If this was a realistic price, like $49, I'd have bought it already ... but seriously, $149 is ridiculous for a software flanger. I payed less for my Yamaha hardware flanger pedal which is awesome (for a flanger).

Not necessarily bribed. There's an alternative for the careful reader. Reading comprehension is mandatory. The other sentence you quoted is out of context, so I'm not holding my breath though.

The grass is still looking fake mate.

That hardware dongle offloads the DSP from the CPU. It’s not “just” a dongle. For some, that’s a benefit worth the cost.
It's entirely ricidulous. It's a dongle for the braindead. If UA's own chart is to be believed, one stereo instance of the A/DA Flanger uses 15,9% of one Sharc. This should mean you ought be able to run 50 instances on an Octo Satellite.

I - on the other hand - just ran 200 instances of the native version on my laptop which cost about as much as an Octo Satellite a little less than two years ago (12/2017) - at 128samples of latency without my CPU nearly maxing out. (Reaper reported ~50%, Windows reported a little less than 80%).

See? That's why people call it a dongle. It's because of its piss-poor DSP-performance at insane prices. UAD is for the gullible that easily become victims of ridiculous marketing claims.

Edit: with 280 instances running, my system ended up becoming sluggish. (28tracks each with 10 instances inserted)

Edit 2: and for 1000 bucks I could built a machine that would run circles around my modest laptop.

Edit 3: one has to thank PA though for helping to make this nonsense a lot more transparent.
Like I said, for some people, that’s what they want. Don’t look at me though, I never bought into the DSP hype.
Doesn't that "dongle" also come disguised as a very good audio interface? I mean, I wouldn't have one but I can completely see others finding this highly desirable.

BTW, I too am put off by UAD's pricing and the underwhelming performance on their chips. I'd also prefer the native method.

Yes? I didn't get that mail yet then.. but you know what? With the monthly voucher that kind of brings it into an almost reasonable price range. I probably still won't bite ATM as there's that insane IK group buy running, but...
