It's modular, too.

It appears not to be free rather $2.00

This is your idea of an adequate answer when someone trying to help?

I'll amend it.
It appears not to be free rather $2.00 which is considerable more than I can afford at this present time due to the current situation with this covid thing, not to mention the cost of living going up considerable more than I anticipated. Then there is the fact that I don't really like using my card online. Also I have a phobia thing going on with currencies, I only deal in English £'s, then there is the problem with 2 being my unlucky number.

It's completely free man, but look for version 0.41 on github.
The newer versions require you to be a patron. But 0.41 works perfectly. Been using it for a long time.

I am curious - which ones?
AudioThing, Mellowmuse to name a few. I know there are more but cant remember.

Mellowmuse include's a VST2 version of all our plugins.
There's no plans to drop it at the moment.

From their FAQ
"Can I use Unify to load plug-ins my DAW won't support?
YES. Unify works as a bridge, allowing you to load plug-in types which your DAW itself may not support.
You can use Unify to load VST/VST3 plug-ins in Logic Pro X and GarageBand.
Provided your VST/VST3's are built for Mac
You can't load plug-ins built for Windows into a Mac host, or vice versa."

Or you can use Cakewalk (formerly Sonar) as its free and supports both formats.

Yep. This would be the simplest way to go. They have a free demo:

No, it is also VST2.

chk071 · Post by **chk071** » Sun Mar 14, 2021 12:59 pm

Ok. It used to be VST3 when it was released, I believe. Or I simply don't remember correctly.

Fusi · Post by **Fusi** » Sun Mar 14, 2021 2:18 pm

I believe that VST3 is currently more promising in terms of its capabilities. And I use only VST3 whenever possible.

I use patchwork to use vst 2 in a vst 3 host and also to access the side chains of vst 2 plugins in cubase without the dumb quad channel thing. It works well. Hopefully most hosts will maintain support for both or at least setup a built-in bridge. There is lots of free content out there that's vst 2 only that it would be a shame to lose.

Not really sure how to use that, are there any instructions on how to use.
Just copy the files to your vst2 folder.

all of them? there are quite a few, with the same names?
