    For as long as i can remember, R2R has been showing goodies on us every christmas, this year feels different, they've been missing.
    They've been great all year round, making every release feel like christmas, but damn i miss the xmas special supply drops. Let's hope they rain on us, January 1st. We're forever grateful for the goodies. Much love to r2r,vr and all the teams out there.

    If it's any consolation, last year R2R released all of their holiday goodies around new years. So there is still hope... Search "new year" on the sister site. They even released a UVI product two days after.

    I don't know but something is strange with your post..? I kinda get what you are saying but I think the heart of the mater is that you haven't found what you would consider good releases?

    Because it's a fact that they have released. And so I think that everyone will have a threshold on what they consider good or big releases. If they where completely in active then I would see your point but I'm sure what they have release is a big deal...just add the total amount and you'll see that yea...it's BIG.

    But what I think you mean is you haven't see "BIG NAMES" that some might be thinking about,,but no they haven't been sitting on there hands. :wink:

    Seriously, one more time a "why didn't I get any gifts from R2R at christmas" post?????

    Answer is simple : because they are neither Santa, neither your parents

    PS: and I assume you didn't send R2R any presents either, so...

    I think R2R did it deliberately to help developers in their Xmas sales and personally I'm paying tribute to their smartness. They're taking the both sides and win Tony's respect.:bow:

    You are the one we needed here. But I would predict you won't last long with this attitude :wink:
    No need to make a dispute out of every thread.

    In my business traditionally we gave our customers presents at year's end. But it became rampant from year to year. It took a lot of manpower to fullfill this tradition. So we decided to stop it and informed our clients with a letter. Some of our clients complained. But most of the time these were the worst customers. The rest, 99,5%, found us making a good job all year round and honoured it by accepting our decision.
    All this goes the same for R2R and yes V.R as well. :)
    So what?

    Macs are driving users nuts at the moment even the smallest updates and Logic not having enough memory. Many users workflows and templates broken after an update or upgrade to new OS. Forget about it.

    example!...remember these?! ...they were sooo fu***in wanted back then and i really believe they are great plugins even today, at 29$ its a steal https://www.bestservice.com/essential_studio_suite.html

    this year i bought so many great plugins from aroud webshops and i feel great, even stuff i wouldnt wanted to buy i bought for the great deals i was given, Soundtoys, MH, PA, Softube ecc... now more than ever plugins are so affordable and cheap, maybe not your favorite but im sure you use some of these examples, sorry to post here but i think there are peeps that dont even bother to check every week the offers they have,over the years i used cracked stuff and never made a dime of it, nor now but i feel a bit free that i payed something, still use cracked and i will but mostly out of convenience, ilok stuff indeed its true uses less memory also less hassle activating, deactivating blahblah, loads quickly and other advantages you might have ...please consider on buying something if you can afford... no one said to buy absolutely everything you could have, at least ...so many great deals i really believe we should have a thread informing users about them... still wishing other stuff im not having but its ok, i can do the same without ...but anyways, throughout the years R2R and not only has given us so much to try and maybe i wouldnt bought so much if it werent for someone to give me the chance to try out software, hope they are still there and have some love for us mortals, if they show up this year or not depends on them but winning doesent make them apear, so i really thnok we should let them decide ... HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Yep bought a few things myself as well as one very special plug to supply. To the op .. R2R is on the New Years Tip and has been for quite a while . Also I believe they are in Japan? And New Years is a big deal there Christmas not so much. Even though this post might have held those releases back because I’m sure the team hates being rushed and asked where stuff is when they have been most likely holding onto goodies just for the sake of having an awesome New Years release.


    How about this.. go through all your plugins and uninstall everything you don’t use and purge 60 percent of your plugins. Spend time streamlining your creative process , organize your sample library, learn how to use your favorites inside and out, read the manuals , check on the developers website and see what they are up to, watch some tutorials you have from the sister site. Delete duplicates and fifteen different versions of plugins because you hoard ..moral of the story:

    Less consumption more creating .

    Guys, for the fu*k sake! could you please stop moaning like b*tches about R2R? I think these types of posts even exacerbate current situation!
    But hell, yeah, I also feel R2R absence desperately.

    felt like xmas all year to me! picked up quite a few goodies from the 'other side' in 2018...and they're still over there to grab! :woot:

    if anything...on xmas, one could have gone thru all the 2018 releases they didn't see/get and just ACT like it was a present. :rofl:
