Sadly, Ocean Swift have gone out of business, but were kind enough to make all of their plugins available for free download

Some of them look quite interesting, although they do seem to be Windows only.

They also have soundpacks and wavetable packs which i definitely going to download

Shruti box for Kontakt looks good

Thanks. I'd never heard of them before. Any recommendations? The Wavetable tool looks interesting.

Honestly, never heard of them too until today where i saw the news on some blog. Also eyeing the wavetable tool, been looking for a decent one for weeks and i just don't click with that black-green DOS-looking tool everyone is currently recommending (forgot the name).

Read on Facebook that one of the Ocean Swift guys joined NI and one decided to start his own business, so they did not have enough time to maintain the site and hence everything is now free. Quite generous of them.

I hope that guy has joined NI to work on Absynth 6. Please NI, we need a modern makeover for it just like you did for Guitar Rig Pro. I have a feeling that Absynth 6 could be the spotlight of the next Komplete.

I think that's probably Audio Term. I assume it's complicated because it's based on old technology.

There is a simple one, it was created for Synthesis Technologies hardware wavetable modules, it's free and it produces .wavs you can use anywhere.

For anyone on the fence, the Southern Soul EZX sounds absolutely fantastic. The cymbals and snares are tasty! This is their second best deal of this year, after the Seventies Rock EZX deal. I had not even demoed the SS EZX before, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Too good a deal ($39) to pass, especially considering Toontrack deals are otherwise generally boring. Hope they continue these weekend deals and include more such gems.

Fluid Pitch by Pitch Innovations https://www.pitchinnovations.com/home/

Converts MIDI pitch-wheel cc data to MPE. I believe it is $39 at PB, but that seems a rather high price for the functionality (but it IS a good idea).

I bought it, so far not impressed by it. Bugs! Expensive! While they are doing pitch band they could have also added key scale lock and key to chord.
Worst is the licensing! Only two activations allowed. There is no option in online account or in app to deactivate and move the license to another computer! Typical example of extreme paranoia! So worried about piracy that you make the life hell of a paying customer!

I thought lock to scale was exactly what it did

No, just locking pitch bend to the scale!

It works for me, but the site seems very slow. Going out of business, I guess it makes sense that they don't invest a lot in bandwidth while their server is being raided now that everything is free

EDIT: Veeery slow. So I guess I'll try again next week or so...
