Hi there!!
I don't know how popular this idea is, but wouldn't it be a simple matter for TC to make stand alone versions of the TC Powercore effects that do not require the PCI Card or Firewire Interface to operate?
My PCI Board and Firewire Interface (yes I have both) will not last forever, and support is discontinued. I would happily pay for stand alone versions of the original plugins!!
I especially love MegaReverb, ClassicVerb, and MasterX and would love to be able to use them forever. If you feel the same way, please post your agreement below, and let's see if we can get TC to do this!!
