November/Black Friday Sales 2016 and 2017!

[Stephen Bond]

Hi,
So it seems this time of year has come round quicker than ever. There's plenty of good offerings out there even though Black Friday hasn't arrived yet.

I passed on upgrading to the Eventide Anthology X Bundle last year and there seems to be a cheaper way in by buying the cheap plugins from the collection and upgrading thereafter with the subsequent discounts. That said, I'm not sure how much I would use the plugins from the bundle, especially considering I never use the channel strip or reverbs I have from them? I'd probably be most interested in the Harmonizers but even then these are pretty much covered by the stuff I have as the AlterBoy from SoundToys and such. Anyhow it is back already for those interested.

So Arturia is tempting me again with it's discounted upgrade once again.

I'm hoping Native-Instruments are going to provide the 50% discounts on upgrades that we saw 2 years ago as last year was a washout and my bundle stuck on V9 accordingly.

Anyhow, there'll be plenty from Waves, SoundToys and the like for those in the market.

So post your bargain links and discoveries please!

Yeah - I started getting Black Friday sales email blasts last week already. As to Eventide I'm tempted by Omnipressor and Blackhole reverb. Everything else I'd want from them I already have (H3000, Ultraverb and Ultrachannel). One of those latter I got as a freebie a while back. The H3000 takes a bit of work but haven't found much it can't do within the realm it's designed for.

Also got an email from Exponential Audio teasing what they're calling a 'very special deal' that they can't talk about until the sale begins on the 25th. That's right - their sale doesn't begin until the actual Black Friday. Wonder if they're going the subscription route as well?

One developer I really would like to see do a BF sale is HOFA as I don't ever recall seeing their prices cut down from the listed price on their site. As a matter of fact I've never seen their plugins sold anywheres else but their site.

Blackhole is unique, grab that while it's dirt cheap

This deal is pretty bonkers considering what most of us paid for it over the years!

Agreed. At this price if you don't already have AIEP2 you should get this, or if you do have AIEP2 and can use these, it's a great deal for sure.

I had horrible problems with the AIEP2, but at this price I'm even considering upgrading Although I may just bite the bullet and go with Komplete 11 Ultimate upgrade.

There's some good Sonivox deals as well (InMusic owns both these brands)

If I could be sure that all the plugins would actually work in PT 12.6, I'd pull the trigger on this. Been meaning to try Velvet anyhow.

I'd be happy of they go 50% on the upgrade price like in 2014. If not I'll probably stick at V9U again.

Forgive the newbie question, but I'm a post guy with absolutely ZERO musical ability and I'd love to just play around. If I have no VIs at all, can I buy both of these? Or does the upgrade require something I don't already own? (besides Xpand2, of course)

[Stephen Bond]

Chris, you basically buy one product from the bundle for $1 and upgrade to the full thing for $75. Plus it is the latest version with extra instruments and presets and VST, AU etc.

I'd hate to look back how much I paid over the years in upgrades and such to the bundle I own, AIEP2?

Anyhow, got this from Waves so if you are in the market there

Starting tomorrow, Nov 24, share our Black Friday Sale with your friends – and get 12.5% of their next order in credit towards any software purchase at Waves.
