I looked into buying this and seems development is slow. Also the sub talks about getting access to new plugins but I haven't seen any other plugins.

Is Vital not working for some of you? It works for me, either 1.08 or 1.51. It works well enough for me so just wondering what the issue is? just updates? if so, why not just use it? or maybe we make a list of problems and bugs. so far I havent found any but just because it works for me doesnt mean it works for you.

I have to say I feel a little burned that Matt didn’t give the Plus version users access to version 1.5.1. At the time of its initial release, I didn’t see the need for kicking in an extra $55 for the text to waveform feature and the additional presets, as they had no appeal to me. But I wanted to support his efforts. Hell, if he had asked for $40 or $50, I would have paid it, as it was still well worth it. My attitude is if you kicked in any money, you should have had access to the revision.

Not a whine, just an opinion.

Edited to change the word “Pro” to “Plus“

Do you actually mean the "Plus" version?

Pro has access to 1.5.1. Using it here...

i'm a 'pro' user, the access is right there ("Early access"). previously, you had to click on 'all downloads' first.

vital is now at 1.5.2...

i have a sub, to go Pro, only to support development, or only... that is, well. i noticed too, that 1.5.2 is present.

strangely, i began with Plus, so i have Plus, at the Plus section there is also a Early Acces tab... or i have never seen it, or it belongs to the sub.

The Pro version users do get access to 1.5.1

Whenever I would release a plugin, I would force people to accept that no updates other than bug fixes are to be expected ever. Then each added feature would be a welcome surprise…
I am happy with what I got - I guess its plus. If the final release of a new non beta arrives in two years I remain happy all the time… Those who complain could still simply support him and thus support the development. If its important do it, if not, just wait… You could even support without ever touching the beta if you are in fear of becoming an unpaid hard working beta tester…

I'm curious what the changelog is from 1.5.1 to 1.5.2

[Lbdunequest]

So im quite not sure by the answers, if i would upgrade to Pro version from the Plus would i get the latest version?
