Plugin Alliance wants to do them. Seems a bigger task than imagined… I have them on iPad, but I would prefer to incorporate them directly in Bitwig…

I've kept my old Mac Mini only because it has them installed. They are unique plugins and deserve to survive and flourish!

I’ve just setup my old iMac with Mohave so I can run old stuff like Kore 2, MetaSynth, my Virus Ti and Nord G2 Modular but is it possible to authorise them now? I seem to remember it being CR

I don't know, but I guess not. I have not touched that Mac Mini since he sold the company. I'm not risking losing them!

It's been about 2-3 years since the acquisition. Perhaps development on something new is wrapping up soon? Hopefully.

By the way, if you haven't checked out Hermann Seib's emulation of the PPG, you should. UI is clunky and old but the synth itself sounds amazing.

I have Plex 2 and have been meaning to put it up in the old VSTs thread. Buggy as hell, but I love it. One of the pad sounds is amazing. Keep an eye out for it in a day or 2.

Seems I was wrong, it's not CR at al, just the serial is enough. And they actually install and run (under Rosetta) on Ventura

Good to know! I still have the last installers

It doesn't help that Brainworx's studio was flooded in 2021.

I've uploaded Plex 2. Had a runaround with it last night in FL and it sounds amazing.

Absynth is close

Something similar to Wolfgang Palm's Plex synth?
