I have to say I feel a little burned that Matt didn’t give the Pro version users access to version 1.5.1.

Do you actually mean the "Plus" version?

Pro has access to 1.5.1. Using it here...

Yes, I meant Plus.

The Pro version users do get access to 1.5.1

Sorry, I meant to type Plus.

[bagpipe200]

It's good that there's no possibility of confusion here.

[NAD]

I personally choose to forgive this guy for the absolutely inexcusable f**k-up of typing pro instead of plus.

[fisherKing]

there should be a 'plus/pro' option, where, for example, you can get the 1.5.1 update, when the pro & sub users get 1.5.2...

[vertibration]

New update is very good

There could also be a Plus-Plus option and they get half the 1.5.1 changes

That sounds great !

I haven't been following for a while. Why was Linux LV2 support dropped? There is still VST3 support for Linux, right?

[Tj Shredder]

Maybe all the solved Linux points are related to that…

I just paid the 55$ upgrade price to get the pro version. Vital has shown that it's possible to get a top 5 synth on the market for free. It sounds great and it's very popular. So thank you Matt Tytel.

So when is this 1.5.x stable version planned to be released? Wasn't beta version released half a year ago?

If you read the Vital forum it appears that Matt encountered more UI bugs than anticipated with various system display configurations and is working to fix that. https://forum.vital.audio/latest
