    Hopefully the plugin/sample-library industry learned from Waves’ backlash when they tried to abruptly drop perpetual licenses and force everyone onto subscriptions. Let’s hope Splice and Spitfire keep that lesson in mind. I don’t think they’re dumb or unaware of what people are saying, but money does we…

    Yes, that happens. If you like IK products, the best deal BY FAR is to wait for their Studio Max sales. Don’t be tempted to buy individual products on special sales. Be strong. Wait for their Studio Max sales.

    Hmm… sort of a ho-hum update if you already have T-Racks 6 and Total Studio 4.

    I went to IK’s website to check on jam points and I had a $100 coupon waiting for me! Not…Read More

    fretman replied to the topic Waves Platinum Bundle Only $99 List Price $1,999.00 in the forum Virtual & Physical Music Gear Deals

    • 1 year, 6 months ago

    Regardless of your thoughts about WUP, no one has gotten fired by using Waves.  They  make great  plugins. And this is a killer deal! It’s only a small leap from this to their Mercury collection.
