I bought Pluggo for the first time today and am amazed by these cool
plug-ins! Do you mean they sound better in OSX? Or have they sounded this
great also in Classic?

I went straight from 7.6.3 to 10.2 and spend some time with Windows 98 and
XP for Logic, so I kind of missed the early Pluggo versions.

The sound was the same but they were very very very unstable. 
"buggo" was the name I gave it.

The are more plugs than there used to be.  There were very few synths 
in the early versions and they were not too good.

i've been waiting to use my favorite (with reservations) softsuite for a
long, long time.  i started on os9 (L5) with a g4 450mhz when i first bought
pluggo, and it used a lot of cpu.  synths and the grnaular plugins would
output massive *KKKK* sounds and *kill* the audioinstrument channels they were
on, forcing me to quit and restart logic.  attributing this to my
slowprocessor, i upgraded to a 1.2 ghz powerlogix CPU (and inadvertently to
osX, because the computer refuses to boot into or even install os9, now).

i'm sad to say that the cpu utilization is still egregiously high (i guess
it's not optimized for altivec, bummer), and those horrible overload sounds
can still be heard when i change the parameters of most any synth.  even a
frozen pluggo track had those sounds!

so i guess pluggo i like the subject of that _onion_ article - "totally hot
chick also way psycho".

guess the honeymoon's over.

1.26 ghz g4
896 mb ram
osX.3.2
logic 6.3.3

The CPU usage is indeed higher than it should be.  I don't notice so 
much because I am on a G5 but it is true it ain't the way it aught to 
be in that dept.
