  Hi, SP and John, I wanted to follow-up and just say thank you for letting me vent on both of you. My nightmare is over. It took until early January 2025. UNACCEPTABLE AND HORRIBLE. The support from Magix and from Izotope is just awful. It takes

  RE: Upgrade price for Sound Forge 16 Suite to version, purchased lat month
  What can I expect that's better about how it handles VST plug-ins in 17 vs 16? I have not found anything significant that's better in SF-17.. but I do not use it much due to the third-party 32-bit VST-2 plug-in display issue. Neither SF-16 or 17 (AS

  RE: ACID Music Studio 10.0.108 32 bit vs. ACID Music Studio 11 - opinions?
  @MarkInFL Acid Music Studio 11 is old. I believe it came out around the same time as Acid Pro 9 (2018?). So you might consider an upgrade to Acid Pro 11 or Pro 11 Suite if you care for the additional stuff. I don't think that an upgrade was so cheap

  RE: Why can't I find a FULL list of plugins included with SF Pro 18 Suite?
  My two cents: SFP-18 also includes the legacy NR-2.noise reduction pack, which basically has the same tools as RX Elements. On some procedures and material, it works better than RX, Not as good as RX on others. SFP-17 &18 ha Zplane's elastique

  RE: Sound Forge 17 Pro - Fx Plugin render adds 170ms to end of track
  I cannot duplicate the behavior with the VST-3 plug-ins I have. Does the behavior exist when using the plug-in singularly as well as in a plug-in chain? It may have something to do with the FabFilter plug-in(s). Contact Magix support to find out

  RE: Trying to justify buying Sound Forge 17 Pro
  The CoreFX plug-ins are installed with the SFP-17 program (trial or otherwise), and do not need to be activated separately like the third-party plugs (iZ Ozone, RX and such), so I think they may work in the 'Trial' version of SFP-17.The VST3 folder
