OMG mmmmmmm

I was expecting Pro-Q4, Pro-C3 or Pro-L3 but not Pro-R2 - none the less, this is good as well.

Oh cool! The intro is out!

If you look carefully at that intro video you can see that it represents the song pretty closely. Those are really all my automation lanes going nuts, the freeze button hits exactly at the correct place in the video too! Nicely done Bas!

IR import

Just want to comment on this as there seems to be a lot of misunderstanding of this, going by the comments in the youtube video. Probably the words "IR Import" wasn't the correct choice of words. They should have called it "IR analysis and synthesis".. or something like that.

It's not actual convolution. In a way it's much cooler than that. It analyzes the impulse response, then synthesizes it and parameterizes to the Pro-R 'Modern' algorithm. Setting pre-delay, size, length, EQ and all the damping automatically. Naturally this wont always result in a 1 to 1 impulse response but sometimes it's damn close!

Personally I think this feature is amazing!

I was hoping for twin 3.1.... but that's not how they operate unfortunately .. .

Twin 3 update will definitely be coming though. I'm due sending them 100 new presets as soon as I can get the damn work finished! Now is a very good time to send them any feature requests you have for Twin 3. If they aren't too huge of an ask, they may possibly be implemented! I'm afraid my own requests have been a bit on the too big of an ask so I really hope others are sending them feedback too.

I too am hoping for a Twin 3 update, the last support request I sent to them, their answer left me shall we say puzzled...
anyway let me not further go away from the thread title..

What is the likely intro price of this for someone who doesn't own any Fabfilter products?

I was expecting Pro-G 2, but this is even better.

Oh! Thanks for this excellent news. I love twin 3 even if it is limited. That is why I am hopeful on new features.
Where can I request them?
Support?

To me it would be:
FM between oscillators,
new oscillators types (wavetable and spectral/additive),
and some more routing capacities in particular with FX.

And yes, my dream, CLAP format full support....

Lol, I think even Fabfilter would be embarrassed to charge that much.
