shouldn't I have enough plugins in Sonar X1 Producer to record and master good music?


Exactly why I'm passing on this deal.

I was thinking maybe there is something in Waves that could be very useful.  But I am only starting out working hard up the learning curve (which I am enjoying). so most probably I should wait until I have more experience to appreciate?

I agree with one exception - I have all the PC plugs except concrete limiter. I opt to use a limiter from another vendor (TB Barricade).  


I do 'really' like it that cake offers these deals and appears to be proactive in partnering with other notable vendors to get us discounts. That's good stuff happening for all of us!

I own lots of plugins, but none from Waves, so this peaked my interest.  But I do have some questions that a former/current Silver Bundle owner might be able to help with - I couldn't find answers in their Answer Base for anything that had "Silver" in it's name.


I don't understand the Waves Update Plan, but the Silver Bundle doesn't appear to be covered by it.  Is this true?

IR-L does not provide access to Acoustics.net - correct?


Is it true you can only install the bundle on a single machine at a time?


If all the plugins are 64-bit, they sound great (quality wise), they impart an interesting character, and they're stable - then this looks like a great deal.  If the suite is being deeply discounted for us because there won't be a version 10 or you can't update/upgrade the bundle - that's an issue at any price.

Dan,


Silver is covered by the Waves Update Plan...all Waves products are covered by WUP for one year from the date of purchase.
What this means is that if a new version of the Plugins or Bundle comes out within that year you get it for free...after that One year you must renew your WUP to be covered for upgrades in the event of new plugins, but you can use the current plugins as long as you like...you just won't get the new ones for free.

Also, the price you pay for One Year of coverage is turned into a Voucher for the exact dollar amount you spend that can be used to buy more plugins...up to 50 percent off Bundles and 25 percent off Single Plugins.

I own IR-L and have full access to Acoustics.net...

I purchased the Native Power Pack first, then upgraded to Silver, then to Gold, now I'm at Platinum and my WUP goes until January of 2015.

I have a LOT of Waves Plugins (not near as many as Bapu) but it's well worth the money and they DO NOT require Ilok in Version 9, which is the 64 bit versions...

It's a great deal IMHO...

to ME, they are the best...

Cheeres!

Aren't some of these older plugs? I thought I heard that the Q10, for example was ten years old. Paul
