I generally use the audio production deals reddit for deals. And email as well, since I get a fair number of offers from places I have bought from in the past.

 

There's already been a ton of stuff, some good deals some not so good! I've picked up a few mixing plugins but I feel pretty set in that department. NO MORE SYNTHS, I already don't use some of the ones I have....I might dive into a drum library if a good deal presents.

I could use a deal on some restoration tools ie iZotope.

Also on the look out for one really good piano library that I like a lot - ie. Garritan CFX. If it"s part of a collection of stuff ie. Keyscape or a Kontakt compilation or something, I won"t shy away. ;)

I got Garritan CFX "Lite" on sale a few years ago. I like Garritan, they have simple copy protection and were helpful when I asked a question. Even the Lite version is pretty big, I ended up putting it on an external ssd to reduce (vastly reduce) load times.

 

I might be willing to upgrade it to get the different mic perspectives, I've heard they are worth it. That's the main difference I think between Lite and regular.

Sadly Neo-Soul Keys is still WELL out of range. Their "sale" is at $250 USD, probs only about 10% off...makes it over $300 AUD . It's pricing itself out of the market. Time to look for an alternative I think.

There is no luck - luck is simply the confluence of circumstance and co-incidence...

I just went to their webpage (11/16/21) and Black Friday Sale is $125 USD.

Gospel Musicians also has their Yamaha sound libraries on sale. I highly recommend the Kawai EX and Academic Grand samples; I have all 5 of the AcousticSamples pianos in my Motif XF but those two are my favorite general-purpose pianos along with the stock S6 grand.

 

Edit: to be clear, I'm talking about the Gospel Musicians pianos they partnered with AcousticSamples on bringing to the Motif/Montage from AS's libraries, not an offering from AS themselves.

Not over here it isn't - I got the email from them as I am a customer, went to the link and it comes up $250 - unless it is already converted of course, but it hasn't been that way before. Still not a huge reduction in any case...still I will go back and re-check it from the Oz end.

Yep thanks Groove and DocBop - I must have jumped on too soon, being down here we are several hours in front ;)

 

Just checked again after DocBops post and indeed it is now down to 125 ($172 in our $'s) can probably just "squeak" that in...LL4 just does not cut it for me any more. They haven't updated it for quite a while and i am not holding my breath waiting. The iOS version is excellent for Neo Soul....SampleTank 4 has some nice ones in it too, just need to see if i can justify the cost to add to those.

 

Thanks again!

I'm seeing a price of US$125 until the end of Nov 2021 for Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2, but the web page did load and show US$250 for a several seconds before switching to the sale price.

Elmer, do you know how long IK usually run this sale? I'll wait til the end to see if it comes up. I did see the MAX sale, but with ST4 and some other synths from them already it doesn't make a lot of sense, JUST to get B-3x.

It"s hard to say this year - they did this big 25th anniversary group buy the last two months. Maybe they"ve made their targets with that. Splitting up Max into instruments and fx bundles was a pretty savvy move. The introductory pricing is supposed to end November 30. I"m not sure I"d bite either when all I really want is B3X. I feel like they"ve been very careful not to discount their official Hammond product - particularly the desktop version. Patience will win, imho.

Yes indeed; ordered a Behringer CAT a few days ago. That KT Dimension D clone was interesting, but I couldn't really think of an actual use I would have for it since I already have a Line6 M13 fx unit if I wanted to add FX to a synth or guitar.

Just spent an unplanned $900 on winter tires... enjoy yourselves, friends.

Just had a convo on the forum a few weeks ago on unexpected roof replacement - including the decking. Like taxes, home and vehicle repairs are something we can always count on to screw up your plans.

Very nearly pulled the trigger on Neo Soul 2, but by the time I got to the final stage of the payment with all current exchange rates etc, it was going to cost $191 AUD. So I aborted. Just could not justify it. Must be some wealthy people buying GM gear, that's all I can say haha!

 

I'll hunt around for a cheaper alternative. I can use the ones in ST4, but sometimes a project/song needs a specialist standalone.
