Original Release Dates of all Scope instrument plugins from 1999-2009

Hello,

I just wanted to know something. The Creamware Pulsar and its instrument plugins (which consist of Bluesynth, EZSynth, Miniscope, FMOne and the Modular Synth) were originally released in December 1998, and since then there have been a LOT of instrument plugins that came afterwards, such as Inferno, U Know 007, Minimax, Vectron, etc.

There were even a lot of third-party DSP plugins that worked with Scope as well, such as Red Dwarf (Smeg me, what a clever name!), Debbie Droner, and Synchrome, but does anybody here have a list of all of the Scope instrument plugins (made by Scope and third party companies) that were released between 1999 and 2009? And do you know when they were originally released as well?

Thank you for reading!

That site is mainly just for custom presets of the Modular synth. I am looking for the original release dates of plugins such as Poison, Lightwave, Prisma, Sixstring, Synchrome, etc.

IIRC Debbie Droner was Oceanswift so much later than 2009

It listed the release dates for Scope 3.0 and Scope 3.1. Not sure if those synths you listed coincided with the release but that might very well be your clue. Write to support. I'm sure Gary has nothing better to do with his time. :D :D

Is the date not on the properties for the various dev files. Go to Scope device folder, right click on the respective .dev file and select properties, then look for Date Created, that may give you some idea. Worth a shot. :)

Screen shot from my Pulsar 3 CD - which is dated 2001. So the following are all likely pre 2001

I know at least Inferno and Bluesynth were 2.x, I never ran v2 locally (in my home) but we first used Scope for a live production environment doing early video streaming on the web with daily content, at Play, Inc. I didn't own the cards until about 2001 myself, we had them in use there for a few years longer thanks to the excellent work someone did at ensuring California GC's were pushing it.
