The plugin format you would buy

[ahjteam]

Hi, I had a conversation with a guitar plugin developer and I've been asking him many times why not jump the mac wagon as the pc market is already flooded with plenty of free plugins, usually even many times better sounding ones, than on the commercial market.

So answer the poll, in which format would you actually buy a guitar plugin if it sounded awesome to you?

 

[JeffTD]

OS X VST.

 

[[UEAK]Clowd]

PC VST all the way.

 

[Wisheraser]

VST PC

 

[Dalinkwent48@aim.com]

Mac rtas, I'm a rebel

 

[laszlozsolt82]

PC VST

 

[Ruins]

VST offcourse.
I find other formats stupid and pointless. why not to have one format for all so that every one any where on every platfor can use it?
it's like DVD and it's stupid regions. i guess it could be the programming banefits of different platforms different formats but as user/customer i don't care about all this technical stuff, i pay money and i want it to work.

 

[MortenDK]

RTAS mac

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

RTAS MAC of course. I find other formats stupid and pointless, because I happen to use PT on a Mac.

 

[tempe]

AU Mac, and maybe RTAS Mac depending on what happens with this protools native bullshit.

Haha I see what you did there.

Mac AU

 

[Ashgarth]

PC VST

 

[AdamWathan]

Mac VST and PC VST.

 

[jangoux]

OSX vst, no doubt about that

 

[ahjteam]

OS X VST.

...and this for me.

 

[SocialNumb]

AU because like the others said, the rest are stupid and pointless, plus I use Logic.

I'm a protools guy so it's be RTAS Mac for me.

Fighting for customers on PC and VST is kinda pointless as like Ahjteam said, the market is over saturated with awesome sounding free stuff so there's not much incentive to pay for amp sims.
Get something that sounds amazing for the Mac RTAS guys who have zero decent free amp sims, charge a small amount and you'd rack up pretty big sales.

I hate plugins that won't work on both my systems so it has to be Mac and PC, and I hate buying stuff that will ONLY work in PT, I don't know if I'll be using PT a few months from now, probably but if not thats a waste of money...so VST and RTAS too.
