Yes. But this is an updated PRO version.
Take a look in TVF to the related plugsound things...

the keygen on the site doesn't work.. has anyone managed to authorize the plugsounds for mac? :(

Yes, works great on Mac OS 9...
http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,1097.0.html
From the download page...
NOTES/INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download all 7 CD Image files
2. "Remove Mac Binary Encoding" on all 6 Toast CD Image files with StuffIt (Simply double click each toast file or Open StuffIt and use Menu)
3. Mount all CD-ROM toast images using Toast (Utilities/Mount Disk Image) or Burn 6 CDs
4. Use Virtual PC for Mac or a Real PC to run the "Keygen.exe" (.EXE files obviously DO NOT run under Mac OS 9)
5. Type the "Challenge Code" into the Keygen program to Get the "Response Code"
6. use the "Response Code" to authorize
-
As mentioned in DieHard's post, You would need to use the keygen on a windows machine first and use that information onto a mac in order to get it working on OS9.
-
yes I downloaded keygen from pc.. it doesn't open with pc, I also tried to download it several times.. it's not a compressed file it's directly .exe. Do I lose information when downloading it? you download it and can you open it? or tried on different PCs and it doesn't work.. in addition to downloading and opening it, do I have to do something or am I doing something wrong? let me know, thanks :)
-
The keygen downloads as .exe file, but in reality it is an archive! Just rename it to .zip, decompress and you'll be good to go.
-
Thanks for the reply. I solved it with keygen by applying the .bin extension instead of exe., but I have another problem the plugin gives me a 10-character code to apply to the keygen which gives me a number but it doesn't work. in the download text it says that the keygen does not work with serial numbers more than 9...how do I fix it? Am I the only one that plussound gives me 10 serial numbers?
-
from : http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php/topic,1097.0.html
If challenge number is over 9 digits, the PC KeyGen doesn't work, the KeyGen response number must be "manually" typed, not Copy/Pasted
-
yes exactly... as I wrote above " in the text of the download ( the link you wrote ) if higher than 9 it doesn't work .. " so? I have no alternative to authorize it? all you mac users did PlugSound give you 9 characters? does it depend on something in particular that on my mac it gives 10? can i change that number to make keygen work? let me know, thanks
-
Yes, good to read all our little notes :)
-
OK, if you get really hung up on the auth, you can use the "Plugsound Free" version as a permanent version in this manner...
From a previous post...
Another approach if you want to use multiple Plugsound libraries (and you are not familiar with resedit):
This method only requires copying and renaming files...
The following example is for Cubase VST with the keyboard library:
1. First download Plusound Free Version and unstuff
2. Mount the CD in toast of the Plugsound library you want
3. Copy the PS01 - Keyboards.dat (or whatever dat) file off the mounted CD image to the hard drive
4. in Cubase under VST Plugins create a folder
Plugsound - Keyboards (PS01)
5. Copy the Plugsound free VST Plugin following into the folder, Hold the alt key so that you get a copy, since you will need to have an addition copy for each library
6. Rename the Plugsound Free VST plugin to Keyboards - Plugsound PS01 This gives it a unique name in the Cubase Instrument menu
7. Copy the PS01 - Keyboards.dat file into the same folder
8. Create an Alias of the PS01 - Keyboards.dat file by hitting CMD-M
9. Rename the alias to Plugsoud Free.dat and leave it in the same folder
So to summarize you will have a unique folder (for each plugsound sample pack) under VSTplugins that contains:
- The renamed Plugsound Free VST Plugin (so that you recognize the library as unique in Cubase when you load it)
- The Dat file
- An alias to the dat file that is renamed to Plugsound Free.dat
Special Note: in the case of the Plugsound free library, you can rename the dat file (to Plugsound Free 1.dat) so that the alias and filename are different
-
the "rename" part needs clarification as not everyone knows that by heart.
to make a VST show up with another name, you have to open it with resedit and change the name of the aEff resource. you can do so by selecting it and then open the command-I for this resource.
if you play around with this, be aware that this is the name projects of host programs find their plugins back, so if you rename "prophet" to "bubu" your old projects will no longer work and you will no longer be compatible with other people.
for the same reason you should make sure to exactly type "Keyboards - Plugsound PS01" like noted above for the PS-free-hack.

No my method needs NO resedit. As stated, This method only requires copying and renaming files...You do NOT have to make the VST show up with a different name. My method makes the "free" version think it's playing the "free" sample pack, when it is playing the real thing, it works as advertised :)

A am assuming it is a fresh install so the loading of old products need not apply. Once you do this all projects created will reload fine
-
i know that you dont need to do it, but it said they would show up as such.
if you want them to show up differently, renaming the files is not enough. :)
renaming the plug-in IDs can be useful if you want to install different versions. i once did this with waveshell and orange vocoder 1.5
-
thanks to all of you for the info..I will try the system with the free Plusound!
-
I report here my latest discoveries hoping they will help someone.. I tried them with Charlie and Plugsound
I wondered what was generating the serial number. my MDD produces 10...uhm..I thought these plugs are
really old so i tried to use an old powermac agp and..wow!
9 characters. I managed to authorize everything with ease. i took my hd mounted on mdd and mounted it on the old agp and
I authorized everything successfully with the same numbers.. put HD back on MDD unfortunately it doesn't work..
the serial is generated and linked to the computer.
what the plug will read during installation is a mystery...
it would be nice to be able to modify these to be able to authorize all computers..
-
I wanted a small reverse engineering challenge and had a look at one of the plugins.
The challenge / response algorithm seems pretty simple.
I'm not an audio guy but I managed to load the plugin. I only get a 9-digit challenge...
Can you send me your 10-digit challenge for Plugsound 1 Keyboards.
If my generated response works, I will make a new KeyGen for these plugins.
-
this would be great.. my 1 Keyboard number is : 1384915638 :)
-
Try 1475737414 as the response
-
wow it works.. you fixed it.. looking forward to your new keygen! Charlie always has the same problem from the same house as Plugsound, he probably has the same solution.. there are many users like me.. we are in your hands.. thanks for your work!
-
Cool! I will continue with my keygen and release it here in the next days.
AFAICT the algorithm is the same for all Plugsound and the Charlie plugin.
There is only a constant key which is different for every product.
So my plan is to have a single keygen for all these.
-
we will wait.. good job!
-
Attached is my first try at a keygen for the plugins.
Let me know if it works and which plugins you have tested.
-
tried all in OS9 on two computers.. you did it! everything works! I would like to recover the Plugsounds for OSX to see if they work there too..I'll let you know. thank you thank you for your work! :D
-
@DieHard since we have a confirmation that this keygen works. Feel free to add it to the disc-image downloads and replace the pc-keygen.
-
if anyone has the vst files of the OSX Plugsounds please attach them. I try those too.
-

You can take that to the bank ! I am sure this will benefit many musicians on a budget, Excellent work !

@DieHard
Please check the credits. It's Windoze, not Windowe ;)
-
Yeah, typo, fixed thanks :)
-
@redstudio did you also test the charlie plugins?
If yes @DieHard can add the keygen there too
-
yes Charlie too.. all working. also wonderful to open the keygen without having to turn on a PC.. perhaps the only keygen for OS9.. a piece of history.
-
hello.. I want to relaunch the challenge Windoze.. there are two other USB products from the same house of plugsounds that work under OSX, Ultrafocus and X-treme (there are Plugsounds for OSX but I don't have them..I hope to find them..) I think that the Keygen engine is the same.. do you want to try? you could then add the results to your already great keygen to make it really complete for USB/UVI licensing! I am attaching the serials that come to me:
Ultra Focus 1049411916
X-treme 1035675871..
let us know! :)
-
we could use a keygen for IK Multimedia products
-
I can't find downloads for "Ultra Focus" or "X-treme" can you provide them.
-
I have those files but it is 17GB in total.
I will try to update them to MEGA today.
-
he only needs the plug-in files. :)
(they are OSX only and there should be k - just saying)
-
Come on, just plugins? :P
Btw, he can always extract them :P
Just kidding :)
PS
All untested.
-
if they are OSX only it doesn't make much sense to add them to a OS9 only keygen.
but i can have a look anyway
-
C'mon, guys, be more respectful. As if Windoze have nothing better to do than please everyone's needs. ;)
@Windoze - if you really want a challenge, try making keygens for SpectraFoo or Barbabatch for OS9. Those are serious tools. Both were done for OSX. Yes, there were k's around, but, IIRC, at least foo was k'ed crippled demo.
-
@Windoze - if you really want a challenge, try making keygens for SpectraFoo or Barbabatch for OS9.
i can upload zapfilter and goovedelay demos whenever it is needed for someone to kill time and help us to complete lists. ;)
-
SSP3 I have great respect for Windoze (just re-read what I wrote in the post above ..) this is not about pleasing everyone I did not propose random software and I decided which tools are serious and not, but I noticed that the rebus solved by Windoze probably even if OSX adapts to plugins of the same brand.. not random plugins.. the possibility of creating a general Keygen for USB/UVI products seemed like a good challenge for him too since he knows the key to solve .. that's all. I have respect and admiration for Windoze.
-
As far as I know, for reversers, purely from reversing point of view, a challenge is to crack a really tough nuts. ;)
(Pace unwrapper for PPC ala XVX anyone? That would bring a lot of goodies to the PPC table..)
If it's only to make more stuff available and one has time and will, then why not.
-
I tried the keygens proposed by Eastone.. x-treme works for mac but Ultrafocus doesn't.. has anyone tried them? did you manage to authorize them both for mac? i never understood why keygen for pc and mac are different numbers...
-
The algorithms for the "Ultra Focus" and "X-treme FX" challenge / response are exactly the same as on "PlugSound" and "Charlie".
So it took only a few minutes to add them. The updated Keygen is attached.
-
thank you Windoze! all tested and working! I suspected it was all a single puzzle, for what I have proposed other plugins even if for OSX, I thought that the big job had already been done. Thank you. I confirm tried everything and everything works. I'm sorry I can't confirm if the plugsounds work also on OSX because I haven't found them yet (if someone has them please attach them..just the vst files are enough, the libraries are already present in OS9.. Windoze thanks..
-
Hi there everyone,
Was there ever a keygen created for Ultra Focus running in Win XP or Win7? The issue I have is between Daws, Logic on Mac os9 and Mac X and Cakewalk on PC.
with thanks
