Vital - Released

[martinjuenke]

So what is this thread about; a 'free' abandoned synth.

I love abandoned stuff.
It feels so decadent.
It reminds me of the limits for all human desires.

[Gabriel Garcia]

I agree! It just sounds more vintage now that is abandoned

Yeah, Geheimtip!

Lost places, abandoned synths, eroded systems: all you need for dystopian soundtracks!

[GaryG]

let me repeat that again because you seem to not understand how a synth works

I've written software synths and built hardware ones so please don't patronize me, just makes you look a fool.

This is a difference of opinion obviously. If someone offers a 'thing' with an integrated function limited it's not the same as the version with it not limited. Can't get clearer than that. I was simply pointing that out, I have no other argument with vital, use the free version a lot and don't give a hoot if it's supported, abandonware etc etc . If you want to win Internet points then go ahead and argue the toss.

Not sure this is an important thing really, but what is the timeline that triggers the panic?
Was just noticing Plasmonic trial is on the same version for a couple of years.
Do members here feel it's abandoned too?

Has Plasmonic a subscription active that should provide updates and new material periodically?

The developer released a tremendously powerful and interesting multi-effects thing not so long ago so definitely not a feeling of abandonment. Not that I wouldn't mind new and shiny stuff but I know he's active.

Helix (beautiful sounding synth) still on sale but not vst3 yet... or never?
Vital vst3...

Are you perhaps confusing Helix (by Jonas Norberg, 2008) with Helm (by Matt Tytel)? They are not connected in any way IIRC.

hmm, That sounds a little "Wusiky" though. Done with one thing and moving to the next. Although I have far more confidence in Brian than I could ever have again in Wil'K.
And this isn't about the product or developer, but about the users premeditated resentment (expectation) towards a product that seems to not have any fatal flaws that prevent it from still being viable.
I got bored with Vital early on, but wouldn't deny that it's probably got a place for others. Plasmonic does interest me though and although I haven't bought it, I do consider and follow news about it.

Just saying there's a slippery slope here that many aren't considering.

No.
Vital and Helix share the same aspect: They still for sale and no signs of moving forward.
Vital, being a vst3, will have a better milage so far.

Only if it matters of course
