I did and at that point at least it told me it only knows how to code in C++. I also asked it if it could view images and it said it couldn't. Then I told it it could learn much more if it could see images. So I ask it if it knows what a human looks like and it says no, but it can make a guess from what it's read. At this point it's a glorified website reader. It just regurgitates what it's read on the internet.

Plex 2 - Wolfgang Palms wonderful innovative VST. What a great noisemaker. As with many older VSTs the GUI fries when you first open. In FL, it first comes up with no controls. I found if I minimize the Bridge, then Maximize it again, everything's where it should be. In action:

Great, thanks. I didn't think it was still around. I have a copy of v1, but not 2 (or 2.5 which was just the new skin)

Hey guys, does anyone have two ouroboros' banks for Oatmeal? The original links are dead. Here are the links to the posts:
Link 1
Link 2

[EDIT]
Strangely, it worked from mobile, disregard this post.

Hi Nahkranoth,
Can you share a working download for Link 2 oatmeal bank ?
(I have no idea what mobile means and have bank 1 already)

I've updated the links to;
altair_emeraldspike10.zip
altair_waveripper10.zip
on the original post.
viewtopic.php?p=4974684#p4974684

(all dropbox links changed automatically three or four years ago, but I have no idea where I posted most of the links to correct them. At least until someone lets me know)

Huge thanks for updating the links, bob!
And here's the working link to the second bank, it opens on my phone, but somehow not on my pc. https://www.box.com/s/dbf1114af351a7ee1460
If you have problems opening it too, let me know and I'll upload it somewhere else.

I think I have these on backup CD, but alas no disc drive in the new computer. Thanks 'planned obsolescence'.

yes that's it. except it was the v1 at the time. Synapse Audio was called Sonic Syndicate at the time, and Orion was the only thing that could run VSTis with reasonable-enough latency on a SoundblasterLive, - compared to Cubase, which needed a better soundcard, and serious buffer tweaking (something i still never bothered to master; i was looking for a hardware sim, coming from a hardware-oriented background). this was before EMU brought out their cheap/decent 2in/2out card, forget what it was called. and before ASIO4ALL. Orion could do it with DirectX drivers.
so i just started using Orion, and never really bothered with other DAWs except for a quick look. it gave me decent MIDI sequencing, a pretty fair sampler, and all these instruments. i didn't want to sit in front of long arrangements, and could bang out an idea quickly, save it, and pick it up again later. (not saying any of that left any worthwhile audio behind though ! )
Arturia Storm pretty cool, I can't get version 1.5 to run on XP but version 2 is quite grand. I love the bass synth in it & also the orpheus. Version 2 runs as Standalone, VSTi & ReWire so it's triple threat. The GUIs are nice full sized but 'shrunk' in version 3. You are limited to 4 instruments & 3 FX but you can run multiple instances...

Here's pretty much full demo tunes & a few from version 1.51 (VIDEO)-

BTW just uploaded a demo of Aquestone VSTi as well-

Hi guys! Do you have by chance plugins made by resfilter? Aluminium oxide synth and the really old ones: sedimentor, shitbox 2, ultrafucker and retlifser? I have contacted the man behind all of this, but unfortunately he doesn't have these plugins saved and wanted to get ahold of them too.
