BBE Sound Sonic Sweet: Optimized - User Manual
Nomad Factory is proud to re-introduce 4 newly optimized plug-ins that bring the legendary BBE Sound into your
latest productions. Sonic Sweet: Optimized has been completely rebuilt from the ground up to be compatible with
AAX and Pro Tools 11. Additionally, the bundle has been fully tested for the latest operating systems: both Mac os
10.10 (Yosemite) and Windows 8. With the same great tone and ease of use you’ve come to expect, Sonic Sweet:
Optimized brings the classic sound of BBE into the future.
All Supported Formats:
Mac: AU, AAX, RTAS, AS, VST
PC: RTAS, AS, AAX, VST
(Only RTAS is 32bit, AAX requires Pro Tools 10.3.5 or Pro Tools 11)
***IMPORTANT NOTE***
Because the Sonic Sweet: Optimized was completely rebuilt for AAX format, it is NOT compatible with previous
versions of Sonic Sweet. Any sessions with a previous version of Sonic Sweet loaded into it must continue to use the
old versions of the plug-ins.
