The big advantage of Unify over other similar things is that each layer can use a different core in your cpu. So, for example, an 8 layer sound in Omnisphere might stress your CPU, whereas a similar patch in Unify would use different cores for each layer and potentially reduce the cpu load. There are a whole load of other benefits which I won't repeat here. Just watch some of Skippy's livestreams to get the gist.

Try the demo @Zo, you might be convinced! https://www.pluginguru.com/products/unify-demo/

Yes, I'm beta testing and it's looking good.

That reminds me; I Unified quite a few on that list and some of the original libraries have been updated so the Unified libraries need updating to reflect the changes. e.g. new patches in the latest Dune 3. There are also quite a few other 3rd party libraries that I and others have Unified. I posted quite a few on their forum e.g. Ultra Analog VA-3, Swatches 1.5.2, Super-8, Lounge Lizard EP-4, UVI Synth Anthology 3 and some I have still to post. You can find these and others here https://forums.pluginguru.com/unify-patchbook/ and here https://forums.pluginguru.com/unify-share/

Yup, cracking deal. Wonder if they'll unlock Amp Room Marshall edition at some point?

Also, if you own a previous Wavesynth you can upgrade to Wavesynth Pro for $29 ($10 reduction in cart). This comes with Wavesynth: The Classic library, VHS Cinema and Glow.

Phase Plant Content Banks are also currently half price on the Kilohearts website https://kilohearts.com/banks

Also if you own a previous Wavesynth you can upgrade to Wavesynth Pro for $29 (also save $10). This comes with Wavesynth: The Classic library, VHS Cinema and Glow.

Pretty great prices, thanks Larry! I'm using Amp Room a lot at the moment. Tempted by Model 72 (downloading the demo).

Hey, nice work on the AAS front @Starship Krupa ? I remember working my way through your tutorial and finding/removing all of those pesky 32 bit culprits. The NI installer still complains about plugins being broken because it can't find the 32 bit versions but I got used to living with that. The other thing that "bothers" my OCD are installers which ask where they should put 32 bit VSTs and then afterwards let you choose NOT to install them. I have learned to live with this though as it is so common. EDIT: Found it!

Good summary @abacab I also started with the free nucleus followed by Ignite which I bought from Larry (nice price if I recall) ? I have added a lot since then, all purchased in sales plus a freebie (Year One Collection) which Cherry gave me as compensation after one of their standalone synths deleted all of my VST2 folder contents on installing it ? I had a backup but it still took some effort to get it all back to how it was before, as I had installed/updated many things since the backup. I now keep my Cherry Audio stuff in a sub-folder of my main VST2 folder and backup the VST folder before installing anything

He does have soooo many sales but I like him as a small dev and have bought quite a few things from him. One of his oddly named plugins which I like is HateFishRhyGenerator ( https://www.hornetplugins.com/plugins/hatefish-rhygenerator/ ) to generate Euclidean rhythms.

Thanks TA ? I must find that old post by @Starship Krupa about where NI installs all of it's 32 bit plugins so I can delete them again.

Same here.

8DIO downloader hasn't worked here for a while. It always says "Can't get product URL with specified serial code". So I have been d/loading manually, which usually works ok. I'll see what I get after it has finished downloading... Seems to be 2 RARs - one around 896 Mb and another about half that. UPDATE: After unRARing I get a folder with only Resources and Samples folders, same as Larry and Tracing Arcs.

I also got it on sale around that price. The only issue for me is the tiny UI on my Ultrawide monitor, something which is not an issue with Arturia CZ V. The CZ101 was also my first synth and I was also an Amiga user back then (did you have Dr T's KCS by any chance?).

Ah yes it's 753Mb in SDA. Maybe that's all they give you plus the other free instruments here... https://www.steinberg.net/vst-instruments/halion/se/

With Cubase Pro you only get HALion Sonic SE 3 and the Pro set of sounds. I'm not sure what content that is exactly as I upgraded to HS3 and then Halion 6 a while back which both come with 35+ Gb of sounds. I'm pretty sure that it should be more than 700Mb though.

@Brian Lawler Yes, they certainly make you work for a freebie! I lost count of how many clicks I had to make before it was installed. @Zo I also have around 700Mb in that location but the main 35Gb content is on another SSD which I have set up in Steinberg Library Manager. Most of what's in ProgramData appears to be shortcuts to stuff I have moved to the SSD. If you have anything there that you want to register in SLM the easiest way is to double click on the .vstsound files.

Thanks Larry! Downloading now (and keeping my fingers crossed). Release notes New certified gear models from Mesa/Boogie: Mark IIC+ MarkV California Tweed Triple Crown 1x12 California Tweed 2x12 California Tweed 2x12 Road King 4x12 Road King Black 4x12 Road King Vintage General optimizations and bug fixes.

Thanks Mark. I was logged in but it didn't work. Then I tried logging out and logging back in again and this time it worked. Thanks for the suggestion although I will still hold on for now. Might work for others though.

Weird, I own Mesa 1 but there was no in-cart discount. No doubt some IK gotcha that I didn't think of ?

Thanks Simeon! Sounds pretty nice for a small (180Mb) and free download. Using it in Halion. Now all I need is that Simeon Piano Skills VSTi that I'm hoping you will bring out soon. ?

Cool that they did this so that anyone who missed them last time can have another go ? Also, it made it a bit less stressful for me as I got them the first time around.

I already own this but I noticed in my PB account an update to v2.0.5 which is newer than the one I have installed. No idea what has been updated (there's nothing on the Songwish website either), but might be useful for anyone who hasn't already d/loaded this version.
