To renew the update plan I need to pay 260$
Is there any big advantage upgrading to v12 over v9?
Anyone knows if there is a difference in cpu usage in the versions?

Get yourself over to

You'll save a bit. If you wait Waves have the WUP discounted once or twice a year so you can save some more. I think it will be another 20 or maybe 25%? You might see the discount in the Black Friday sale?
I WUPed back in June and it cost me $160 from AudioDeluxe. I had licenses at V9, 10 and 11 so I was glad to get them all to the same version. Most of them are now at V12.
You'll get extra products in your bundles with the version change. Also, bug fixes and new features.
The plugin resizing is welcome in V12 but the increased sizes lack sharpness in the graphics department. If you are on a small laptop like myself for much of the time, the reduced plugin sizes are good, although difficult to read in some cases.
The preset browser is great and really useful, especially with those plugins which come with scores of presets.
There's no difference in CPU usage. If you have a Mac you'll need a system which supports Metal in the graphics department.
