Yes, they had a "tone match" feature but in my experience it wasn't even remotely close to both the sound and feel of what the amp sounded like. It is more of an EQ curve plus using the gain structure of a built in tone model. It might work ok with a Plexi which everyone has, but try matching a unique boutique amp and it fell apart very quickly. I also think everyone has different experiences and expectations of this stuff. How an amp responds to your playing is very important to me and is not accurately captured by that previous technology.

I'm not seeing a trial. Can't imagine dropping $100 on software that doesn't have a trial where the entire crux of the value is does it do what it says it does as well as you expect it to. Tone based off a recording is interesting, but I'm betting it doesn't live up to my expectations.

Yes, and I frequently won't go after something just becuase it is free. That said, I think most of us have a PB account already so there isn't the signup problem. The tool itself seems like it could be useful (depending on the individual) and yes, I had the same "why is it downloading the MAC version" automatically nonsense that took me a few minutes to find it in my "free" section of the account. *Edit I'm not sure this thing provides much value

Well, I know in previous group buys some hardware (with a software unlock) was eligible. Such as the cheaper IRIG stuff. Now if it was only specific to that group buy - that is one thing, but this type of thing has worked before and for less expensive items.

Hmmm...I registered a ToneX pedal today (to add to my collection of them). Since the pedal unlocks ToneX SE (though I already had multiple copies of SE and MAX), I don't understand why I wasn't added to the Group Buy

Worked on my existing account but also unsure if it was actually used before or if I'd just signed up previously.

You need an ilok license, which if you didn't get one while they gave it away you would need to buy a seat for it. The installer is available on the website.

OP does have the qualifier of "this week" in the post. I was also going to post something along the lines of then you need to watch more movies if GF3 is the "worst." It is a complete masterpiece compared to the majority of films that have been made (and that doesn't mean it is good)

No fancy UI but Airwindows also has some console emulation options for free. https://www.airwindows.com/category/consoles/ FrontDAW by United Plugins was given away for free at launch and has seen some updates since (basically a saturation plugin with different flavors) Sonimus had a stripped down version of Statson with CM music magazine for over a decade. Quite a few options on the market - and hard to beat some of the PA ones if you get them at a steep discount, especially the 9099 Neve style or 9000J SSL one.

I had the same problem and did a Google search on it. They seem to say there is a known issue they are working to fix and to just run trial mode. Instead I uninstalled it. Not seeing any material differences from v11 out of the gate.

They are on sale now, if you have JamPoints I do not expect you would be able to do better on BF at any other retailer than what you could get direct now. YMMV but I've bought 2 big ones and 2 small ones since they came out and have seen the price over history to base this assumption The base price on both units went up.

Haha, yeah that was the core of the question. I remember I used glitch on the main theme of one single song I did. I've switched computers since then so that project might have issues being replicated as that isn't like and eq or compressor.

Pretty sure some of them are soundspot under the hood with some facial surgery. Which of course impacts ones perception on the price. I wonder if I can even install the old soundspot stuff if I wanted to.

Yeah, but now with a 3 computer limit - there are quite a few options that do the same sort of thing. United Plugins gave away Wide Fire and it is pretty good (no computer limits for personally owned machines) Melda has options Boz Mongoose Izotope Imager is free (depending on which feature you need at a given time might work) JST Sidewider was a free with CM offering Even other plugins alliance plugins have built in stereo expanders (with a bass cross over) Mono maker and stereo width knobs. Lots of their plugins have this built in. Also agree that spread is pretty good, just noting there are many options, many of which people might have already.

And yet...WAVES is on V15, with most of the plugins being exactly the same as v5. 100% agree. Given the cost of these plugins, updates should be included for quite a while as material changes are few and far between.

One of my favorite devs for these reasons. That said, not sure I'd personally get $30 worth out of this kind of plugin but because of the other plugins I have from them that I do love, will consider the demo to give them a fair shot at convincing me. Honestly I wish they would put that Echoes plugin in a physical pedal. (Don't need all the controls just the core ones). I don't need any more pedals but that would seriously tempt me.

Anyone with experience know what his periodic checks are set at? And does the plugin disable if it isn't connected? **Internet Access**: Internet access is mandatory for plugin activation and periodic checks.

I would have said the same 6 years ago, but the market has shifted. Most of us realize that the majority of effect based plugins do not give us more than a few dollars worth of actual value in real life. There are exceptions of course but most TD stuff is the I already have alternatives in the collection types and thus an expensive purchase for more of the same is off the table now.

They also had to release an update right after an update release on the same day after people had been beta testing this for a bit already. For perspective, between the announcement release, the 2nd release and then the actual fixed release. I downloaded over 18 GIGs from them to get my computers operational with the new update. Imagine someone doing this on a poor connection or even a metered one. Not to mention a couple hours of my time doing the installs and waiting on the fairly slow downloads due to the limited bandwidth servers (not the connection getting to said servers). I'm not complaining because the product itself is so good, but I understand the critique.

Interesting, I didn't realize this one is another colab thing. I'd also like to get Deedger but they priced themselves out of my range there.

Looks cool but also wonder what made them come in at a substantially higher price point for this release than other things they have done in the past. (other than the super esoteric and odd lathe cutting simulator they released)

have you used it? It seems so poorly implemented that it is worthless. Ether that or my computer is broken.

Always appreciate an included update but also surprised they didn't allow for more dramatic resizing. Certainly not terrible but when we see 1 update every 5 years I'd like to see attention paid to current requests.
