Premium Tube Series from Native Instrument seems are not longer available, they gone! WHY? No one seems to know! I'm pointing this just out because some people might like this series (e.g. Vari Comp, Enhanced EQ), so I advise them not to delete the last version of the 3 plugs (I think it was v1.4.7) or other Direction to grab them now, because there will be no further versions!

It seems the problem it's not only with the word 'premium', also with the word 'tubes'

 

Are they any good tho?

 

Meh.

A bunch of equals on the market nowadays.

 

The review is from 2013:

Native Instruments Premium Tube Series
EQ & Compressor Plug-ins For Mac OS & Windows
www.soundonsound.com/reviews/native-instruments-premium-tube-series

 

i´m finally over with hamstering every plugin i can get into my warm little box, but i remember seeing someone using that EQ so who knows, there are a lot of 2010 era plugs still very usable for mixing, no doubt about that.

they were made with Softube, as well as the "Solid" plugins. They are ok, but your DAW probably has something equal as stock these days.

 

They older NI effects and analog emulation processors are definitely still usable, they just dont stand out in the larger plugin market.

 

Just to reiterate the point of Tracer's post:
If you use them, don't delete your old packages!

True for everything really...
Lots are people are disorganized and still have thousands of downloaded items in their USER/DOWNLOADS folder waiting to be lost with the next OS crash/reinstall. And they wonder why their OS drive is full...
If that is you , INVEST a little time (and money, of course) and figure out some backup plans.

 

For all the free things you will never find again when the developer official website and all links are gone. But otherwise, because something has an R2R release; they will be archived by people as "forever" as can be expected of anything in 2025. Their magic gives the software eternal life, right? You'll be able to find them.

 

You know what? You're right! "Mr. Freud" - I don't lack empathy... it's just that I only use my own cracked stuff (except for products that are way beyond my hobby level), so I figured I'd keep the last ones (my last ones) and recommended them to others here. Which is nonsense, because what you said is 100% true *grin, it's funny that you can still discover curiosities about yourself thanks to others at over 50*

 

Of course I am right. Why would R2R's releases stop working?

I know that, these two Native Instruments patchers are from 2013 and if you do it well they still work today (just tested, patched without problems)

 

there is no reason to run anything from 2013 when there is this from August 2024:
Native Instruments Premium Tube Series.v1.4.7.

 

da haste die kurve aber gerade noch mal gerade gebogen eh eh

if you know you know

What you mean ? No reason cause we have patches from today so we dont need use old? Or you mean those from 2013 are not able to patch stuff that comes very later as 2024 ? Cause if is the second, you wrong my patches from 2013 crack these Tube series (and also if NI in 2 year a absolute new FX released... im sure the 2013 patcher crack it) I made in the past a online-activator for sonic foundry Soundforge... years later Sonic foundry Dies, Magix sells and saved Soundforge... now its geting complex... all changed (server adress etc) i test my generig patch from sonic foundry with those later magix one. BAM full activated. So in one thing you right for ME it absolute doesnt matter if i use a Patch from 2013 or a one from 2025 (that i also have between the new i released, called Offline... cause no jwt, nativeaccess what ever online related is needed) but its all the same, the product is cracked...

 

@clone ...and Just in case you're thinking "SURE, tracer has all the crap from his new NI-IZOTOPE unipatch from here exact at home but as offline versions... dont think so" 1x NI 1x IZOTOPE

 

That says me you understand my Answer wrong. but can also be a Translate Issue... cause that R2R still release is nothing really new for any AudioZ user (Else he mus blind or Braindead). This can only be mentioned diplomatically (not quite so substantiated) when the rumor mill is bubbling that they are all busted or are fed up or because all of them have decided to become lecturers for Gazprom or alternatively to be hired as car lobbyists. Until this happens hehe, I think you can save yourself the statement.everything is fine hums the melody of De la Soul's "me my self and i"
