Finally gold. Notable features include in-voice unison for super fat voices, and micro tuning support via (soon to be released) MTS-ESP. Also some nice tweaks for those doing their own sample recording.

Note: there is a big change/fix in this release. It was discovered that earlier releases of TX16Wx VST3 had different ID:s on Mac/Win (due misunderstanding of the SDK). This has been corrected in 3.5. For those on Mac with existing projects using the VST3 plug-in, there is a compatibility plug-in with the old ID to ensure these projects can be loaded seamlessly. Once all projects are updated, this helper plug-in can be disabled in settings.

Awesome work!

Indeed! Happy sampling everyone.

Amazing work as always, thank you! However, I am running into an issue.

On my Windows 10 64-bit machine, my saved REAPER project files cannot find the VST3 version of Tx16wx anymore; I suspect this has to do with the ID change, although the changelog states it only effects OSX. It only happens with VST3 though, I have projects that contain both the vst3 and vst2 versions simultaneously, and the VST2 is loading fine. REAPER sees the VST3 just fine in the fx browser, and I can load a new instance, it just does not correlate it with old instances previously loaded in projects. For now, I'll most likely revert to 3.4.0r.

Will the Windows build require the "legacy" version for old project files as well?

Thanks again!

@SeanTypedThis - you are correct, Steinberg SDK biting my proverbial behind yet again. Need the legacy ID version on Windows as well. Now avail in 3.5.0a.

Great vst! loving it so far I am using the new version but have come across a couple crash reports , one is when I click to go back a folder when browsing sf2 patches during playback and the other is when I try to load a recent project with tx16wx in. I'm not sure where to attach the reports?

Post

Nice machine! Thank you.

@ryanrad4d - use something like weshare or similar to upload the dump file. You can either post location here, or PM me. The latter is probably better.

Awesome, thank you!

Somehow, the DOWNLOAD button does not work @ https://www.tx16wx.com/download/

Post

It works, but it is slow and redirects to a download prompt. Google being funny again. I've moved the downloads to local for now. Should be kosher.

Thanks, finally just got a chance to test and the legacy version ID works great! As always, appreciate your attentiveness to bug fixes and beyond since (at least) v2.3!

Did you receive the 2 reports ok ?

Post

I did. Unfortunately I could not make much from them. Only that they where in a state that is not possible. :-)
I added an additional (redundant) check, but I doubt that fixes it. If you can repro it some more, I'd very much like more reports.

I think there is a bug in the output channels, in stead of 12 stereo pairs we now have 24 mono channels , this makes FLStudio put :
out 1 to channels 1 and 2
out 2 to channels 3 and 4
...
out 12 to channels 23 and 24.

Or something like that, reverted back to 3.4.0q and all is well.

Post

@Yeager - wot! FL uses the old VST api:s, and I managed to cause a regression there. Fixed now.
