Easter specials speculation

[musicman691]

Time for some speculation on who's going to kick loose with some awesome Easter specials - Waves not included

I'm sure many have seen the Soundtoys sale good until April 5. Audio Deluxe has FabFilter Pro C2 for $139 and $111 +/- when logged in (only good for the next day or so). Plugin Alliance has brought back the previous sales they've had this month after not doing that for a while.

Anybody know of anything else or have thoughts on who would bring something neat to the sale table?

Why no Waves??? I'm looking forward to see what new deals they will have!!! Actually I've been feasting for a while on the current 29 deals

The reason I said 'no Waves' is it seems like these last many months they've had precious little that has been full price. The only one that I recall lately that was cut/intro price was the Scheps Omni Channel then it went to full price for maybe two weeks ($149) and is now back down to $49. To put it another way - what new deals could they possibly have?

That makes sense. Actually I should have said "I'm looking forward to see what new "$29 deals" they will have". I want H-EQ (for the piano roll) and I still don't have R-Bass, and maybe, just maybe, the dbx160.

Like the 160 on Kicks and some bass- its crunchy I just got a deal from avid for the Nugen Stereo something something bundle. I didn't really need em but they were like 29 USD so what the hell right. K I just checked it was the NUGEN Stereopack Elements Bundle

Do you know if the Soundsoap product is more or less a duplicate of the Izotope RX 4 standard suite, or is there a good reason to get these if one already had the RX series?

Soundsoap is nothing like Izotope s/w especially if it's like the old Windows version from years back which I had. It covers a lot of the same ground but in a different way. I used it when I was doing vinyl restoration and at the time it required several small passes to get a decent clean sound. Like most such audio tools it rewards patience and the willingness to make small moves and not try and correct in one fell swoop. The key is getting a good noise print; also if you have multiple problems like random clicks along with hum or other constant noise you won't be able to get a good correction doing it in just one pass.

Perhaps an element of the ' if one tool doesn't work, the other might' in play here?

Got an email this morning from Plugin Alliance that was supposedly sent out yesterday (Friday) mentioning something I wrote earlier about bringing back the previous sales for March. In this email is what they're calling 'your personal Easter voucher' to use in case you already used your other voucher for this month. Which I already did; there's nothing left on offer I want This one is/was for $25.

Be aware that the voucher is only good if used by April 1st 11:59 PM PST.
