    we'll not advertise the product very much, since there is just a little time left before christmas (and we are busy cause the release of lime, coral, titanium2)

    - Nebula should be available on 23-12 if and only "if" we don't discover last-minute bugs
    - The name is simply "N4"
    - we'll post several cool videos asap
    - today we are working on installers; it means the product will enter tomorrow the betatesting stage. It was already alphatested, product could be delayed if something goes wrong.
    - we'll release vst3, vst2, aax, au, but ONLY 64 bits and ONLY vstgui4 (so no legacy mode). Several legacy hosts will simply NOT work even if we released 32 bits (for example wavelab 5).

    - protection: nebula will be protected in the same way we protected acqua plugins. No more init files to copy.
    - Basically there is a way for using the new nebula4 as a nebula3 server so it is completely backward compatible
    - N4 is a Core9. So fully debugged





    - N4 will be a server version
    - planned price is 239
    - anyway we'll have:

    10% discount cause christmas, till 9 jan 2017
    20% discount because it is a preorder till 1 feb 2017

    - and as nebula customer you'll have:

    20% discount if you are a nebula3 pro owner
    40% discount if you are a nebula3 server owner

    - or alternativelyl you'll use the coupon we'll send on next days because acqua plugins, ranging from 5% to 45% depending on what you've bought. You CANNOT add it to nebula3 discount. Basically maximum discount will be 45% (to add to 30%)

    - At the same time, Nebula3 pro will be removed from the shop (and supported). We'll remove at the same time also upgrade packets from nebula3 pro to nebula3 server

    - Nebula3 server will still be available at the new price of 139 eur. If you bought nebula3 server just recently (ie black friday) you could open a ticket - not today - and get maybe a better offer. Nebula3 server will not be upgraded immediatly . We don't know when, we don't know how. There will not be a different upgrade policy between nebula3 server to N4 apart what I listed before. So you will NOT pay the difference; we don't know how much or when.



    So just to explain it clearly
    from 239 the initial price will be 167

    if you are a nebula3 server customer the price will be 100
    if you are a nebula3 pro customer the price will be 133 (so lower than the new nebula3 server price).


    Now included in this incredible price we decided to add a free acqua, rose (wait for my next post). Rose was planned for 69 eur (and I think it is a very very very fair and honest price) but we decided to release it as a N4 gift, so free for N4 customers and ONLY for them


    I repeat it clearly: N4 is fully backward compatible with Nebula3 server. There will be a trial version. N4 free will be released later.

    Why simple when it can be done complicated ?

    N4 comes out around Xmas and preorder goes up to Feb ?
    To sum it up, upgrades can be done till Feb at discount ?

    But lets go bazar and bargain:
    Hows about a very very very fair and honest price plus a super plus time limited Xmas deal for the early birds,
    another 10% would seriously help me out there, deal ?

    i'm not aware of any cracked version of Nebula but just because nobody is giving a shit and not because it's uncrackable.
    big mouth, and then their shop runs on Joomla ???

    I've been waiting for N4 going on 3 years now. Let's just pray Tim P, Tim Cupwise, CDSM and Alex B jump on the N4 train soon.

    Ha ha, Acustica delivers yet again. Nebula is my favorite thing since sliced bread, but I've never read ANYTHING more confusing than this shit. And that's before you ever open the software, you have to flip over backwards and do a triple mental summersault just to understand what it is and how much it will cost.

    "Price is EXTREMELY simple." - Acustica.

    Things are very simple: a product is priced 239 and the intro price is 167.
    Then people will receive personal discounts, depending on what they bought
    But there are so many questions we are forced to explain all possible discounts in the detail.
    Yes old joomla, we are moving to a new one. A shop is a shop, you don't need rocket science there

    Me too! But I have to say I'm not loving how Acustica aren't telling us which of the 3rd party developers who helped popularise Nebula 3, are on board with N4.
    Seems they are only making that info public after the pre-orders and time-limited discounted upgrade route is no longer available.
    Feels rather underhand. I like transparency when I'm dealing with any business. Instead we're expected to step out on faith and that wreaks of the usual arrogance that I see from this developer.
    I really think we should know if our beloved Alex B, Tim P et al are involved before we jump on board this new train.

    I asked AlexB:
    Hello Alex, now with the release of N4, I wonder if you will upgrade your libraries to use the new features of core 9 and skins? Thank's
    And he answered
    Not at the moment. It will cost a lot and doesn't improve the sound.

    Ah, thanks for sharing.
    It's sounding more and more like we won't see many of the developers we've known and loved, adopting N4 tech and Acustica's new 3rd party business model...
    I can only guess this is why AA have been so obtuse when asked who is actually on board, thus far...
