Numerology SE Audio Unit

What was originally going to be a separate product called the Five12 Sequencer Kit will now be the “Numerology SE Audio Unit”, and will be included as a part of Numerology SE. So if you have (or purchase) a license to Numerology 3 Standard Edition, you will get access to an Audio Unit version for no extra charge. And, as before, if you have a pro license, you will get the pro version of the plugin.

There will be a small price increase for Numerology 3 SE. The final price will be $129 (up from $119). The “early bird” upgrade price will remain at $34 for now, but will bump up a bit sometime after the public version of the SE plugin is made available. Also the SE plugin will have a more limited feature set than the Pro plugin. The limitations boil down to three things:

No Prototype Modules: The AU (just like the App) will come with a large stack library that will include all the most common module combinations (MonoNote, MonoNote + Audio Sample, DrumSeq, DrumSeq + DrumKit), several “discrete sequencing” setups, and lots of other things. And, of course, you can build new things in the standalone version and load them in to the AU via the stack library.
No Routing page: Since everything is loaded via the stack library, routing access isn’t necessary.
Modules from the Pro version will load and work properly, but will be locked into the minimized state—just as with pro modules loaded into Numerology 3 SE in the standalone version.

A release schedule for the AU plug-ins is not yet available.
