Jesse Bruce Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) Unfortunately, we have received the following notice ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry for the long delay on your order. The promotion for TAL Software was agreed upon between the US Distributor and TAL Software. We ran the promotion as provided to us many weeks ago. This was not a pricing mistake by us and in line with the many promotions we are running during our Anniversary sale. We were informed today by the US Distributor that a dispute arose between them and TAL Software and they would not be supplying any more licenses for any outstanding orders and have ended the promotion. A full refund has been issued for your Order xxxxx Edited October 11, 2023 by Jesse Bruce 1 6

Kiloteq Posted October 11, 2023 Author Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) It must have far exceeded TAL's original expectations. It is unfortunate, but I will keep in mind that these things happen and move on. Edited October 11, 2023 by Kiloteq 2

I didn't get this as I need another Jupiter VI about as much as I need another hole in my head. I see the peeps complaining over at GS. get over it. it was a price error on a piece of software. who cares. if you needed it that much.. wait for a another sale to come up. I am still kickin my self for not picking up the Eventide and Boz stuff from last years AD anni sale. I moved on. Money saved as I didn't really need those anyways. 1

It was a pricing mistake unfortunately, so not what they expected at all.. hopefully lots of good exposure for them though from people that may not have been familiar with them otherwise though ? 1

That is also somewhat right, but not the full story from my understanding. TAL never meant the price to be 13% of the original, more so 13% off as a discount. It was indeed a pricing mistake, but on TAL's side, not AD's.

I agree, this is the first time I've looked closely at TAL so I hope the marketing made sense.? 1

Not surprised. What does sting a little bit, is I lost money on the deal because of the exchange rate. Granted, it was only $.63 CAD but still! Just glad it was not a large purchase. 2

Just wondered...are you basing that on the theoretical conversation Audioschmaudio posted earlier in this thread? Directly after you posted something about people eventually getting their codes.

Not sure whether MusicMan saw the below (on Reddit, originally from a user on KVR sharing an email from Patrick at TAL), but it corresponds with what he suggested (see "Edit 2" in the first post):

This is one of the few pricing mistakes I don't feel as great about. Often it's more giant companies with overinflated prices, whereas TAL isn't that and their prices are reasonable. I am really enjoying the synth though. 2
tom Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 Very interested in Sonnox Drum Gate, that looks like a hefty discount, is that a regular discount they do or should I jump on it??

I could get for about $50 in 2021 at everyplugin. I had to wait a long time, 'cos it was rarely on sale and that had been a very special opportunity! I like it, it is a very great, exceptional plugin!

When in doubt, always ask our trusty friend musicsoftwaredeals.com The price history shows that it's not a hefty discount but more like a PA/Waves type of price policy. 1
tom Posted October 13, 2023 Posted October 13, 2023 Oh great tips, thank you. Been checking YouTube demos and does look like a cure for my badly recorded drum sessions!
