Your Black Friday (November) Purchases 2022

-Cineperc
insane price. pure GAS. wasn't even on my wishlist,
because I only wanted core. But they merged core and pro and it got too expensive.

-SynthV
I had my eyes on for quite a while after listening to the amazing demos on the other thread.
Have lots to learn about it. Its really deeper than I thought with so much parameters.
Reminds me of Sample Modeling

-Spectre

I think I was conservative this BF(?)
Damage 2 was very appealing, but I think I made it through :)

I really wanted to add Pacific in this list...
 
I have come to the conclusion that I am a sucker for a discount. Or maybe just a sucker.

ProjectSAM - Colours pack
Hoopus
Liquidsonics CRP, 7HP, Illusion, Rev3, Tai Chi
SAS - The Mellow Trio
Sound Particles - Density and Brightness Panner
Two Zebra soundsets by The Unfinished
That $3 Boom FX library
Lumina
Dorico Elements and Wavelab Elements update
zPlane - Peel
Factoid by J J Burred
SWAM all in
Divisimate

I'm now engaged in some serious file management negotiations with my hard drive.
 
I guess I'm finished for Black Friday. Spent way less than last year.

Started off with Symphobia 3 Lumina Update for free
Ethera Atlantis Update for $30
Sonixinema Intimate Cello $48 GBP
Fabfilter Pro Q3 for $127
Liquidsonics Cinematic Rooms Standard for $129
8Dio Glitch Voices Roula for $9
Tokyo Dawn EQ TDR SlickEQ Mastering $10

Grand total of about $360. That's my best example of self control on BF yet.
We'll see if VSL releases anything new and awesome during voucher month. That could kill me yet.

Okay... now what am I going to create with all these goodies!!??
 
Dorico 4 update, Embertone Joshua Bell and Walker 1955, Osterhouse English Bass. Maybe some NI stuff tomorrow.
 
Last minute purchase, upgraded to Waves Abbey Road bundle. Also noticed on Spitfire site after sale ended. They kept the classics bundle active, put up the latest Aperture product and had discounted Red Cola Trailer Giant super cheap. So picked it up for $56. I'll try it for that price.
 
I caved and bought Scaler 2 on sale for $40. I love playing around in musical roads traveling from place to place. This seems like a fun toy to have. Likely it will give me ideas fast too when just doodling around with it. For those who say "I make my own chord progressions" think about all the awesome things that happened in your songs you did not plan.

And I chose the CA2600 synth as a freebee for buying Scaler2. I didn't choose Audiolens because I plan to get the Sonible True Balance in the future.

I also somehow ended up with CineBrass Complete just to update how that went. I did not expect that but now I'm happy I have my first serious brass library.

Next year I want to focus on strings. I'll be searching for the ones that have the best low end and warm sound but versatile with any library.
 
I bought:
  • Pianoteq 8 update
  • Spitfire:
    • Hammers
    • Abbey Road One: Legendary Low Strings
    • Goldfinger Percussion
    • Aperature freebie
That's gotta be a low record for me for the last few years...:)
 
I haven't bought anything yet, times are tough. But if i eat Ramen for 2 months maybe i'll get Liquidsonics professional bundle (50% off i've been waiting for all year) for Cinematic Rooms and 7th heaven. I don't have a reverb other then stock Reaper reverbs, so I figure that's the best use of the little money I can afford to spend.

Decided against Abbey Road Two and Cinematic Studio Brass, I think a good reverb is priority now that i'll use on literally EVERYTHING. String quartet and dedicated Brass (i only have stuff like Albions and Abbey Road ONE foundations for Brass, so no separate instruments yet) can wait i think.

Any opinions on Seventh Heaven and Cinematic Rooms? I see a lot of positive things about both

If money's an issue, instead of buying Seventh Heaven, consider getting a free true-stereo convolution reverb plugin (i.e. Convology XT) + the free Bricasti M7 impulse response files.

Crossgrade is normally 250$ I think but 50% on BF. Just email them to get a custom invoice.

I see a few people buying Devastator Breakout Pro. Would you mind letting me know, was that on sale when you bought it? I may pick that up next year if a sale happens again. I don't usually buy this type of library and don't know much about them, so I'm uncomfortable spending $399 just now even though it could be worth it. I got the UVI tools this year (Whoosh, Comet, Drone).

It was on sale for Black Friday for $249 or 299 if I remember correctly. I have my eye on it too just it will be next year during another sale.

They usually give away a free version too. Did you look for one? If not, grab the free versions of all the other Keepforest libraries like Ferrum.

Although I also have a very small budget this year, I couldn't resist and bought the Reverberate 3. Absolutely beautiful reverberator, I was impressed with the sound, try it and maybe it will be enough for you. Find an article on the Liquidsonics blog comparing it to the 7H. Also for a few pennies you can buy an Inspirata light from hand (recently I saw a price of 5 dollars) and maybe with these two you will be provided with very high quality rooms, halls, ambiences.
 
Damnit! I keep saying that's the final one and I keep seeing stuff at too good a discount to miss. Added to my now rather extensive list is;

8DIO Lacrimosa (70% off)
Softube Weiss Compressor/Limiter (45% off)

Already used these two on my latest project. Lacrimosa sounds awesome and having a wonderfully clean and transparent compressor such as the Weiss on the mix bus of a 70 track composition really does a fantastic job of keeping it all under control yet retaining full sonic integrity.
