As the biggest shopping day is now upon us, I urge all students to take caution in what you purchase. Your studio and software toolbox is going to continue to grow and it should. Just keep in mind that you shouldn't spend your entire bank account on gear that you may not use right away. It's good to build up your studio over time and get familiar with what you add to your studio so that you can be efficient with your tools. It's a good idea to take the time to learn what you have in your studio and become a wizard using your tools. 

Tell me what you're looking to buy. I'm always interested in what has your attention right now and what you think will improve your workflow and overall production. 

Here are some really affordable options that I would recommend that will not break the bank and add some very useful tools to your studio. 

  1. PSP is one of the plugin companies that may not be familiar to you, but they have some great plugins. The NEX reverb and the HertzRider are currently on sale for $20.

  2. The new releases from iZotope are tools that will improve any workflow.

  3. Flux Pure Limiter is on sale for $39 and is a great limiter to use on individual tracks and your master bus.

  4. Looking for some great video editing software that is affordable? Check out FILMORA from Wondershare.

  5. Sonnox is offering 50% off most of their software. Now is a great time to go grab that Inflator plugin.

  6. Plugin Boutique is offering some great deals + iZotope Nectar Elements for free with any purchase.

I'm sure you will get some great deals this weekend. Just be sure you have some cash left in your pocket to pay the bills.
