How can I do that if my machine is offline? That 'download noises' message that keeps on showing up is pretty annoying. Please, either add an option for it to never show up again or better yet, provide the noises as a download for offline use.

In Shaperbox 2, this was very easy to figure out, you could click a shaper to only see presets for that specific shaper. This is incredibly useful because not every preset needs a noise added to it, for whatever reason. This has to still be an option, right? I'm aware of the color selector to the right of the search that includes presets that use the specific shaper you're looking for. But i want presets that use that shaper, and that shaper only. Sorry again if I'm just being dumb, either way I have high hopes for Shaperbox 3!
Thanks for the feedback on the new preset browser. We are looking into expanding the per-Shaper filtering options, so there's a good chance this will happen in an update.
Please do, would really make this perfect. And thanks Lee!

Only possible addition I’d like to see currently is per-Shaper audio triggers/thresholds/frequency ranges so that you could trigger different effects for kicks, snares and hats for example.
We don’t allow this as we want to keep CPU usage reasonable. Interesting concept, though! And you can always add another ShaperBox instance to achieve these kind of effects.

Not sure if that's what you're asking, but maybe it is..: You can switch waves via MIDI note, so C# could trigger another wave than D for example (activate "MIDI Switch" in the bottom right of the UI).

Agree - I just got the bundle after upgrading to Shaperbox 3 and they are good devices but don't feel as slick.

That should not happen - once you choose "Hide demos", Shapers that you don't own won't be shown any more. The setting will only reset with .x updates. If that's not the case for you, then something is odd.. could you please contact us at contact@cableguys.com then? Thanks!

I always think it would be a shame to reach perfection first time round.

Uff! Also purchased Shaperbox2 from Pluginboutique. Since they don't offer upgrade, I will have to pass this one.
Anyway I created so many presets with 2 and I think, I can not transfer them to 3 and frankly speaking I don't like the sound of the additional phaser and flanger and don't need a sidechain option.
Shaperbox is a a great plugin :)

Are you sure you cannot upgrade a SB2 bought at Plugin Boutique to a SB3 in CableGuys shop?
It could work actually... as long as the SB2 comes out as registered at their shop, which should be...

And after I bought Shaperbox 3, I got an unresistable offer to complete my collection… That way I got to find Curve 2, a completely underrated synth…
It need its own thread in the instruments forum… - I just made one…

Thanks for the reminder!!
Did the same and am now proud owner of the whole cableguys catalog!! :tu:

@Cableguys: Please please please give Curve 2 a bit of love and make it at least useable on HDPI systems...
This thing has such a nice fat sound...and such a tiny little GUI... 8)

When ShaperBox 3 is open and I hit play, the play head lags and freezes/unfreezes from time to time. It's only visual though.
I activated OpenGL for ShaperBox and it kind of got rid of it but there is still a little amount of delay it creates within Studio One visually.

The same thing was happening on ShaperBox 2, too.
Anyone?
