Thanks! I'll check it out this weekend.

Thanks for the update! May we know what to be expected from the new experimental engine compared to the hybrid? better PDC?

Haven't tested it intensively, but the first thing I noticed is, the master level meter still not displaying anything if my output channel is other than output 1-2 . but the click track is working as intended now 🥳

Still the same with the Waves Plugins GUIs. Mirrored, Scrambled ... unusable
But... who cares

I don't think there is anything we can do about this. Waves is going to need to release an update for hosts built against the latest macOS SDK.

11.2.22 is telling me it can't load the Master Mix plugin; so does 11.2.18 now that I go back and check.

First run of the new beta: no more glitching for me.
Exciting!

Engine modes other than Real Time do seem to have more trouble and crackle sooner running at 96k w/128 buffer on a Focusrite.

11.2.22 is telling me it can't load the Master Mix plugin; so does 11.2.18 now that I go back and check.

The built in version, or the VST version? I think I broke this sometime after 11.1.0 and fixed it in 11.2.14. So if you created a new edit with master mix built in somewhere in that time frame, you'll need to re-add the plugin.

Or edit the edit file and change it to `filename="Master Mix"`

Solved as described.

On the other hand, the issue with 4OSC instances not restoring settings reliably is still present.

Also, loading my current project caused a CPU lockup¹ (with significant time in the kernel according to my desktop widget) — to the point that not even the Linux REISUB trick worked, and I had to hit the power button — twice. (Actually three times, but by then I was taking the precaution to start from the command line with 'nice', which allowed just enough responsiveness that I could Ctrl-Alt-Del reboot out of it.)

¹ Hybrid mode. Switched to Hybrid Semaphore to see what happens.

I've never been able to reproduce this. Any edits / screen captures etc would be very helpful to reproduce.

Cursor drag is a welcome option, thank you.

I don't know if this is new, but I just discovered that even with 'click to locate cursor' selected you can select clips without locating the cursor by holding the mouse click ever so slightly longer, very useful and basically puts us in true legacy mode (yes I know you can select the top of the clip also).

I didn't see a note about it, but it seems like the Export and Render folder assignments are fixed right?

I can't reproduce this too. Load some preset, modify it, save as. Load new OSC4 instance, load modified preset, they are the same.

Or I don't get your issue?
