Antique VSTi's Awesome

Holy crap there's a 64 bit version of Model E (Diva faces stiff competition)

Hah! Funny... Model-E was the very first VSTi I owned! Kinda want to give it a try again.

I never owned it but I bought the NI Pro 5 which came out roughly at the same time (well slightly after, Model E was really the first commercial softsynth) - I still have the classic copy of Computer Music that has the original product reviews of them both side by side.

Whoa... memories....

That Model-E is multitimbral.... 16 MIDI channels in one instance. You can build a complete song with one VSTi... I wish more developers made their instruments this way.

Nice surprise! Thanks for the heads up

Interesting! How well does the sound stand up to modern-day plugins...even free ones? Is it worth spending the time to download them?

Not really, but I did anyway. Sure is easy on the cpu

They sound like crap, no competition to todays free vst sector.

Cool!

So are these free now or are the updates for paying customers of the VSTi's in question?

audiojunkie · Post by **audiojunkie** » Mon Nov 28, 2011 10:38 pm

As I understand it, they have been set free... but I've just been informed that they were already pretty tame to begin with.

These are so old and not even relevant. I think the only reason they've done this is to catch other cracked Steinberg stuff. (My paranoia)

Here's hoping they'll set free other, more recent, discontinued vsts.

D'cota anyone?

Dham... When I saw the VB 1... I really thought that they went ahead and re-introduced Virtual Bassist...

Maybe that's what their engineers should spend their free time working on..
