No that's those that request AAX format.

If there was a Linux version I'd consider it, but honestly I think the price is just way too much.
It's nice that they offer a rent-to-own though.

There is a bug in Logic, as soon as I start transport, all tempo-synced LFOs go crazy and play at warp speed, when I stop transport, all LFOs play as they should.

The Trial mode gives you 100 free credits, which you can use in the store.

If you end up buying Ultra, you get another 100 credits.
The first 100 free credits convert over to paid credits, and the pack authors get paid at that time for anything you 'purchased' during the trial.
So that means that when buying the full version plus the trial "credits" we would get 2000 presets? Cool... :party: :hug:

Not as far as I can tell — 1 preset is 3 credits.

Not as far as I can tell — 1 preset is 3 credits.
Yeah, it was half joking.
A $250 synth shipping with 130 presets.
But you could buy some more via the built in store.
Don't forget to download the demo version first or you miss another whopping 30 presets that you could get.
I am not convinced yet that this synth is so awesome that despite of those facts I really want it.

I preset is 3 but buying a pack has a 20% discount, so 10 presets would be 24 not 30

EDIT - sorry this isn't correct. The pack price is the sum of the price of the presets.

We are adding more factory presets, these sync and download as we add them.

You also have 200 credits, so can get at least another 60-80 store presets from the current packs available.

Actually this bug also affects LFOs which are not tempo-synced, as soon as host clock is running in Logic all LFOs stop functioning, the LFO graphics look like they're are re-triggering at very high speed but they are not running through their respective cycles.

I just bought a preset pack that had 12 presets in it and was charged 36, how do I get refunded the difference?

Sorry - I stand corrected. We had discussed having a pack discount internally, and it was that way for some time during development.

However there is no pack discount at this time.

I think the reason we dropped it was that if you purchased the individual patches, you'd end up paying more than the pack price. Obviously that's the idea... however we want to introduce a system where you can pay to complete the purchase of a pack and it would only charge for the patches you didn't already own. (this is not yet implemented). Packs costing less that then sum of the patches would complicate this a fair bit.
