    Just try to use as little products from suspicious companies as possible. NI is a very suspicious company, every product but Kontakt and perhaps Maschine will likely be dead in a comparatively short while.

    Absynth should be brought completely back into the hands that it never should've left in the first place, namely in Mr. Clevinger's.

    It's a shame these EOL apps couldn't be placed in an EOL wrapper, so that only the wrapper would need to be OS-maintained to kee evrything within working. I'm thinking something like ensembles do within Reaktor. As someone with no programming experience, I have no idea whether something like this is possible, but just thinking out loud.

    Alternatively, would it not be possible to resample the presets and make available as either an ensemble within Reaktor or a Kontakt instrument (Legal permission granted by NI, of course)? It wouldn't be the perfect solution, but at least we could keep the sound of the thing alive.

    I think you kind of answered yourself there.

    This is more complicated than just having a "wrapper" which supposedly works for all plugins. The GUI tech alone is very different among the different plugins and plugin developers.

    I think this is the problem with this whole thread: People thinking there are easy solutions to difficult problems. And, that you just have to snap your finger, and everything is possible. Like, developing a niche product forever.
