In reply to Eric Korbly. Hi Eric, the offer in this article has expired. PA still offers some free plugins, but the ones listed here were available for a limited time only.

Eventually after signing up, & looking around PA’s website not finding anything more than promises of free plugins I started by logging in then systematically went link to page exploring links then back to first page, like exploring a tree from the trunk onto branch into more branches back to the trunk etc …
Maybe it’s my OS, or my browser? On this device all software is up to date. It’s Safari on an Apple device. Feels like bait & switch.
I have a time limit rule when pursuing free plugins. Companies that really want you to have a product sample for free, make their item easy to find, & at most prompt user to create some form of account / checkout to gain file for download.

In reply to LFO. This is why it is a good idea to buy plugins from developers that don't do sales, they just price their plugin at a reasonable price.

The PA plugins crash my DAWs and even standalone plugin hosts. Discovered the problem has to do with the GPU. When I use the integrated graphic card they work fine but crash when I switch to The Geforce card. It must be something to do with open GL. Problem is most of my other plugins prefer the GeForce especially Serato Sample which is used a lot so sadly I’m gonna have to miss out. A googlle search showed that there are many others with similar problem but PA doesn’t seem interested considering their lack of proper response to those who brought said issue to their attention.

This Bundle iss a real nice gift, bought Oberhausen in the first sale when it was realesed and only this synth is a big big gift, or the best synth gift i´ve ever seen, together with the Blackbox HG2, Focusrite Channelstrip and Shadow Hill Mastering Comp it´s incredible If someone needs a real big sounding synth for less money buy knifonium in salle, it´s also really cool thick sounding device. I also bought elysia mpressor, Millennia NSEQ-2, Lindell Audio TE-100, Brainworx bx_digital V2 and the nice spectral grain delay sandman pro years ago. I have quiet the same collection of PA stuff like J and most stuff for free. Plugin Alliance was and is the best pro effect seller in the market, most of the waves stuff compared with it is overpriced trash.

I don´t know why PA made this step, so last year they lost their working space in a flood and maybe the got a little bit bankrupt, we don´t know….

But thanks a lot for your work, PA is one of the companys how pushed the sound of small homeproducers massive :)

Based on the email I got from Plugin Alliance, I thought I had to endure installing yet another installation manager, But luckily in my PA account I can download the installers, and even authorize the plugins offline. Great! :-)

In reply to Numanoid. I got "Error creating license file." when trying to activate the Plugin Alliance plugins on the Mac (MacOS Monterey).Their support page says to change permissions on a fairly big Application Support folder on my Mac (which isn't straight forward in Monterey due to security) or use a USB stick for the licence file. Anyone know what's up with that?

In reply to Darryl Lim. Do you know, that if you demo Neutron advanced, you get to keep the Visual Mixer after the demo runs out
