The Softube bundle is nice, bought it sometime ago. If you get it from Plugin Boutique you can also grab Antares Choir (also for doubling/multiplying vocals): https://www.pluginboutique.com/articles/1954-Claim-your-FREE-copy-of-Drum-Synth-Dawesome-LOVE-Antares-Choir-or-Loopcloud-1-Month-Artist-Plan https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/2211-CHOIR

It is possible to release on Beatport with Tunecore, with an extra fee ($7.99 per month, billed annually - this cost covers all of the releases on the account) : https://support.tunecore.com/hc/en-us/articles/14208503709972-Beatport

They state that they're using Payoneer to store the royalties, which can be withdrawn to a PayPal account, bank account etc.: https://support.tunecore.com/hc/en-us/articles/115006508087-How-do-I-withdraw-my-money- CDBaby is a onetime $9.99 for a release and 9% royalties commission thereafter, with free UPC & ISRC codes: https://cdbaby.com/cd-baby-cost/

I have just started with distribution and publishing a couple of months ago, so I haven't put out much yet, so no real experience on payouts etc., but when I did some research to choose a good distributor, it boiled down to Tunecore or CDBaby, mostly because they are reputable, affordable and both have a Publishing service as well, so one can get everything in one place. I went for Tunecore Distribution and Publishing Administration in the end, as among other things I liked, there is no commission on distribution royalties (but there is a 50% commission on sync royalties and 15% on other royalties, regarding the Publishing Administration). I got most of the info, when I did the research, from Ari's Take: https://aristake.com/digital-distribution-comparison/ https://aristake.com/admin-publishing-comparison/

Yes, I am also on the fence about this one, it seems to be a very interesting effect, sounds very good and unique, (also a couple of $ less - my mistake, I'm seeing the prices in €, it is the same price, $49) also on Plugin Boutique (https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/10105-Supermodal) it seems and you can even shave off a bit more if you have tokens/virtual cash. Already bought Comet and a couple more things (not much) this month, have too much of everything already, so there are not many things that make me go FOMO, but things like these do catch my attention, we'll see!

Yep, but as I have mentioned, sometimes certain plugins may behave differently compared to others, so even though it may seem that everything is ok, as everything else is working fine and this is the only plugin that is misbehaving, does not rule out that it may be a latency or driver compatibility issue with that specific plugin. Also sorry for suggesting Cubase's ASIO driver, didn't realize that CbB stands for Cakewalk by Bandlab (thought it was some version of Cubase)! But Asio4all would be worth a try: https://asio4all.org/2-15/ or KoordASIO: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/koordasio-universal-driver/XP9CSS6NZBDV21 I just read the thread @chris.r posted and it seems that it is happening to others too, so it may be a common issue with CbB and this plugin. One user stated that unchecking the VST3 Migration boxes solved it, another that downgrading to the version 5.4 solved it. Another thing to try, even though it is not really a solution, is to try the plugin with a different DAW (on the same system) - if the problem goes away, then it is most probably some incompatibility between CbB and this plugin.

Hmm, weird indeed. How about the audio interface? Is the driver up to date? What ASIO driver are you using? Maybe Asio4All, KoordASIO or the Cubase Generic Low Latency ASIO driver solves the issue? Another thing that has happened to me, Arturia instruments and plugins would not work at all in Cubase with my interface's ASIO driver (which is outdated and there are no updates available as it is old), but would work with Asio4All and the others. What I found, through trial and error, was that anything below 100ms latency would work ok with my interface's ASIO driver, but equal to or above 100ms - no sound/processing. The crazy thing is that it only affected the Arturia products. Everything else had no such problem with the latency, which made it even weirder and harder to troubleshoot. So maybe trying a different driver or a different latency may solve the problem.

So it was not the latency after all? I just opened a project and put it on a channel, left it playing for the whole length and there were no artifacts etc., it worked normally. I am on Windows 10, using Cubase Pro 12. Did you activate the license on the computer using iLok?

I'd say 1 or 4, you've done the work to collect (which includes, among other things, finding those things and the testing you've done to then form an opinion, plus other member's recommendations) and type the information in the list, I don't think that losing that information is good, restructuring or enhancing what is there would be better (if needed). Maybe, if you feel it should be more compact or more specific or organized, a Top 5 or Top 10 section with your favorites/best recommendations for every category and another Honorable Mentions one with all the rest/alternatives. It may also happen that something that used to be available is later not available anymore or outdated (if not maintained by the creator), so any redundancy could be helpful in those cases. Also, why is this thread not pinned?

Hmm, just took a look and indeed those checkboxes will not stay checked, but it seems that the newsletter is being delivered anyway. There was no recent newsletter though, at least not about this giveaway, the last newsletter I got was on the 19th of October, about a podcast.

Very good work! What? Oh, that's nothing, something just got in my eye Listened and liked on Spotify too!
