The only real pain is installing both plugins on each track - if you're looking for the pairing. BTW both Precedence & Breeze are excellent individual apps.

I have this and it works well. Precedence is also good at adding a subtle animation to a track that can keep it from getting buried without it being obviously effected or obnoxious.

Ditto to above. Nuttin new on my side...

Dragonfly is an algorithmic reverb and doesn't use IRs, convolution reverbs do.

Nice find!

I guess that she was not as big a fan of heavy metal....

Anyone have this puppy? Does it do anything different or better than the competition (is Waves, iZotope, Etc)

Ditto. Some vendors place their VST3 in subfolders in C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 I also use subfolders under ...\VST3 to organize my VST3s and reduce clutter. Not at home so I can't test if this a now problem.

iZotope has numerous helper dlls in the same folder that are not actual plugins - the scanner rejects them and moves on.

Is it safe to assume that VST3 plugins NOT in Program Files\Common Files\VST3 will not be scanned? I've seen a couple of plugins install their VST3s in their VST2 folder. It won't bother me either way because I move 'em if I catch that their not installing in the correct locations, but curious.

Agreed but here it is. If you're curious there was an earlier post & discussion on MIDI 2.0 in the Coffee House forum section back when the proposed spec was announced. Many of the same topics/issues debated there along with additional information.

Lol took me a while to find this original thread. Below is part of an email that went out to MIDI Association members on Mon Jan 27th. ********************************** MIDI 2.0 Adopted at Winter NAMM 2020!

While not meant for studio it might be helpful if you're recording via the pickup because of it's antifeedback technology (if that's an issue). I.E. Guitar into pedal into Axe I/O Pigtronix Bob Weir's Real Deal Features: Acoustic guitar preamp pedal and feedback eliminator Designed in collaboration with legendary Grateful Dead guitarist, Bob Weir Achieves maximum volume with zero feedback while maintaining a natural acoustic tone 2 24dB/octave tracking filters split your signal into low and high-frequency bands Crossover knob adjusts the cutoff point of both filters from a generous 300Hz to 3kHz Independent preamp gain for each signal path Accommodates everything from simple passive piezos to complex active systems with internal mics, contact elements, and magnetic pickups Provides up to 60dB of gain on the Microphone channel Switchable 48V phantom power for your condenser mics Includes a polarity reverse function Custom-made optical components and 18VDC power ensure ultra-low noise and plentiful headroom

For live, no USB interface.

If you use an acoustic guitar with some kind of pickup this looks like a no-brainer!

I picked up a Monoprice 'Retro Vision Solid Body Electric Guitar - Blonde' on sale for $105.99 (came to $121.45 with tax & shipping) in 2015. Back then it was a straight tele knockoff with the Monoprice 'M' on the headstock. It came with the intonation set, decent fret job, etc.. Back then Monoprice use to claim they had a guitar luthier on staff to oversee production & setup. I wanted to add a tele to my collection and had a low budget. It turned out to be a decent guitar. No regrets. No idea how the old line compares with the Indio line - except for the headstock and new logo on the gig bag (mine has no logo whatever) and that for the solid Ash version they want over $200 https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=610291 (think mine is Basswood but don't remember for sure).

I would imagine (i.e hope) that Forzo would work well with SpitFire's Albion One. I picked Albion One up a couple of month's ago but haven't had a chance to really use it yet.

Been thinking of Forzo for a while... Might be the time...

I have them but haven't touched them since I picked up the Orange Tree libraries which are outstanding. https://www.orangetreesamples.com/ Indiginus has superb libraries as well https://indiginus.com/ https://indiginus.com/renegade_acoustic.html IMHO the Pettinhouse stuff isn't bad, but I was never really satisfied with it; but as they say YMMV.

Nice freebie... Installation instructions and walk through on all the new presets

I still use it now & then.
