    AIR Music Tech like SONiVOX are regular plugins manufacturers. Their plugins are sometimes attached to Akai products.
    For example with Akai MPK Mini

    As I know (remember) all these Novation plugins are the same as all Focusrite ones. Same designs/same code/same sound. Even all Focusrite plugins are all the same, especially eqs, comps,reverbs, moduleishns...they even all perfectly nulling (phase cancellation). Scarlett bundles, Sapphire, Midnight, Red bundles blah blah all the same

    You'll never see anything from him Kjaerhus again. Dude's in jail in Denmark. Serial pedo and a ring leader of child porn. Apparently, he's so likely to re-offend that they have jailed him indefinitely. Great products, absolutely shit individual.

    Very interesting! Recently I sent message to Novation support about FX Plug-In Suite. I asked how to legally get it and if They will planning to make x64 version. They answered me that the product is discontinued. They don't have any plans for FX Plug-Ins.
    Nobody mentioned anything about Focusrite.

    Really pitty! These plugins are one of the best that I have on PC!

    I hope when he gets out of jail he will make the x64 versions.

    Well yes. "They" bought it from Emagic in order to do this and hold the monopoly on what was one of the best daws at the time.
    Again, they did this so Logic users would be tied to their hardware. Not really that strange when you consider what Logic meant to them.

    And you would buy them off a paedo?
    I was going to say that if he's got any sense, he'll be coding in prison.
    But 'paedo'; so even as a long-termer, maybe he doesn't get a computer. At least no internet I guess!

    Buy? No.
    But if they were on a sister site, I would like to download them.

    You stop to like Bethooven music if he was in prison? For paedo or something else? and you would start to consider his work worthless?

    Good product is a good product. Person who create product is a different story.

    Hmz, I don't think those examples are the same. Don't they tell something about 16/24/32 etc.?

    What FTF does, it shows if a 320 kbp/s mp3 file has been upscaled from a lower bitrate. Or if a WAV file is actually a WAV file and not an upscaled mp3. It's just a helpful tool - same goes for the analyzer - in case you're not completely sure what you hear, although the difference between 128/160/192 and 320 should be noticable by ear in most cases. Which is at the end always the most reliable of course.

    The Camel installers are 64 bit indeed (talking about bits here haha) but like I said, in latest Logic version (10.5.1) they show up without a GUI, which is a shame. Not that the new stock ones are bad, but they need a different approach and it could mess up older projects with Camel tools included.

    I felt the same with PSPAudioware. Wasn't there a time 'everybody' was talking about that so called amazing VintageWarmer2? :cool:
    But when visiting both sites, they still seem to offer most of their tools. Not sure if that says something about compatibility and recent support though.

    Oh, sorry, I thought ypu meant like a bit depth measuring thing when I mentioned "bitter". I think there's a soonnox plugin that does what you were talking about and plugin alliance just released something like that a couple of days ago. Streamsomething something. Very expansive, too.

    PSP has no need to update anything because everything of theirs just works. The same plugins we were using 5-10 years ago are still working even in MacOS Big Sur here. If it aint broke they dont need to fix it.

    People are still crying over Apple buying Emagic? 19 years later?

    I have 2 nomad factory plugins. Nonad is like entry level stuff - once you find better version of what they offer, you just stop usingit. I have bus driver and analog studio rack. Which i haven't used in years. It's not even installed

    But psp is still great. The put out rack like slate. I've seen Michael Brauer use it in his last stream. They are not dead yet. Once i can get vintage warmer on sale I'll definitely get it. FETpressor is pretty dope, too, because it has separated knobs for dry and wet. That's how a dry wet control is supposed to work, not that single mix knob.
