Yes, it upgrades Hybrid and adds VST support.

The issue is that the "free" compatibility updates are not free, and the reason given is that the bundle upgrade was priced low. In my opinion, since the bundle pricing was a decision by AIR, they shouldn't use that to justify charging an upgrade fee for updates that are listed as no-charge. For those who don't want Hybrid 3, there is no option to update the other instruments.

Once on 2.02 the upgrade to 2.04 will be free and contains bunch of stuff, improved AAX and ability to transfer to iLok for a few.

It was $29.99 so not too much for me. Plus I wanted VST for Reaper...

Link to 2.04 notes here:

Default Re: AIR Instruments, AAX Status and Upgrade Information

I bought the Music Production Toolkit 2 for LE a while back and then paid for a Hybrid 1.6 upgrade so it would work with PT10. Now I have upgraded to PT11. It looks like I have a Space AAX licence on my iLok, but how do I go about upgrading from Hybrid 1.6 (if I visit the site, I see an upgrade from 2.0, but how do I get to 2.0?), Eleven LE, Smack! LE, Structure LE?

Thanks, I did a search but did not find much. Everyone seems to be talking about AIEP.

Default Re: AIR Instruments, AAX Status and Upgrade Information

Hi aarron I have the MPT 2 also and as far as I know there are no upgrades available to the AIEP.
I bought the Advance Music Production Suite from Air in December and I am sorry that I did the amount of problems installing the software is a pain in the butt. And to upgrade from 2 to 2.02 will cost £30 which will lead to a free upgrade from 2.02 to 2.04 this upgrade may hopefully solve all the problems I have.
This will be the last software plug-ins I buy from now on I will stick to hardware at least with most hardware you do not get stung with upgrades.

Thanks for the reply. It's not that I necessarily want to upgrade to AIEP... I just want to be able to use Hybrid and the other plugs (especially Eleven LE) that came with MPT2 with PT11 - I paid for Hybrid twice (once to begin with in MPT2 and then a paid upgrade to 1.6) so surely I would not have to buy the full version to work in PT11. Same with the other plugs that came with MPT2.

I had the same situation. I called AIR Customer Support and offered them proof that I owned the Music Production Toolkit 2. They gave me the discount code for the upgrade from Hybrid to the full bundle, but this was maybe a year ago now... Hopefully they will offer the same still.

Strike 2.04 - works like a dream (using Axiom AIR Mini32 as Controller).

Default Re: AIR Instruments, AAX Status and Upgrade Information

Finally, a big thank you AIR for two reasons:

- licenses are now iLok instead of serials
- updaters are now reasonably sized
