The more I use and listen to PG-8X the more I am optimistic about digital emulations of analogue equipment/gear. This PG-8X synth plugin is proof that digital emulations can get very close to the sound of analogue hardware. It only takes a talented programmer with good and sharp ears.

Fantastic sound, the PG-8X is one of the closest emulations in existence. Martin Lueders is a genius!

In reply to Andreas. Hi Andreas, have you downloaded the PG-8X_2.0.13_MacVST.zip file from the product page?

Hi Guys

I’m almost as new as can be to this plugin/DAW based way of creating music. Nonetheless it’s a great way to make music.

I don’t if it’s because I all new to this or I just don’t get it!
I have had a really hard time figuring out how to install the new PG-8X VST on my Mac pro and onto Ableton live 9.
Can someone please guide me through, step by step? :-)

I downloaded the two mac files, but I don’t know how to install them and get it to work in Ableton Live 9
I downloaded it from this page https://sites.google.com/site/mlvst0/pg8x-2

I hope someone can help me

Best Regards
Andreas

Wow, what a wonderful synth, and thanks NIEDEC for posting the links to the patches. I aggressively downloaded everything and got it all unpacked and setup. It’s as if I’ve just found an amazing synth with tons of presets, and Tomislav’s enthusiasm is well-founded. A great find, and welcome after a hard day at work!!!

In reply to Bryan Lake. Never mind, I had to close the MIDI learn window. Solved :)

In reply to Pisces. This one always sounded better to me (even the old betas), but it's all a matter of taste really.

In reply to Bryan Lake. However, MIDI Learn is too eager to learn. Anyway to switch off this auto learn function?
