Nice review, Clifton. Another amazing thing about Spectral is the TON of control routings it has!!! An amazing synth - one of the best things I've got in my arsenal and it gets a lot of use.

Thank you so much indeed. For me I think this is one of the best they ever came out and now it's considered my primary synth. So much you can do and even sets everything apart from other synths I tested. Just absolutely amazing it just totally blew my mind.

+1 for this.

it's baffling to me how this isn't talked about much. like a few of their others. like octopus.. i have morphox somewhere. i may have to dust that off and have another look : ].

I think this is a highly advanced synth within it's self and most people don't realize it. I only had it for just a few days and all the sudden I just went nuts over this machine. I;m just sort of tinkering around this and coming up with cool unusual stuffs I programed;).

That's pretty sad to hear that Linplug had stopped production. Anyway I just uploaded new patches for anyone who can use them. Maybe very convincing.

Where did you upload them to, Clifton? I'm interested - even if I do have TONS of patches already! :-).

I just uploaded and updated to 13 new patches. This should be really worth checking out due to more interesting sounds. The name is called CB HighZone.

Hoping someone can help me ! .........I bought Linplug MorphX and Spectral many years ago. Been working overseas for years and never got round to installing the proper versions (the demo versions I have still have that hissing sound every 60 seconds). Im getting back into my music now but have just discovered that LinPlug have been liquidated. Still have the serial Nos. Is there anywhere I can still download these ?

These are some of the best plugins for psychedelic sounds and sound design.

I use Spectral, Morphox or Chronox on pretty much every project. They are starting to crash now since Bitwig 3, mostly when trying to access the GUI.

Also if/when OS X makes it impossible to stay on Mojave all the 32-bit plugins will be unusable. I've been thinking about starting a kickstarter to try and revive them again or make 64-bit versions. It surprises me that more isn't discussed about saving these plugins. I think they're up there with classic hardware synths (wouldnt it be amazing to have these 3 in a hardware version (small computer running them as plugins maybe, with purpose-built controller).

They already all come in 64-bit versions. They are still some of the best plugins ever made.

Oh interesting! I didnt realise that. Maybe I didnt update them in time, or there's another reason why they are crashing.

Chronox recently won't open the GUI in Bitwig without crashing the plugin.

Hey, first time posting I know this is an old thread but worth a shot. Does anyone know where I could get the 64-bit version of this? I have a 32-bit version on my laptop but my Mac doesn't support 32s anymore and this synth was in a ton of different projects. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

HI.

I have had to reinstall and so I've lost a load of presets. esp. BIgtone.

Does anyone know where they might be found?

I see it's no longer supported by Linplug : (.
