Looks as though the Facebook CODE is no longer active?  At least it doesn't work at AudioDeluxe.  So, $297.99 is the price for me unless anyone else knows of another discount - please share if so.  I've got a trigger finger.

I came to the same conclusion.  My demo period expires tomorrow.

It expired some time ago if I'm not mistaken - didn't work for me back in late July.

So whatcha gonna do?

This decision is really messing with my head ... on the one hand, it is such a great deal, and I'm sure the plugs are top notch.  On the other hand, it will be a huge distraction right now to face the learning curve involved in order to get where I am comfortable with the plugs, at least the ones I will use most frequently.  I need to get out my "magic 8 ball" and rub it a few times ... I've already rubbed most of the hair off my head trying to make a decision!  This is a tough one for some reason - maybe it's partially because I am hesitant to get into an overwhelming number of plugs when there is already an "overwhelmed" factor at work with Sonar and the recording process in general.  I feel like I'm right on the edge of finally having some measure of control with everything, and I find myself questioning whether I want to dive back into uncharted territory.  Couple that with X2 coming up, and it just seems like there's never a spot where I feel 100% comfortable with all the "stuff" I have at my disposal.  I don't deal with "overwhelmed" very well, anyway, so it's not a spot I like to be in any more than absolutely necessary.  I don't know, in this case it might be okay, because a person could just take one plug at a time and integrate it into the flow until it was comfortable, but you know how it is when you get new plugs - you want to try them all out immediately.  So, it will take some measure of control if I do take the plunge.
 
Anybody else struggling with similar thoughts?

Here's the thing...

With ANYTHING NEW there is a learning curve....

If we "stay" in our comfort zone, we really don't learn anything....because, if there's nothing new, things remain the same..

Here's the question



What do YOU want...and are YOU willing to do what it takes to get there...


THAT is my life philosophy...such as it is...

As others have said...you can do just about anything with what comes with Sonar....just probably not quite so well, but nonetheless in can be done...there are ample tools already there..

I, personally, love Waves plugins...they seem to be a "step" above the others...probably because they've been doing this for a long time...

But that's just me....

If you feel it's worth it to YOU....take the plunge...


If not...there will always be other sales...whether as good...or better....who knows?

I'm going to decide whether I pay for it with Paypal or my credit card.

You sound very reasonable.  I don't know where you consider yourself as far as skill level so you may very well not need these plugins at this stage.  In my book, if you are hesitant then don't.  There will always be another sale down the road.  Or just buy your plugins ala carte.

Now THERE'S a voice of reason!  Stop all the psychoanalysis already and narrow the decision down  ;-}  I like it!  You are my hero!
