Glad it’s not just me then !
Haha, that's what I was thinking when I read your comment.
Same thing here. Took forever to load the site, then another forever to create an account. Downloaded the EQ but it says I'm not online so can't register. Hopefully they will sort it out.
just got mine, thx a lot mister_rz
Just got an email back from their support (very quick response!) and Overloud says they are having an unusual load on their servers (I guess humans like free stuff) and to keep trying to register even later today.
No problem, there gem stuff has been really good, not sure about the highs tho on this eq, but I like driving the input and compensating with the output to get some nice saturation going.
Sweet, I'll try again in a bit, not to sure what I'm going to do with the stand alone version tho, might uninstall it.
Same here, to save hard drive space I only install the AU version of plug ins on my mac and I go delete the VST and AAX versions after install if it won't let me customize the install how I like it.
Just a quick heads up for all those people that have a focusrite soundcard from the last ten years or so, plugin collective this month is very sweet, 3 audiothing plugins for free and a half price off voucher, think you have to use it the same time you download the plugs and can only be used once. Offer runs till end of march.

The AAX thing is a pita when it doesn't give you the option, find I have to go into its folder every now and then to delete the extra plugins, even get RTAS plugin build up at times, which is like meeting someone who still speaks latin.
For anybody interesting in some unique, small but high quality samples/instruments you should watch until Spitfire Audio release the new Labs.
I bought the top 10 for just €5 (which is closed yet and was for charity) and was surprised how good some of these tiny tools are.
While you need the full Kontakt yet you don´t will need that for the new release since they get a dedicated plug-in (an iOS developer was involved here too ) and they will be totally free as well.
These things are little gems and worth a try:

Free MIDI rotator plug in to be used as a Logic MIDI FX. This is from Robby Kilgore, the person that created the MIDI Rotator for the late Michael Brecker which he used with an EWI. Mac plugin for now but PC is supposedly coming soon.
He also has a Midibot script at the GitHub link below that can be pasted into a Logic MIDI script and saved which allows very cool probability for drum tracks etc. Not sure if it's still available but at one point he developed an iOS app called Drum Toy which the MidiBot script is based on.
Plugin is here:

Facebook link here with some cool videos

Just a quick heads up for something very tasty coming in a few days, this will only be free from the 18th may to 3rd of june, looks like a monster of a delay plugin, I'll bump this when it lands.
https://www.meldaproduction.com/MSpectralDelay
That does sound good, thanks for the heads up.
This is free aswell currently.
https://polyversemusic.com/products/wider/
When I was checking out the MSpectral Delay, I discovered that MeldaProductions has an amazing free bundle of FX. I don't know if this has already been mentioned. I downloaded them last night and spent the whole evening checking them out.
https://www.meldaproduction.com/MFreeFXBundle
These are not basic things--they are complex, powerful tools. All of them are good and some of them are really great. And there are some unusual things in there like an Oscilloscope, MRecorder (which records the plugin input into a wave file), Autopan, SpectralPan, Waveshaper, MNotepad (a text editor). What's great is so many of them have extensive presets.
The last thing I need is another EQ, but even their freebie EQ is quite interesting in its approach and is powerful.
But how convenient is it to work with these free tools: are the 'pro'-options/features grayed out/disabled or are they constantly asking to buy the upgrade? And I also read that MSpectral uses its own license manager; do you have to install and use that software to use their free bundle (and MSpectral Delay)?
Each plugin looks like this, with the red reminder box at the bottom.
There's nothing grayed out. They are the same as the extended versions which cost €49 ($59) for the whole set, with the big exception that you can't save and load your own patches.
With the upgrade
The biggest difference here is saving and loading your own presets. I didn't notice that until now. That's a big deal. But of course you can save them in your projects. There are so many useful presets that this is still very useful. And many of these FX, like metering, don't require user presets.
If I find myself using them a lot I might pick up the full thing some day. Maybe it will even go on one of their regular half price sales.
Of course the €49 package is just an expanded version of the free plugins. It's not the professional plugins, which cost much more. But these aren't stripped down versions of the big plugins (with grayed out stuff) , they are full versions of a smaller programs.
It isn't exactly a license manager, it's more like a download manager. There's no licensing--you can download it without even registering on the site. It is a program and when you launch it you are given the option to download whatever Melda stuff you'd like to, including the demos. You can do it whenever you want, and get more stuff and even use it to remove everything The demos are fully functioning and last 14 days.
I prefer this to the way other companies, like IK and Soundtoys do it, where you have to download everything they have even if you just want to try out a single plugin.
Thank you @Reid for that extra info!
Another nice freebie this way comes, curtesy of boz digital labs, it's a plugin for low end even does the pultec trick with one knob, now at version 2.
https://www.bozdigitallabs.com/product/bark-of-dog/
Not long everyone till the budgie has landed.
You can download the free MSpectral delay now from Version 12 of the Universal Installer without registering.
But you'll have to register on the site to get the license. Once you've saved it on your computer, you register within the MSpectral Delay simply by telling it where you've saved the license on your computer.
My initial impression is that this is one powerful but weird plugin that stretches the outer limits of what's possible with delay effects. Not what you would need to use with your every day delay effects.
Heading over there now to get my copy, glad it's come early as I'll have the energy to play around with it a bit, make some presets, melda's modulation system tho is a beast.
Quick video on how to activate melda plugs.
Any good?
Thing I'm liking about it the most is the micro delay setting, you can get some great stereo width out of it, make stuff sound like it's popping out the speakers or headphones. Can have a very metallic sound to it, going through the presets, but has a ton of options, which is a blessing for sound design or curse if you want to just get going and creative.
Not sure about the pitch shifting yet, as it sounds a bit off like most pitch shifting stuff, zynaptiq plugins are some of the best for pitch manipulation, but expensive and cpu heavy. I'd say it's worth a download, but to get the most out of it, have to invest a bit of time as their fx are like synths, can see some great possibilities but need to experiment more, licenses are nfr and don't count towards bundles.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll have a look tomorrow if I get a chance.
I’m a big fan of Discord 4 on iOS, so if it’s capable of anything close to that I’d be very happy.
There's another unusual delay plugin available free right now from Pluginboutique
Soundspot's Nebula is free with code NEB100
Nebula is a multi-fx plugin that features Stereo Delay, Chorus, Flanger, Filter & LFO sections.
You can also get AIR'S Hybrid 3 synth free now with code HYB100
You have to check them out of the store separately.
These were given out as a promotion to try and keep regular subscribers on their mailing list to opt in again.
Apologies if these have been posted before, but they look interesting in the YouTube demos:
https://glitchmachines.com/products/free-bundle/
Glitch machines stuff is very interesting took me a while to get my head around, some of their earlier stuff under a different name is well worth checking out too, here's the free stuff.

That melda delay, after playing with it a while is c'est magnifique, especially for textured delay stuff, defo worth a download if you haven't already.
They're great. Been using them for a while now. Try one in an fx chain, with say, dubstation on either side on different settings. Instant dubby glitchy greatness. Packed full of brilliant pre-sets, which to be honest, i haven't strayed far from , cause they're all brilliant..........
Thanks for all the top recommendations here everyone, I've discovered some great stuff............cheers!
Thanks, no hadn’t seen those.
Just downloaded the GM fx, so I’ll have a play with those later.
