question about waves update plan..
So my Gold bundle (plus a few extra waves plugins) is coming due in a few weeks for $209.45. I'm a bit confused about the "Upgrading your Waves products - from single plugin/s to a bundle, or from a smaller bundle to a larger bundle - gives you 1 free year of the Waves Update Plan for all plugins in your new bundle" part. When I click on "upgrades", the first one I see is "upgrade to Gold +RenMaxx" for $45. Does this mean that if I buy it, I get another year of the full update plan for everything? This doesn't seem to make sense.
Thanks in advance for any help with this! |

Re: question about waves update plan..
$209 is too high in my opinion. If the $45 thing is available, then that's fair. I think my WUP is due or soon to be, but for now I'll just continue using my v11 & v12 plugs as is - they work fine.

Until you've upgraded your way to Mercury with every year's black Friday sale. Then you've got nothing else to upgrade to.

Usually when you do upgrade it does renew your WUP, at $45 though, it sounds almost too good to be true. I think the only way to know if it is true is to contact Sales. Odd, I'm usually telling people to contact support, I really don't know what to do when they have a "sales" question. This has never happened before. But that $200+ you only need to pay when NEED to upgrade to a more recent Waves "version". Although, Mac users have copped that a few times over the last few recent years as Apple keeps making big underlying changes which costs them a lot of money to trawl through every plugin so they can update it and test it while maintaining backwards compatibility. |
