Yes, I have several expanders and they all load perfectly. They're recycle 2 files and some waves, which all import perfectly. They don't come as proprietary Geist files, meaning you can use the loops and samples in any sampler or daw that is recycle compatible. :)
Hi,

I'm not sure I fully understand the answer - expanders come with Geist presets & kits included - are these compatible with the v2 format ?

I was pretty upset that Strobe 2 doesn't support V1 presets, or that there's no sign of FXPansion bringing out free 'updates' to the preset packs I purchased from them for Strobe 1 - I hope Geist is not the same :(
It does support V1 presets - just go into legacy mode and they show up. The big problem is it's really hard to know which of them, if any, came with the expansions (I have all of them) because they were not installed by bank but by preset designer so stuff is all over the place and there's no list of presets or way to organise them by bank in the plugin.

Where is the info about the expanders? I really want the cinematic ones.

Here is a new vid they just dropped.

Wack on the limitations for the expanders and otherwise limited new content. I already have the very vast majority of the expanders and they limited out the only ones I want.

Also a bit pissy that people who bought Geist new from MF a few days go are getting Geist 1 and 2 for at least 100 bucks cheaper than longtime users.

Otherwise excited for the update. Just cranky.
Tangled roots perplex her ways.

I thought with the strobe2 release, it was ment this was to eliminate all the others; cypher and amber. Not sure though
