The "All the web patches" link has them in the folder "Dexed v1_0 (Black Winny)/DXCARTFO". But you can also download just the factory patches from https://yamahablackboxes.com/collection/yamaha-dx7-synthesizer/patches/

Can't you try it out already? I believe you can run any Melda product in demo mode for 14 days.

I read that it crashes a lot. But maybe he's fixed that by now. Is it any good? Has anyone tried it? How does it compare to bx_masterdesk?

Are my comments a joke to you? ? I already mentioned that FM8 can import sysex files and I gave a direct link to a huge collection of such files. The collection also contains the original DX7 banks, I believe.

https://nnaud.io/plugins/game-boi-free-retro-game-inspired-plugin/ According to the website: Doesn't sound like it to me at all, but still useful. A free rompler, can't hurt, except your hard drive space maybe. It's funny, because it's been around for a few days but I couldn't install it. Today I received a newsletter mail, telling me that they've fixed the installer issue. It didn't install the files to the correct location. I find it funny because New Nation has a long tradition of fails and it just won't end. However, it's free, so I won't complain.

True. I still managed to get it though by copy-pasting the attributes from the button to the attributes of an "Add to cart" button on a different page, using right-click > Inspect.

See the positive side of it: They help you fight GAS. ?

Only works when you have an IP address from the US. Otherwise you need to use VPN and set your location to the US. I have no idea why they do that.

@Brian D'Oliveira I have a problem with installing Rasa. Even though it appears in my list of purchased products (I think it was a freebie), when I try to install it I get the message "You don't have a valid license for this product": Do you have an idea how to fix this or what is causing this behaviour? Update: Never mind. I went to your website and bought it for 0$ once more, after that I was able to install it.

Another good source for DX presets in the sysex format, which can be imported into FM8, is this one http://bobbyblues.recup.ch/yamaha_dx7/dx7_patches.html The "ALL THE WEB PATCHES" download has more than 12,000 files and I think each file is a soundbank with 32 presets.

@TheSteven I've tried a few of the factory presets and for me the majority of them doesn't seem very useful. The ability to import DX patches in the SYX format isn't that much of a plus because the free Dexed can do that too and they almost sound identical (Dexed is a bit louder but after adjusting the volume I could hardly hear a difference). FM8 has a better preset browser than Dexed though.

I can't find any FM8 libraries on NI

I don't think so. They already had it for that same price a year ago at Plugin Boutique.

I wonder if I'm alone with this but I just hate using ugly or old looking plugins, no matter how good they sound. I know it's irrational because the beauty of the user interface has no effect on the sound but using plugins that look pretty just feels so much more satisfying when working with them.

Hm, awkward. Not only is the VST Alarm website very slow and unavailable from time to time but I also didn't receive a confirmation email or download link after the purchase. I hope I'll receive it soon. Update: all good, I received it a few minutes later.

Plughub currently offers all three Tetrad plugins as bundle for only $9.95: https://plughub.sale/sales/tetrad-series-plugin-bundle/ They're romplers from New Nation. I already have them, I think they sound alright. The website has some demos.

I don't know them but they look super-shady to me. Like when you look at their preset page: https://www.composerloops.com/catalog/music-presets-35 102,000 Serum presets or 165,000 Massive presets for $12?! Seriously? ?

Oh yes, Venus Theory has such a great voice. It's scary what's possible with AI voices. Criminals use it sometimes to make fake calls, pretending to be someone's child in need of money that they should transfer. I've seen some fun examples on TikTok where they've made Frank Sinatra sing modern songs or rap lyrics in his style. It sounds so real. You can find them on the TikTok account "@breakstuffpod".

Cool. Thanks ?

I've never seen Kirchhoff EQ anywhere near $50 yet, but did manage to get it for 38€ by buying a "Forever 29" voucher on Knobcloud. Currently two such vouchers are being sold there again, for €40 each.

Everything is a waste of money if you don't use it. ? I have Wavesynth too, I think it doesn't sound too bad. Got Lofi Keys, Wavesynth Glow and Minipol for free. Not a fan of Minipol, but Lofi Keys sounds quite nice.

It's crazy with New Nation. Their relaunch didn't go as expected at all. They anounced their new website but on the expected launch day it wasn't available. And it took days or even weeks until the new website was live. The loss of accounts probably wasn't planned but a result of incompetence on the side of the web developers. I'm not too mad about it because non of the software that I have from them requires me to activate it through my account. I can still use it all. And of course no trouble with all the MIDI and samples that I have from them. I got so much stuff for free from New Nation because some of the sample packs that they sold from Brandon Chapa, Studio Trap and others only cost $10 and if you wrote a review you got a $10 voucher without minimum spend, so that way you could get a lot of free stuff. Then they once had a $420 voucher! For free. To celebrate 420 day. I tell you, they're crazy. With all the stuff they gave away for free it's no wonder that Studio Trap et al left their shop. Then the bundles come with a $25 voucher, the bundles themselves cost around that much. Usually you can't use vouchers on bundles but on certain days you could. So again, get a bundle for free which has another $25 voucher, use that to get another bundle for free and receive another $25 voucher and so on. Also, most of their coupon codes were easy to guess once you knew a few of them. I almost had all of their stuff and only paid 69€ for 104 MIDI/sample packs and 26 plugins (mostly romplers). I start to wonder if it's the end for them. I noticed that all the MIDI packs that came out after the relaunch don't have the quality that the old ones had. And they haven't released anything new for a while now.

Do they ever have sales on the upgrades for their Virtual Guitars? I have Iron 1 but am hesitant to pay nearly 50€ for an upgrade to the new version. I don't know, is it really that much better?
