Unify 1.0.12 is available NOW PlugInGuru Customer: Log into PlugInGuru.com and the library is waiting for you. Non-PlugInGuru Customer: Email coming soon from ilio.com. Here's a couple of the new features: Now has CPU meters per layer and global. Stability fixes Improved compatibility with other licensing systems New PolyVox and more? Watch video for details!

That kind of depends on your viewpoint and usage. I think I got my monies worth. Solid plugin, responsive developer. There's been a consistent stream of bug fixes and enhancements. Free perpetual updates - no WUP, no version upgrade fees I probably don't use most of the features but nice to know that they're there if opportunity knocks.

from email: ++++++++++++++++++++++ A new update has been released! I have added new Dolby dialog gated measurements so the Netflix preset is now supported. You can also see the dialog indication in the histogram too. Another new addition is integrated relative gate visualization in the histogram. Using that feature you can visualize what parts of the audio are influencing the calculation of the integrated loudness. More on that in future blog posts. The export feature got more versatile, and now you can export only loudness or dynamics graphs, but you can also export graph memory files too. That memory file can be saved and then imported in the future if you need a detail graph inspection. You can now resize the window by its sides which can be useful. (why I haven't added that feature earlier) The standalone app got many new features like always on top, saving a project file and remembering window position. Note that preferences for the standalone app will be reset, so you will need to set up it again. Also, the Windows app and installer might show SmartScreen warning until Microsoft approves it. On the download page, you have an explanation on how to install if you see that warning. As you might know, many big schools, TV and radio stations, corporations, etc. are using Youlean Loudness Meter in their workflow. So, I decided to collect permissions to write on my website who is using it. If you are a part of such a corporation and want to help out, please let me know!

Main fixes in this update, individual plugs such as reverbs may have additional fixes. Fixes Inconsistencies between default state in Processor & GUI Fixes Paramters Issues when disabling the fx in FL 20 Fixes VST3 + FL20, After export sync & link were turned off Fixes AU validation issues Still no MIDI Learn for filters that lost that feature in a previous recent update.

bandwidth = $$ While I'd love to faster access, I'd rather wait a little longer and pay a little less. Though maybe it's time that they shop for another webhosting service.

Once upon a time I used this quite a bit but got lured away by sexier GUIs. Need to revisit this...

15-Mar-2020: Voxengo is happy to release Crunchessor version 2.12, a multi-purpose audio track compressor plugin for professional music production applications, available in AAX, AudioUnit, VST and VST3 plug-in formats, for macOS and Windows computers. Version 2.12 update includes the following changes: Added the preset list sorting function to the preset manager. Redesigned the knob image. Extended the "Color Editor" with color modifiers. Added the "Gray Blue" color scheme. Windows: implemented (switchable) higher-precision user interface update timer, for smoother display. Improved visual quality at different visual interface scales. Added macOS Catalina compatibility. Crunchessor is a track compressor AAX, AudioUnit, and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications. One of its main advantages is the ease of tuning, which at the same time instantly delivers an excellent sonic performance. Another remarkable feature of Crunchessor is its valve-type processing, which is applied in parallel to compression. This makes Crunchessor an ideal choice for musicians and producers who are fond of analog compression sound and its warmness. Beside this, Crunchessor offers you a selection of compression coloration styles--by itself a pretty unique feature for a compressor. By choosing an appropriate coloration style, you can add the character most suitable for the sound material you are working with. As an option, you can disable both coloration and valve warming processing to get a neutral and clean compression sound. Being a multi-purpose compressor, Crunchessor can be used for any kind of sound material: drums, vocals, bass, guitars, synth sounds, etc. Crunchessor can be suitable both for single track and whole mix processing. Crunchessor also accepts external side-chain source signals and allows you to filter key signal sources before they are used for compression. Crunchessor features: Easy compression tuning Valve warmness Coloration styles External side-chaining Key signal filtering Stereo and multi-channel processing Internal channel routing Channel grouping Mid/side processing Up to 8x oversampling 64-bit floating point processing Preset manager Undo/redo history A/B comparisons Contextual hint messages All sample rates support Zero processing latency User interface color schemes Resizable user interface Retina and HighDPI support Crunchessor is available for purchase for US$ 49.95. Demo version of Crunchessor can be downloaded freely at the Voxengo web site: https://www.voxengo.com/product/crunchessor/?eref=ml

+1 No plugin should require you to run your DAW in admin mode, period.

If I hadn't bought the last 3 or so compressors that everyone drooled over on this forum I might really be interested; or if this was $29. But this does look droolworthy.

Wed looks like its: PSP Nexcellence Spring Reverb Plugin https://www.jrrshop.com/psp-nexcellence

Based on your personal experience - what VST2 plugins work better than their VST3 counter parts? I'd like to build a list of these, posting here because the Deals forum seams to get more traffic than the Instrument & Effects. I'll start - off the top of my head: Plugin Alliance Triad - in the CbB Track Bin had several times where when muting the VST3 version it would go into permanent bypass mode until removed and reinserted. Haven't had that issue (yet) with the VST2 version.

Well this is a disappointment. I knew this would happen sooner or later, was hoping for later...

Master Q2 is back on sale for $20 https://www.jrrshop.com/psp-masterq2 at least for the moment. Probably a mistake but if you missed the deal the 1st time and still want it you might want to jump on it. Edit: Now out of stock

Could be that on a mono track, its single channel. Didn't try that (using on a mono track) when I was playing with it.

So... I'm only seeing one version. Possibly I missed it but I'm not seeing any mention in the videos or manual about this... How do you switch the plugin from single to dual mode?

nevermind...

Great price, nice plugin but one glaring fault - no mouse-over tool tips. I shouldn't have refer to the manual every time I want to use a plugin to decipher what their cryptic labels actually mean (ie what a control actually does). This issue means that even if it was free I'm never going to actually use it in a project - so I'm going to pass.

What are the opinions on this?

Comes with MixSaturator2 - don't know how it compares w Vintage Warmed, haven't tried it yet. SP MixSaturator2 simulates the way that analog devices such as tape recorders and valve circuits warm up and "saturate" your audio material. This is achieved by adding harmonics, dedicated filtering, and dynamic processing. PSP MixSaturator2 uses three different algorithms to simulate these devices: A bass frequency processing algorithm, which adds low frequency harmonics and increases the magnitude nonlinearities (more commonly known as the "low frequency bump") typical of analog tape recordings A treble frequency processing algorithm, which simulates tape saturation and high frequency loss at high levels without increasing the level of distortion and aliasing. An overall saturation simulation algorithm, which enables the user to choose between seven distinct non-linearity curves characteristic of valve devices, analog tape machines, and the sound of digital clipping.

On a different topic I had issues with the VST3 version of Triad. On several occasion after repeated muting the plugin (because I was A/B ing things), it would stay bypassed - you could see it reacting to audio but the output was stuck at 100% dry. Haven't yet had that happen with the VST2 version. Just mentioning it to see if anyone else ran into it.

After spending a lot of time comparing them I ended up picking up both Triad and Byome. Yes Triad can play Byome patches (and comes with them) but they don't sound the same often not even close, you might say its like comparing cousins as opposed to twins (close genetics but still so different even a stranger could tell them apart). If you're willing to spend the time tweaking Triad you might get something close but it's never right on the money.

While I'm not exactly thrilled how PlugInGuru is handling this - I am happy about the way that you are! Thanks for dropping in and updating us.

PSP is probably going to march (pun intended) through the list of all the plugins I already have previously purchased...
