is the MK2 still worth having? I already got an S49 MK2 with the fancy screens

There's a big banner over at the Kilohearts website that Phase Plant is on sale for $99 to celebrate the V2 release. https://kilohearts.com/products/phase_plant Checking my downloads though... they're still on 1.8.28. They'll probably update the downloads in a couple of hours.

Only 30%?

Guess this will be the next Komplete Now addition in 1-2 months

Are any resellers offering upgrades from V8?

Maybe they're prepping to roll the Izotope and PA Installer into it. Who knows.

Will they be Grid modules like the three modulation FX we got with 4.2?

Cherry Audio if yiu want to expand your modules, as there are so many user made modules. AAS if you want to keep your money in your wallet after the initial buy😂

Think this would be a contender, and a similar concept with swappable overlays : https://www.thomann.de/de/jou_play_pack_water_edition.htm?gclid=Cj0KCQjwsdiTBhD5ARIsAIpW8CLSjl9D7Rb6LyQw8Vk2QuW4eVsl6v8HMyBmQ07sPqnmyiaLzRRWozgaAgY6EALw_wcB

They also still allow to crossgrade from Notion (full not the presonus sphere one). I don't think they offer that crossgrade at the Steinberg website

Are there any additional preset packs for it?

In depth review from Kristian Kohle

Still no persistent MPE setting unfortunately

yeah you can find the installer here, I think try to keep it a bit hidden: https://www.native-instruments.com/en/specials/native-access-2/ it's only officially launched for Komplete Now subscribers. But I am not, and have no issues with using it.

i think they used to have upgrades from previous versions too. It's only with V12 that they suddenly only allow upgrades from 11 to 12
