  1. There was a time sonitus plugs were sold by cakewalk as VST but they were 32bit only. 

    I'm maybe old fashioned but I like the gui (maybe cos sonitus were my main plugins for years). Before pro channel came along you used to double click the eq section of mixer pane and sonitus eq would jump up. Have we really advanced or just prettier now 😂

  2. it all seems like a bit of a race to the bottom. there are hundreds of companies and everything is sort of the same product but with a different gui. Wouldn't surprise me to find out some people start a company with profesional looking plugins, start at an expensive price but with heavy intro discount, then just run constant "AMAZING" sales for a couple of years. then close down the company and start again with same code but different gui vsts 😂

    Cheapskate customers don't help either. If I was in the industry i would offer cheap plugins with no discounts and no after sales support and my tagline would be"Cheap plugins- come get them you pathetic Piece Of Sh!t"

    For $30 bucks/year you can buy an insurance for all your licenses in a specific iLok device (the Zero Down Time or ZDT). That's $2.50/month and IMO is pretty reasonable, specially if you have thousands of $ in software licenses on the device.

    I also like iLok and would like to have this option for every single software I ever  bought. It'd save me a lot of headaches (f.i I already lost one Arturia's Collection license the last time my system HD went south).

    Better than that would be serial numbers that you can type as many times as you want/need but, unfortunately, this kind of SW registration belongs to the past.

    there are a fair few companies that allow non dongle, no internet activation. from my installer folder:

    serials or keyfile: 2caudio, acondigital,black rooster, blue cat, boz, camel audio, fabfilter, fuse audio, hornet, kilohearts, klanghelm, klevgrand, samplemagic,siraudio,tokyodawn,toneboosters, u-he, voxengo, wavesfactory, aom, auditory, cravedsp, ddmf, dmgaudio, imageline, kuassa, melda, overtonedsp, psp (though some modern ones are ilok), sonimus, sugaraudio, tbproaudio, tritik, valhalla

    i'm sure there are many morebesides.

    with regards to PluginAlliance I'm not going to pay $150 a year. maybe if they merged with slate and the sub was $100 might be tempted.

  4. I like PC EQ very much. Especially the hybrid mode with the automatic wide boosts and narrower cuts. Would use pro channel all the time for everything except that when you buy expensive VSts kind of feel obligated to use them instead so you don't feel as if you've wasted money.

    would love to see PSP adapt their SQUAD retro EQs and some of their compressors to prochannel.

  5. "Since a lot of effort has gone into the development of this new tool, the price is a little higher than the other DDMF plugins: $99 (well, still a steal compared to the $8000 you'd have to spend for the hardware version). Full Bundle and All Plugin Bundle owners get a 25 percent discount... for this to take effect, please enter MDEBUNDLE into the voucher form that will appear at checkout. Please use the same email address you've used for the bundle purchase; if this is an issue, please get back to me. If you are not a Full Bundle or All Plugin Bundle users, please do not use this bundle as the purchase will still go through, but the license will not end up in your account."
