Some plugin deals

So, I opened up an AIR delay the other day and was reminded of, not only how many AIR plugins I got with an AIEP3 crossgrade, but also how many presets they came loaded with. I've also been digging into Structure and reminding myself how easily it slices and re-arranges REX2 loops. My AIR stuff is some of the best value purchases I've made.
Well, From AIR Music Tech this time around, instead of Hybrid3 or Xpand!2, it's Vacuum Pro (350 presets) for $1 and an expansion (200 more presets) for another $1.
Vacuum Pro , Vacuum Pro plugin, buy Vacuum Pro , download Vacuum Pro trial, AIR Music Technology Vacuum Pro
Fresh Air Pack Vol 1: Vacuum Pro, Fresh Air Pack Vol 1: Vacuum Pro plugin, buy Fresh Air Pack Vol 1: Vacuum Pro, download Fresh Air Pack Vol 1: Vacuum Pro trial, AIR Music Technology Fresh Air Pack Vol 1: Vacuum Pro
Vacuum Pro would qualify you for the AIEP3 upgrade (perennially $75), maybe one of the best plugin/instrument deals on the planet. The Vacuum Pro expansion mentioned above is also included in the AIEP3 upgrade:
AIR Instrument Expansion Pack 3 COMPLETE UPGRADE , AIR Instrument Expansion Pack 3 COMPLETE UPGRADE plugin, buy AIR Instrument Expansion Pack 3 COMPLETE UPGRADE , download AIR Instrument Expansion Pack 3 COMPLETE UPGRADE trial, AIR Music Technology AIR Instrument Expansion Pack 3 COMPLETE UPGRADE
While I'm on the AIR stuff, there is a Hybrid expansion available for $1 . . .
Sound of the Underground – Hybrid 3 (Exclusive) , Sound of the Underground – Hybrid 3 (Exclusive) plugin, buy Sound of the Underground – Hybrid 3 (Exclusive) , download Sound of the Underground – Hybrid 3 (Exclusive) trial, AIR Music Technology Sound of the Underground – Hybrid 3 (Exclusive)
. . . and three free Hybrid expansions:
Fresh Energy for Hybrid 3, Free Expansion Packs plugin, Download Fresh Energy for Hybrid 3 plugin, Free AIR Music Technology vst plugins

https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/1-Instruments/70-Expansion-Packs/3398-ToneColour-for-Hybrid-3
Also, a free expansion for DB-33 . . .

. . . and Loom (Classic or II):

Not that there's any shortage of good-sounding, nicely featured compressors and plugins for cheap or free, but you might want to consider getting on SudioToolz mailing list. They often offer one of their plugins and Ableton Live Packs for a £ or two via email:
https://www.studio-toolz.com/

If you're looking for a pad-type VST instrument plugin with performance features and a nice variety of loops, drumkits and sounds, there's one on sale ($22.50) for a little while more at MVP Loops:
http://www.mvploops.com/products/fingerprint-vst/

I don't need anymore processing plugins---but I do have more than a few Nomad Factory plugins, and these look interesting and the sale price for the entire bundle ($29) looks like a good deal:
http://store.dontcrack.com/product_info.php?products_id=2341
Maybe a user could comment on these.

Oh---I should definitely mention the Garritan sale that is expiring at midnight on 7/7. Nice audio demos at Time+Space but some slightly better prices may be at PluginBoutique:
https://www.pluginboutique.com/manufacturers/117-Garritan

If you have UVI Sting Machines, you should receive a loyalty upgrade offer ($39), half of the intro price.

Best Service is having a 2-for-1 sale from listed items until 7/13. I read a review on their site for Titan2 (which I really like) in which the reviewer ("Anonymous") stated that it didn't have any presets he/she liked. It comes with 12800 presets. I'm thinking my ex has taken up keys.

Forgot to say thanks. Picked up a couple things from Waves a couple weeks ago. Vocal Rider (which I'll get to try out soon, as I'm tracking vocals today) and Schepps Channel Strip.
 
If you get the AIEP3 Select+ and AKAI VIP 3.1 at AudioPlugin.Deals for $90, what you won't get that's in AIEP3 complete is:
• AIR Creative FX Collection PLUS – 28 Classic Audio FX ($40 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• XPAND!2 – MULTITIMBRAL ALL–IN–ONE WORKSTATION ($1 or free)
• D. Ramirez Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• Marco Lys Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• Mark Knight Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• Rene Amesz Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• Tocadisco Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• Analog Trap Expansion – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
$48 total difference if you get the missing pieces on best-price sales ($138 total outlay); you have to wait for the deal on Xpand!2. If you take the plugins out of the mix, there's only an $8 difference ($98 total outlay).


If you get AIEP3 Complete crossgrade at Plugin Boutique for $75 (+$1 for a Hybrid3 or Vacuum Pro pre-purchase to qualify for the crossgrade if you don't already own an AIR Tech plugin/instrument), what you won't get that's in the AudioPlugin.Deals offer is:
• Boom - Classic Analoge Drum Machine ($20 crossgrade available at Plugin Boutique)
• Vacuum Classic – Classic Mono Analog Tube Synthesizer ($10 crossgrade available at Plugin Boutique)
• Flux Transitions Expansion vol. 2 – Presets for theRiser ($4)
• Dark Parallax – Presets for Hybrid 3 ($1 on sale at Plugin Boutique)
• AKAI VIP 3.1 ($50)
$85 total difference if you get the missing pieces on best-price sales ($160-$161 total outlay); you have to wait for the deals on VIP and Flux Transitions 2. If you take VIP out of the mix, there's only a $35 difference ($110-$111 difference).

Neither deal includes Loom II, and there are other expansions available for Hybrid, Loom, and The Riser, including freebies. Either way, even with the basic deals, you end up with a lot of great stuff and thousands and thousands of sounds. I've said this before about the AIR instruments: Under-rated and under-appreciated except by those who use them.

If you take advantage of the $2 sale on SONiVOX Twist2, you might also want to take advantage of an offer from Output for Arcade that allows you to view a week's-worth of Groove3 tutorials. I believe that you have to register for Output's mailing list to get it. I've always found the Groove3 tutorials to be very helpful for AIR Music Tech and SONiVOX synths/plugs (among others), and I think that if you have taken advantage of the recent sale prices on Hybrid3, Vacuum Pro, and Twist2, you will find their Groove3 tutorials very helpful---and, of course, there are scads of other topics covered.

Also, if you decide to use your purchase of Twist2 to allow you to take advantage of the SONiVOX Premier Collection upgrade, you will get an additional 18 VST instrument for the lowest price that I can recall ($50) but note that they may be sold as a bundle but each one must be downloaded and authorized individually (18 with a proprietary or iLok method [free software manager is ok] and one with a proprietary-only authorization). Having done the drill, I would suggest using the iLok option whenever offered and move carefully through the authorization screens. It's tedious but worth it. Some of the included instruments are in themselves worth the entire price of the bundle.

Also: I just received an email stating that the IK T-Racks group buy, now 6 plugins for the price of (the most expensive) one, has been extended through 9/4. If you're a fan, I guess now would be a good time to pick up a load of them.

Hey everyone, can I recommend the Denise plug-in range. Google: "denise audio"

We're a new developer and are releasing a range of simple-to-use and very powerful effects including a Transient Shaper, Brickwall Limiter, Saturator and more. The plug-ins are sold at a consistently affordable price of 19 euros and we offer a 7 day trial with all of our plug-ins.

Happy Producing.

I just picked up Audiomodern's new Riffer for $19.99 at The Shop at AudioPlugin.Deals by using $20 in accumulated awards. Oddly enough, after the transaction was completed my accumulated awards total went UP by $0.98 and I received an email that stated that the purchase just earned me $19.98 in rewards.

If anybody needs three great synths (IMHO) and 2394 presets for $7, check out Hybrid3, Loom Classic, Vacuum Pro, and their free expansions at Plugin Boutique. Each one of these three has its own way to easily come up with new sounds. Throw in Xpand!2 with another 2500 presets for another $5. There are also a number of expansions for $1, some of which have not been reduced this much before.

If you already have Arturia's V Collection 5, check your email. I just received an email with the loyalty upgrade price for V6 I was waiting for, the one that usually happens around New Year's---$99. That's $150 off the Black Friday price. Sweet.

I am posting this because this deal just appeared in my inbox and will expire shortly (12/31). Plugin Boutique is offering a free AAS Session Series Bundle (LoungeLizardEP-Strum-UltraAnalog Sessions) with any purchase (or just signing up for an account, if that window pops up for you). There are quite a number of nice items from AIR, SONiVOX, AudioThing, Glitchmachines, etc., on sale from $1-$5 if you just want to make a qualifying purchase.

Another recent inbox entry: I haven't tried this yet but since one of the VIs above is a modeled EP, you might also be interested in this freebie (read the webpage info). Enter $0 to download for free.
