Remember its UAD exclusive now but will probably get released native in the not so distant future.

True, but I only said that as Wiz currently runs the motu and I don't think has a satellite or a ua card, but maybe he does ? So, it would just be the cost of the plug ?
I wonder too about those rumours that ua will get ported to softube's console 1/2 next year ?

I finally got it downloaded, firstly thanks to Randge and jeromemason for doing this. I really liked the Hardware. To me, its more open... just like the dry drums. The software sounds "pillowy, softer in the tonality". It made me go look at the hardware price here in Oz... I only just recovered after passing out..... 8) also, really nice tracking job on the drums... they sound clear and fabulous. cheers Wiz

They sound mellow compared to the hardware. Hardware is where it's at!!! I cannot look upon that price again on the Chandler Zener, it is a serious condition.

Would have been nice if the files were blind and not labeled 😁 I feel the labeled files can sway some listeners to prefer one over the other... Im not saying that is what has happened so far.. kcatthedog I don't have hardly any storage left on my phone for apps, each iPhone iOS update eats my last storage. I mean, even with hardly any music,vids, texts threads, or pics and every update says the storage is full and need to manage 😂

Fingers crossed Softube ends up releasing a native version like they have with most of their other plugs. Have yet to invest in a Satellite, though UAD seems to be consistently giving me new reasons to take a break from hardware purchases. Interested in hearing the Curve Bender as well.

So - did they take the ability to buy the Sphere plug away? I see it's not available to buy anymore... kcatthedog

Yes apparently during the back friday sale ?
If you check in your UA authorizations, you may already have the sphere plug in authorized , so they may have pulled the buy function just to prevent people from re setting their demos ? I have been quietly told of a way to still buy the sphere but I can't get it to work.

How are the sales looking at UAD ? Did they drop any $50 or $100 coupons off to you guys? Think I got a $50 bit it's probably already expired, they love me for that!

I had a $50 voucher that I spent and promptly got another $25 voucher. Unfortunately, the Chandler Zener is not included in the Black Friday sale, bummer...

I guess the new UAD API 2500 is not on sale either? I wish I could email UAD and tell them I'm about to purchase a plug so go ahead and drop that $25 after purchase voucher off ahead of time 😂

Nope but so far they haven't posted their cyber Monday prices yet. my $50 coupon lapsed on the 15th. You should go to the site thought as there are some interesting deals.

I am afraid I will spend $ I do not have 😂 I promised myself to wait it out for the API to be on sale because a $399 bundle is not feasible for me. This may sound dumb but I will ask anyway. UAD has the bundle offers like 3 for $399, do they still have this offer with the Black Friday/ Holiday sales where both are applicable during checkout? IDK how it would work and the more I think about it, it doesn't make sense 😂 Plugs are probably at a greater discount than the $133 a piece. See kcat you got my gas fueled and engine revving 😁

Here is sort of the ultimate guide to ua plugs deals put together by one of the ua forum guys docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mNc71xMoMGuFJ-G2pXSJ1FN8PMyOiH-iQ5lqiBY3mGoThe custom bundles from the UA store are not visible currently, probably cus of the sale. The registering a new hardware device bundle deal is still on, but you only see those screens ,if you are registering a device, that is the deal that gets you the $133 price. If someone was thinking about buying a new apollo ,until December you get a free quad satellite worth roughly a grand and then when you register, you would get the custom bundle registration offer; for sure if you bought a new apollo would be the a way to get new v9 plugs like 2500 for $133. You might get a registration deal with a new satellite or a card but I am not certain about that.

I really want to do this Apollo plus quad promotion and fully make the live to 64bit. I am super worried UAD is going to upgrade the dsp chips in the next 6 months and announce UAD3 or whatever they call it. Was uad2 backwards compatible to run uad1?
The other part of me thinks that if the sharc DSP upgrade was imminent, UA would have announced it around the time the did UAD V9, right in time for the holidays.. This was the same promotion they ran last year as well. How does a BF TB Apollo connect to USBC / TB3 which is slowly becoming standard ?
I think this is when UAD 3 will be announced. New sharcs, USB -C/ TB3 and then they can make a " universal Apollo " connection wise for windows and Mac. Then development for all platforms is coherent and won't lag and suffer like it did with the whole FW ordeal or how windows users were left on hold in regards to their system setups . Then to appease everybody who can't purchase the new "Universal Apollo", ( i should get a little credit for this moniker 😂 ) UAD releases a Free USB c card for them!
Thoughts anyone?
