Added the rest of my Massive previews including 5 more sets of previews for some 'The Unfinished' banks - these are in addition to the Unfinished previews shared by s_aizawa above

FM8 next - then Absynth 5

Vagus

Added to the NKS User Library - Other Desert Cities, by Audio Damage.

Some brilliant delays on this plugin:

Thanks I don’t have that but did consider it - at the time I felt it did not offer much I could not get from Replika XT and Silo but maybe I was wrong?

Kymeia

Added previews for 15 FM8 banks to the Previews folder in the NKS User Library

Absynth next - that will take a while though as my Absynth user library is a mess - so many downloaded banks and imported glos

I think it's all about preferremce - I've got too many FX plugins (all plugins really), but I use them for inspiration, rather than going for a specific effect.

Just posted the first batch of Absynth previews - these for some of my favourites - Biolabs Absynth Sounds including the bonus and Tim Conrardy patches and some extra ones by biomechanoid from the user library and previews for all Absynth banks by Leap Into The Void

Did somebody know if the ReFX Nexus Team are also working on an update for the NKS VST3 support on M1?

I can't find anything about that also if Arturia is doing something?

Kymeia

I know Arturia are

Not sure about ReFX

OK I have reorganised a lot of free patches as many were just in small banks of a few patches or single patches and also consolidated some older Absynth version factory patches and generated previews for them all, as well as the remaining commercial banks I own. For the commercial banks obviously these only have the previews and the organisation is untouched, but for the ones I have reorganised it makes sense to include the presets as well as the previews, otherwise it would be a pain for people to work out what goes where. As these are free and old factory patches I trust this is ok but if anyone objects to a patch or bank of their's being hosted here I will remove it.

Still have a few odds and ends to sort out

For those of you who are using gulp to rename and tag banks: I don't know if someone else did it before, but i discovered that the gulp script can be modified in numerous ways to speed things up!

Here is an example of 10 simultaneous folders, with various combinations of products, banks and sub-banks (i have test it to up to 25 folders and it is perfectly working, but lets stay on 10 for now):

gulp.task 'rewrite', ->
  gulp.src ["src/**/*.nksf", "src/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Zebra2', 'Trance Euphoria', 'Future Trance Anthems']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src1/**/*.nksf", "src1/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Zebra2', 'Trance TechnoSoundbanks', 'Monsterpack']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src2/**/*.nksf", "src2/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Zebra2', 'Triple Spiral Audio', 'Beyond Dreams']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src3/**/*.nksf", "src3/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Zebra2', 'Triple Spiral Audio', 'Black']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src4/**/*.nksf", "src4/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Zebra2', 'Triple Spiral Audio', 'White']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src5/**/*.nksf", "src5/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Sylenth1', 'Revealed', 'Bass Vol. 1']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src6/**/*.nksf", "src6/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Sylenth1', 'Revealed', 'Bass Vol. 2']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src7/**/*.nksf", "src7/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Sylenth1', 'Psylenth', 'Forest']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src8/**/*.nksf", "src8/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Dune3', 'Starmap', '']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'
  gulp.src ["src9/**/*.nksf", "src9/**/*.nksfx"]
    .pipe rewrite
      bankchain: ['Dune3', 'Paradox', '']
    .pipe gulp.dest 'dist'

You have to make 10 folders (or, as many you like, as long as you expand the script too) named src1, src2, src3 etc. and on each folder you add a bank (even from different vendors and products, with sub-banks or not), but you keep only one dist folder. Everything goes there, with much less copy-paste bank by bank!

I hope it will be helpful to some of you 😉

Many thanks for this trick ! 👍️

For those who have Maschine but not Komplete Kontrol and want to see images on their NKS presets, instead of blank files, i made 2 custom images and also separate the instrument from the FX in registry, as: Native Kontrol Standard Instrument Preset, and Native Kontrol Standard FX Preset.

The registry values needs the 2 icons to be at: C:\Users\Public\Documents\NI Resources, but you can modify them easily to whatever folder you like. This is for Windows users, but maybe can be useful to Mac users as well, with some modification.

Zip archive includes 2 Windows .ico file and 1 .reg (Registration entry) file.

Thanks. That is real handy. I have converted these to Mac format and sent to you in case you wanted to share. Much appreciated.
