My dear friends in Chineese server room told me a secret that family of unreleased plugins has gained additional two members: AIR Spectral and AIR Expander which makes a total "head count" of 5.
Since these two new effects are not included with current firmware, it makes me belive that we might see some sort of update in a week or so :popcorn:
WDYT ?

My thoughts?

If the plugins are free, okay I guess? They really should be working on bug fixing and UI improvements.
If the plugins are paid, not a remote chance in hell I'll buy. Fix the verification system.

I think they will be free, if they release them at all - in terms of GUI and functionality, plugins themselves look like basic ones . I think that majority of their "brain power" is directed towards 3.x and they just just rehashing old ideas and taking everything out of the drawers so the next 2.x update (if any) doesn't look as bad :lol:
So far we have:
AIR Chorus
AIR Multitap Delay
AIR Vintage Filter
AIR Spectral
AIR Expander

Delay pro / multitap delay - two different things, the latter one is ripped straight from the OPx4...
Just wait until they rip Juras "animated reverb" and sell it for $99 :lol:

...actually it looks like all three of these "new old" plugs are available as of today, so we're left with with only two unreleased now

I "axed" you "dat" cus you forgot to add it to your list heh. there are 6 fx plugins total now looks like. I have the old 4 working, akai got smart though and stopped putting their plugins in before release lol.

they still have sh**loads of algos in place ready to be compiled into plugin - most of them are 10yo rehashed stuff from their previous bundles. Just google AIR/AVID plugin bundle you'll find that 90% of that stuff is in your box already.

EDIT:
for example, do a string search for a "reverb" in the main binary - they have stuff such as:
Nomad Reverb
Dattorro Reverb - open source
Surround Reverb
Animated Reverb
Economy Reverb
DJ Reverb
Matrix Reverb
etc...

You need to weasel your way into irc (irc.libera.chat and /msg ultros yo yo) so we can speak directly again. I am perma banned from facefook. Would be fun to toss ideas around with someone else... also full hack any binary. Cant share publicly akai will fix it. I dont want them to fix it lol.8
