Kaleidoscope 2, but the devs started a public warfare amongst each other and the whole company went down the drain.

This is super interesting, no? I mean in the sense that perception of a firm and reality are often disconnected in the modern era. It's so easy to pretend to be a serious firm and then the whole thing falls apart when the tiny little firm implodes on itself. This is why it's a hard no from me on new firms and C/R.

The Soundtoys desk channel/bus plugin.

Juce or something?

That's the one.

Tassman 2
You may recall for how many years this was promised, and then Oops we can't do it.

Well, 2CAudio seemed to be a serious and trustful company for many years and they developed some really outstanding plug-ins, but then they started that disgraceful mud fight and all development stopped, so sad really.

Do you remember the anticipation for Alchemy 2... and then the sale to Apple?

Yeah but Alchemy in Logic is what became of Alchemy 2, but just locked to one host now

its the "bait and switch" variation - a rumored plugin that never was but then became something else

All of Wolfgang Palm's PPG synths that were sold to Brainworx and Plugin Alliance. Four years ago Dick Ulrich from Brainworx said, “We are proud that Wolfgang Palm put his brand and product into our hands. We will make sure to carry his legacy with the respect it deserves and we are looking forward to evolving the brand and products for years to come.”

What is a 'rhetorical comment'?

no, "what" is not a rhetorical comment, what is what.

What can be a rhetorical comment.
'What' as in exempli gratia 'WTF?' is ~rhetorical~ because that question is asked for artistic effect only, having no rational answer. See:

my comment was meant to be rhetorical, it was not meant to be responded to.

No rumor, the information came from U-He. I guess it proved to be more difficult to pull off than expected. I guess as consolation we were given extra free effects. Part of me was pretty disappointed, but when I think about the value of the bundle, it’s still a good deal. Maybe we’ll even get Uhbik 2 one day…
