I like what I hear in the Cakewalk demo's, but they're all processing guitar. Which is a bit strange given that they're called "Vintage Keyboard FX." I was hoping to hear some audio snippets of them in action on some electric piano or something. It's also baffling when you go to the Overloud site and there are no audio demos there. I mean it's pretty much a given these days that a plug manufacturer includes some before & after examples on the site. Not too keen on downloading and installing VST demos without hearing a ballpark example of them in use first.

OK so I found this great demo of VKFX on YouTube. He's putting the Neo-Soul Keys through it and it sounds FANTASTIC. Having said that the Neo-Soul Keys sounds damn good to begin with (don't worry CW, I don't think Neo-Soul Keys is offering this VKFX bundle any more, so I figured safe to post!). The guy's enthusiasm is infectious as well

I have had the VKFX VST for a long time. It is great and i use it a lot. Its mostly aimed at electric pianos and it really brings them to life. But of course there is no reason why you cant use it on guitars or anything else.

Hi all, there is a French site that had tested the VKFX when it came out with some audio examples (rhodes, wurly, Solina...) > "http://fr.audiofanzine.com/bundle-plugin-fx/overloud/vkfx/editorial/tests/des-effets-pour-vos-claviers.html"

Sounds really good! :)
And I've really missed having more different kinds of effects for the PC.
I've created quite a few PC FX Chains with all kinds of effects, but until we get more customization options for this (wishful thinking) it can never replace a "real" PC module.. :)
Thanks CW!! :)

I've only listened to the demos. I just downloaded the demo from overloud though and will test it later today. I can write here later and tell you what I think :)

I listened to the demos as well and they sure sound sweet! I have an itchy credit card these days  99 bucks for a bunch of PC modules are tempting, especially since I absolutely love TH2 and Mark Studio 2! Yeah, if you wouldn't mind sharing your experience with us, I'd love to hear what you think of them

Thanks. I guess I'll pop over to the Overload site, but will welcome your input. I hope they're not too good, because I'll have to buy them then.

Meh. Looks all pretty boring to me. I'm still waiting on my Pultec ProChan module. And some more compressors. Not super happy with the PC76. I find the free Antress 1176 copy sounds heaps better for that 1176 grit sound personally. And for general use compressions it's just too obvious. Even 1dB of gain reduction just sucks all the highs out of the material and the compression is really obvious. I'd like to keep experimenting with it more but unfortunately at the moment there are other comps that are better for each situation I've come across. I'd like to see some more comp emulations to give us some more flexibility and choice. PC2A is fantastic though, by the way. More of that standard would be great.

Looks good to me as not only do we get the Pro Channel versions, but also the full version pack for other programs.
Win 10 Pro x64, 32Gb DDR3 ram, Sonar Platinum, Cubase 9.5, Mackie MCU Pro, Cakewalk VS 100, Roland Octa-Capture, A 800 Pro, Carver M-1.5t amp & C4000 pre amp, various mics, drums and brass instruments. And away we go!

As mentioned earlier, I have had the VST version for a while. It really does the business on electric pianos, I would give it at least an 8. I don't think I will be buying the Prochannel versions unless a decent upgrade offer becomes available.

Well, I can get the whole pack for €99;) when checking out the various audio demos I kept thinking that I'd like to try these and probably find them useful on a number of things besides keyboards. If you rate them at 8, I'd say that's a pretty good score. I'll consider these, at least for this price. Thanks Glyn!

Am I the only having a "issue" getting a link to the demo from Overloud?
Love the Neo Soul Video!
Don't mean to be rude, but if I was trying to sell some bundles, I'd do a little better job with the Cake examples.
I mean, just trying to keep it real...

So I "pulled the trigger" without the demo.  Big Mistake!  Where's the cool rack of gear and all the presets? Evidently that was just for Neo Soul? I told myself I would NEVER do that again; buy before demoing I mean. Breverb, NOT my goto. TH2, NOT my goto. I'll have to "learn" to set up FX chains I guess. Just venting! BUT, I would TRY before I BUY! Tom

That's the VST version, which you should also get along with the Pro channel versions. The presets are pretty good starting points and nicley organised to reflect the keyboard thay were designed for, Rhodes and Wurlis mostly but there are some clav and organ presets too. I guess that is somthing that could be missing in the pro channel version, so just stick the VST in the FX bin.

You might want to send that issue to tech support. It might be that Overloud accidentally used the same code as Breverb to lock to X2 and above.

@Glyn,
I tried that (the FX bin) all modules are individual.
@scook,
I'll do that.
Thanks to both,

@Glyn,

Thats a shame, I had assumed the VST version would be the same as the original Overloud product. I am not at my DAW so I can't check but the I am pretty sure the DLL on that original version is called VKFX.DLL if you want to check and see if its there. On the original you cannot insert individual effects. Those presets are really FX chains inside the VKFX rack interface, maybe they have been ported over to FX chains.

From the Cakewalk email:
Overloud VKFX now ProChannel compatible - buy it today for only $99
We are pleased to announce that Overloud have made their critically-acclaimed Vintage Keyboard FX available in the ProChannel format. Overloud VKFX is a virtual rack packed with outstanding models.
Notice it says "Virtual Rack".
I'll look around for VKFX.dll
The installer for the full suite put a folder called "Overlound" in the Cakewalk/vstplugins folder.
The folder has the 8 individual module dlls in it.
Thanks for the heads up, off to contact support at both Overloud and Cake.
Don't they test these things out???

The product illustration does show the VST VKFX rack. It would be good to know if that is included in the package.
