In that vein, if I could get my Proteus X2 to work on my Win7/64, it would be one, and although they've been updated to work on the new OS, my still older VIs include the KLC; Novation's VSynth & Bass Station.

I think Absynth is losing its 'further development' status and has been regulated into 'necessary updates' only ATM. (Perhaps FM8 falls under this too).

On another note: While they're new to me, I just bought the 'Backlist Bundle' from HG Fortune. 32b and realeased back in 2010-2011? (Ancient by technology standards), but so far, I absolutely love them! Even though they honestly state they're not sure if they will spend any time trying to update or continue to develope them any further. (I've even downloaded a few of their 'NFG' VIs too and find them too excellent not to include here).
HG Fortune's low priced Bundle: Serenity; Ultra Swamp; Avatar are great!
Freebies: STS26; SwampXT; ScapesWizard; Altair4B still have uses too.

(Oh, and they work great under 64b)

Ten technology years, which has a mathmatically exponential growth rate making it quite old.

Its hard to tell what is old vs. what is really old.
I still use Krakli Effex on like every track.
Thats got to be pretty old.

Tassman 4 is worth a mention here. It's an incredible synth/musical toy. Something a mad scientist just has to have.

And all of these creations were encoded in the state of the universe a nanosecond after the big bang.

In praise of older plugs.
