Impressions of MU.LAB 2.6.2 on MacOS X

[TheGuysanIdiot]

[robenestobenz] - Yes I see what you mean now.

I usually move the track sliders with the wheel mouse and the mouse pointer always stays stationary so I have not noticed M2 odd behavior of the track sliders.

OK so 1:1 should work like this. Left click on slider handle and move up and down and the mouse pointer should stay on the slider handle but with M2 the mouse pointer zooms off elsewhere. I checked this with other DAWs and they do 1:1 on sliders. I see now.

And the fine control is a bit too fine.

Light dawns.

Ta!

Plugins
The linear phase graphical equalizer vst on apulsoft doesn't display its GUI.
Very long parameter lists shoot through the bottom of the screen.

Then i assume it's a VST 2.3 plugin (or even older) on a MacIntel.
On MacIntel, only VST 2.4 plugins show their proper GUI.
Essentially that's a decission of Apple/Steinberg.

VST 2.3 on PowerPC, but the effect is the same.

I tried the current apEQ on a MacIntel and it works fine.

I also see it's a 2.4 plugin.

Could it be you have an older version?

The folder where presets etc. are saved could be made configurable by the user.

MU.LAB's Library folder is configurable:

Edit menu -> Preferences -> Choose Library Folder

Oops, sorry, I didn't mean the apEQ but the free linear phase equalizer from their free ports. That one is from 2005.

Ah, ok. But where is this preference itself stored? I mean, I can't just put the MULAB folder into /Applications and expect other users on the machine to be able to use it, they don't have write access to /Applications/MULAB after all. In a multi-user environment, each one would need their own copy. (That's not necessarily a bad thing, just not the standard behavior on OS X)
