Fractal ICONS Plugin

[Dez]

They do half price sales 2-3x a year ontop of intro prices.
Mayer was the one exception where it launched at a new high price but everything before that was cheaper.

They also use iLok just like this FAS plugin, and they're able to provide a 2 week demo. I've also never had them tell me no when I've requested a demo extension. I think they chalk it up to "that demo extension may end up turning into a sale" and it generally has in my case.

This is not a hard prediction to make - Fractal will release a demo in the next 5 -7 days. It would be inconceivable of them not to be doing this even as we "speak".

And on top of that with NDSP you get a discount if you git any and if you use a min EU addy it'll be in $ etc.
So Mayer was like 100€. Id sieged that any day in a plug I demo'd and dug.

No demo and 300€+ I'll think thrice about
Who am I kidding I'd likely get it anyways. Although the lack of expert parameters makes it less appealing.
Now if it was my go to models I'd aright have bought it. Lol

A demo is definitely coming. We are meeting with iLok this week to discuss this.

Individual volumes are $99. $299 is for the all four volumes.

“I currently own 3 FAS devices and have been using FAS for 15 years. Without a demo I’ll have no idea what it sounds like”

A token 4x12 in dyna cabs would go a long way.

100%. I think they should def add a standard 412 V30 and GB dynacab.

I understand the pricing but has anyone looked at a trajectory of how much you’d spend if they kept duplicating this amp list at $300 a pop? It would be a major incentive to give recurring discounts based on plugins you own. If you own a bunch of stuff and the brand just keeps doubling down to reward those purchases it makes a massive difference to even getting that first purchase over the line imo.

Yeah, I think some sort of tiered bundle pricing needs to be implemented for Complete versions. $299 for 1st, $199 for the 2nd, $150 for the 3rd. And if youre just doing the à la carte thing then they are always $99.

This seems like a pretty fair approach imo.

Is the plan to keep these siloed as individual plugins, or will there be some mechanism by which the effects/cabs in one plugin will be available in another?

Honestly I think that would be a pretty cool approach. FX/Cabs stay synchronous across all plugs, with the distinguishing factor between plugs being solely the amp line/type. Then you can mix and match plugs without trying to remember where reverb/delay/mod XYZ is.
