I was in the US this morning on business, and the DIGITONE sound packs cost $9.99 USD which is $13.46 CDN approx at current rate of exchange.
I flew home and checked again and the CDN store pricing is $19.99 +13% HST
UPDATE AFTER TODAYS SUMMER “sale”
THIS IS AMAZING… now that we have everything on sale… ALL sounds packs have gone up to $40 in Canada, and the 50% discount brings them all back to the $20 price?
What the hell is going on here?
Hmm weird, I got a sound pack back in February and I was charged in USD.
You can always access the website through a proxy but yeah the CAD sucks right now
Wow, that’s crazy. I moved a few years ago and noticed machine prices here appear significantly higher. And they’re not as popular as my kijiji experience shows.
However and THIS IS AMAZING… now that we have everuything on sale… ALl sounds packs have gone up to $40 in Canada, and the 50% discount brings them all back to the $20 price? Feels like a Canadian Tire type sale (over price it so you can put it on sale?)
What the hell is going on here?
Maybe I’m confused , I’d guess they’d be priced at similar amounts although the App Store USd $10 is often £10 which isn’t equal , but it’s not too far off. ( ideally it’s £8 ish)
And secondly I’m not sure elektron manage international currency rates though that could be an amazing conspiracy theory to see on various synth forums , matching some that already exist.
yes, but read my top post for the original rates from May ---- ??

Now today everything is on sale 50% but the original Pack prices indicate that they are $40, when clearly a month ago they were half that. I want an explanation.
This is also not an Elektron conspiracy theory… this is a Dan wants to know whats going on and why you’ve doubled the prices theory?
