So far no problem on my MacBook Pro.

48 kHz, 24 bit, 256 sample buffer.

• 170 mono instances, default setting (comp, o-pressor, EQ), 98% CPU when passing audio. 3% CPU when not passing audio (baseline empty project is 2-3%)
• 170 mono instances, all modules engaged (polarity, gate, comp, o-pressor, EQ, pitch shift, delay, transformer), 98% CPU when passing audio. 3% CPU when not passing audio (baseline empty project is 2-3%)

12-core Xeon 2.93 GHZ, Win 7, 16GB RAM, PT 11.1.3. "Ignore errors" turned off. Glitch-free audio on all 170 instances. So, no problems here. From what I can tell, they did a bang-up job with this plug-in. Not at all hogging the CPU (~0.59% per instance, or the equivalent of 7% of a single core). My only wish is longer possible delay times, it's capped at 600 ms.

Fyi, Eventide offers one of their plugins as a free download until July 8, here:

Available in AAX format as well as VST (and AU for mac).

Happy Friday!

24 hours after filling in the online form no email, nothing appearing in the ilok license manager. do I just sit tight or have another go? Does the email address have to be the one you have registered with ilok? never tried to add a 3rd party plug in so not sure what should happen.

thanks

I'm not sure. I used the same email as my iLok account, but I don't know whether that is necessary.

Maybe you made a typo when entering your iLok ID in the form?

Email address has nothing to do with this; you just have to give your iLok account name. You won't get a notification that anything is deposited in your iLok account; IIRC the Eventide site says whether the license asset has been deposited in your account successfully. Open the ILM and the asset should be in your account; download it to your iLok and all should be well.

The only email you should get is one with the links to the downloads for the plugin. That email has been running late this week. PM me and I'll shoot you the link.

Uhhh...The email I got with the download links also said that my iLok asset had been deposited in my iLok account.

thanks for the replies. I was inputing the ilok serial number and not my name. Complete novice error. Anyway installed it and used it. at first play it seems a good solid kind of tool. put boom drums at a better place in the mix. Seems quite a clean sound and I didnt really find its character. Will definitely investigate more.

The eventual official email I got with the links did NOT have anything in it referencing the iLok license asset. It was a general mea culpa saying that their email servers were overloaded and it gave the links to the download.
