Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
Me too. And I noticed it gave an extended date to March 30, 2024. So, essentially, anytime in the next 12 months I can opt to WUP and bring all my Waves plugs right up to date. I might do that. I've only WUP'd once before, as I recall. I have some that are V9 and a few between v10-v14.

Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
We’re really back to how we were. We don’t know what their new sales policies are - I doubt even they do, the business plan is in the bin - but there’s absolutely no reason to rush to WUP. Only buy it when you absolutely have to. Hopefully the upgrade sales will roll around eventually where you upgrade your bundle for little money, and the WUP thrown in. It was always by far the best move.

Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
No retailers are showing Waves products so getting a discount is a no go for now. I have little faith they will go back to another party selling their products, that would eat into their profit. This whole debacle is about how much profit they can make so that's probably something they don't backtrack on.

Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
You can now renew your Waves Update Plan for perpetual plugin and bundle licenses that you already own. This ability is available on Waves website once again - see all information:
https://www.waves.com/support/waves-...ble-march-2023 Login to Waves to see your WUP price - and also get a Waves Code to show 3rd Party Plug-in Vendors to buy your My Waves Update Plan at a discount. Once purchased, register your WUP with Waves

The ability to purchase new perpetual licenses for Waves plugins and bundles will be available again on our website very shortly. We are working to make this happen as soon as possible, and will notify all our users by email as soon as it is ready.

EDIT - and of course as I type those sales haven't yet restarted as they reconfigure everything. Essentially on this I see no news as no news.

Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
Just got email from Waves that individual and bundle plugs are now available. Checked the website, individual are $29.99 except about 5 or 6 plugs, bundles seem to be at the old prices, Mercury is $1,999. No retail sales at Audiodeluxe, Sweetwater only has hardware for live use. So far, not looking like 3rd party sellers are a part of the "restructuring" plan.
At least if you WUP, your plugs are worth what they were (or close to) before the worst debacle in recent audio history. Good job Waves |

Re: Waves making perpetual licences and updates available again. Letter from CEO
Anyone use Waves Central yet?
I only have 4 plugins. They are V14 but 3 of them have updates. Looks like you can't update just the plugins you have. If I try to update them, it wants to force install EVERY SINGLE WAVES PLUGIN!!! Why can't I just update my current plugs without having to download all the other bloat-ware!?!?! I hope they fix this in Waves Central, as this was clearly part of their Creative Access mess.
