Thanks, Yan. Been looking to legitimize on a rig. I should note the upgrade process isn't instant, the installation instructions are confusing (said to install "Opus" in one section), and when I goto my account, it says "PendingApproval", like my girlfriend's parents. And, no demo/trial period is offered to me right now.

I got the hardware tube reverb unit. It's rad. I almost got the SCHWERKRAFTMASCHINE, but plans fell through. Maybe in the future. I preordered this. I'll be sure to post pics of the Creme unit I'll undoubtedly win for you suckaz to gawk at here. Contest kidding aside, I do agree- it's a tough sell working on a lot of blind faith, especially if you haven't used any of their gear. I trust them enough for the $44.14 intro discount.

The bundle came out before ClusterFlux, and ClusterFlux was added, if memory serves.

To clarify my post, I was tongue-in-cheek referring to this stuff where your access to downloading sounds will expire and I guess you have to pay for access to them:

Yes. Hurry. Before your links expire.

The problems you mention aren’t Overloud problems, but JRR ones (and really just a delay in reply). It’s real simple to get this off Overloud’s site. Also, Rematrix isn’t just an typical IR player. Download this free stuff to find out how.

Hmm. It’s not working here either now. I ended up getting it through JRR for the 2 buck more. May seem like a chumpmove, but they’ve earned some loyalty from me over the years in several ways. In the interest of public service, I emailed Overloud about the discount issue. You may want to as well.

Don’t forget to login if you own their other stuff. I had a 20% coupon code. $39.20 Also jrrshop got it for $41.16 with code GROUP.

if only all manuals were written like haiku. Now I’m reading it with Morgan Freeman’s voiceover in my head.

"Aging The quest for referencing “The One” hardware unit is pretty much in vain, simply as it does not exist after all these decades. The electroluminescent panel and the photocells inside the T4B circuit as well as further electronic components are subject to aging effects which significantly alter the compression characteristic of each individual device. The Aging knob makes use of this phenomenon by granting control over the physical material constants of the EL panel and the LDR components inside the T4B cell. Basically, this lets you blend from a stock unit with a brand new opto cell to a very old device after decades of operation. This complex, non-linear behavior modification impacts sound as well as compression characteristics." This obviously rolls off highs. If the peak control is set to 0, the plug in can be used as a saturation plug in with no compression. "R37 Basically a relic from its roots in broadcast, the R37 trimmer controls the response of an emphasis filter inside the sidechain circuit. Turning the screw counter-clockwise attenuates the lower frequencies in the sidechain signal which results in a higher sensitivity of the compressor to HF content. Like on the original, flat is fully clockwise." I’m not seeing a TMT addition, but while I almost always set that to both channel 1, I do use the other stuff like the mono maker and headroom features a lot, but like I said, they are omitted from this current version of the plug in. It’s a pretty rad take on the LA2A that I wouldn’t waste my time with if it weren’t for the additional features. I’m not seeing an oversampling option.

$29. I got 3 new plug ins. Brown chicken, Brown cow.

Not seeing these prices over there. Coupon code?

So, we still “never buying another Waves products again!”, or nah? Asking for a friend.

Uploaded an MP3 of Thriller as a MASTER. Here’s the reply:

so, if I run some of my top 10 mix references through it, it should say “These are perfect. No changes needed.”, right? Cause this seems like a crazy irresponsible device in the hands of A&R and even some of the producers I work for/with.

$9 for me to upgrade to the bundle so... check your accounts and all that...

excited to check this in my immersive setup... once my ears/health clear up....

they just couldn’t give us the back knob, could they....?

I’m digging into them now with the demo off their site. My hope was that this would allow me to take a stereo track, and extract stems (‘layers’ is the term they use) and use them for immersive mix work. While it’s impressive what it can pull out, I don’t think it’s good enough for that. Since, I could likely use it to isolate a track and listen to that to reverse-audio engineer any legacy work that’s being re-released in Atmos or 360RA. When you load a song it, it’s an offline process. I did a 192k file last night, and it took 18 minutes to process (honestly, still faster than me using izotope most of the time). If you are looking to grab an element for sampling purposes, I think it’s probably the best I’ve found. Other than that, I’d roll up my sleeve and turn to RX. Oh- and I’m still confused about which version I’m even using and what the difference is between each of them. These cats really need a comparison chart on their site.

oi vey.

Welp, here’s my take. $38? Cop it. Now, I own a ton of Moog hardware and software. I still have at least a pair of each of their EQs (1/3&parametric). My biggest gripe is that the “drive” knob on the plug in’s suck total crap. It does NOTHING until you crank it past 7 o clock. I contacted PSP about this and they said : It was decided that they shouldn’t distort too much. If you run more level into them, they will distort more. In the hardware, when you turn up the drive (which is technically input level), there is compensation that turns the output down by an equal amount. It’s actually a counter-wired dual pot that does this. This compensation is effective only up to a point and will distort if the input level is loud enough. This is why there is no change up to a point and then change afterward. With more input level this will happen earlier on the DRIVE pot. I feel they got this wrong IMO, and I do “get” how the hardware works. I even held on to a faulty unit that’s drive was more aggressive. Furthermore, I very, very often use the MID BAND on the parametric EQ to EQ low frequencies, and to my ears the mid and low band are exactly the same in the plug in. My hardware could be different, but they’d have to be consistently off. They do feel moogsque and at the price point, gripes aside, I suggest the purchase. I do welcome a Softube or UAD version in the future. But you won’t see those for $38 for a freakin’ bundle like this, so cop it.
