What music software actually costs at the retailers VST Deals tracks. Prices refresh daily, and every figure links to the listing it came from.
Two things make plugin pricing confusing, and both are handled here. The cheapest number a retailer shows is often an upgrade or an education licence you cannot buy as a new customer, so the “from” prices below are only ever full licences. And a great deal of what looks like a product is really an expansion for it, which is listed separately on each product page rather than mistaken for the instrument.
