6. Added 'Add New Region' menu to sample editor to be able to add existing sample files as new regions

7. Added fade in/fade out of audio during preset loads

There are also critical bug fixes in this update. We urge everything to download and install this update:

1. Preset preview playback calculation happens in real-time audio thread, causing serious dropouts
2. Velocity glide doesn't work correctly for mono legato layers
3. SynthMaster 2 presets older than version 2.7 sound different compared to SynthMaster 2
4. When a layer is duplicated, the name of the new layer is not updated, it stays the same as the source layer
5. When a modulation source is deleted, the first modulation source is selected, but the mod matrix is not refreshed to show targets for that source.
6. When loading SynthMaster 2 presets, unused modulation sources should be removed
7. Removing the last module in the routing view might crash SynthMaster 3
8. Pressing Previos button to move to the previous preset might incorrectly move to the end of the presets list
9. Deleting a modulation source and then undoing that edit doesn't restore the previous state correctly
10.After running SynthMaster 3 / SynthMaster 3 Player for more than a couple of hours, the synth stops processing MIDI messages

A tiny glitch of the UI:
When you duplicate an OSC it gets a new number, but this doesn't happens when you duplicate a Layer:
Feature request: allow the user to rename Layers and maybe OSC and MODs.

Fixed in v3.4.9

Feature request: allow the user to rename Layers and maybe OSC and MODs.

This feature ALREADY exists

This screenshot show the mod matrix for LFO1.

If i delete it SM3 picks Env1 (as the first in the mod list, i guess):

but the Mod Matrix is updated only when I click on the Env1 tab again:

I think it should be updated automatically.

Fixed in v3.4.9

some presets have all the MOD "instantiated", but very few of them are actually modding something.

Also, a "purge" menu command that deletes all the unused ones could be useful.

Fixed in v3.4.9

Ive given up on all of the Synthmaster synths 1 2 and 3. I never turn my pc or cubase off and when I go back to it in the morning after being left on overnight, synthmaster has just stopped working. Stopped responding to midi?

Fixed in v3.4.9

Hi there

We are very close to releasing SynthMaster 3 Player iOS. Once the final UI skin is complete, we will release it. Here's the prototype beta skin:

It is available on TestFlight at: https://testflight.apple.com/join/dn3rexe8

Once we release the Player, we will start working on SynthMaster 3.5. I am hoping to make further UI/UX improvement with this version, and it will be released on iOS as well hopefuly 2026 Q4.

Please do not forget the cleaning up of the presets with clear categories.

I haven't forgotten that, I know that this is a very crucial issue

I still seem to need Synthmaster 2 on my system just so I can access NKS versions of the addon libraries - is that still planned? Also on my system the locations of things like NKS files and presets seems to have changed from Synthmaster 2 even though the Synthmaster 3 installer still creates these folders - for example /Users/username/Documents/SynthMaster3/Presets is empty for me whereas in Synthmaster 2 it is full of the expansions - it's all a bit confusing and I really would like to not need Synthmaster 2 any more

We don't store any SynthMaster 2 expansions under /users/username/documents/synthmaster/presets folder. You have the latest SynthMaster 2 version, right? SynthMaster 2 stores expansions and NKS content under: /users/shared/synthmaster, and similarly SynthMaster One stores expansions and NKS content under: /users/shared/synthmasterone

Ok but still confused - looking in the Shared folders it seems under 'Synthmaster' (presumably 2) most of the expansions are in the presets folder - but under Synthmaster 3/presets - there are a further 8 expansions listed (in 2 file formats, .smar and .smpb) - like I said I really want everything to be stored with Synthmaster 3 so I can delete the now defunct Synthmaster 2
