    The think with modular that I didn't like with Softtube's NKS files for Modular is that they include NKS presets that required paid modules. So you would hear something you like only to find modules missing when you loaded the preset. It seems like they were only VST2. Having said that, I would buy some VST3 versions.

    Modular seems kind of complex to make for that reason also. I can certainly look, I don't own it but the core plugin is $89USD but modular ones are always tricky

    The problem with Modular is each preset patch needed its own mapping because of being modular so that’s a lot of work

    On the other hand it may be worth it because Softube’s preset manager really sucks

    I might start making some in small batches but tbh I’m only going to be motivated to make NKS for patches I actually like and frankly a lot of the factory content is terrible


    Maybe if we divide it up as a community we can cover more ground and faster?

    I'd just figure out some way to automate the process. Not sure who has the time to sit and do one preset at a time.

    Yeah I don’t - tried with a couple but some have a lot of pages

    Looking at how Softube have done it with the VST2 version they do appear to have automated it - there is basically 1-3 pages per module (depending on complexity) but the layout of params is all over the place, like they have just gone by automation number rather than logical groupings of params - this is specially apparent in the Buchla OSCs - also params are just given their default automation names so naming is a mess too
