Don't see it mentioned but it's free for all since yesterday

Great little gem. Apparently even Reason users have it for free now.

Cool had this free with Studio One 2.5 but could not use it since going x64. Now I can.

I see the Saturation plugin is included within a single download of all Softube plugins.
Is there an option to only install this single plugin?

You can but you still have to run the full installer - after that it asks which ones you want to be 'visible' the host and then installs just the ones you select.

Thank you for the head up !
is it that good ?
(is it worth a 400+ Mo installer, for those who already own several VST saturation plugin ?)

"Windows XP no longer officially supported" hmm...

install... not install ...?

worth mentioning that it doesn't require an iLok either, so it really is free free! You do have the big installer as mentioned above, so not free from that though

The free Xmas thread mentions that you can download the huge file, then use something like 7zip to only extract the Saturation Knob .dll file (ie, not run the huge installer), which is exactly what I did and it works great (in Reaper on my PC)!

Haha what a silly question. I can assure you that i live in my opinion in 3rd world country and i am poor but even i can afford flat rate internet connection. So to say that it isn't worth of 400mb of your space and 10 minutes of work (you can delete after install, plugin itself is using only a 7 mb of your hdd) - just wow...

Like i said here in this thread: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... 4#p5967254

Though times for all of us and especially developers. People will complain or ditch your work about something even if you give it to them for free..

Well for those which don't expect that people are doing absolutely everything for them and have 10 minutes of time - it's a great saturation and grit for your drums. And no if you have some saturation plugins this isn't same at all and can't be just replaced. You should really just try it for yourself.

Just tried and I really like it. The biggest challenge will probably be not to overuse it.

Don't bother. Doesn't work here on XP. It doesn't show up in Live's browser.
