I love Scarlett mini. It’s a special set. It is base head with kick ass vocals. It’s just fun 🤩!

LOL - you heard it here first, folks!

I'll be keeping my Maestro Mini for many years to come, I assume. They are no doubt both very special sets.

Hard to believe it's 89% off.
This is common to see all year...

Cheers!

No but in all seriousness, it's best to add the item to your cart and track any price adjustments like that rather than going off of the landing page which is usually class-a BS.

Just as an example, I saved this picture a month or two ago (not this picture, the other one; this is now).
And if you go and look at Ali now. The price is the same; they just changed the Sale date :)
This is just common AE sales practices. The sales are only really significant because of the added coupons with the slight discounts for whatever sale is on, usually if you just keep an eye on the items you want you can get them for cheaper throughout the year as well.

Always watch what you wanna get on AE for a couple weeks before buying!

If you add to the cart (I have a hundred items in my cart :) ), it's going to be the same.
The price will change, and you won't know again unless you memorize all the prices.
Hmm, I don't have any will to do so :)
I save (screen capture items that I want) items in a folder so I know if the discount is real or not.
This blind shooting...no way! :)

You should try the Silvercat from Nicehck. One of my favorites.

i have heard good things, maybe ill throw those in. was thinking about the snowcat too.

in non cable discoveries,

more Pilgrim details from the cooler

Thank you, guys, for the entire Pilgrim discussion. Please keep it coming.

To clarify a few things that I can talk about:

  1. Yes, the Pilgrim is part of Elysian's new relationship with Effect Audio.
  2. We are helping with marketing, scaling up the manufacturing process, and QC to prepare for the demand.
  3. Yes, the Pilgrim will be available at Musicteck.
  4. It will launch sometime in May.
  5. The final price point will be $399, adjusted once more from the $499 at the show.
  6. There will be "other things" coming from Elysian this year that we can't talk about yet, and they're coming sooner than you think.
  7. Your feedback is being noted. We are unsure if it will go through one more retune or if what you heard at the show was final.
  8. Leo's comments about build changes and cable were correct; those are being finalized now.
If you have any questions, let me know, and I'll hopefully be able to clarify them as I am able to say more.

For price trends on AE, take some help from AliPrice Tracker.
I use it as a Chrome extension, so I can rate each item.
At least you will find out if there is a price surge, or if there is actually a more or less valid discount.
