted to transfer my license for like forever, but they ask 100 euros for the transaction... lol... 2

Yeah be warned, you buy at this price and to transfer to another user would cost €25 + the difference between sale price and regular price of €268! So basically not possible . They really need to update transfer policy! 2

Exactly so they will earn nothing keeping such policy on that already sold license. Lowering costs to anything reasonable would give them additional income on the same license. So they should be happy because counting on persons who are looking better prices would buy new license is not good plan I believe. They just stop spreading plugins between more users... 2
Zo Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 I suggest waiting for kazrog comp , gem comp76 v2 ... 1
Hidden Symmetry Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 If you're looking for that emu get Fuse's VCL-25A (it was on sale, all his plugins are excellent) or if you have N4 get Tim Petherick's ra6 which is stellar.
cclarry Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 I took this for a test drive, and WOW, it sounds GREAT!!! VERY VERY NICE!!! And none of my CPU's ever hit more than 50% (I have 8...) on the performance monitor, even with a boatload of other plugins. It was updated in Dec, so that might have helped with the CPU hit, but it didn't even nearly tax my CPU''s as much as some of the Wave plugins do. On the two bus it really can open up the mix...some slight tweaks and WOW. 3

On the two bus it really can open up the mix...some slight tweaks and WOW. The eq curve is what gives it that nice warm sound. Many wanted it as an option but Greg insisted it stay as it replicated his h/w.. If the eq curve is not desired you can eq it flat just like you can do with any other plugin. Just put a basic bell EQ @ 54Hz, dip - 2dB and you'll have close to flat response. From my notes: There's a high shelf starting around 6kHz up to 13 -14kHz , then dips down slightly towards Nyquist. Also remember their meters are poor, they're trying to improve but the rule of thumb is compression starts before any meter or needle movement. 1
tom Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Yeah caved and bought this too and not disappointed (never am with Acustica really), tons of character! 1
