Does Mellow 2 still not have a VST3 version? It doesn't seem to say it does, but sometimes the specs aren't completely reliable.

I was mostly certain it would be that plugin and hadn't planned on signing up for that reason!

Welcome back Lars! Hope it was a great holiday and you're all nice and refreshed for all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales...?

That could play a part, but also even when I own all the products in the bundle they still want money! I've also bought a mix of direct and reseller and across the various bundles the prices never make sense.

Sonible use a bunch of AI, but I can certainly say they do not use it for bundle prices... They make no sense at all every time I've looked!

Yep, I'm exactly the same. No need to buy, no need to pay a subscription, perpetual licences only and now it doesn't matter really what they do with the vouchers, I'm all set with PA.

New Nation are known for shutting down their website and everyone losing access to everything they owned and paid for, only for them to open a new website and keep selling the same things.

I jumped the gun and bought it the other day and already thought the same thing! Great price for that. I still don't even mind paying $19.99 for it though.

Nice save!! ?

Haha... you changed it ?

This has already been posted by that Satya character... ?

Haha.. I still get enough frustrations out of some of my plugins so I'm not completely left out there ? I personally don't agree with Steinberg's choice either, but I guess they had to draw a line in the sand somewhere and people just weren't moving fast enough. If they supported it for another 10 years I'd guarantee some of the same developers that haven't already upgraded to VST3 even by now, would still want an extension.. To put that in perspective... VST3 was released in 2008... so developers can hardly say it's snuck up on them! Ableton Live was surprising.. they only started supporting it around 2019 from memory.. All that said, there are some VST2 plugins and instruments that I will definitely miss... yes, I do know I can load them in wrappers and hosts, but I do prefer native

I have heard some cases of that, although I'm not sure I'd say it's many cases. I've personally not had a single one and never had to revert back to VST2 for anything . I wonder if it might be more DAW specific, or certain DAWs. I use Cubase the most and that seems fine with VST3. Some 3rd party plugins are buggy.. but their VST2 versions were too!

Just their homepage or any other page should be enough to get the popup ?

Do you use any ad blockers, popup blockers etc and have you tried different browsers? I got the popup on mobile and desktop OK.

That's a shame Heath, I was actually looking forward to trying this and had wondered what it was like... Will still install it and have a look though. Was there anything in particular you didn't like about it?

Yes, no different sonically, it's just that Cubase users on Mac already can't use VST2 any more with the latest version I believe and Steinberg is dropping support potentially in Cubase 13 for PC which is just to be released, although hopefully it won't be until 14 next year. Many other DAWs will follow for sure. That means for anyone that uses the plugin in projects now, the VST2 version will no longer open if someone upgrades their DAW. That's why I never would've bought this plugin, but as a freebie it's great and I'm likely to pay for the upgrade to the new version when it's released. (After the Audient freebie and now this giveaway, my hunch is its imminent and at Black Friday at the latest)

I never really think of Hornet for their reverbs, but I actually had lots of fun with their recent giveaway one. I have no need for this, but I might still pick it up when it drops down to a few dollars with one of their extra discounted sales ? A lot of plugin developers lately are setting some absurdly high prices, so I love supporting the little guys who provide reasonable and fair prices and don't make my life hard as a paying customer with stupid copy protection applications and hoops to jump through. Hornet wins there easily.

Full version but only VST2... This is likely a giveaway as a teaser for the no doubt very soon to be released new / VST3 version. Great sounding freebie though.

We've already got this one covered Kirean ? https://discuss.cakewalk.com/index.php?/topic/68012-hornet-reverb-like-its-the-80s-again-?️-introducing-hornet-80verb-1699€/

You know it! ?

That's exactly what I had to do as well. I wasn't expecting that, but it was simple enough. Nice to see the start of official VST3 versions from the Integral Pack coming through.
