Can someone give me the 3.0 version please. I updated to the new version 3.1, but now can’t open the synthesizer in my last project.
Only the new version is uploaded on the developer’s site.

I see. Well I’m with Reaper. I’m copying the whole instrument folder in the main VST folder – Luxus has different named folder than the “normal” and updated Minimogue so I can see both plugins. Maybe in some future I’ll try replicate the patches I like:)

How do you install this?

In reply to Kalin. Thanks for trying this out. If the new version can't read patches made with the 32 bit version, that is a major flaw if wanting to keep old projects alive. Means one have to keep both versions, but as the dll files are named the same, in my case the DAW I am using FL Studio can't distinguish between them.

Thanks a lot James and all the BPB team, Great article !
Hope you liked the demo as well.
I just would like to mention the new oversampling feature and the great new 24 db filter :)

Just did a quick comparison with the good old Minimogue Luxus – it’s a 32 bit VST, but Reaper still handles it very well. Yes, sound-wise there is a difference and obvious improvement, but I wouldn’t say it’s groundbreaking. What’s more important, the new version doesn’t read presets made with the old one, which is a bit of a shame because some of the better/more interesting ones are being omitted. Of course that’s a quick and subjective observation, but for now I’m not going to abandon the Luxus version, which I still use even rarely.

The original was fun, and a joy to use because it followed pretty close the Minimoog layout, and OSC waveforms. And I didn’t mind the aliasing it had, even used it musically at times.
This new version makes it a proper, good sounding instrument. The oversampling isn’t needed as much, perhaps when using filter modulation, but not just because you’re getting in the octaves.
Wuvely.

to my ears the audio improvement is noteworthy to say the least

I actually downloaded this but didn’t extract it. I ended coppin the mini v4 from Arturia. I figured since Bob Moog himself co-signed on it being the closest to the real moog, I rather have dat. I got it on sale. I just wish the sale would have happened b4 the sale at Ik multimedia happened. I copped the Syntronik v2 max. All those models n sounds. I copped it on sale so it wuz no big thang. Howeva, it’s alotta gigs those sounds would take up if I downloaded all. Plus the sound doesn’t sound nothin like how Waves mini moog, Miniverse from Cherry audio, or even Monark from NI. Neva mind Mini V4.
