EXCELLENT! THANK YOU! Oh, what a joyful relief. It's amazing how much this encourages me to have some extra fun with MUX, now that you have that Allpass filter in perfect health.

Wonderful!

Didn't want to dedicate the whole topic for my question, so i ask here:
How many effects allow Mulab per track. I see now 6 slots, so i can't add more? Or track strip will become scrollable?

Also is Mulab skinable?

Yup, looks like you can skin the whole thing to your liking. I'm already dinking around with the idea to make that at some point.

I also ran into the effects limit, but must say, since you can tailor your own effects with MUX, there's actually no real limit at all. The slots only help to organize pre and post effects and may well have plenty of slots already with those 6. I'm not 100% on it, but it feels like it should do. Have a look at MUX and send effects, as well. You can make entire racks only for effects and then send your signal from your instrument rack to the effects rack.

And this increase workflow time. Maybe in some update will be possible to inserts more effects by having scrollable strip.

You can route the lowest slot entry to another rack, if you want to stick with racks. Or you can use the Modular Plugin Area. Or you can create complex effect set ups using the MUX. Short answer: no, there's no limit to how many effects you can pass a track through.

A basic user you can use the standard built in effects, but how to know more effects..how to build them and what they sound?
i don't know nothing about the quality of the effects from MUlab.. it is a program what costs 100 USD or 75 Euro..what can you aspect than ?

i am curious about that ..the effect quality and how to build them?

I believe that the effects within MU.LAB have great potential, but for a lack of visual feedback it's very tough to adjust them properly without external measuring gear. On the surface they do sound quite nice, but also very identifiable. I really can't tell, but it seems to me that MU.LAB is approaching a break-through in the near future, which will take its quality to the next level. In some ways it is almost like an approachable "REAKTOR", if you know that piece of software?! If there are currently some limitations inside the code, I think with our support, suggestions and other feedback Jo is going to improve on deeper levels soon enough. But don't get me wrong, the quality right now is quite astonishing. The warmth and depth it can already produce actually do surpass propellerhead's Reason. It's just a bit difficult to get a controlled edge into it right now. Amplitudes are wildcards. The filter should get some alternatives. The current routine feels like a briddle stick of dynamite, one false move and it explodes, hahaha.

There you have it. Just a few tiny steps for Jo and a giant leap for MU.LAB and all of us!

You've noticed that....

To me MuSynth sounds better than Thor! (why insult a deity with an average synth!)
