Indeed the remaining VST issues are being fixed for the next patch.
A demo is coming soon but I have no exact date unfortunately. If you have an eLicenser dongle I think you can try it for 24 hours (until there's a proper trial).

Patch 2 has just been released, and adds several popular requests such as Unmix Stems: Sensitivity or Export Stems. It also fixes several issues (including the remaining VST3 issues).

Check out the patch notes.

The patch can be downloaded from here.

Just tried the new patch with some Melda plugins and it's looking good!
Congrats! Time to get my acousmatic on!

Being able to separate your audio spectral into different layers and process them differently is amazing. I can't believe I only found out about this now. The competitive crossgrade from RX was a nice gesture.

EDIT: divide and conquer? bad joke, divide; spectralayers...

After reading that SL7 Pro was stable now I upgrade from V6, first test with a simple darabuka loop de-mixing the transients (which works and sounds great) and soon afterwards BAM, crashfest.

Yeah, it's not stable - duplicating layers and then deleting single components from a layer causes crashes, here is another one.

i didn't experienced crashes, but i did not do what you did.... not quite true, but i am on windows.

the best place that developer can see this reports, on the spectralayers pro 7 forum of steinberg, you can pm also the developer there. the fastest way to get feedback and a fix.

So the stem separation didn't crash on me and sounds very convincing, totally up to par with RX8 Advanced. In the video below the default setting for the component separation was used.

I only wish more developers would offer vst3 versions of their plug-ins as SL7 only allows vst3 plug-ins for processing. Decomposing audio and then processing the individual components with different effects yields amazing results and the layer-based workflow in SL7 is pretty inspiring. Could we have automation for basic parameters like volume? Then stems or components could be mixed over time, as it is now one has to export the individual stems and mix them inside a DAW.

The workflow to roundtrip export to Wavelab is a good enough work around for me.
