I have most of their plugins via PA and having them on Linux would be great but I just won't deal with online activation anymore.
I feel the same way about online activation. Any sort of vendor-dependent copy protection, including challenge response is a negative in my book.

Quite interesting new sample manager, hopefully further evolving into the right direction.

Big Max Zero is a versatile limiter with four distinct algorithms and ultra-low latency

No Charge - Free
All the rich kids are playing with their new limiters - i am trying out this one today.
So first we got a free limiter from Big Man Labs, to squash the peaks.

Now we have a one knob "raise the level of everything up without touching the peaks" plugin for $24.

I'm really getting into the demo of his one this morning. 99% buying it. Dev told me that there is another mode coming this week.

I am in the "creating density" mode of my plugin buying journey, so this hit at the perfect time.

The developer will not actively support those, so thats also why offered for free, yet any bug reports are welcome.

Is the free part for sure true? I just installed the bundle and it still needs an activation code. The trial period is 1 month.

This is the announcement we got on here.

Dent 2 (Beta)
Fault (Beta)
Indent 2 (Beta)
Sandman Pro (Beta)
SpecOps (Beta)

I don't see them publicly available anywhere.

Also, on their individual plugin pages I see that plugin alliance is needed for activation (at least currently, for windows and mac). I have never used pa before, I wonder how that plays out for us.
Oh, yeah i HOPE these Updates are coming and Free for User who already bought these
Plugins for Win/Mac.
PA could just switch the Trigger and add Linux OS...What the problem? :roll:
Well maybe UA think twice about PA...i am curious.

Edit: oh, i overread the "own server solution".I think I've already read about it...

Nice find!

For some reason I am drawn to these newer devs / companies that have these fancy looking interfaces:

Sinus Labs, DarkPalace Studios, Fors, CRQL, TiagoLR, FRCTL Audio.

An oldie company that has returned and look sexy:
Bluelab plugins...I think they are paid open source (like Sinus Labs' Reach), but I haven't tried to build them.

Offer cut. I did a search in the thread and blue labs was never mentioned, so I mentioned them.

I think this could have been taken care of in DM's? But hey...
