Hello,

which Plugin-Developers have a lifetime update policy for their products without subscriptions. By that I do not mean adding new features for free, but making sure that their plugins work on new systems.

Dunno about policy but voxengo, fabfilter and u-he have a good track record.
(I have also plugs both by wavesfactory and melda)

I think most do that if the product is still being sold, but few give guarantees that every product they have ever made will be updated in a timely manner for any new OS (it may not even be technically possible) and of course lifetime updates as 'a policy' wont guarantee you get any updates at all (let alone lifetime) if the company stops trading or is sold.

The lifetime term is usually related to the product, at least for us.

Makes sense. Much easier to discontinue a product than to kill all customers.

That's the policy for Swanky Amp Pro, and the plan for future plugin development over at Resonant DSP.

So what you're saying is, when Apple says 'Jump' you want the obedient dev who says 'High how?'
