Please xplain why you would charge VAT-registered companies VAT? The new VAT rules of 2015 does not warrant that. All software companies within EU like Native Instruments, Ableton and so on waive or pays back VAT to companies who supply their VAT-registration number whose validity can easily be checked at the official EU web site.xmonsta wrote:20% discount off PULL - the Ableton Device/VST controller for a limited period.
USA, UK and any other customers outside the EU will not be charged VAT.
Due to EU rules brought in from 2015, we now have to charge all EU customers VAT, which make the discount slightly less for EU customers.

When you as a non-EU body charge VAT there's nowhere to turn to ask for a VAT repayment either, as there is no clear national tax authority to consult. Even if there was the sums are typically too small to be valid.
The UK is part of EU. Why is the UK exempt? What is the agreement you claim to rely on?
Thanks for your response. It's interesting you're saying that software to private citizens and businesses within the UK are both VAT exempt. This is the opposite of how I thought it would work, which is that native parties would all pay VAT, but VAT registered businesses would balance the VAT payed to VAT on sales.xmonsta wrote:
We don't have to charge UK VAT, because we are a UK company. We only need to charge VAT to UK customers if we are UK VAT registered company - which we are not.
The EU should do it the same way the UK do it. You have to reach a certain threshold in the UK before you become VAT registered (and have to calculate and pay VAT). Having to calculate VAT in one country is no small task, let alone having to do it for 28. Many businesses in the EU may have to weigh up the costs vs benefits of doing business in the EU. It is a very odd decision indeed, and one that is bound to stifle small internet businesses and the innovation they bring to the EU.Stromkraft wrote: Thanks for your response.

Initially I was having a lot of dropouts with Max 7 - I could see in the signal chain that it was the PULL device dropping the signal as the devices before had signal, and the ones after did not.xmonsta wrote: Just wondering if there's any reason not to use Max 7? It seems really stable. It's still free.
Hi Markus,randi wrote:hi,
just bought Pull (and Lemur), and having a problem with missing letters. E.g. the "t" of Tension, the "a" of the transport button, the "y" of the keyboard button etc. Any idea how to fix this?
Also the surface of Pull does not cover the whole screen, there's about 2cm on both sides unused, and it does not go into immersive mode. Is that a lemur or a Pull problem?

Thx
