9.04 Update

Nice! I love the ability to see the spectrum display in the band crossover display, that's so awesome and elegant. And despite saying 'no settings!' you went ahead and added it anyway, ha ha, i knew you would! Thanks

The one thing i'm not keen on is the 'off' for the vertical filters in the EQs, its a separate setting rather than a bypass accessed by a right-click or alt-click. It's a minor thing, but not as elegant to use as right clicking, especially because the slope selector isn't a drop down so you have to cycle through all the slopes before getting to the 'off'. Thanks for getting it in though, and it's not vital to change.

Oh, and i'm also curious about the spectral dynamics change to lookahead. I never used lookahead in it because i didn't find it sounded nice, can you clarify what the issue was and what it sounded like?

Looking forward to investigating those MXXX changes when i get time!

Thanks! And yes, I couldn't help it .

About the on/off - well, the right click is already reserved for default value so... Well, hopefully it's not such a big deal.

The look-ahead issue was causing quite horrible distortion when messing up with resolution (perhaps something more). Basically it's hard to guess what it was doing. Personally I think it's not very useful to use it in this plugin, but who knows...

Thanks for the info.

I agree about look ahead not really being that useful. Would WOULD be useful would be the ability to modify the attack/release times over the frequency spectrum... no idea how on earth you would implement that (transform graph?), but i can imagine that having a pretty big effect on the sound. The slope control helps to shape the tone of the sound, but I often wish I could do more to modify the sound over the different frequencies easier. It's a crazy plug!

Thanks again for your hard work, totally my favorite developer without a doubt!

Just a question out of interest: did you fix something else "inside" MPowerSynth and made the performance better? I am on FL Studio 12 64 bit and everythings works, no question, but sometimes I had a short CPU spike with an audible glitch / click with MPowerSynth (... but also with Synful Orchestra ... so if it will still occur in the future, I suspect FL to have a bug). Best test was a project I started: when I freshly loaded it and a new synth voice started to play, the CPU spike with the click appeared - veeeery short - so no really big deal. It only made me crazy sometimes, because I am paranoid that it could be damaged hardware or another bad driver or something else (btw. I checked my RAM, it works and my audio interface has the newest driver already).

With the new update I loaded the project with the many synths and when a new synth voice starts playing: smooth and very nice. So it came to my mind: did you fixed some "hidden issue" under the hood of MPowerSynth!?

Thank you vectorwarrior!

Actually attack/release per frequency would be possible... just the editing would be rather problematic... We'll see about that. For now I feel like it is not really necessary. Who knows maybe I'll try some experiments .

Tagirijus: Hmmm, well, there are always improvements, a little one was in MPowerSynth, but I don't think it's a big one really. I'd bet you have something in your system - these things are often caused by automatic updaters, antiviruses etc. These things ARE like viruses... grrrrr... But they are often so stealth ...

Thanks for this tip!! I never thought about my antivirus software.
