Presswerk 1.0 Release Candidate 1

[Urs]

Hi all,

revision 3262 is our first release candidate:

Presswerk10RC1Mac.zip

Presswerk10RC1Win.zip

Please let us know what you find, we would like to release it before x-mas.

Note: We've removed unused parameters from the list of automatable parameters. Therefore, if you did host automation with a beta version, you will need to replace the automated parameters. This will most likely be the parameter prior to the one you'll see, i.e. the desired parameter is now the one before that in the list.

Exhaustedly,

- Urs

Deal. Because it pretty much is either or

One vote for Hive. Presswerk is already impressive as it is, and the few minimal things can be ironed out after X-Mas. The X-Mas days are for playing with new toys.

A serious error has occurred inside the plugin "Presswerk".
WaveLab could control it, but is is advisable to save your work and restart WaveLab.

I will test Wavelab 8.5 when I'm in my other studio.

So is it safe for A) beta testers and/or B) those who have purchased to install this RC?

[GeorgeZ]

Yes, however, I'd caution against using it as if it's a V1 release. Things could still change. Unlikely, but not impossible.

We'll look into that. Typically problems in Wavelab have been due to multichannel issues. We had a lot of issues with VST3 and Uhbik, so I'm not quite sure where this is going to go with Presswerk's external side chain feature.

Anyhow, we've just released this build as V1.0 and we'll include Presswerk into our next Latest Builds cycle for fixing typos in the user guide and hopefully for a fix for Wavelab.

And the locked missing icon

Congrats on the release.

A minor annoyance I've discovered, which certainly isn't show-stopping. However if I'm already manipulating a parameter with the mouse (by holding down left mouse button) and press Shift, it doesn't change into fine mode then. You have to press Shift before engaging the knob or whatever. It kind of makes me stumble in my workflow and I would argue it should switch to fine mode whenever Shift is held down, no matter if you've already engaged or not - it's just better UX.

This is in Studio One 2.6.5 (64-bit) on Windows 8.1 x64. It was the case in the previous beta version as well at least.

Out of curiosity, which plugins don't do this?
I guess I always hit shift if I want to fine tune so never ran into this, but I would have thought most plugins in fact exhibited the 'minor annoyance' behaviour.
