I just tried the link - looks like this freebie is pretty popular ATM... probably because it was announced at SXSW.

 

Here's the message that the link gave me:

Frustrating when purchasing goods although their support is responsive.

The site and accounts are back on line. Enjoy decapitate. Highly recommend echo boy if u don't have it and in need of a quality delay. Personally got all their plugins. Looking forward to their v5 and rack release.

Have fun whatever you do😃

Hi Phil

 

Looks like their servers gone offline for the past 12 hours or so. Hopefully backup soon.

 

Thanks - I was actually able to get through later yesterday, but it said I didn't have an account (I did), and so I re-registered, but then it said they had no record of my user name when I tried clicking on the sign in link the automated system sent me after I re-registered. I sent them a trouble report, but I suspect it will be a while before I hear back from them; which is understandable IMO under the circumstances.

it's annoying as i just bought decapitator and can't authorise it :)

 

I can understand the frustration - I suspect they're just swamped with all the responses from the new free plugin release and the SXSW exposure. Some of them are probably at SXSW, which means they're short handed on top of the rest of it. I suspect they'll get back to you in a day or two.

 

Look on the bright side - they do make really cool plugins, and you'll be able to enjoy that Decapitator RSN. :)

I also had a bunch of runaround, even though I already had a Pace iLok account. Just the account. I'm not a dongle guy and probably won't ever be. But I got a free iLok-account-requiring plug, Eventide Ultrachannel, a year or two ago and went through a bigger hassle getting through the process. I then had to got through the iLok software installation process again this time around for some reason -- but at least not the far-from-hassle-free iLok registration process.

 

Thanks to Soundtoys and Eventide for the free plugs and iLok for the free, non-dongle iLok account that allows them. But the process was not without a certain amount of sweat equity. (And I'll admit I've yet to use the Ultrachannel on any finished projects, though it seems a reasonable tool; it's just that my DAW has similar tools included in its deluxe package that are maybe a bit slicker; the Alterboy, however, I might try to use to crank up some background vocals -- I was able to get a properly snotty, 60s girl band lead vocal formant/pitch effect (think "Leader of the Pack") and that definitely amused me -- not without artifacts, but, amusing. The T-pain and pitch lock effects, of course, are properly ear-grating. (But check the calendar, it's 2015.)

I like Eventide's Ultrachannel quite a bit. I've been using the TDM version (part of the Anthology II bundle) for years. I thought it was pretty darned cool that they offered the native version of it to people for free for a while, and it was probably good marketing for them since it exposed a lot more people to their excellent plugins, which probably resulted in more sales of their other native plugins.

I do like the Eventide plugins and have several of them (Ultrachannel when free last year), ultraverb and omnipressor (which I rarely find myself using).

 

I do however find the GUIs on the small side with the higher res monitors. Worth checking out the H3000 offer atm (below). Is tempting.
