Luftrum is one of the top sound designers. If you're not familiar with his stuff it's well worth checking out.

IKMs update information is a bit wacked on this - missing info. Yes there is an update via the Product Manager -updated my Windows VSTs for ToneX and the standalone app. But getting the pedal's firmware update required plugging in the pedal (no surprise there) AND running the ToneX app (think I had to click on the Librarian tab for firmware notice to show).

Not seeing any updates for the ones I own , Inflator & Transmod. Last update for both of these was over 2 years ago (2021/2019).

There's an additional 10% discount offer if you sign up for their emails when you go to their website.

Very generous of Melda. ???

Get the demo here: https://unitedplugins.com/Mirror/ Try before you buy (advise I should but don't always follow). To my ears (of course YMMV) on the demo the plugin seems a bit glitchy when the next sound arrives before the first has finished playing. It looks like a cool concept that could be very effective if used properly.

Whatever development program / framework Spitfires devs are using to compile their plugin is placing it in a subfolder PluginName.VST3 and the developer is pushing the whole folder into the installer setup instead of just the plugin. I've seen several other developers do the same thing and I've assumed that it's because they don't really use Windows (or else they would know better) and just market to it. Since Spitfire hasn't done this previously perhaps they have a new developer or installer builder on staff? Don't know but it's irritating that they didn't adequately test their app after making changes affecting how the Windows plugin gets installed or upgraded.

Any idea how long this deal is good for?

Is the free expansion worth the $50 savings you lose out on by not going for the previous offer instead? Except for the bundles - looks like the expansions cost $39 or less.

I tried coupon on both the $299 & $499* packages and it failed. Which did you try it on? Does this coupon stack with the $50 (code: H6G46ECEGYHD) one mentioned in the other VSX thread? *would be useless on the $499 package as it includes all future updates/additions.

Yes - they install in separate folders (at least by default). Create a short cut to old version and change name slightly - like 'BitWig 4'. Install new version and create a short cut to it and you'll easily be able to launch either one.

I don't think Melda lists what changes are different going from beta to beta, let alone from beta to official release... I could be wrong, just don't recall seeing such. https://www.meldaproduction.com/downloads 16.07 changes (from 16.06) MGuitarArchitect Added a global tuner, polytuner and global doubler to MGuitarArchitect. MDrumStrip Added Gate reduction indicator to all devices with a gate. MSuperLooper Added new parameter “Immediate loop switch” which makes the switch between loops happen immediately. MSoundFactory MPowerSynth Added piano view to MSoundFactory and MPowerSynth plugins, which allows you to play and view played MIDI notes. MWobbler Added analyzer and visualization for used filters. MDrumStrip Increased release time range for Tom & Tom bus devices. MOscilloscope Added Gain parameter. MTurboFilter Added FeedbackComb module. MTurboDelay Added input gain and dry/wet lock to all devices. Added “Nonlinear gain” feature to parametric & dynamic equalizers. Added “Key (in octave)” mode to MIDI / Note controllers. MDrummer Global FX enable and Follow MIDI is no longer loaded with drumsets. Various small changes and improvements. Fix MDrumStrip MDrumStrip was inducing latency in some devices. Fix AU GUI plugin size issues under macOS with multiple displays (Logic Pro, GarageBand). Fix Plugins could incorrectly store certain paths and text featuring some characters. Fix Mouse cursor behavior under macOS, when changing parameters (i.e dragging knobs). Fix MDrummer MDrummer could crash in Bitwig in some cases. Fix MDrumStrip Reverb in Tom bus device didn’t update all parameters properly when changing reverb algorithm. Fix Setup may have caused errors (able to skip) when merging presets. Fix Setting the default parameter value through the context menu did not update host automation. Fix Hacked a bug in Ableton Live causing text input in the main plugin to ignore backspace and enter keys.

Maybe... here's what I'm seeing You'll get v5.0 and its features - but it still comes up as 8-Track. Maybe they haven't got the full upgrade/conversion ready yet... Edit: that's assuming that everything (all the bells & whistles) is/are not already there in all but the name. I'm not going to bother (at the moment) to dive in and verify if it's missing anything based the link below. https://www.bitwig.com/feature-list/ I don't have the time so I'll leave that to some other OCD forum member.

LOL I was thinking the same thing! I've got pianos I've never even installed.

PSP VintageWarmer2 updated to v.2.10.2 CHANGES: - added AAX Silicon native format, - updated PageTables (Protools) for improved parameters' name displaying, - added downscaling GUI, - added dropdown menu to PSP PresetBar with predefined scaling values, - added copy/paste (cmd+c, cmd+v) functionality for text edited values, - improved shortening preset names in PSP PresetBar, - improved overall stability. BUGFIXES: - editing text values in LogicProX (only ARM version) was causing whole screen to turn pink - fixed, - plugins were sometimes crashing Protools while loading presets from Protools' Preset System - fixed, - fixed hints' look in dark mode (macOS), - plugins were passing only left channel in Reaper if track had more than 2 channels - fixed, - plugins were crashing DaVinci resolve while loading session - fixed (it is actually DaVinci software's problem that session data is invalid, so the fix is rather a kind of hack that we prepared for our users to bring up some solution), - minor bugs fixed. DOWNLOAD: Update is free of charge for the current PSP VintageWarmer2 users. 1) Log-in to your PSP account and go to My plug-ins section 2) Download the installer appropriate for your operating system. You can overwrite the newer version over the old one so after downloading simply start the installer. 3) If needed you can always return to the earlier version.

Tried the Skye Dynamics demo in the Windows version of FL Studio to see how it would handle a problematic vocal track currently using double compression (2 plugins) just to rein it in to where you can ride the fader to make the subtle adjustments. Maybe not the fairest test but it is the kind of situation where I would envision I'd most need to use a plugin like this. First impression - not thrilled. BTW - I totally acknowledge that all of the issues mentioned below may be on me or my system and that YMMV. In Fl Studio (latest Windows release) - once you click on the plugin it steals the keyboard focus and you have to click entirely out of the DAW to get it back. This means if the DAW is full screen you end up either having to set up a loop while you work with it or control the transport with your mouse. Edit: Found quick fix - there an icon on the plugin wrapper to "Allow the plugin to handle keystrokes before the host does" Clicking it 'off' fixed this issue. the silence periods - where it automutes are particularly annoying. I totally understand why it does this but - it seamed to mute every time I was trying to make a sensitive adjustment, then I'd have to use my mouse to reposition the transport and try again, then again, etc. Working out the interactions between the different layers (expansion, compression, limiting) was a bit opaque. I wasn't seeing what I was hearing. The compression ration of the limiting layer in not adjustable nor explained. Doesn't sound bad but it would be nice to know. The manual wasn't of much help. I'll try testing the plugin again later after I watch the walk through video (instead of skimming it) and see how much of my problems with the demo are self inflicted.

I've created a drink to celebrate my plugin deal addiction called American Plugin ***** Ingredients: 1 shot FOMO, 1 shot Buyer's Remorse 1 shot Burbon coat the glass with Angostura bitters (gives it a little zing and a nice red tinge) and serve with a little pink umbrella to remind yourself that mature and mentally sound people probably spend their money on other things. If you're married add 1 shot of Angry Spouse, 3 (and an extra shot of Burbon) if they have any idea how much you actually spend on plugins. Variations - instead of Burbon... British Plugin ***** - use Gin Russian Plugin ***** - use Vodka Mexican Plugin ***** - use Tequila etc.. you get the idea. If you're under 21 there's the Jailbait PS version - use 7up instead of the booze. Be forewarned that this drink is extremely habit forming. Edit: LOL the censoring makes it look nastier than written!

... decided that the post belonged in the Coffee House instead

Don't know if it was extended but sale ends August 1st (per web site) https://www.adsrsounds.com/vendor/moog I played with ClusterFux, then the StagePhaser, then watched (most of) @Zo's video and broke down and bought the rest of the set. This is the cheapest I've seen them go for & they're fun. Possibly someone will have a July 4th sale but que sera sera. I usually procrastinate on buying things till the sale is about to end and have more than once forgotten about something until after the sale ended and been pissed at myself.

Looks interesting. You can download a trial version at https://www.signumaudio.com/skye-dynamics

I saw the offer with the Music Theory class to be able to post the certificate on your Linked In page. Lol - not good thing when your day gig views non IT endeavors as 'distractions'.
