@mibby Good catch! The manager looks pretty new - don't think it was there last time I checked. The latest version was released in June, current version is v1.0.23 "You still need to figure out which ones you own because there is no 'My Plugins' option" I thought so too but turns out it can identify** what plugins have been installed and will show if they are up to date or if there are available updates! If you have demo'd but not purchased a plugin and just deleted the VST instead of uninstalling it, you can uninstall it via the Manager so you stop getting nagged about updating a noninstalled plugin. **edit: the manager could only identify 1/2 of what I had previously installed. I had to install the 'missing' plugins with the manager for it to know what was installed or not; but now it looks like it recognizes them all. left clicking on the ellipsis of installed plugin...

Hi E.D. - not picking on you, just giving information. CPU is probably the bottleneck. CPU architecture has improved a lot over the last couple of years and an i7 in itself is no longer an indicator of sufficient performance. E.G. I had a 2012 Alienware i7, 24GB RAM, 2 4TB SDD Samsung EVO drives and finally had to concede that it was outperformed by my kids newer i5 powered laptop. I found this info googling around... In general you will get better performance with a newer i5 vs older i7. Older i7's (like your i7-6700HQ) were 4 cores with 8 threads. Newer i5's are either 6 cores and 6 threads or 6 cores with 12 threads. The i5 9600K achieves better performance than the i7 7700K, and the i5 10600K achieves better performance than an i7 8700K. UserBenchmark: Intel Core i7-6700HQ vs i7-7700K Don't know if upgrading your CPU is an option, but in terms of bang for the buck might be worth checking out.

SoundToys Spring Sale ended June 14th If last year is used as the model the next big sale is probably BF/end of year with one off sales (individual plugins or lite versions) occasionally in between. Also JRR Shop or other 3rd party vendors have one off sales from time to time. Edit: or you can pick up a used Sie-Q on KVR

My upgrade price from 9 Pro to 10 Pro is $79.99 Don't think that this is an intro price (no info if is or not). The question is if I'm not going to immediately use it should I hold off hoping for a sale?

Indeed, for me every update loads slower than the previous release. At some point they won't have to bother updating because the previous release will still be trying to load.

I haven't noticed issues with Cakewalk & Opus (I just fired it up & tested). You're not really giving up any clues as to why you might be having issues. What are your system specs?. (OS, CPU, RAM, hard drive type, etc.).

No idea but per webpage: The CV Inputs appear to be dedicated sidechain connections

Oh Boy! A day at Disney Land can run you $179. So BFD Land is truly a bargain! But it does make it hard to take the time off for work / school if you exit the park a month after entering...

LOL, sounds good. ?

umm.. From SOS review: https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/moog-moogerfooger-plug-ins (need account on SOS to read full article) and that was at the MSRP of $249 Kind of disappointing when people either slam stuff or praise it as mana from heaven without either trying it or at least researching it. I haven't tried Moog's plugins so I can't comment on how good or bad they are. A couple of videos for your consideration Edit: Here's the web page on Moog's site documenting the Moogerfoogers plugins https://www.moogmusic.com/products/moogerfooger-effects-plug-ins There are sound demos for all of them (it's a side scroller - check about 3 screens over).

Do you mean GP5 is around the corner? I have PA's GP3 and GP4 v4.5.8 NM, I'm sure it's just a typo... -
Windows 11 is quickly becoming as sour as Waves Audio was...
TheSteven replied to GTsongwriter's topic in The Coffee House
Please cite some credible sources re Windows going SAAS. Regarding Microsoft fixing issues - Microsoft is constantly fixing issues, but how soon or whether your issue is addressed really depends on the issue and what priority they place on it. If it's a Windows 10 issue that was fixed in Windows 11 the priority may be zero. Security issues or Issues that affect corporate customers - those rank pretty high. A number of people turn off receiving Windows updates - for them issues will never get fixed as they'll never receive the fixes. Also if there is a hardware factor in your issue it may not be entirely a Microsoft issue to fix (it may take either a Windows update, a driver update or both to resolve some issues). Dell for example is constantly pushing updates (seems like weekly updates come out on their higher end models). -
If you're into trance / stutter-gating or sidechaining this plugin is supposed to be one of the better ones. Also multiband capable.

Ok, so who in Europe used their VPN to pay as an American and screwed up PayPal for the US? I'll have you know that we Americans can screw things up on our own quite nicely. We don't need assistance. So next time let us handle it. What? Oh... Hmm, maybe that didn't come off as I intended.

Not sure why any of this this (Gig Performer/PA stuff) is a surprise to anyone who bought into/purchased the PA version and did at least 10 seconds of research into what they were buying. -
