I believe I have it in my folder already. Surprisingly (for me) it works too. Count me in

[kraftraum]

Yep,
it works also in FL Studio with a little bug: the waves will show like atari 2600 in the second, third ... instance

And a little bit experimental: no manual ... so anybody got an idea of the first graphic env

... time to give Reaper a try?

Bzur,

Happens to me in FL. I can generally get a single instance going, but any more than that causes FL to go nuts and crash.

[V'ger]

FL users have a look at these:

@kraftraum: What you mean "show like atari 2600"?

@Bzur, that's a major issue, what's your system? Does it work in other hosts? But to be honest too many plugin issues was part of the reason I finally gave up Cubase which is ironic as one of the reasons I decided to go for that DAW after early Cakewalk days was that since Steinberb IS VST, it would be the most solid..

[V'ger]

Everybody also notice the new rules. (marked in yellow)

Yes interesting without manual, here's what the developer said:

Find Prophet VS user manual from the web. Augur does not and will never have a PDF manual. You get what you pay for.

Here's the Prophet VS manual:

V'ger,
It is pretty random when it wants to work and when it does not want to work. Even with a single instance. I suppose I could try Reaper but I do not like sequencing in it at all. However, I do like it for mixing purposes.

I'll keep at trying to get it to work, but I don't think it is gonna happen.

Does Augur work well in REAPER on your system?

Some good banks for Augur:

[APZX]

Yeah it works in Reaper. I guess I'll have to use it for sequencing this time around. Such a shame because while Reaper is a great DAW, I hate it for this kind of stuff.

[V'ger]

Try to set the mouse modifiers to your preference, it might help the transition. (single click-drag to enter notes, single-click to delete etc) There's also an action called 'Zoom to content' in MIDI editor which I find very useful, might want to set up a shortcut for that. showing the basics in MIDI.

If you like the thought of recording ecstacy and
professional editing routines, then go for it

Thanks Vger, for linking the manual page!

Does Augur work well in REAPER on your system?

I could faithfully reproduce Augur crashing on Ubuntu Studio. As usual I am using Reaper via Wine (a kind of windows emulation) and it normally works with almost all plugins.

If I open the wave menu and klick on some other waveform it only swallows my choice the first time. The second time it crashes Reaper instantly. If I then don't kill and restart the sytem, a new instance of Reaper gets crashed even the first time I touch that menu - reproducably as I said.

Rena is on holidays so I don't know how Reaper works on Win7. I fear that I might be forced to cut out this month.
