    TBH I do this by manually installing each one where it asks where to install each time. Im not a fan of the silent install. However when installing .. even like the way I do you can set UPDATE ALL instead of one by one

    All this changeable in the PREFERENCES

    So that's what that option does! Thank you! 26 times! Of course, I still wish you could set up default settings like no shortcuts, no AXX, etc., but I'll take it.

    I always look forward to those 28 desktop shortcuts.

    Unselect the Create a desktop shortcut option when it appears. The next time you run that install, it will remember the setting...of course you have to do this 26 times.

    If you already have a Sonible product, you can get the new Smart:Limit for $61 (54 Euro) on the Sonible website. Much cheapere than the  intro price of $89 (89 Euros). If you bought through Pluginboutique, they also have the crossgrade, but it's slightly higher at $65.

    PlugInGuru: Unify $69 / 51% off all libraries (excluding Planet Pluck)

    Unify is stable, and fairly low on PC resources. You can load up as many layers as your PC can take, and route various MIDI controllers to various macro knobs. And with the MIDI patterns in the various patches adding arpeggios, rhythm patterns, etc, you can make a lot happen by pressing a few notes and turning some knobs!

    I've never used it live, but that use case could cover a wide range of workflows, so without knowing how your setup works it might be hard to say if it would work for you. Try the demo for free to assess it for yourself!

    I don't use it live either; however, I've always thought it would be perfect for that. It can easily be a one man band.

    Falcon is a GREAT synth but it has a tragic flaw.   The whole design of it is to layer lots of stuff into one complex patch.  Brilliant.  But it doesn't work.  You want to layer patches but it only uses one core at a time.  So it uses massive system resources and forget it.   Unify is multi-core, so you can load many Falcon patches in it and save a preset there.  It works!  Unify shows what Falcon can be!  

    During BF I load my new libraries and effects into Unify.  You don't have to scan (although that's very fast), you just drag the .dll file in and you're good to go.   No dealing with Cubase.

    But Unify is well worth it just for the stuff that comes with it.  You get a lot of wonderful patches from John Lehmkuhl's career as a sound designer.  So many of my come-with Unify stuff ends up in my templates of favorite things.  Love the ambient guitars.

    You can think of it as a rompler with super powers.

    And they keep making it more powerful with numerous added features.

     

    Reid,

    Unify is really difficult to explain, isn’t it? There really is no VST comparison. It’s funny. The only reason I originally got it was to be able to load a MIDI effect plugin like an arp and an instrument on one track. It’s like buying a Macbook because it does email. LOL

    Unify is so powerful, it’s difficult to explain.  It can load other VSTs, so you can layer multiple instruments together which can be the same or different VSTs. When they “Unify” a VST, it means the factory presets in that VST have a corresponding Unify preset. This allows you to quickly layer multiple instances of that VST within Unify. You still need to own that VST.

    So you can load one preset and that preset loads 5 Omnisphere presets, 2 Serum, 3 DiscoverStations, etc. And then you could add others, swap some, play their own MIDI sequences, have different VST audio effects, etc. Oh yeah, you can load multiple Unify presets inside a Unify preset! 

    It is somewhat like a DAW within a DAW. It can have it’s own MIDI files, VST effects, etc. It can split keyboards for each VST. It has it’s own MIDI routing capabilites. Pretty insane and a steal for all it does.

    Their website must be having issues. Just a bit ago, there was an Upgrade button and cost to upgrade from Nexus 3 to 4 was $99 (reg $249). Now, the button says Buy now, even though I'm logged in.  Value 10 bundle was $349 ($50 off) I assuming it will get fixed.
