Mod - I think Audiodeluxe reduced their prices during the day because some of the sales (like Waves) were officially for one day only and they were being undercut elsewhere. They couldn't wait till next week or even next day as it would all be over. I noticed a few things change during the day in various places. The best thing to do in that case is to contact them like you did. They are usually understanding.

On a side note, even if people missed the sales by a day it's still worth checking the relevant stores as many conveniently don't alter their prices for a day or two. Even if they have, you can still ask for the sale price.

Yeah, I think I have to take the bait on the CLA one as I have the NI stuff.

Quick question on Kontakt 5.  I updated some of my instruments and now some don't load because they now require 5 - is this right?  My choices are upgrading to 5 or reverting back the instruments (or is that possible)?
 
EDIT to add: I see they have Komplete 8 Players - a free download which has Kontakt 5 player.  Will these work with K7?
 
Nevermind - they are only a time-limited set of players for demo purposes.

I did the same thing a while back.  the only way to "revert back" is to install them from the disk.  The free player will not work on Kontakt samples because they require the full player to be used.  some 3rd party samples are usable with the player IF they paid Kontakt big bucks to be compatible, otherwise they can develop Kontakt samples which are able to be played only on the full Kontakt.
 
BTW - I ended up upgrading shortly after reinstalling the sample libraries I accidently upgraded. 

I just got 4 of the 20' instrument cables Sweetwater was giving away for $10 each and I decided the $49 Alesis 49 key keyboard was to good to pass up as it has both USB & DIN.

Thank you friend - that's what I was afraid of but will probably do as well.

This should cheer up anyone who saw Black Friday deals for something they'd previously bought at a higher price: last Wednesday I bought a new TV at Costco; on Friday it was reduced by $900. 

Excellent thoughts all:

Please chime for Cyber-Monday ... if you witness deals on:

Waves
Ominisphere
