Just like with Waves, the honeymoon will eventually be over and people will look elsewhere for plugins. They are still relevant, and have been paid for many times over from an R&D perspective. Many of their plugins have been around fo a long long time. Where there appears to be a difference of opinion is Waves and their $29 plugins. What happens next will be interesting.I think we are saying the same thing for the most part. Obviously, Waves didn't reduce their $200 plugs to $29 out of generosity. I probably even use more SoundToys than Waves Of course both also make very unique tools as well. I just like how they seem to fit and the sonic results. But when it comes to my production, I use many more UAD tools than Waves.
#Uad sale plus
I had the UAD-1 card and traded that card in for a duo card plus an an octo card.
I'm thinking that for myself I have paid 5 UAD dollars to every Waves dollar. Around the same time I purchased UAD under Mackie when it was less expensive. I remember paying several hundred dollars for Waves Native Power Pack which was nothing but a few reverbs. I'm not sure when Waves released their first VST.
#Uad sale full
I can't imagine paying full price for any of their tools unless I need it for a client. This tells me they might have hit their ceiling and need to discount a bit more. This year they are offering the 3 pack bundle plus 1 more for $400. But if UAD is overpriced, wouldn't they go or have gone out of business? Last October 2016 they offered the 3 pack bundle for $400. Having a copy protection that is 100% protects me from subsidizing the warez users.
#Uad sale cracked
My point about protection is how heavily cracked Waves was when their $29 plugs cost $200. I'm loving their past year of $29 plugs, but unless they are drastically changing their business model or release poor quality tools, something is in the works. Either a WUP change, big upgrade, a huge secret revolutionary don't know.
What I meant was, IMO they can't sell $29 plugs forever. Does Waves put out bad plugins? Absolutely, but their great plugins are just that, great. All things being equal, I would say Waves has the upper hand on pricing now and in the future. Hard to say which would outlast the other. Both companies seem to be on solid ground at the moment.
