SCOPE 14-DSP Booster Board

Jan Nolte · Post by **Jan Nolte** » Mon May 17, 2004 4:25 pm

Does someone bought a SCOPE 14-DSP Booster Board with one of the packages? Soon I will get some money and want to buy a booster-card for it. At the moment I don't know how much it will be exactly. Maybe I have to sell the package or one or two devices of it, to finance the card.
My questions: Is the package still registered on the booster-card or will it be deliver seperatly and unregistered? And, is it possible to re-register some devices of the packages (mix'n'master) or only the whole package?

I think the SRB does not come with a Plugin pack.

Sure, it does. In all german shops I found the SRB, it was combined with a package.

The dealer from infinitevortex.com where I bought my card from two weeks ago, told me that the SRB does not come with plugin packs. (I have not received the board yet, they said it's on its way from Germany)
Who knows, maybe, they are keeping the plugins and resell them.

What packs did you see bundled with SRB?

no packs ship with the new DSP board. but when you register it all new SRB will be flagged with the software.

@BingoTheClowno:

Look at http://www.amadeus-shop.de/ There they ask you, if you want the Mix'n'Master or the Synth'n'Sampler Pack before you can put it into your "shopping card"

@antar: Are you sure? Why then does the shop ask me for the package I want?

Jan, I think I understand now. You paid 1,399.00 EUR which is about 1600.00 US dollars (which includes the price for one pack), but I paid only 1250.00 because I told my dealer I don't want a plugin pack.

I can't find a shop which offers it without a pack! This would be the easiest way for me.

I will find out.

but you may be right only 1 pack comes with SRB and this choice is done upon registering.

if CWA still sells the software (as always) in sealed envelopes containing just a registration code, you can easily sell the complete bundle without additional charges.

CWA might have changed the usual procedure, though, but a call (or mail) to your favourite shop should clarify the situation.
I never got anything but those envelopes from them, which are unlikely to be related to a particular piece of gear, since they are closed

You could ask if the software comes on CD, if there's a printed manual, nice box etc - then they'll probably tell you about the envelope - or they don't know at all because you're the first to ask

or it works different due to changed product policy...

At https://www.jrrshop.com/ - creamware
you'll find both options
Powerpulsar with both packs - $ 1599
and Scope SRB $ 1199
...and Scope Pro $ 1749
...guess at least 1 of this packets will dissapear after sellout
SCOPE 14-DSP Booster Board is the "new" name,
it seems on http://www.cwaudio.de/
This looks like the Scope SRB, without software, and without In/Out 's

this is how i see it so far

How can that be!!!?!!!!

Just looked on jrrshop and, for me being in the UK, they are selling creamware plugs cheaper than creamware themselves!!!!!

Ex. PSYQ - Creamware 198EUR (~136GBP for me) and jrrshop is selling this for 110GBP!!!!

Drat!

EDIT: I just realised that the prices I been looking at must be without VAT. Phew!

Well,

They sell em cheaper because Eric is a cool azz mofo? hehe all kidding aside, JRR has great prices on CW products and he knows a good deal about them aswell, I think he takes a short profit on the cards/plugs to get more people into the platform.

That would be my guess.

I asked the two german online-shops who sell the srb boards, only one of them answered. They said, the srb can't be sell without the pack and they also guess (they don't really know) that the pack is pre-registered on the board. So I can't sell the pack without using the transfer service and I can't use the transfer service because I have no credit card! That sucks! Why do they make it so difficult for me to buy a creamware card? If someone have the scope pro (and therefore both packages) and want to buy a srb, why does he have to pay twice for the package??

Scope Pro = 1700€
Scope SRB (14 DSP) =1400€
300€ difference. 300€ for all the extra plugins you would pay more than 1000€ if you buy it separatly? Strange cost ratio!

is there any way NOT to pay with credit cards, so i can pay when i get the card ?

SRB does not ship with any packs. However when you register an SRB (production date this month). It will be give you the option to chose ONE Pack when you register it.

dealers who are offering the pack with the board are a) have stock produced prior to the cwa announcment and in this regard they have to give the packs. b) they simply getting buyers attention that their stock contain the packs for free.

that is how I see it
