    Hi folks. Okay, i'll skip right past the fact that i'm hugely disappointed about the new Convo Verb being for Intel Macs only. 

    With that out of the way, my question is this: I already have the original VS (1.0...) but with these new system requirements (and im on a PPC from right before they went Intel only) i am wondering, is the ENTIRE Vienna Suite (with all its new presets and any other modifications) Intel-only, or is it just the Convolution Reverb that requires in Intel? Can i install VS 1.1 and simply not have the Reverb, or will NONE of it even install on my PPC G5 system?

    Despite the fact that i am disgruntled about this Intel only issue, it sure would be nice to at least get the new presets for this software which i just bought a few months ago, with nary a warning that future updates for it would be incompatible on my system.

    Aside from that, i love ya VSL team, but i know im not the only one still using a massively pimped out PPC who feels a bit befuddled about the disregard towards us "old" computer users  :)

    Hello mplaster,

    only the Convolution Reverb requires an Intel processor, all other plug-ins work just like before, and of course the new presets are added.

    You can test this very easily by downloading your Vienna Suite software update.

    May I ask what kept you from giving this a try?

    Best,

    Paul
