can you be more specific? which operating system? 64bit or 32bit? i am using macOS VST2/AudioUnits (64-bit) and am finding it very much worth using. the bugs i come across, i report, they get fixed, and then it's in an even better shape.

As of 21th September 2018, Surge stopped being a commerical product and became an open-source project released under the GNU GPL v3 license.

The GitHub repository has moved to http://github.com/surge-synthesizer/surge
and packaged VST2,VST3,AU 64-bit installers for windows+macOS are at http://surge-synthesizer.github.io.

https://github.com/kurasu/surge/releases
Check http://surge-synthesizer.github.io/#downloads for direct links to 64bit installerpackagers. there's a 32-bit windows packager coming in the near future.

:) How has your experience of MPE with macOS Surge been like? Any interesting bugs or does it just work?

How do February 2019 builds work for you nowadays? I'm able to load VST2 in Renoise + Ableton Live Suite 10 on macOS - which DAW etc are you using? p.s. thanks for your feature request (and the writeup of it) in the other thread, much appreciated.

It just works, and is fun... Though I did not yet dive in that deep, I mean start to program sounds...
