Hey folks...

I just uncovered a bunch of old VSTs on an old hard drive...

They're all warez from about 15+ years ago.

There's loads... I'm not sure what to do with them as I'm fairly well stocked with up-to-date stuff.

That said, If there are any old gems in there I might be interested, but I can't see myself going thru them all just to find out.

Here's a small sample (just one folder!):

Anything look good to anyone??

I can post more later... and wouldn't be averse to uploading them somewhere is anyone's interested.

... just to say, I scanned everything with updated Kaspersky VRT, found 4 infected objects in 4 different rars which have been removed, then re-scanned and all OK - so the list you see (and any other lists I post) are virus-free.

This one intrigues me.

These could be worth saving, though i'm not sure if these come with a separate library folder.

Could be useful for some old orchestral sounds. Most links on warez sites i trust are either dead or non existent.

 

Interesting that the textfile I created for this list, lists itself BEFORE it has created itself!

As for the Edirol orchestral sounds - actually that one caught my eye too!

 

I remember buying and spending a ton of cash on a vsti, I think, from a white noise studio, called ZERO VECTOR.
That thing was amazing, sounded amazing, and had a negative pitch ads envelope, which allowed to create amazing hardcore/harder ancestors HOOVER sounds.
I remember the filters sounded really smooth and creamy.. and quite analog.
But one day, don't know how, I lost the installer and the serial number ! a few years later, and after a few hundreds of copies sold, the company was shut down. TALK ABOUT BUYING 'PERPETUAL', LICENSES, that you will be able to own and use "FOREVER".
The vsti:
- ONLY GOT A V1.1 PATCH
- THE COMPANY NO LONGER EXISTS
-ONLY 32BITS.

Thats why when we buy a full version of a plugin/ instrument, the PERPETUAL LICENSE means, in reality --> 'as long as you don't change your OS, or the company/ servers are on, and your daw doesn't black list it'
I think there was a Warez version released... I think I had tried it, but it didn't have all the presets, and couldn't load other banks... if I remember correctly.

Has anyone owned/used ZERO VECTOR ? That +200 euros vsti, I think it could easily compete with many of the modern, simple vstis !
The company had made the classic errors--> ultra high price, and no extra soundbanks.
Btw, Is it too hard to understand, no matter if your vsti is the best ever, if it only comes with 64 crappy, made in 20seconds presets, and has no extra soundbanks, the instrument is likely to die in just a few months....
Even more crazy : is anyone STILL USING it, today ?

 

Had never heard of Zero Vector... sounds interesting. Proaudiotorrents and vstclub have both had it in the distant past... might be worth asking for a re-upload if you use either of those?

 

As a guitarist I noticed the Alien Connections ReValver and Nomad Factory Rock Amps Legends. Rock Amps Legends was sorta meh but I liked ReValver really well. Haven't tried anything older than ReValver 3, though... And now Peavy has sold it to someone else. Hopefully they do good with it because I liked it quite well. Looks like you have a classic treasure trove, indeed! But, in the digital realm, newer usually is better. Still an awesome find

 

anything for Grinders?

 

i always wondered why there are no RADIUM, ZONE complete discography torrents

those are historically relevant since they are possibly the only way to run this old software 25 years later

 

Vanguard was my shit in high school. Could make the dirtiest sounding chords with that one... I found king dubby delay on a HD but its 32 bit only

 

Am a guitarist too... these were given to me by a drummer I was working with way back - him and his mate (also a drummer) were mad into this stuff back then... I got the files but never really did much with them. Will take a look at Re-Valver, although I do have Guitar Rig 6 so not sure if there's much to top that, but worth a look.

No Grinders (I searched everything) sorry!

Yep Vanguard is in there somewhere (above was only a partial list), no king dubby delay but there are some dub VSTs in there somewhere, (actually I think they were the only ones I used back in the day!)


will have to post a complete list once I've organized the files a bit better, there's a few duplicates and they're badly organized.

Also quite a few installers for old apps, although I'm not sure what relevance they would have now, surely nobody wants Ableton 5, Kontakt 1.5 or Audition 2.0 (still called CoolEdit!!) ?!

 

you've been at it a while..

 

[QUOTE="Audition 2.0 (still called CoolEdit!!) ?![/QUOTE]
If only for that old easter egg "Pong" that was in it! ;)

 

a Grinder VSTi should be able to recreate these sounds.

 

Ah I see! I'm sure there will be a 30GB Kontakt library out any day now!

 

maaan whats a gridder vsti?

 

Grinder as in Monkey Grinder. check the video above

 

Sounds a bit thin by today's standards but probably fun to use back in the day

 

it's this release for PC. you should be able to find it. White Noise Audio Zero Vector VSTi v1.1.WORKiNG-ASSiGN. might be crazy using in 2022 still, but there you go.

 

My problem with the Zerio Vector is: Unfortunately, it no longer imports sound banks. Win10 / 64 bit.

 

some people are just collectors like that. this thing may have been great, but if a good hoover preset is the height of it's capabilities in 2022 I won't lose sleep there is no Mac version
