On my Windows installation, it's all VST3 but ARP ODYSSEY and LegacyCell (checking in Studio One). It's surprising that it's different from the Mac installation.

For the generic $25 voucher, the "optimal" purchase would be: $19.99 + $24.99 + $30.99 for a total of $75.97 pre-voucher, and $50.97, post-voucher.

Hm. It used to be that one could crossgrade to the Mac version from the Windows version. I don’t see that option anymore. Strange, the Windows version offers an upgrade from any Mac version as an option. I wonder if it’s an error on the Mac side.

For me, all but TRITON Extreme show up as VST3 in Studio One running in native mode. Under Rosetta, all of them are available as VST3.

I have BiaB 2019 which kind of works on M1, but has some display artifacts. Version 2022 is M1 compatible but it doesn’t say it’s M1 native so I assume it’s not (yet). Anyhow, the DAW plug-in is a great feature.

Here’s the discussion for KORG the last time the deal appeared: The best deal is KORG Collection 3 - Upgrade for M1 Le for $149.00. M1 Le is free with KORG hardware (keyboards, controller).

The code worked on Gig Performer 4. The Forever $29 voucher didn't work because (per support) it wasn't a plugin.

My special offer is a crossgrade to FX 3 for $149. I have three freebie FX plugins and Analog Lab 4.

I was wondering why this in addition to the 5150 (5151 Fluff). So, this one has different power tubes (EL34) like Marshalls. The gold faceplate should've clued me in. So, 5150 + EL34 = 5034. I get it now.

That looks right. The colors match up. Thanks.

Installed. 5034 Fluff (Free) | Modern metal chugs. No overdrive needed. Does anyone know or have a guess as to what 5034 Fluff is supposed to model? The number doesn't trigger any immediate associations. It's a high gain amp of some sort. ENGL? Discovered another free amp available here: https://ml-sound-lab.com/products/amped-stevie-t-free Update: The EVH 5150 III seems to match. https://evhgear.com/gear/amplifiers/head/5150iii-50w-6l6-head/2253010010

Thanks for the notice. VST3! Still awaiting M1 Native.

I’m interested in this product space. Looking for a lightweight, reliable program for live use (mainly for hosting amp sims). I want to be able to press a pedal on a MIDI controller and switch on and off effects and scenes/presets (pretty rudimentary). Studio One Professional has a Show Page/performance view. It’s good for setting whole scenes/presets but it wasn’t so obvious how to switch individual plugins on and off by MIDI CC. Looked at Cantibile. I like that it’s focused on being lightweight. Unfortunately, it’s Windows only. Been waiting on a deal on Gig Performer, but now I might as well check this out. I know a number of folks on here use Gig Performer. Any thoughts?

Given that this is a new product, would it only support VST3 (given that Steinberg ended their support for VST2 on Cubase)? I would expect AU support on Mac.

They also have an accompanying iOS app, VST Live Mods, that displays chord, lyrics, and a metronome. Could be useful. Requires the Pro version though.

Look out, Cantabile and Gig Performer.

Thanks for the insight.

PA probably didn't publish until dearVR announced it. I was in the same boat--I had reinstalled my PA plugins a couple of days ago and didn't have the latest version. If you reinstall dearVR PRO now, you should get the latest version.

I have Performer Lite that came with my M4. Any compelling reason for me to use it? I mainly using Studio One Pro.

Thanks. I wish the PA Installation Manager would actually keep track of installed versions to be able to only update the new plugins.

Yay, M1 support. I wonder how long it'll take for Plugin Alliance to publish the new version. I have dearVR music.

I've been playing around with NA ODS and comparing it with Fuchs ODS. Here's what I discovered: Fuchs Overdrive controls (Input, Output) are different from NA (Level, Ratio), not sure if they're actually different or just different names. Using a pink noise generator, disabling the tone stack, disabling the onboard cabinets, and using an external IR, looking at the output with a spectrum meter, I was able to get both amps to match pretty closely. Now, turning on the tone stack, the Deep switch on the Fuchs doesn't seem to do anything, but Deep does a mid boost on NA (the manual says it's low-mid). On the Fuchs, if I click on mid-pull, it seems to do something similar (not exactly the same but close enough). With the tone stack on, there's a 4 or 5 dB hump centered at around 110 Hz on NA (not on Fuchs). With the 110 Hz hump on the NA. I just couldn't make the Fuchs ODS sound the same. There's a peak on the highs at around 2.2 kHz that's always there on both amps. If put NA Rack Cleaner before the signal with Rumbling at 6.7, I can filter out the hump and make the output sound similar, but with quite different settings. Fuchs: Gain: 3.5, High: 2, Mid: 4, Low: 95, Master: 5.5 = NA: Volume: 3.5, Treble: 6, Middle: 7.5, Bass: 10, Master: 3. Power soak and output are 0. For overdrive, Input: 1, Output: 4 and Level: 4, Ratio: 2.5 sound close. So, apparently, the amps are voiced differently, brighter on the Fuchs, and with a 110 Hz hump on the NA and the overdrive breakup happens at different threshholds. Basically have to adjust the tone by ear since the knobs don't translate between the two. Update 1: Apparently the bass hump isn't noticeable when overdrive is engaged. Kind of makes sense if you think of it as a tube screamer but built-in. Update 2: Oh, I get it. I can set the input/level and then adjust the gain/volume. Doing it this way, with gain: 1, input: 5, output: 4 = volume: 3.5, level: 5, ratio: 5. So it seems NA pre-amp has more clean headroom than the Fuchs. Update 3: What is the overdrive really doing? Input/level = how much to boost and then output/ratio = level for pre-amp output?

https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=124663#p124663 Most of the NA stock cabs use V30. https://ampgarage.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=125443#p125443 The built in ones are the cabs from previous amp sims. Which would be the closest match? Given that the cabinet affects the sound significantly, I wonder what 3rd party IR would make a good pairing. Nevertheless, I still like the presets, most of which use V30 speakers.
