Professional user here with a high end custom built Windows machine. I grew up on Windows, migrated to Mac and migrated back again. Too many compatibility and upgrade issues on Mac. Pluses and minuses on both platforms, the end result is identical, but I can use any plugin I want. The Mac > Windows argument is childish. We'll be arguing about iOS v Android next.

I think Mac is still the industry standard. So is Pro Tools. An Arturia JX-8P would support both. And VST3, too. PG-8X supports none of the above.

PG-8X is developed by a singular person who probably has a day job? Windows is far more popular than Mac. How about cut him some slack for developing a FREE vst?

Agreed. Maybe some other developer is willing to help with porting

I still use it on my Mac, in Ableton Live 11 running in Rossetta mode. Works fine. If I run Live 12 in non-rosetta, it's unavailable, which is certainly unfortunate. But when I really need this synth, I have a way to use it.

If the rest of you really need to fully derail this into another windows vs mac fight...

Then use the Arturia JX-8P and stop whining about PG-8X.

Most of us have simply moved beyond this long ago abandoned plugin. We’re talking about other developers like Arturia and TAL who could do a JX-8P instead, at this point. There’s no slack to cut PG-8X because it’s simply not a consideration anymore.

Yes, I know.
But for me, posting here seemed to be the only chance to get in contact w/ ML.
No Facebook on my end.
