  3. I'm going to buy this but I think I'll wait a bit to see if there is going to be a discount. Here's some info about the development process:

    Edit: This is the correct video:

    This video is about MegaDrive, but it's pretty interesting too:

    $199 as far as I can see. If you have already got some plugins,  it's worth checking the upgrade offer in your account when a sale is on. 

    Thanks. My price is about $185. I can see that that last month it was 33% off but did it apply to the upgrade price, too?

    I'm just wondering if I need to check myself in to rehab. I really feel as if I'm on this forum for hours every day. Pick up phone, check what's happening, put down phone, pick up phone a minute later and repeat ad nauseam. I know also that it's pretty much the same gang here every day, day in day out. I just wanted to know...how are you doing it? Same as me? Page open at work? Same as me but without putting your phone down or leaving your computer screen? I know I'm not alone. I'm just having serious difficulty breaking free.

    Visiting this forum is like gambling, because it's easy to do and it randomly rewards you for it. And sometimes those rewards are big. Add to that those times when you missed out on a really good deal because you didn't visit this forum during that one hour window when some glitch was active, and you have a pretty big incentive to hit that refresh button every chance you get.

    I think you need to ask yourself two questions:

    1. Is there something more important I'm doing less because I'm always here?
    2. Should I be spending this money on something else?

    Where in that 340 page thread did you see that?
    By based do you mean they had access to the freeware versions code?  or that they saw that version & said  'I can build a better one' and went and built their own?

    If you search the topic for "2dat" you'll find some posts about this. Such as:

    Also obxd was originally programmed by 2dat, under GPL, afaik. Most parts still are 2dat.

    Apparently, DiscoDSP forked the original source code and based their version on that.

    It didn't really work for me. When I started the program I got some error messages:

    grafik.thumb.png.3cc55215bd4f904e92157badfcd5f7e4.png

    It would still launch the program and allow me to convert my wav files but the resulting presets didn't sound like the wav files at all.

    I get this same error, and I think it's caused by the libraries that have been packaged with the app (in the _internal folder). 

    Out of curiosity, I tried generating a preset using a cello VI and the result didn't resemble a cello in any way. :)

  9. Does this work for anyone?

  11. I just spent way too much time reading about the MIDI support in VST3 and plugin formats in general, and I stand corrected. It looks like what Steinberg is saying is technically true, but they are simply obfuscating the real issues and MIDI support as a whole is pretty bad/complicated in VST3.

    It's as if they thought MIDI just isn't important. A really strange decision.

    And then there is the issue that VST3 does not support program change MIDI events.  VST2 does.

    I don't think this is true. I did a bit of googling, and there are multiple statements from Steinberg which can be summarized to:

    Quote

    VST3 plugins must follow the VST3 protocol, which promotes all MIDI messages in a well defined and modern format. It is up to the plugin to support whichever MIDI messages it receives from the host. Many plugins don’t support program change in the first place, but nothing is beeing [sic] taken away, and Program Change messages are promoted to all plugins receiving MIDI just like with VST2, albeit in VST3 format.

    So if program changes do not work with a VST3 version of a plugin, that is because the plugin developer didn't follow the VST3 spec.

    And, what's your opinion about them? (I suppose that you will have a better opinion about the first one you purchased)

    I've been listening to some demos of DF2. Not very impressed so far, so I'll probably skip it.

    I think DF1 is good value for $40 but I wouldn't pay more much more for it, though I'm happy to have it in my arsenal. Bonus points for giving the option to disable the post-processing (EQ and compression).

    I like percussion libraries, so I don't mind if the ones I own overlap with each other, but if you already have the basics covered I'm not sure if this will give you anything you already don't have. Here's the list of the instruments in it:

    • Cinematic Impact Collections
    • Concert Bass Drum (Multiple Sticks)
    • Cymbals (Multiple Sizes, Strikes, Swipes & Scrapes)
    • Gong (Hits, Rolls & Rubs)
    • Marching Drums (Multiple Sticks, Solo & Ensembles):

    • Bass
    • Cymbals
    • Snares
    • Tenors

    • Taiko (Multiple Sticks, Solo & Ensembles)
    • Toms (Multiple Sticks, Solo & Ensembles)
    • Timpani (Multiple Sticks)
    • World Percussion:

    • Conguita
    • Darbuka
    • Djembe
    • Doumbek
    • Dununba
    • Kpanlogo
    • Sakra

    Hello,

    if I buy the Mixing Bundle, by how much does the price of the Complete Bundle?

    35% of all plugins included in the Mixing Bundle? Or 35% of the Mixing Bundle full price?

    If I recall correctly, when calculating the price they subtract 70% of what you have actually spent on the plugins in that bundle. So if you buy the Mixing Bundle, the price of the Complete Bundle should be €1049 - (€324 * 0.7) = €822. You would then spend €1146 in total for the Complete Bundle.

    Please someone check my math.
