RML Labs has released SAWStudio (Full and Lite) Version 5.1 and SAWStudioBasic Version 2.3, which are now available for immediate download free to registered users.

SAWStudio (Full and Lite) 5.1

Enhancements:

• A new option has been added to the File Menu called Open SoundFile And Fix Header. This option can be used to fix a corrupted wav file header that was caused by a crash during a recording which then never had a chance to finish updating the header data when the recording was finished. This generally results in wav files with a zero data length value in the header which will not open correctly later. This option will calculate the data length based on the file length and the header length and write in the corrected values. A new peak data file will then be created.
• The Zoom Mixer has been fully integrated into the SAWStudioLite version. Add it into your F-Key views and enjoy the extra power of multiple E-Mixer modules.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed code to adjust the VSTTimeInfo play flag to allow the Melodyne plugin to respond correctly to BuildMix operations.
• Fixed code to properly read Temp group names from Mix Template Files.

SAWStudioBasic 2.3

Enhancements:

• When the program is started for the first time or after the default F-key file has been cleared, F-Keys will now be automatically generated to fit the screen resolution. You can save these as the default F-Keys, or use them as a starting template to be modified and then saved as your own. I recommend you look at each one and consider using them as a guide to creating useful ones of your own.

Eq Plugin Version 3.2:

• Added a new option to the Options menu called Clear Preferences, which clears the preference file and resets the plugin to its default behavior.

Echo Plugin Version 3.2:

• Added a new option to the Options menu called Clear Preferences, which clears the preference file and resets the plugin to its default behavior.

• Fixed the mismatched format version for the demo sample session.
