There's always more gear to buy, and everyone likes saving money
This is meant to be a software-focused thread, but if there's a really good hardware deal you see, go ahead and post it.
IK Multimedia is currently running a group buy on
Sampletank 2 expansions through May 31st. You don't need to own Sampletank, you get the full engine and the "XT" sampleset with an expansion purchase. It's an excellent value: $50 for the first expansion set, and then additional ones depending on how many other people participate in the buy - and
you get to pick which ones. It's at 3:1 right now and on course to reach 5:1, or even 6:1. Plus you can stack your purchases, so if you have a budget of $200-$300 you could potentially snag their entire library(30 sets of about 1gb each).
AudioMIDI runs a revolving door of deals - some are good, others mediocre. Right now they're holding a 4/$20 (normally 1/$50) allowing you choose among 10 of the
R.A.W. loop libraries, and an upgrade deal on the
"Gold Edition" R.A.W. You can demo the sounds
here. I should point out that both these loops and the Sampletank ones are from Sonic Reality, so they probably have some overlap.
Producerloops is running a sale on a broad array of products - mostly loops - through April 30th.
Sonalksis has put a whopper of a discount on their entire plugin suite(from $2910 to $699) through April 25th. They also have deals on smaller portions of the suite in the $125-300 range.
The
KVR Marketplace forum has a lot of deal news, as well as people selling software licenses. I picked up most of the deals listed here from threads there.
