PT8 upgrade options

[ianmiller]

PT8 looks very nice - but this is a request to Digi to do something similar to what they did a while back with one of the PT7 releases which was to do offer an "upgrade plus" price whereby you also got to pick up a few TDM plugs at a really good overall price. Given a lot of this release seems to be in response to Logic 8's range of plugs and VI's, an "upgrade plus" offering that rounds out a more complete production studio would be really excellent. This email is of course completely self serving! Just hoping Digi marketing pick up on it.......

Hi Digi,

Just curious...I'm about to pick up my new HD2 Accel system, but I realized that many of the plugs that come with HD2 at the moment, are going to be FREE with PT8.

Now...since I'm told that I can get a free upgrade to PT8 later, I'm REALLY wondering if there's gonna be a new plug-in package for HD2. And if so, will I be given the new package as well? Should I actually wait for the new package to come out so that I could get more plugs that come with HD2?

Yeah I know I'm being anal... But the value of bundled plugs IS one incentive for me to pass LE and dive right into HD.

Many thanks~!!

Which ones are you referring to specifically? I don't know of any of the HD Pack bundle plug-ins that are coming free with PT8, other than a version of SansAmp.

I'm just wondering what you're reading and from where...
