    Hi y'all,

    The other day I was looking for IK Multimedia's Sunset Reverb on my plugin setup drive, and was horrified that I'd deleted it.

    Not being one who takes two seconds to reflect upon the potential reasons why I'd deleted it (didn't find it useful? felt claustrophobic in their 360 degree vocal booth pictures?), I went on sister site to give it another shot, and to my extreme disappointment, found out it was no longer available.

    DMCA takedown? Fine. Companies are allowed to be jerks.

    However, there were tons of other IK plugins, readily available, different versions of the same plugins, instruments, sample libraries...

    Went on that Russian site -same thing.

    So it got me wondering why ONE plugin from a company gets a takedown request while others are up and running?

    Is it Sunset Sound who said "IK, we love you, you're our brothers and sisters, but don't let our brand be soiled on those godless platforms" ?

    So many questions, so little time to answer..

    LOL, I had a small search cause after a small test run when it came out, I lost interest in it and lo and behold, it is part of T-Racks 6.....
    Mystery solved
    Cheers

    I tried it again, on a dry piano sound, claire, and was amazed it how different the different rooms etc sounded. Thanks for reminding!

    Me tooooo but I am used to that at 62. Much to much unused shit you forget about after a while. Like what was the name of that plugin I used once 10 years ago. Most of the time I do remember the look.

    Question still stands though : why do SOME plugins by a company get taken down, while others remain?
