Thank you for confirming
What about my original question? Is there a possibility?

On desktop we decided to give it away for free to previous Dub Station users, so it's going to take more time than usual to recover costs. We don't like to discontinue products, but unfortunately, we had to end the agreement for that plugin, and offering Dub Filter for free felt like the right thing to do.

I would also like to thank you for this very honest move. Unluckily, already owning Dub Station, it means I also already own this Dub filter. I suppose we must be happy anyway, since this new version is a little bit expanded.
But…I was guessing…since we already have the previous version on desktop…is there any chance we could have the iOS version instead? Or at least some kind of discount? It could be even better for you, since instead of giving away a 59$ plugin you would give a 10$ one. And it could be a way to show some desktop users the possibilities of iOS music making and leading them to be interested in your other iOS plugins, instead of giving them a duplicate of what they already have.
A no as an answer could be understandable, but don’t think it’s not possible because of how the AppStore works. Other developers can do it, so there is a way

Sorry, forgot to reply. App Store purchases are completely separate from our store. Apple doesn't provide any way to link external purchases. It's also not possible to offer any targeted or personal discount on the App Store (afaik). They only allow 100 codes per version to give the app away for free (usually for reviews, beta testing, etc...), definitely not enough to offer Dub Filter in the same way as we do on Desktop.

Thank you anyway. I tried to pose the question ready to accept any answer.
The fact that you answered providing infos underline that you understood the eventual request (and also underline the difference between a professional like you and someone just coming in in a forum saying “stop being so cheap”: let professionals answer)
As already said, we must in any case thank you for the correct move to provide buyers of Alborosie Dub Station with a free version on desktop. 👍🏼

Just another question: the fact that you can’t sell Alborosie DS anymore will not have effects on those who already bought it, correct?
Will the installer and offline activation license remain in our accounts (as it is now) and allow us to install the product we paid for in the future? Or at least will keeping a copy of them in our computers allow us to reinstall it?

Honestly, building your own spring reverb is no rocket science and a fun project keeping you away from the screen.
You get a wide choice of springs with different lengths and diameters on ebay and mixing them in different combinations, including stringing up different lengths and diameters into one, then playing with actuators and pickups will give you a variety of spring reverb sounds that will put the spring reverb police to shame.
Oh and while you're at it, consider building an oil can delay too 😃

Oh, we have experimented with several spring reverb tanks over the years. One of the latest results is a true stereo spring reverb, now available as an IR in the new DIY bank of Fog Convolver, and hopefully soon to be added to Springs.

Have a look at this post:

We have also built some plate reverbs (even smaller versions, but I don't have any photos at the moment):

We don't require an internet connection or dongles like iLok to use our plugins, so, as long as you keep a backup of the installer and offline license, and you meet the latest system requirements, the plugin will work forever. We are still hosting the activation and installers, and I don't think this will change any time soon. But it's always a good idea to back up everything that you can. One of the reasons why we offer the offline license.

It’s just awesome that there are such developers on iOS as audiothing, tal and fabfilter. The trend is quite clear and in the future everyone will be here, but I appreciate what we have now

More big developers taking iPadOS/iOS seriously as production environments is a huge win for all of us.
