So.. How are you liking Retrologue 2 so far ?

Virtual instruments Retrologue

I see.

Installing 3rd party sounds for Retrologue 2 is easy.

If you are using macOS you have to copy your presets here, preferably inside a folder:
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Audio/Presets/Steinberg Media Technologies/Retrologue folder
If you are on Windows, this is the path:
\Documents\VST3 Presets\Steinberg Media Technologies\Retrologue

The functionality of the Mediabay-based browser is good, you can load and try sounds quickly, search by tags - all based on database which is fast, but yes, there are problems with this MediaBay-based thing:

  1. Sometimes the presets don’t show up immediately. To resolve this you have to re-scan your presets folder in Mediabay and restart your DAW.
  2. I admit, this Mediabay for Retrologue is not as snappy as it should be! Synth preset loading should be nearly instantaneous, but it requires a 1-2 seconds or sometime more to load these sounds.
