@stockholm808; you could try contacting the dev and asking him or better still; offer to host them for free elsewhere. But his choice seems to be 4shared to the exclusion of all others.

@oceanictrancer Computer Music don't want you to have them if you don't buy into the magazine. Their policy is that anything bearing the CM logo is only to be distributed by CM. Perhaps one day they plan on releasing a whole stack of them in a CM Golden Oldies Special. But again you'd have to buy in.

Hello All,

I've been looking here and there in the thread with lots of interest, even tried a few downloads with interesting stuff to use.

Now I'm at the point where I think about collecting these old gems.
But this is where I get lost, I mean 739 pages of posts.

Is there a locations where these vsti's are collected or an overview list?
on page one there's an attempt at a list, from the first 45 pages.
But randomly going through the pages, I don't see anything else...

If there is no overview list of the found gems, maybe one could be built with combined forces?

Regards,
noli

There are two known huge lists of free vsts already, mine and bob bobwood's one.

Bob's one is online and you reach it by clicking the dripfeed link in his siggie. This list is a total mess but it's got zillions of links in it so it's probably what you're looking for.

My list is the complete opposite of his, it's not online and has no links whatsoever but it's extremely well organized and sortable by author name, plugins categories and subcategories, development platform, etc... It lists the more than 11.000 free plugins I have on my hard drive and serves me as both a reference and an interface to access plugins. I'll post it sometime later this year if I am not too lazy finishing to finetune it. See screenshot below:

:wink:

Thanks for maqam xoxos, mztk and bob, team work at its finest. :tu:

What's so funny about that? :x

:hihi:

Was a text file I had forgotten about and it listed only about half as many plugs.

TablePro is way cool and if I am not mistaken you were looking for an application like that some time (years) ago when I wasn't aware of the existence of this wonderful (free) program yet (otherwise I would have mentioned it).

Issues 20 and 182 in the CM vault have some of the old CM stuff like Dominator. $5 for a digital issue. I did find it odd the the CM Guitar Suite is labled as freeware in their license.txt, though the Soldano plug is not distributed as such still.

There is now a freeware light version of Tronalithic 2, according to the newsletter I got from them this morning:
