Re: WUP sucks!!
Fwiw my WUP has been expired about a year now. Just DL'd the newest version but still haven't installed. I was looking around a previously mentioned site and I found I can add L3 for $135, and I believe will bring my WUP up to date. Seems as though they've added some Puigtec EQ's to my bundle also that I don't have yet. So I should get those when my WUP is up to date.
Or I can spend the $200 (well $180 if you look hard lol) and to get my WUP back in affect and just get the new plugs. I think I know which way I'll go. However since everything is still working fine I may not do anything. Yet. So while I would like it to be cheaper, I can't say WUP is the worst thing ever.

Re: WUP sucks!!
I don't think just buying the L3 will bring your whole bundle up to date, just that product.

Re: WUP sucks!!
Maybe but from what I read if I "upgrade" my bundle it will give me a free year of WUP. And on the aforementioned site that's what is says it's doing. Going from Platinum to Platinum+L3 Multimaximizer. Maybe, maybe not. Figure I'm gonna at least try and see.

Re: WUP sucks!!
I think I misunderstood. In that case it will probably work. I was thinking of my situation. My Platinum expired earlier this year. Shortly after that I bought the CLA collection, then a few weeks ago I got the upgrade to the full version of Waves Tune. I think in my case I just have a bundle and a couple of plugins, vs. a new bundle.

Re: WUP sucks!!
Just had to shuck out $230 bucks to update my WUP due to my PT 9 upgrade and I got nothing in return other than the privilege to continue using my WAVES plugs. With PTools 9 I gained many great, new features. All of my other plugs, that I paid for, work flawlessly.
Once again, I admit that I love my WAVES plugs, however the WUP is designed to milk us dry of our cash. I am now aggressively searching to replace WAVES on my six Protools systems. Sorry Waves. If you are going to charge these ridiculous fees you must provide some type of service. I see many dollars lost in your future. Fight the stupidity!!! Chad

Re: WUP sucks!!
One thing everyone should consider.
I actually don't mind paying WUP because I think it holds the value of our Waves Plug-ins. The other option for Waves would be to charge for each version of Waves where the value of our plug-in license falls dramatically if we don't upgrade to the latest and greatest. The current WUP plan keeps all our Waves plug-ins to the latest and greatest, thus holding the value instead of getting replaced with something new every two years.
