In reply to mx. I know, you have to download their entire plugins bundle, what a pain.

I tried the free RO-GOLD Vintage Gold-Plate Reverb Version 2.6.1, and it is a super CPU hogger; it brought down my Pro Tools session to a stall. No wonder why this is free.

In reply to Mike.

my activation worked fine, just like it should. i have used the plugin already.
it is just a stupid question, but i caught myself doing this a couple of times already: are you sure that you did not copy and paste a spacebar, forgot one letter somewhere or something similar?
if it does not work after excluding all mistakes i would write to black rooster support.

In reply to mx. I just tried activating using my account's serial key and the plugin popup is saying invalid email or serial.

In reply to alex. Thanks! I ctrl + f'd and didn't find any mention of a download on the page linked in the article. This link is perfect.

In reply to D.

on the website there is an FAQ which clearly explains how to install and activate their plugins. not that it is a very complicated or unusual process to copy a serial number from an account to the plugin window when you first start the plugin…

“join our community” just means you have to sign up for an account, but could you name any plugin developer which doesnt want you to create an account?
maybe there are some, but i dont know any example at the moment.

sure, it is a bit annoying that you need to download all of their plugins for just one that you want to install, but it is also a bit annoying to read this kind of complaints about free plugins in the comments, especially when somebody before mentioned the exact same thing.

could everybody who writes comments maybe also read the other comments before (and maybe also the text or faq on the websites they are commenting on)?

(thanks for pointing THAT out though, meow…)

That was painful. Half a *gigabyte* of unrelated installer to download, and signing up to the newsletter isn’t the answer, you have to go via “Join our Community”, not that it says clearly anywhere on their site how to activate it!

(Thanks for pointing it out though!)

In reply to alex. Yer.. 515mb to download this free plugin, then you have a license manager an licence activation to navigate.. I know its free and they produce high quality plugins, but that is a bit of a burden and may put some people off, especially when there are so many other free shiny objects, taking our attention..

And it’s a single installer for all of their plugins. But I finally got to try Cypress TT-15 which I should have done a long time ago :)

I’ve never got the download link, but there’s actually direct download:

Mmm, no CLAP. Hah, I’ll take solace thinking it might have avian flu.
