There was an entry for it on their website, but it appears to have been removed. The upgrade price listed at the time was $149.

I would get it again if they pay me $400 actually, even in deadware state.

You have to deal a lot of issues being poured in your system (I have an i9 12th with 120GB of RAM and it was a nightmare of bugs, it also flooded my system with virtual Bone MIDI ports). :x

This was surely a very low budget outsourced piece of crap development, ordered by the guy who demoes this **** on YouTube, who is btw the only one on the support line, and who is a pain and mean a*****.
The virtual Bone ports destroyed all of my other workflows. It really is a piece of garbage deadware. I was also able to get my money back with the help of PB - Orb support was nowhere to be found.

"Hexachords" ...or now "Orb Plugins" -> not worth the time or money.

it is strange that company of orb composer left its own product development and moved to other product it sounds like do not trust us

I’m the silly guy who spent 399$ purchasing Orb Composer Pro and hoping they’ll keep developing it and fix bugs. It’s like a scam to me.

I feel your pain. I dropped a couple hundred on that product, too.

Over the years, I've sunk a lot of cash into lots of software I've barely used or gotten the full value out of. It is disheartening when I think about it.

I spent hundreds on upgrades for Cakewalk Pro Audio/Sonar Platinum software and even purchased the "lifetime update" for $200, about one year before Gibson dropped Cakewalk. The lifetime updates for FL Studio are the real deal, however; it's a shame I almost never use that DAW.

Gear Acquisition Syndrome is real. :borg: :help:
