Just to be clear, I was being sarcastic.Tom’s solo on Audioslave’s “Like a Stone” gives me goosebumps. Such emotional playing on that track.

Think it’s as simple as marketing, and how much they can charge for that.Talking about Plexi, 2204, Twin, Deluxe, AC30, Rectifier, IIC+, 5150 and a few Boost pedals in one useful plugin
It is, but thats just the plugin world in general. There's been a race to the bottom with prices, a massive abundance of choice (and general redundancy with the same stuff modelled over and over). The big companies like TC/Lexicon don't really exist in the same way and can't plough vast sums of money into R&D or get away with selling their products for prices like they used to.That's bullshit, that's what it is.
If they did that, it could kill their future sales and accounts receivables projections which they are probably using to bring in more investors. Like selling drugs, "The money is in the comeback..." I said one time at the other place that this company acts like they have financial issues and I got lambasted by a few fanbois, but even though they put out a good product, their business and financial practices seem to be a $hitshow from an outsider looking in.Why do they have to attach their plugins to an artist or brand at all?
I understand it inflates the perceived value out of nothing, it's just pixels on the screen, still, can't they release something that has more actual value with all the standard tube amps everyone uses for recording in one plugin without the cash grab?

How so?Also, Jesus H Christ guys, some of the comments here about Morello remind me of the "yet you participate in society" meme.
Not really. They should sell whatever they can offer for the highest return on their investment. They’re not a charity.That's bullshit, that's what it is.
@BenIfin is currently MIA over there…Wonder what got the warnings on the other place plugin thread![]()
How so?
Of course he should make a living, and is welcome to having a worldview. Same as an animal rights activist or someone working at a meat packing plant. The question becomes what happens when the animal rights activist works at the meat packing plant?Won't name names, but there's a bunch of comments egging on Morello for daring to make a living out of the music industry, given RATMs politics and messaging.

can’t say I ever met one who worked in a meat packing plant
If they brought out an Archetype: Slipknot or Archetype: Limp Bizkit it would sell like hotcakes (insanely more than Morello).Why do they have to attach their plugins to an artist or brand at all?

Was my first "real" job working in the packing plant at Saag's Specialty Meats at 16. Under the table of course. Went on to joining the butchers union along with both of my parents.
I loved animals. They tasted great.
I'm mostly meat-free now as of 2020
This is why I haven't bought any of their plugins. I don't care whose name is on it. I care what it has inside, and the idea of filling up my computer with a bunch of a-la-carte plugins that have a bunch of overlap has zero appeal to me.Why do they have to attach their plugins to an artist or brand at all?
