There's got to be one coming up before long. The actual end of summer isn't until Sept. 22 I believe though, so it may be a wait.

Interesting how Prop's Rack Extension bundles do not go down in price, only the single items (for example Radical Keys and Piano are now only $49 each, or you can buy the bundle for $149). I have always thought that the bundles go down in price too on sales?

Yes, same with the A-list drummels. €69/drummer and the bundle is still at €199, so you save nothing buying the bundle now, and I hoped it would also be a sale on the bundle. Well, the logic of sales is not always in my favour. Guess I will pass for now.

Guess I will pass for the moment. And the sale has not officially started yet. Usually things change and being added. So one just have to wait.

The sale prices are changing quite a lot until the sale is officially ready, say in a few hours, swedish lunch-time. So it can be another price now if clicking on the individual items from what the price says while browsing. So one have to just wait until all prices are ready.

Ah, thank you STP. I couldn't find any indication on the site, but that date makes sense because I know that Jiggery-Pokery's stuff is on sale until the 5th.

My suggestion is to keep an eye on this:
https://shop.cakewalk.com/1244/catalog/ ... D1YmOQyWXW

When that goes on sale, start bugging them ;)
That's what I did. It pretty consistently goes on sale too. It's difficult to just bug a developer to create a sale out of the blue. But if they have a sale of their own going on for other formats, I have no problem bugging them.

Or you could contact them and remind them that Propellerhead very likely has a Black Friday sale coming up...

Because charging owners of Reason 8 "full upgrade price" is dated and lame. ;-)

Native Instruments, as well as about any other major VST company out there, offers a higher upgrade price for those with older legacy (in this case Reason 1-7 users) versions of their software and a lower upgrade price for those who own the last previous version (in this case Reason 8 users). It would be nice to see a special upgrade price be made available to owners of the previous version. Call it a summer sale special, or call it a permanent pricing structure, either way it should happen :-D

NI's pricing isnt tiered like that. Its the same upgrade price across the board for komplete. Doesnt matter what version your on. Thats why most people only upgrade their komplete every couple of years to get the max benefit out of it unless theres some real must have addition

You could always grab the reason upgrade from a third party retailer like jrrshop, they have a set of coupon codes that always work (except during certain sales on certain items). Im pretty sure I got my R9 upgrade from them for 90-100
