Modern 80s Kit - How to use it

The original Modern 80's Kit where it all started

System Requirements

Check for compatibility with your system

Compatibility
Halionsonic 7.1.30 and higher FREE required to run the instrument
Mac & PC (with Halionsonic) VST3, AU, AAX hosts (if your DAW doesn’t support Halionsonic or Halion, please do not purchase)
Recommended minimum Screen Resolution: 1920x1080


IMPORTANT: The instrument requires the Free Halionsonic instrument to run into. It’s a library, not an app on its own (just like Kontakt libraries). Please check for Halionsonic compatibility for your system as I cannot refund mistaken purchases. You can easily try out Halionsonic on your system before purchasing if in doubt. Thank you! :)

Frequently asked questions

Do I need Halionsonic to run the instrument?

Yes! You need the free Halionsonic to run all our instruments.

What are the legacy versions of Modern 80s Kit and Claps Vault POP- What happens with those?

What happens to the original Modern 80's Kit and Claps Vault POP?

The original Modern 80's kit and Claps Vault POP are now legacy products (as of September 2024) This means that they are no longer getting updates and are no longer supported.

That being said, their old version will be included in your V2.0 download for people who have older projects and want to ensure compatibility. But at some point, this will stop completely. 

 
Is V1.0 compatible with V2.0 and will older projects using V1.0 load?

No, the Modern 80s Kit/Claps Vault V2.0 are brand-new instruments created from scratch. To make them better and add features, we had to rewrite the code. So projects created with the original Modern 80s Kit will not open with V2.0. That's why the legacy version of the Modern 80s Kit (the original) will be included with the V2.0 download for some time.

 
What should I do with my original Modern 80s Kit and Claps Vault POP? 

I would suggest start using V2.0 from now on. It's much better in every single way. 😀
Make sure you backup the Modern 80s Kit original library if you want to use it in the future as it will not be included in the downloads forever.

You are responsible for keeping the VSTSound file in a safe place in case you want to use it on a new computer etc.

Can I install both V1 and V2 on the same system?

Sure you can! The Modern 80’s Kit V2.0 is an entirely new instrument and won’t interfere with your V1 installation at all. So you can have the new instrument, and retain compatibility with older projects if you wish. 😉
