Upgraded from Tape for 410 sek (~$37.50). Thanks @jngnz !

Frankly,

• did I need another synth? - No, I have too many!
• did I need another compressor? - No, I'm strewn of compressors!
• did I need another channel strip? - You already know the answer!
• I had owned Tape and Wasted Space before!

But the deal had been soooo tempting! ? Especially because there was no other appealing deal for me!

This Brit Class better make all my dreams come true.  That's all I'm sayin'.

Are you logged in and clicked in the upgrade button?

I've been after British Class A for a LOOOOONG time...and $39 is a great price just for that,
and like getting the FET (I already own the other 2) for FREE!

I am a big fan of this particular plugin console and I have a few. I feel Softube make the best version. It's also cool to use it within AmpRoom.

OK, y'all talked me into it...

[Release]

Yea, I jumped on the for the British Channel too.  Already had Tape and the Model 84, but that’s definitely well worth the price alone.  An outstanding Juno.

Should be thirty nine

[Release]

It’s 39 if you already own something in the bundle

[UITAGREG]

New to the console 1 way of working and don't have any of the bundle, should I get get it, will there be a further reduction?  
Seriously, so happy right now as I was going to buy Class A for the full price!

I think this is what Softube call a “feature”. I love Amproom but it’s the WORST in terms of load time, CPU hit, etc.

As far as I can see it's only the loading and changes in the GUI that are stressing the CPU, for the rest I see it's lighter than most other channel strips (checked in Reaper where you can see the CPU hit for each plugin alone). Generally I have the impression that the GUI loading of Softube plugins has worsened in the last couple of years! I'm quite sure that it's caused by a "modern" GUI library!

You can get Console 1 MKII for $266 at Thomann

Great deal for sure!

[RSMcGuitar]

I just want to add, that I really like the fact that all Softube plugins have that gain-matching side panel that can be opened on the right side. Wish more people did this.

Hope, retailers will come up with a better offer.

This won't be at any retailers...

[cclarry]

I didn't have 3 of them...Brit Class A, FET MKII, and Model 84...so $39 ($13 each) seems reasonable!

I already had the synth and tape so I was on the fence but I found that and Wasted Space and the four modules in the A-Class can be used in Modular and that tipped the balance.
