On a Mac the only negative so far for me is slightly laggy UI when selecting different engines

Actually +1, second neg fro me.

But in general finding the new UI superb on my old iMac.

A resizable GUI and improved modulation options were the main reasons behind my upgrade to Geist 2. After a couple of hours of experimentation with the plugin, I am almost overwhelmed by the possibilities it gives me. Well done FXpansion.

I got a pretty bad graphic bug under Logic Pro X 10.2.2 after resizing the UI (to 150%) which makes Geist 2 unable to use (see screenshot).
Even after reinstallation the bug hasn't gone. I cannot click on anything!
How can I "reset" Geist 2?

Open up the standalone the options should be accessible at the top

Does the 2 free packs offer expire? Thinking about just waiting several months until the code is a bit less buggy..

When I open the standalone I get the same weird window as in plugin.
When I open the Preferences from the menu they open within the window with the graphic bug.
Very bad bug!

Delete this file:

/Users/[username]/Library/Preferences/com.FXpansion.Geist.plist

And restart your Mac.

It's known bug. Just make sure when you Rescale in the preference to wait for the "Are you sure you want to keep this scale?" dialog box (and click Yes) before you exit Preference. The dialog takes a couple of seconds to appear and if you exit Preferences before it pops up, that's when this happens. Will be fixed in next update.

Cant even use it - loads a WHITE window in standalone AND VST.

Makes no difference if I was to load 32 or 64 - same thing.

Sigh, also highly irritating that if you install the content to a drive other than 'C' it Geist still defaults to that drive and you get a plugin with no content.

Same thing here. Win 7 pro sp1. Cubase 8.5 and standalone. Crashes on launch / white screen. Authorized in license center. If i remove the plugin in cubase, cubase goes wild and starts repeatedly raising errors.

I'm not in the studio to troubleshoot further at present, but wanted to second this bug.

Huge Geist fan, looking forward to a fix and getting to open it.

Did this get answered?

What was the spitter?

An extra plugin needed to enable recording/sampling - clunky workflow
