Waves is an unstoppable force in the world of plugins, and even though Black Friday 2021 has come to an end, Cyber Monday is on the way, and the company's legendary deals are still out in force.
This year, Waves is offering big discounts on all its plugins using the code BF21, plus free plugins when you spend over $50 – and even an entirely free new plugin, the Lofi Space.

Sign up now to guarantee your place at the front of the queue. Waves has dropped its brand-new free plugin, the Lofi Space!
There aren’t many companies that can boast as comprehensive a library of plugins as Waves, and there are even fewer who offer discounts this colossal.
That means you could get yourself a comprehensive modeling suite, such as Waves GT3 or PRS SuperModels for as little as $29, while FX staples such as the CLA-76 Compressor and Renaissance Axx can also be had for under $30.
To take advantage of this killer deal, load your cart up with your chosen plugins and use the code BF21 to get the discount. Even better, spending $50 nets you one free plugin, $90 gets two, and $120 lands you three free – these free options will be emailed to you once you make your purchase.
Given there are 129 plugins that can be had for free, if you play your cards right, you could end up saving hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
As usual, Waves has not disappointed with its sale this year, and if you've been biding your time to stock up on the next plugins to take your recordings up a notch, now's the time to strike.
