If you see an offer, don't hesitate

At the beginning of the year, dB Audioware were offering their guitar amp simulator vst 'Flying Haggis' for $10 instead of the usual $99. It said "$10 for 2010".

I thought "Nice, I've got all year to evaluate this amp sim!" I was pretty tight on money and figured I'd give it a few months before I decided. It appears, if you see a good offer, you should make up your mind pretty fast if you want to go for it or not.

'Flying Haggis' is now $29 I just noticed. No way I'll get it for that amount of money, knowing I could have had it for $10.

I did enjoy playing around with the demo, but there were some limitations to the sound. I could get some pretty cool dirty clean sounds out of it, but didn't have time to evaluate if it would work out in a mix for me or not.

It's a shame the creator of 'Flying Haggis' didn't state when the offer would run out.

I guess I'll delete that demo and move on to the next amp sim... (speaking of which, there are some amazing free ones that I might get back to in this blog)
