Ahhh yes, that's it, thank you, I know I had read it, as it is of no concern to me I would have just sped over it and not really taken it in, I have been on Perpetual license since I changed over to Studio One back in 2015 and no thought of changing my license arrangement. 👍

I don't pay Subscription, I'm on a perpetual license, if things go as they have done it's roughly 2 years give or take between major versions, like 5 to 6, 6 to 7 etc, so you are only paying every 2 or so years, give or take, all other updates between that are free. I'm happy with the cost, and for what I get for the money I pay.

I could be wrong, but I think he's referring to the great Biro's snarky shots at people bringing to life old threads.

Now that's pretty cool, they are updating all the standard IR's and all the SuperCabinet Libraries are being updated. Maybe at long last TH-U might actually be useful for something more than a Cab/IR loader, maybe it will actually sound good, I'll believe it when I hear it though.

Those Jensen Cabs are excellent 👍

Just in case you are not aware, these Perpetual licenses with the hybrid thing are what they call 'non upgradable' perpetual licenses, whatever version Studio One is on when you complete your year/12 months subscription, is what your perpetual version will stay at, of course if you keep your subscription rolling your perpetual license will roll along with it. PreSonus/Studio One also has the regular perpetual license available for purchase, which is what I have had since I jumped ship from SONAR Platinum in 2015.

Just out of curiosity I checked out how many others there were like this in my VST3 folder, there were 73, well 72 I guess discounting TONEX. No issues at all.

Just out of curiosity did you try just renaming the top level folder from 'IK-TONEX.vst3' to 'IK-TONEX' ? There was discussion about this somewhere here in the last month or so, I read it but didn't take much attention as I don't use SONAR/CbB/Sonar and the issue doesn't affect me, but the above would have been my first stumbling attempt to solve if it did.

Did you upgrade stony? Does it overwrite the original?

I may have done Snapshot Maker/Player an injustice, I went back and gave it a bit more time, I purchased the Player and the 2 packs, 1 is DI and the other Full Rigs. It has stuff missing like being able to disable the Cabs is my main one, I'm sure there is plenty more, but I just ignore them and take it for what it is for now. I'm going to hit the Devs with some feature requests and see how it goes. There only $5 each, bar the Maker which is $15, which I'm not interested in, same as I'm not for TONEX, so it's not exactly a big risk/spend. I hope they get a steady stream of addon packs, but I fear that might not be the case, time will tell. This might be the only Amp Sim I will actually use since TONEX came out, and I pretty much own everything. I can see this getting some use as is with the 2 addon packs and the core set, I already have some people liking it. TONEX will still be the most used, and certainly in my personal projects etc, but I will follow AA Snapshot along and see where it goes.

Ok, come on, who signed up 9983 times? come on give it up.

Joy, there will be no joy here, only brief moments of insanity that may mimic joy, but we are all stuck in a never ending hell with no hope of escape!

TONEX is where its at, IMO nothings come close. I wasn't expecting much from this, but good to see them have a crack at it, and now I've run the demo my expectations came true. You can mess around tweaking and get something passable, but that will be my first and last outing with Snapshot Player just as I thought it would be unfortunately. Melda, well I'm not a Melda fan to put it mildly, although I did buy MGuitarArchitect, after giving it a look for a couple of days, never opened it again, I doubt they will come near TONEX, just that none of thier guitar stuff has really done anything to date, but if they do well good on them, it will be the second Melda plugin I own. 😉 Always up for something better.

Well, you might be waiting a while, not long ago they added to MGuitarArchitect, in their own words "the third-party Neural Amp Modeller (available as a free amp profiler plug-in from Steven Atkinson)" . So they added a third party solution to their latest and greatest Guitar plugin, which was only recently-ish released, make of that what you will. Then again, who knows?

With Snapshot Maker you get both Maker and Player, so purchasing both wouldn't be needed I believe.

Except it's pure DSP Snapshot Maker Is the new software that will convert your physical guitar rig into a digital version. Our pure DSP automatic modeling technology will recreate you entire signal chain (Tube Screamer, Amp, Cab and, Mic, for example) with an incomparable and realistic quality. The capturing process will take only 30 seconds, after that you can enjoy the digital version of your Rig. After capturing your signal chain the Snapshot Maker will generate a file that can be used with the Snapshot Player to reproduce the capture of your Rig, then you just need to Plug and Play! You can use the Snapshot Player as Amp Simulator in your Daw's guitar track, loading it with your own "Snapshots" or our own. In the image above you can see the simple setup you need to capture your Physical Rig. The Reamp Box is for optimal circumstances, but without it the final result is still as good as with it. Snapshot Player The Snap Shot Player is the software that allows you to load the captures, you can use it as "Amp Sim" insert in your Daw's guitar track. The Stand Alone version can be used to playing around without a Daw. Snapshot Player is loaded with 20 captures of different rigs for Clean, Crunch and High Gain tones. If you want to try out more tones, we have 2 Snapshot packs captured from physical amps: VT-PB C100 Pack, captured from a VHT Pitbull 100 and RockBlast Pack with captured of a EVH5150, Randall Diavlo 45 and a Bugera 1990. https://audioassault.mx/collections/snapshots

I've been going mad trying to find this post where the dude puts it better than I could, but I was looking on the wrong site, I was looking and looking, going off my tree, then the penny dropped It's a little long, and I guess in 'jibba jabba' territory, but seeing as it's not actually me, I'm fine It was all sparked off by the 'cryfest' comment, but the dude is far better than me with words, and covers it mostly. https://gearspace.com/board/showpost.php?p=16968211&postcount=72

It's practically all there, and available at other 3rd party vendors, https://www.jrrshop.com/presonus?dir=desc&order=special_from_date it's as you were for us perpetual License people, it is all good on the home front 👍

and now it appears a new store is in the works, but apparently not ready yet, and the 3rd party bit was a stop gap measure, whatever . . .

It looks like things could be turning, or perhaps were originally meant to be that way but poorly communicated, I'll go with the former. With regards to Studio One addons, they wont be available only to subscribers, they will be available to all but not through the PreSonus shop, for non subscribers they will be made available via 3rd party means. I have withdrawn my knee jerk reaction to dump Studio One, and will stick it out and see how things pan out, there are just to many things I don't want to leave behind, many of which can't be found elsewhere and/or in the way they are implemented in Studio One, and the workflow is just unmatched imo.

You might just find it's a little bit more than that. I own practically everything there is to own that is worth owning, everything I want. How will you be when you go to buy your upgrade to Studio One 7, when the only way to do it is via Subscription? Beware at the fair.
