Anyone buy any gear during the Black Friday sales?

[nightlight]

I did my shopping today, since there were good deals on the stuff I was eyeing. I bought UAD's Complete 13 bundle, and the Neural DSP Archetype; Nolly and Parallax plugins.

Got a good deal on UAD Complete, since I already had a tonne of their plugins. The Neural stuff was also half price, so it was a good time to get it.

What I am really hoping for is that the Neural DSP plugins get ported to the Quad Cortex in the near future. No way of knowing which ones will get compatibility first, so a bit of a toss of the dice on my picks. I did it based on reviews I found online.

Used all the gear to get some great tones in my tiny home "studio" today, if you can call it that. This is the two VSTs, plus some plugins from Complete 13, namely the API Vision Console Emulation and some EQs. It's actually pretty minimal processing, but I am really happy with how this sounds.

I think they plan to port all the plugins IIRC. They get an X designation, e.g., Archetype Plini X, once ported

A little early, but I did pick up a Boss SDE-3000D a few weeks ago since the prices went down to $250. Technically not a Black Friday deal but that is the only thing that I have picked up in the past month.

It's not Black Friday yet. It's only Tuesday.

I usually buy software on Black Friday. It can get crazy cheap.

Both Ableton and Arturia had early Black Friday sales so I upgraded both. At this rate in a few years, the entire month of November will be Black Friday

Purchased a new Catalin Bread Talisman reverb.

Two sets of 9's.
Figured Id give them a try, my hands have been bothering me.

I like it quite a bit. Also have the DD-500. Can the DD-500 do what the SDE-3000D does? Yep, so I don't really need it. However, I like being able to quickly adjust on the fly using the buttons on the front panel of the SDE.

Yes. But it wasn't really on sale.
