Ya know......I tried to forgive them........I even thought, live and learn. And.....I really, I can still use it on a single track, or for Mastering.........BUT.....IT'S $32 BUCKS!!!!!! That Cryogenic plugin deal. It's a stereo enhancer, and an exciter....and that type of thing. BUT......IT DOESN'T WORK WITH REAPER. Had I purchased a ton of other plugins....then I would just let it slide......but I've switched to my computer for recording about 3 or 4 months ago.....and the only other Plugin I've bought so far is The Rocket......(Which is worth way more than Stillwell charges)......You can download "FREE" Plugins all day long everyday, that do exactly what they say......AAAAAAAND THERE FREEEEEEEE!!!!!! Why would I want these guys to have my $32 dollars. Just the principle of the thing....and.....the fact that I'm cheap. Thank you for letting me Rant!!!

Nope, not 'cheap'. Standing up for your consumer rights. Do contact the company first though, and maybe someone here will have a solution. Only then send the death threats, lawyers etc.

There is another reason for asking for a refund, it 's to let them know their stuff doesn't work on your gear. If you don't tell them they won't know, so they won't fix it. No need to get angry though, think of them as people that tried to help you but failed, now you are trying to help them to solve their problem. :)

OK, now is the time to send in the big guys with the muscles, tatoos etc. Ex prison inmates are ideal. I know plenty in UK, having been in rehabs many times for my alcohol addiction and depression. Gimmee the money back or we throw you out of the window sometimes works :) Or, much safer and legal, call a lawyer or free legal advice agency. In Uk at least, there is the Sale Of Goods Act which says goods must be suitable for the purpose for which they are sold. Dunno if you are in UK or USA or wherever, but there must be similar legislation wherever you are. Don't get ripped off man/woman. Stay in touch here and very best wishes. Cheers, Nev.

I thought you said it doesn't work. Now it sounds like it does work, but only one instance at a time. This is true for many (synthedit) plugs. So does it work with one instance used?

Almost all free PC vst plugs work fine on any system. A very few synthedit plugs need multicore turning off (SFZ notably) to work in multiple instances. But in Reaper you can do this on a track by track basis. SFZ in single core, if you want multiple instances, everything else in multicore. No problem. Works like a dream. Cheers.
