As much as I love the Abbey Road plates, saturator, CLA compressors and other plugins I've purchased I will be moving on. From our flagship Mercury and Horizon bundles to specialized vocal manipulation plugins and collections delivering the complete analog magic of Abbey Road Studios and SSL 4000 consoles, Waves offers a comprehensive selection of premium tools for producers, mixers, music makers, and all other audio professionals.

To say I'm disappointed does not express my deepest displeasure in your new strategy. Waves Products All Bundles Premium Bundles.

Why would I pay $250/year to have access to software that's being forced upon me simply because a few plugins I use only come in the premium service? What value is that to me? If I wanted, needed, desired, or had a creative necessity for a particular product, I'd buy it! Telling me to pay a yearly maintenance fee for 100+ products I'll never use to get the 20 or so I want to use is not in any way a bargain or even realistically consumer oriented. Your new business model selfishly puts your company and bottom line ahead of the end user forcing us to anti up to an expensive subscription based service with literally no tiered pricing options to pick and choose which plugins we value. Waves V13, the new version of Waves plugins, features compatibility with Apple M1 and Windows 11 plus ultra-sharp HiDPI graphics for select plugins. Particularly the ability to purchase only what I want and need and find relevant to my workflow.

I have been using Waves Plugins for years and have been satisfied with the affordability, quality, and usefulness of the plugins. Waves Outragous 'Creative Access' Subscription
