I wonder if this will ever see an upgrade. At least 1.1 with a better preset manager. 🙏🏻😬

The co-founder passed away a couple years ago. Hasn't seen a update in a while, however, I contacted the company and got this info:

Yes, we are indeed still around and still developing. We have been delayed with our releases lately as we continue to resolve some issues with Mac ARM native mode in some DAWs and some issues with the Max for Live AMXD in Ableton 11 on Windows. We are in touch with the developers to address these issues and have some Beta Builds available. I'm testing a new Windows build myself now.
 
Thanks for your interest and we hope you give our software a try!
 
Best,

There's a free trial. It's a pretty cool piece of software. A lot of overlap with, say, Captain Chords, but it's a totally different approach. I like the chord voicing and rhythm features. 

Anyone using Auto Tune Slice? For me, it is very unstable. It will even crash if you use certain presets. 

1. Sort by Start Date

2. Check often

3. Rinse and repeat

Yeah, that's how I was planning to get it to work. The problem is Roll Control won't open in the current version of Ableton (11.2.6). Appears to be a problem with VST3. Blue Cat's Patchwork VST3 has the same issue; however, they also have a VST2 version which works fine.

The non-instrument version loads fine, but it's useless as you can't send MIDI data to an audio effect in Ableton. Here's what it looks like.

Thanks for testing this out Spice3d!

So it sounds like the rolls part is working okay, but the normal note part isn't working for some reason. I'll need to look into that.

By the way, a couple people are the VI Control Forum mentioned getting it working natively in Ableton. (It might require loading as an instrument rather than an effect.)

Someone explained it this way in a post:

"You need to create 2 MIDI tracks

1. Roll Control Track
- Track Arm

2. Instrument Track
- MIDI From[Roll Control Track - Roll Control Plugin]
- Monitor[In] or Track Arm"

Here's the post: https://vi-control.net/community/threads/roll-control-turn-any-perc-into-rolls.128905/page-4#post-5166447

Doesn't work natively in Ableton. However, I got it to work using Blue Cat's Patchwork which loads the instrument version just fine and the Patchwork/Roll Control Instrument combo works just like any other instrument in Ableton. The one issue I found is at value 0 in Roll Control, the velocity is at max, but as you dial it up above 0, velocity jumps back down before it gradually ramps up. Also, the Initial Hit toggle doesn't do anything when the value is 0.

I sent you an email with a screenshot.

I also got it to work using PluginGuru's Unify which, like Patchwork, can also host VSTs.

I've tested in FL Studio too (not compatible) and some users have mentioned anecdotally getting things to work in Ableton and Digital Performer.

However, it's a one-monkey operation and DAWs are finicky with Midi FX.

So, for now I'm sticking with DAWs I know my way around enough to be able to do support.

It would be nice if there was a trial, but for just ten bucks, I may give Roll Control a spin later today in Ableton. Maybe CW if I can remember how to use it 😲 I'll let ya know.

Is it just not tested in other DAWs? Seems like it should work in others, no? After all, this is a CW forum 😬

Here's a review from Warren's YT channel

Seems BFD was acquired by inMusic Brands a couple years ago. Maybe a v4 is around the corner. Also, I wonder if FXpansion will give Geist more development. Feels like it has been all but abandoned.

the latest update I have is 3.4.4, in may 2022

The u-he synths were my last big ones on my checklist. If I only bought stuff I needed, life would be very boring 🤣

I'm pretty sure that Zebra is the last Gorilla that I don't own.  I have Omnisphere, Falcon, Pigments, Komplete, Total Studio 2, V Collection, Vintage Vault,  HALion, and a lot more.   So the collector in me wants it.  But I don't need it.  I need to learn more about what I already have.  

The sell seems to be: buy full Zebra2 for whatever and then on November 15th, Zebra3 comes out and you get it for 30 euros.    It's got to come out then, because otherwise having a Zebra Vintage product makes no sense. 

So my plan is to wait for Zebra3 to come out and wait for a sale on it.  And if it never happens, that's okay, as I may have smartened up and decided I no longer want it by that time.    Because otherwise I'm just buying it now so I won't miss out on the opportunity to spend an extra 30 euros and "save" money for something I have no time to use.    I'll save more by not buying it at all, because I've already got more stuff than I need, and I just use Omnisphere, Falcon, Pigments and Cube most of the time anyway. 

I'd rather spend my money on a few more Indiginus instruments, to be honest. 

I tend to ignore the plethora of multi-sample morphing Kontakt instruments, but Simeon's demo makes me think I should partake 🤔

Same issue. I think I just click OK instead of Cancel and it just worked. That said, Initially I didn't install the the two reverbs...i got TOO many LOL

Thanks @cclarry , @Grem , @Spice3d and @trager

It worked 👍 (I was on MPS4.1) and updated to 5.1 for $149.

Only issue I have is that I only received one iLok serial for the EA reverb bundle.
It activated Stratus 3D just fine, but says it has already been used when I try to activate Symphony 3D with that serial.
Should iZotope have included another serial? Is anyone else seeing this? I have emailed support.

Appears to have worked for me as well. Ozone 10 Advanced installing now... It will be interesting if I also get "every iZotope flagship upgrade for free for the year"

@Grem @trager
iZotope Music Production Suite 5 Loyalty Offer worked!

I had MPS  2 and gave me the serial anyways
Load them in product portal and now installing, so its good to go
they even gave me a 5%. this must be a glitch or a very good deal

You might be right. I dunno. Very confusing.

They’re both Universal Edition. Look at the smaller print in your screenshots above.

I think “Universal Edition” is just marketing.

The Universal Edition and regular are two different things. The biggest thing you get for the extra $100 with Universal Ed is you get every iZotope flagship upgrade for free for the year.

Thanks, found it. Still leaves me a bit baffled. What is the difference between the regular and the UE? A couple of Brainworx plugins? Because the latest versions of Ozone, RX and Nectar are already included right?

If there's no catch, I'm gonna bite.

I have the 249 option in my account, but i can't find this 149 offer. I have MP4.

Oh and for people who aren't used to this (I'm certainly not), these prices are EXCL tax.
