We did the research for you. All your Black Friday deals in one place
Black Friday season is here, and in the world of music production, it has essentially evolved into an entire month of discounts. Instead of waiting for a single day, companies now roll out offers throughout the month of November, making it the ideal time to upgrade your gear & equipment. Many deals are already live, and several are worth serious attention, especially if you are planning to invest in new instruments or effects. So let us dive into some of the best Black Friday Deals to check out this year
Arturia
One of the biggest highlights this year comes from Arturia. Their flagship V Collection 11, which includes a massive library of classic synths, modern instruments, pianos, horns, flutes, and more, is available for 50% off. This collection remains one of the most versatile offerings for producers who want a broad palette of sounds. Arturia’s effects bundle is also 50% off, offering compressors, EQs, preamps, filters, delays, reverbs, distortion tools, tape effects, and creative processors such as time-based multi-effects and granular modules. Almost every mixing or shaping need is covered here.
Also, if you’re purchasing through Plug-in Boutique, there is an added benefit where every order comes with a free plugin, and these bonuses rotate weekly. It’s a small but valuable perk that can make these purchases even more worthwhile.
Universal Audio
Universal Audio is also running a major promotion in which their Signature Edition Version 3, featuring over 60 plugins, is heavily discounted, and for those who don’t need the full collection, UA’s “Mixtape” bundles offer flexibility where the options include three plugins for $50 or a ten-plugin bundle for $10, which you can redeem for any eligible tools. The UAD Essentials Edition has also returned at $50, now expanded with additional plugins, making it one of the strongest value deals of the season.
Waves
Waves is preparing its annual tradition as well. Each year, the company releases a free plugin for Black Friday, and while the new one hasn’t been announced yet, users can sign up in advance to receive it the moment it drops.
Native Instruments
Native Instruments is running a loyalty sale, offering 50% off upgrades for the new Komplete 15 bundles, and this discount applies only to existing users, so if you already own a previous version and have been waiting to update, this is the moment.
iZotope
Alongside NI, iZotope is offering 40% off on RX, 50% off on Neutron, 60% off on Nectar, and 25% off on Ozone, so if you really wish to get hold of one of those, now seems to be a really good time to purchase.
Minimal Audio
Minimal Audio has gone all-in with 50% off sitewide, including their synth Current and the new vocal effects tool, Evoke.
Slate Digital
Slate Digital is offering a rare non-subscription bundle on Plug-in Boutique, with four plugins from the Virtual Mix Rack available for $50.
Output
Output has also launched 50% off everything, including the widely used creative plugins Portal and Thermal.
Softube
Softube is releasing new weekly deals throughout the month, with standout options like their Model 84 Juno emulation.
Even with all these sales, the best rule still applies: don’t buy something just because you are getting some huge discounts. Focus on tools you genuinely need, wait for the right offer, and make informed decisions as more deals roll out through November.
