Nomad Factory released 80'sSpace v2 on August 30.

https://go.nomadfactory.com/products/p3054-80s-Spaces/

I learned about it through the DontCrac[k] newsletter.

The new version supports the latest OS at the moment, AAX native, VST2, VST3, Intel x64 CPU and Apple Silicon.

The IRs and presets have been greatly increased and the UI has been revamped.

Sound quality was perfect, CPU load was light, and operation was nimble.

Mr. Eric Norot, CEO of Plugivery / Nomad Factory, sent out the following message in the DontCrac[k] newsletter.
"Nomad Factory users have been eagerly waiting for this. this upgrade will affect the entire Nomad Factory product line over the course of the next few months."
"It has been very challenging for myself and the development team at Plugivery to take over the Nomad factory brand, a few years back, when owner and CEO Bernie Torelli sadly past away. Our developers have been hard at work to port, literally, millions of lines of codes to our modern framework assuring backward compatibility, and FREE upgrades for the next decades. We hope to have all Nomad Factory products ported to our new framework as soon as we possibly can."

I love NomadFactory plug-ins, so I hope that Mr. Eric Norot's words will come true and we will have a "brighter future" this time around.

What do you guys expect from NomadFactory in the future?

If we send our requests to Plugivery / Nomad Factory, maybe something will change.

Finally, Mr. Eric Norot and Plugivery's user support personnel, please also check the user forum and reply.

It's great news that the Nomad Factory plugins are getting some love from a new team!

I had the honor and privilege of doing some beta testing for Bernie before he passed away and his generosity has provided me with licenses for almost all the NF catalog except the 80's Spaces which I may pick up during the sale.

So I'm very exited that great plugins like Cosmos, Drum Tools, MFX-Magma etc may be in active development again.

However, one of the things I'm reading on various forums and these are my feelings as well, one of the most useful updates would be for resizable GUIs or at least more GUI size options.

When most of the NF factory plugins were first released, common monitor resolutions were much smaller such as 1366 x 768. Today 1920x1080 is one of the most common resolutions and 4K is becoming more and more popular.

This causes what I call "GUI Shrink" where plugins that were the perfect size on older resolutions are now too small for today's higher res.

I noticed this right away with the 80's Spaces version 2 update. While it is usable at 1920x1080 it is a bit too small to be comfortable. I don't have a 4K monitor but imagine it would be even smaller on one of them.

So I'd like to encourage the new team to look into resizable GUIs for any of the NF plugins that get updated.
