We are India’s leading music and recording software distributors / dealers. Because of the new GST act, we are able to sell you original plugins, virtual instruments, loop libraries, DAWs, and more as both a box and download editions.

Some software products come only in box formats (example: Spectrasonics).

Some products from Vienna Instruments and East West give you a the installers on a Hard drive.

But now, almost all software is sold purely as download versions = activation key + download link.

All these are legal, official sales. And the prices give you the advantage of claiming 18% IGST credit when you buy from SudeepAudio.com (both box and download editions.)

Here are the only differences between boxed and download versions of a product like say FL Studio:

The boxed version of FL Studio (now discontinued):
a. How to register serial printed instructions leaflet
b. The serial number pasted  inside by us local dealers.
c. the outer carton box (which is indeed a feel-good thing to show off to visitors)

The download version (any FL edition):
a. the serial and registration link is emailed to you
b. you download the latest installer (size is about 800 Mb in size incase of FL Studio)
c. user manual as pdf or online
d. product is delivered quickly (usually within 1 hour on working days!)

All software listed on our web-store is ALWAYS with us in stock.

So go ahead and explore here >>


Note:
Once a software serial (or box-pack) is purchased, it is non-returnable under any circumstances – whether registered or not.

Global giants like Amazon got us Indians hooked to “buy now, return in 10 days” in order to build their own customer database, and also get us addicted to their store. Over time, Amazon too has discontinued their “Return in 10 days and get full refund” policy for all electronic hardware products. And rightly so.

Worldwide, any software once sold is not taken back by the sellers under any circumstances or for any reason (whether the serial is registered or not). You can always re-sell it or transfer it to someone else in your music circle if not needed. We have introduced a new service to help you do so here

But what if you end up getting a product (i.e. hardware) that is defective upon arrival? In such a case, once the brand’s authorised service centre checks it thoroughly and confirms the manufacturing defect, we will definitely have it replaced at no extra cost. A little patience is requested in such cases. So far in 17+ years of our business operations, we may have had only 2-3 such cases! But nevertheless, we are here to stand with you and provide the required support EVEN AFTER PRODUCT WARRANTY EXPIRES.

Our only request is that you be sure of what you want and then place an order on our webstore. If not sure of what to order, you can always email us or call us to know more information on the product.
