You could always grab something like Waves StudioRack for free and setup your own multiband distortion using the VST effects you already have. The UI won't be as pretty, but the scalability and customisability of this approach is quite huge.

Just as an FYI mate, Ohmboyz is definitely 64bit just checked my account on OF website.kritikon wrote: Sun Jan 01, 2023 10:10 pm I still miss Ohmboyz. Actually, Mobilohm as well...still not found as powerful and swirly a phaser as that (though that Virus emu one is good...Razor or something? But doesn't do a fraction of what Mobilohm did). My old pc with them completely died, and even if I could have retrieved them they're all 32bit I thought? Pretty sure Cubase won't touch them with a bargepole nowadays. I'll have to check out Sandman...any other Ohmboyz replacement recommendations? I love Valhalla delay but it doesn't do everything.
Also i've been using a few old 32bit plugins in Cubase 12 recently via J-Bridge and haven't had any problems.
Cheers, Mikey.

Hmmm...I just checked out their site, you're right. All of them are 64 bit so it's tempting. I tried logging in but of course that failed. When I bought them originally I must have been on several emails back...Likely on Xtra which went under, was linked to Yahoo from memory? Must have been 2 PCs and a laptop since then and my original literally died with no access to the HD so I don't have any proof of licenses or anything. Bought 3 of them when they were a tenner each - Hematohm, Mobilohm & Ohmboyz.
Sort of tempted to buy Mobilohm again, as there don't seem to be too many decent fully featured decent phasers on the market still. Ohmboyz...nah, there's a shitload of really good equivalent or better delays nowadays (reminds me I'll have to check out that Reflex ProX). Strangely Hematohm still tempts me the most. There was a sweet spot on that where it was superb for a mass ensemble effect for vocals, like a good pitch shifter. Comparable to the Eventide pitch shifters, which are sadly iLok so I'll never buy them. But at 49 Euro each for old FX...? And wasn't there lots of bad shit from Ohmforce here, unreliable, no contact/support etc? TBH I kinda thought they were defunct now? Dunno...Mobilohm was a bloody good phaser...tempted.
