After all my posts about metadata and sound library apps a couple of people suggested the idea of approaching the developers of SoundMiner to see if a group buy discount might be possible, so I contacted Steve at SoundMiner and asked. I already own SoundMiner Pro and use it constantly at my work studio, but I really need SoundMiner at home, so I have a vested interest too!
His reply: “10% discount for 10 people, 20% discount for 50 people”
So what do you think? Can we do a simple show of hands and see if this is worth pursuing?
Soundminer V4pro US$899: 10% discount US$809, 20% discount US$719
Soundminer V4 Standard US$599: 10% discount US$539, 20% discount US$479
Also note, this potential discount applies to the imminent new SoundMiner HD
Soundminer HD US$199: 10% discount US$179, 20% discount US$159
Soundminer HD Plus US$399: 10% discount US$359, 20% discount US$319
Please read this to see the feature set for SoundMiner HD
We’d really need to hit the 50 person mark to make it significant, so please add a comment if you would be in – no total commitment at this stage, just to see if its possible. SoundMiner HD is 4-6 weeks away so lets see what support there is for this idea over the next month….
More info on the various SoundMiner versions here
And spectral search looks interesting
NOTE: this group buy is for new licenses, not upgrades!
GROUP BUY is now CLOSED, thanks everyone!

Early xmas present to myself?! I’m in…
I might be in for V4pro
I’d definitely be interested in Soundminer HD Plus for home, plus an additional V4 Pro license or two for work.
HD definitely, possibly V4 standard.
Meant HD +…. foopid stingers hit send too quickly
If I decide against going with Basehead for home, I’m in for HD.
I’m definitly in for a V4, but need to buy it within a month … maybe it’ll be before the HD release (in which case i’ll be out).
Hey David
Request a 30 day demo of the version you want to buy, the SoundMiner folk are very helpful in that respect!
I did, in fact i need it from this monday and will run the demo this month. So i’ll need to buy before the end of the demo (which i guess i could extend a bit if asked nicely).
You’re right, Steve is really reactive ! I was impressed. In fact we talked yesterday and i asked him about the HD released date but the programming guys weren’t sure yet.
Count me in for HD
Count me in for HD plus
Rather in for this too, desperately need Soundminer (any version).
Cheers, Lou (syncsounds).

I’m definitely interested in the HD. Of course I don’t have any money at the moment but maybe by the time HD actually gets released I can be ‘in’.

Thanks for sorting this out Tim. I’d definitely be interested in some level. Ideally V4Pro but would have to see what happens.

This is a great idea, but I already own Soundminer V4pro.
I’m in for HD or HD Plus . . . haven’t decided which.
i am in for soundminer hd plus.
Can’t commit just yet, but I’m interested.
I’d be in for an HD (or Plus) upgrade. I’m Soundminer V4 PRO at the mo, so I guess I’d be Plus?
it has to be a new license, not an upgrade
Potentially in for HD or HD+.
Ha – and NOW that I’ve read what SM HD (and plus) is about…. I’m not interested. Talk about marketing gone awry…. I assumed HD would be an improvement over Soundminer V4 Pro…. But it appears we’ve been better than HD for some time now – is that 3D 1080p or something? uncompressed 96K.
We need upgraded acronyms.
if you are comparing to the visual HD equivalent, HD is not the top level of anything visually it would be:
SD/DV -> HD -> 2k -> 4k -> 35mm -> 70mm
or something…
HD Plus. I’m in.
HD Plus here. Anyone know if it will run on 10.4 though? (the press release says 10.5+)
I can’t commit right yet as I’m setting up my edit suite at the moment. But if I manage to finance some of my purchases I would have the money to pay for SM HD+ and would definitely be interested.I’ll post when I know!
I’m in for a v4

Need HD plus here!
Put me down as a maybe for:
1 V4 license
1 Mini-Miner to V4 Pro upgrade. I am hoping since this upgrade costs $700 that it will qualify for the discount.
Thanks,
Nick
sorry Nick, as mentioned above the discount only applies to new licenses, not upgrades…
Totally understand. Put mr down for 2 V4’s for now then. I will speak with Steve tomorrow on the matter…
I know I said I’m in for HD, but I want to make it HD + 🙂
