Replacement for Volume Logic

Back when we were all running Panther and then Tiger, I bought an application called Volume Logic (no longer available from the publisher) that processes music in iTunes real-time. There was a hack using a component of iWow to get the app working under Leopard, and that worked fine, but the introduction of Snow Leopard zapped that. I am not a professional musician nor do I work in a music studio and I have a limited budget for speakers, etc. So I found Volume Logic great in combination with my low-cost sub-woofer and satellite speakers. Is there a comparative Snow Leopard compatible software available?
Or a workaround to get olume Logic working under SL?

you can also use something like audiohijack and monitor the sound through any number of volume logic type plug ins, like multiband compression. or go crazy with reverb and flange!
but the replies above me are also great solutions.

To find your existing iTea file, do the following...

Go to MacintoshHD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL. Your VolumeLogic.plugin file should be there. Right-click on it and select 'Show Package Contents'. Go to Contents/MacOS and you should see the iTea file.

Drag the attached iTea into the MacOS folder and authenticate to replace the existing one.

Let me know if this makes your day ;-)

PS. iTunes crashes if you try to run it in 32-bit mode with the old iTea file in place. Once the new iTea file is in place, iTunes will crash if you try to run it in 64-bit mode!!! However, VolumeLogic works... so who gives a damn??

GREAT
Thank you fixmymac : I used VL with iTunes 11 (32 bits) and Volume Logic with Snow Leopard. Yesterday i decided to install Mac OS Lion and of course VL couldn't work until your very precious help.
Sorry for my bad english and thank you again : Last night fixmymac saved my music

I have a question : when i buy a new mac, will it go on working in Mountain Lion ?
Can iTunes 11 work on a 32 bits mode ?

Hello there

I've tried to re-install VL but I've got the message "This installer requires admin privileges to run" but I'm the admin on my computer. (OS 10.8)

Anybody can help me please ?

Hi,

Try right-clicking on the installer package and selecting 'Show Package Contents'. Somewhere within the folder structure you will find the 'VolumeLogic.plugin' file. Move this file to Macintosh HD>Library>Audio>Plug-Ins>HAL.

Set iTunes to open in 32-bit mode and then launch it.

You may hit problems with activation.

Hi,

iTunes 11 can still be run in 32-bit mode in Mountain Lion and VL works fine if you follow my guide.
