Ok thanks, that's great news! :tu:

Sorry, my bad. I used the word "original" when I really meant the new classic skins. I prefer the new classic skins for some of the P&M plugins and the new black and red scheme for others (some of the classic skins can be a bit too colorful for my taste).

Again not a huge deal but it would be nice to pick and choose skins rather than having the whole collection be either one or the other (if it's not too much trouble).
Might be the same as the preference for GUI sizes...

I know there was talk of MFX Magma being in the upgrade plans so I'd be very excited to see that happen. I have a valid legacy key so would be more than happy to help with testing once again. :)
That probably deserves its own thread, but here’s a quick overview of what’s currently on the list:

• BlueVerb
• Bus Driver
• Bus Driver Pro (new version in development)
• Analog Signature Pack (3 plugins)
• Analog Studio Rack (7 plugins + host)
• Drum Tools
• Essential Studio Suite (9 plugins)
• Garbage LSD
• Magma (65 plugins + host)
• Rock Amp Legends

BlueVerb should be next. DSP is done and we’re currently finishing the new GUI.

After that, Bus Driver is likely next, possibly alongside a Bus Driver Pro version that’s already in the works. Then probably the Analog Signature Pack (our Fairchild-style compressors).

For the rest of the catalog the order is still flexible, so I don’t want to lock anything down yet.

One thing worth mentioning: updating these older plugins is a lot more involved than just recompiling them. Many were originally built across different SDK generations, frameworks, licensing systems, and OS architectures. Bringing them forward to a modern framework (while keeping the original DSP behavior intact) requires quite a bit of redevelopment.

The good news is that Blue Tubes v4 and previous major upgrades from BBE Sound, Nomad and Plug & Mix, laid the groundwork, so moving the rest of the lineup forward should be more straightforward from here.

And thanks for offering to help test — that’s always appreciated.

Thanks so much for the list and I agree it deserves a thread of its own. :tu:

I'll do what I can to support your work. Thanks to the generosity of Bernie I own NFR copies of most of the Nomad Factory portfolio but I will purchase new licenses as they are updated. I really do appreciate the work you are doing.

Unfortunately the current global events are leading to a rather uncertain financial future for all of us. :?

If there is any other way I can help please let me now. I feel like I still owe Bernie some work may he rest in peace...

Oh wow, that list of everything! Blueverb! The Essential suite too. Gonna have to buy the last couple of bits I don't own when they're done. Or donate. This is too good.

Ps: the original Pulseteq had a clipper on the amp section and using the eq to drive into the clipper was great for loud bass music, but did get harsh af. Would love to see the clipper/hard ceiling still there now we have over sampling.
