Slate Digital and Platinum.

Hi guys, I was looking at the subscription model for the Slate stuff and it is tempting. But are there issues with the slate stuff and Platinum? Did a google search and can't find a definitive answer.
Thanks Guys,
Andrew

    I recently signed up for the the Slate Bundle subscription, and have had no problems using it with Sonar Platinum.  Not one glitch or crash to date.   Great deal that Slate bundle. Last couple of mixes have been all Slate plugins, and they sound great.

    The old VCC used to be a nightmare, but since Slate changed to the new modular system my VCC and Trigger 2 have both been behaving perfectly. Excellent stuff, you can't fault his plugs. 'Cept for the subscription without owning part - that one I shall stay away from :O)

    Slate + SONAR = works.
     
    I got the subscription (free for four months, thanks Steven) eventhough I own all his plugs. I wanted to to give the Relab LX480 a real work out. 
     
    Again, since I own all his current offerings I will not re-up the sub just for the LX480 as that pkg costs $299 for the years and I can get LX480 right now for $299. Yes I miss out on any new offerings for 2016 but...... I'll probably just buy them if I really want them.

    Thanks Guys, Looking at it If I wanted to buy all his plugs in one go it would add up to about 5yrs of the subscribtion so not a bad deal at all plus you get any new plugs aswell. I think I'll pull the trigger after Christmas.
    Thanks Folks, And Happy Christmas,

    How do you find the LX480? I was looking at that on the site.

    It's a lot better than the NI/Softube version IMO. Never had a 224 or 480 but I did have a PCM 80. Love the Lexicon sound.
     
    LX490 is $299 HERE (must be logged in to see the price).

    I own VCC 1&2, Virtual Tape, Virtual Buss Compressors, Trigger2 and SDD. All of these work great for me. I haven't had any issues. I brought these before the subscription option was available.
     
    BTW... I love your Youtube tutorials!

    Looks like you got your answer Sausy, but I'll chime in that I haven't had a problem with any of his plugs except for FG-X. When I scan plugins it gives me an error message. even weirder, the plug in still works, though I mostly use Ozone 6 right now. I have FG-X, VCC, VTM, SSD4 Platinum, VBC and VMR and am now doing the six month free trial. I also like the relab reverb a lot, but have been using the new ValhallaPlate since it  was released.
