Blue Cat Audio updates Blue Cat's MB-7 Mixer 2 to v2.03 with Improved VST Plug-ins Compatibility

Blue Cat Audio has updated Blue Cat's MB-7 Mixer 2, their multiband processing plug-in with VST hosting capabilities, to v2.03.

The update mainly improves compatibility with additional VST plug-ins (including VST Shells), adds support for virtual instruments hosting, tempo synchronization and more (full list below). A free add-on skin is now available for download to streamline the usage of the plug-in in single band (broadband) mode.

The plug-in can be purchased alone or as part of three bundles: Blue Cat's Energy Pack, Blue Cat's MB Dynamix Pack or Blue Cat's All Plug-ins Pack, the complete Blue Cat Audio collection bundle. The special introduction offer (20% off) is still available until September 30th.

Demo versions are available for download on www.bluecataudio.com, in VST, RTAS, AAX, Audio Unit and DirectX formats, for both Mac and PC (32 and 64-bit).

• The plug-in can now host VST instruments.
• Added support for plug-ins bundled into a VST Shell.
• hosted VST plug-ins can now sync with the host's tempo.
