What did you pick up on Black Friday?

[Ahornberg]

finally, after having done extended tests i bought into bitwig studio.

I'm happy with Dark Planet, got it still on sale. Now considering Padshop...

I was considering Padshop pro too but it seems not to be in sale anymore.
I made a test with the demo version and it's not recognized in Live 9 as VST, even if Steinberg says "compatible VST 2 host".

Well, heck. I show the prices as 79.95 US bucks, which is OK, but now I'm going to have to install the demo and see if Tracktion barfs on it.. feh..

I'm in Europe, it's 80€ (98 US bucks). It's still tempting.... but with all the sales, the end of the year is a budget nightmare.

I feel your pain. Plugin sales, 3D software sales.. it's all too much! Time to rob a bank...

I'm in. I'm tempted by the Soundmorph software bundle.
I'm following advent calendar at Soundiron and Plugin Alliance.
And after the sales, i have Fabfilter Saturn waiting for me.
Time for negociations with my accountant, AKA my wife.

Not Black Friday, but I did order a Livid Ds1 from Musician's Friend for $380 instead of $450. Now I have a configurable digital mixer I can use with any DAW. I love hardware, but if I'm honest with myself, I work better in software, so this will be a good thing for me.

**edit** which isn't really software >.> But I did decide to go ahead and upgrade to Iris 2 because I dug into Iris more, and looked at the new features. AudioDeluxe gave me a deal

Late to the party as usual .

I picked up NI's Razor , and Air Music's Loom plugins . Some interesting possibilities between them.

The IK group buy has been extended by 10 days. I think I shall have to make another decision next week

Looks like this will make the "Buy one, get four free" target. Even at the current 3 Free plugins level, this was a great deal. 7 days to go.

Well I went for the Melda total bundle since it was 50% off. Now I have plugins for the next hundred years :biggrin:

Ah, I forgot about the group buy...kind of doesn't count in a way since I only used gear credits I had been saving since the credit group buy more than a year ago, and used jampoints (at50% then).

I double-dipped and bought in 2x...the only thing I don't have Tracks wise now is the PA and the Tape Echo...unless it hits the next level.

You really can get IK stuff for next to nothing if you can wait.

[seismic1]

I splurged on the IK deal. I bought the 432, and got the 81, the PG and the Tape Echo.

@aoVI - I love that Tape Echo. It has a completely different sound to the Satin Delay options. It gives REFLEX Free a good run for its money

A brutal hangover, and feelings of lassitude.
