I was able to restore previous purchases in 1.6.9. When I add the XY pad it still says upgrade to premium. Please remind me, do I have to purchase it separately or being an early adopter it is included. TX

Hi Laudmusic,
So basically, we have restored the possibility to purchase XY pad and other add-ons for early supporters. The grid object add-ons are included for the new subscription model. Making it free for all early supporters would be totally unfair for other early adopters who purchased the add-ons.

Ok, understood and makes sense.

How do we buy the XY pad and other add-ons as early supporters now? (1.7.4)
In the Presets, when looking for it, I cannot find them. I only find application specific packs.
Thank you
