For three months there has been no sign of life from Mikael Adle aka Leap into the Void. The summer sale on his home page is still going, PMs are not answered...
Has he left this business?

Health/life issues?

Don‘t know. I like his soundsets pretty much and have some concerns...

Yes, I'd like to know too.
I was really psyched for his upcoming Falcon soundset.

Hope everything is ok or will work out ok for him.

He must have leaped into the void and disappeared....

It happens sometimes

Interesting experience...
I‘m a big fan of his work and now he has simple vanished, as far as I see. I have big sympathy with small developers but sometimes they leave us alone. For soundpack designers this is not that problematic, but for plugin developers... oh yes.
This is a reminder for me not to rely too heavily on small enterprises.

I hope Mikael is OK - sorry I disagree with the 'message' about 'not relying' on small developers - the fact is this is why they need our support all the more and these are some of the best sound sets out there, well worth investing in.

I was thinking about him just last night. I was watching the Netflix series 'Dark' and thinking, just like 'Vikings', that some of the synth sounds could be his. I then remembered that I had heard nothing from him lately.

Hope all is good Mikael.

Well, we did rely on him with funds for the Falcon library preorder (I did/do at least)

Not sure when he submitted them but he of course did some sound design for Repro-5 factory bank.

At least somebody took off the summersale from his homepage...

Same with Bronto Scorpio. I really hope both are well but if somebody disappear completely from one day to another it's always not a good sign..

Let‘s hope they met an heiress of a multi billion fortune and emigrated to Barbados...

Leap into the Void - what happened?
