Here is a VSTi that contains 24bit samples that will blow your ears out! The quality
here is unmatched. Containing 32 HI QUALITY BRASS patches,
TPS comes as a complete and non-HD-space-hogging VSTi that gives you all the
sounds you need to create a dynamic and realistic composition-
including falls, stabs, quintets, "fat" sections, and legatos!
All of this at 24 Bits(!)and it doesn't need your whole hard drive to store it's sounds &
presets. Infact, some of the sounds are so lush and hi-quality you may feel as though
you don't have to apply any EQ!

Note: Apparently this is banned freeware. Supposedly, they had to stop distribution
because it uses samples from big name sample CD's and the
graphics were ripped from an RCG:Audio synth.

Play your guitar live and Slayer 2.6 will mangle, smash and contort it to meet your
Slayer 2.6 sound a whole lot better, it is also much more flexible.
You can place any of the sixteen available stomp-box effects in any of the
sixteen available effect slots. When you want to change the order of the effects, just
drag'n'drop. Astonishingly authentic acoustic guitars can be created by altering
the size and material used for the guitar-body.
There are also new playing-aids - two new string-types, two new
amplifiers and two new cabinets.The interface graphics have been
revamped too. Slayer 2 has a completely new, elegant and refreshing look.
The whole look'n'feel makes it much easier and faster to use.

Nexus 2.2 release allows the importing of every Nexus v1.x expansion
or skin through the Nexus2 interface. If you use expansions
released by other groups we strongly suggest you import the
large .nxp file again. Specifically if you have installed the
fxp fix-up executable that was included with some expansion
releases.

Nexus 2.2 release doesn't need patched presets because it performs all
fxp decryption correctly using the proper method :)

*** If you want to be absolutely sure you should install Nexus2
clean then import each expansion and skin available ***

- delete your existing Nexus1 content folder
- uninstall Nexus1
- install Nexus2
- install all expansions and skins
