What he said. I've enjoyed and appreciate these...now I need to take a look at the pay stuff...but that was the draw wasn't it, sneaky
Well, yes and no, recently, Gumroad decided to remove support for PayPal payments and donations. A substantial part of my income comes from donations for all the freebies I release. Since PayPal's removal from Gumroad, my income has dropped substantially.
Sometimes, some of these free plugins will make more money in donations than commercial ones (Room Piano v3, for instance).
With the removal of PayPal from Gumroad, I had to move everything to Payhip in order to be able to accept PayPal payments and donations. The process is so long that I haven't finished yet, because I also had to update all my 90+ plugin catalog to fix some bugs in Ableton Live.
Despite all of this, I hope to be able to release as many free plugins as commercial ones. That's the goal, and thanks to some generous donors, it will hopefully be possible.
