Is there an SE version that you can get to use your already owned plugins with?

Yeah, I figured about the knobs. But if someone is going to do it, it should be them.

I really hope they translated their Tonex tech to T-Racks. It would be so cool to have low CPU, low latency AI/ML captures of classic hardware. Acústica Audio is great, but tracking with them is a no no.

Yeah, I mean manually copying the draw bar and control settings from v1 to v2.

Or you could just copy the 13 presets onto v2 manually.

Yeah, the drums are top notch!

Sampled synths are not everyone's cup of tea, but these are remarkable.

More feature rich than their already free Lite edition. Courtesy of BEAT mag (no need to buy the mag): https://zamplersounds.sellfy.store/p/apsonic-labs-speedrum-be/

Different tools. This one reduces what it deems to be "inharmonic" content, not related to the fundamental. Reso identifies based on resonance, not frequency.

PSP has some nice discounts! Saturator for $29. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/manufacturer/PSP_Audioware

Got Elysia Karacter two minutes before the sale ended. Didn't even realized it until I added it to the cart! They should have a timer on the top of all pages. I was about to go to bed thinking "I'll buy it in the morning" lol

Also available for Bitwig users (in the user area). I didn't receive any email about it, just logged in and found them there.

50gb of free samples is crazy lol. Luckily you can download a la carte.

MRotary for $9 too

In tonenet: find guys who have lots of captures of different amps. They're usually studio owners or engineers who know how to mic an amp. People with 4 captures, 3 of which are a behringer pedal, are not the best bet. Amp only (no cab) and pedal captures also sound great 90% of the time because they're easier to make, so if you find a few cabs that you like or use your own ir , you'll be getting a better sound than most amp sims out there.

Tonex SE is all you need. The user captures (tone.net) are really good (some of them) and you can buy third party stuff. I got it for $35 or so using jam points,

I second the EVO 4. The guitar input has a JFET that adds a tiny bit of saturation. I'm not into modular, but people say Softube Modular is king in terms of raw sound quality. Regarding effects, I've never worked with hardware, but I've been listening to a lot of plugin/hardware shootouts and blind tests and the hardware tends to win all the time. Except for Acustica Audio plugins, which gets extremely close. Some other developers (UAD, Pulsar) also get close. This video might be of help:

Just want to mention that someone decided to do something similar to the Pro Channel in REAPER. He's still adding plugins, but there's already a nice collection of some very cool plugins. embeDDed: jsfx collection - Cockos Incorporated Forums

And I think that's the full extent of their grace, I think. I'd be very surprised if they sold licenses. Hope I'm wrong because I want one.

I wouldn't keep my hopes up about a non-subscription option. Maybe all they're looking to accomplish is to add value to an already successful subscription service (no idea if it is) and they don't give a rat's ***** about the overcrowded Western market (their Asian userbase is massive). Cakewalk is just one of the many assets this company has. I would guess that catering to long time loyal users means absolutely nothing for them.

Is it really going to transcend scoring as we know it? This company's marketing hyperbole goes to 11 every time.

Sorry, I searched but didn't see it.

You can sort by "recommended" in the plugin (the default sorting).
