Fun and creative plug-in that you can get a good sound from fast and easily. I would like to have control over attack and release times but I also get that it's made primarily for creating pumping synth sounds fast without getting distracted by all the possible settings of a normal gate. As you can draw the shape of the envelope however you please I would like the attack to be a bit faster (which you could then slow down through the envelope shape), but it's only a minor drawback. CPU performance is negligible and installation was very easy and fast. Great freebie!

Looks like a cool plugin. Maybe a good alternative to kickstart but so sad it Doesn't work on Reaper. :(

Works perfectly for me on Win10 x64 and Reaper 6.29. Are you sure you installed it correctly and have checked that your system meets the requirements?

This will only run on Windows 8 and 10. If you have Windows 7, it will install everything but the VST3 files.

It's not reasonable to give a low rating to software because it doesn't work on an extinct operating system.

Indeed! There is no reason for a bad rating. Now Win 7 is (sad but true!) an "oldschool" OS without any official support by Microsoft...

I agree with bucko

I agree with prok_amation's one star rating. We can't all afford new computers every time a new bloatware OS comes out and many vst devs are still producing stuff that works on earlier OS, including Win7 so it must be possible.

@Prok-amation, @Erisian: So you think that every plug-in that doesn't support Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, Vista or Win7 should automatically receive 1 star? Most new plug-ins today don't have support for Win7 because it's a OS that is no longer supported. It doesn't make sense for developers to spend time to make sure that their software supports a discontinued OS and even less when you consider that this is a free plug-in. The fact that they have support for both Win 8, Win 10, OS x, 32 and 64 bit VST2/VST3 and AU is damn good enough. Base your ratings on the actual functionality of the plug-in instead of giving inaccurately damaging feedback because it doesn't support your old, discontinued OS.
