Default Sweetwater

$349 “Closeout” special on the Eleven Rack... not clear if this is closing out the Eleven Rack or just this bundle/promotion. (if the later and I was Avid marketing I would be pissed off at Sweetwater).

https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/ElevenRackSP

Other sellers have been offering similar pricing for the Eleven Rack by itself (which of course is all a bundle with Pro Tools First is).

I bought an E Rack brand new off eBay a few months ago and Pro Tools First is free to everyone - nothing special here other than giving SW your phone number and they keep phoning and pestering you

11R is big bang for the buck. I was tempted by an overdrive pedal with a tube inside that was almost $300, so the 11R seemed like an economical alternative.

Back when the 11R was introduced, I looked into Sweetwater's spin. At that time, they were loading their "custom" presets as a bonus. Nowadays, there are many free presets available.

I still like a guitar straight into a tube amp, although I have guitars with active pickups and mid-boost circuitry inside, so I can EQ and fuzz them up without any pedals.

Also have a Digitech 2112 with "Dual S-Disc II processing" with the 2120 ROM update.

But still kind of stuck on old school electronics. Of course, the 11R doubles as an interface...

I asked and was told that it was the latter. Closing out the bundle(which really isn't a bundle, just the ability to get 11R W/O any PT basically).

Thanks Bob, I was almost ready to call them out of curiosity.

The problem is that Sweetwater doesn't sell hardware to us here in Sweden, I have tried buying both two MTi2 and VMS aswell as a Moog Mother and a Minitaur but no go all 4 times. The only time we have been able to buy anything from them was Waves Gold for $699 and that was 2010

I don't think he offered to buy one and send it here, i believe he meant they could send one for less than what it would cost here.
