Could someone from Cake tell us if the TH2 upgrade price is about to go up from $99?
I got an email from Cake saying that the X2 specials were ending at the end of October and they included TH2. I thought the upgrade price was going to stay at $99. I really need to know whether it's going to go up. I was holding off on getting it because I'm trying to save money and figured it might actually go DOWN in price at some point. If it is going to go up in price could you tell us by how much? Thanks in advance.

Hiya Beep. You would think that if it was a deal with some kind of time limit on it then it should mention it on the page where you purchase the upgrade. But it doesn't. A bit naughty that...

It is no secret. The issue has been discussed in the forum before. I read about it somewhere a few weeks ago and have recently received email about it. Bottom line, the current offer expires for both Overloud upgrades at the end of the month.

Yeah, it's a little confusing but it is probably more an Overloud thing than a Cakewalk thing. I seem to recall a brief post from one of the Bakers saying that the $99 price was here to stay but that might be my memory playing tricks on me and even if that did happen I believe the pricing is up to Overloud. Just need some confirmation on this so I know how to proceed. My cash has been earmarked for other stuff so I'd have to do some financial kanoodling as usual. Cheers.

I don't believe it was your mind playing tricks on you. I recall the same post, regarding a Baker saying the $99, was here to stay, at least for the amp sim., not sure about the other! So, I am glad you are keeping the post alive, sure there are more than just the 2 of us interested! Hopefully we will get confirmation.

Yeah, I feel bad about rabble rousing but it's a pretty sticky predicament for me. I can't miss out on the sale (if it is indeed a sale) but I can't be tossing cash around right now unnecessarily. Got 2 and half days to get an answer. Cheers.

Oh and I seem to recall that Breverb WILL be going up in price but again I'm not positive. That's not nearly as important to me though.

According to Cake.com Blog, Twitter, FB and the email, the special prices end Oct 31.
Cake store description doesn't specify, but I assume the other 4 sources would be accurate.
You could always call them tomorrow...

I guess I'll pass, just wish they wouldn't have said it was "the"price, from here on out,and that was a while ago,when I probably could have squeezed it, but bought tutorial videos instead.Guess we all make mistakes, just sucks, would have liked to have it!

I am guessing Fog is correct. The offer will probably make a slight return some time in the future. Might want to start saving for it now.

Hi-
Just to confirm, we've been saying that the TH2 and BREVERB upgrades end October 31st for a few weeks now. It will no longer be available after October 31st so if you want to get the upgrade, please do so by Wednesday.

Yeah, I must have missed that. The confusion was because when X2 was released one of the Cakesters (can't remember who) posted that that was going to be the ongoing price but there was a lot going on back then so maybe it was a mistake or something changed. Cheers and again thank you for addressing this.
