Ok, but... what the hell does a moldy alien have to do with kick drums?

One day we will look back on the early days of AI the same way we look back on the early VSTs.

I don't remember looking back at early VSTs through the cages our digital overlords imprisoned us in.

With new update, finally it is usable. It always sounded great but UX was bad for a computer software.

Wicked demo tracks, some of them I would like to listen to as full songs!

just downloaded the demo, but couldn't really test it, due to the heat here on the weekend... but why is it so tiny? even at 200% i can barely use it on my 2560 x 1440 screen. drumazon 2 and nepheton 2 are perfectly usable even at 100%.

Well, that’s really strange. I use a resolution of 3440x1440, and 100% scaling works perfectly for me. Or could it be that you’ve changed Windows' internal UI scaling, for example?
At 160%, half of PunchBox gets cut off on my monitor.

We wanted a fitting image for each demo segment - something that harmonized with the style or genre.

The image for the "Organic Electronica" section just felt like a great visual match for the topic, and we personally ended up considering it one of the best choices for the thumbnail.

In our view, simply using a generic DAW background or a standard graphic for all the different demos would have felt "weak" and "impersonal." That’s why every segment features background artwork that complements the sound—though, of course, this is always heavily influenced by the viewer's personal taste.

I doubt that, as I'm on mac :D

I mean 200% is kind of ok, though it's actually still too small to be really comfortable (with some knobs and different texts). the strange thing is, all other d16 plugins are normal size.

Drumazon 2: 100%
Punchbox 2: 100%
Punchbox 2: 200%

Ok that`s add... Just for comparision (same display height - 1440x) Drumazon & PunchBox both at 100% Scale. So... it should be like this (attached screenshot)

Mhm maybe somehow MacOS related, i think that would be good - to send it via the support ticket... maybe you found a little bug :P
