Zebra 3 final final beta 21764 April 14

I added Showcase to hidden folders, restarted the plugin, but still the presets from showcase are displayed by default. Maybe I have some kind of bug? Windows 10. Presonus studio one 6.6.4. VST3

Yeah, I don't know how exactly it's meant to be. Mine always starts in the user folder.

It's just very convenient to have a number of your own "init" presets at hand when launching the plugin, so that you don't have to switch to the presets tab every time you launch the plugin.
I would really like to implement this in zebra3 as well.

In the oscillator effects, in the "window" effect, the first oscillator says "polarity", but in oscillators 2-4 it says "bipolar". Also, in the "Spectral Focus" effect, the "Overtone Set" label in the 3rd oscillator is slightly higher than in the other oscillators.

I like the "Tips&Tricks" section of the manual, please add more to it in the future.

One small other question, when editing a usage description, i want to use a neat layout, for example
MW = morph
Ctrl A = fx
Ctrl B = vibrato
AT = modulation depth
etc.

But i can't find a way to implement 'start a new line' i can use spacebar presses so it looks ok in the window, but then it looks weird in the preset browser righthand column. If i press 'enter' the window will just close and save

User guide, page 9:
"For line breaks in the editable fields, use SHIFT+Return"

But of course! The very first sentence in the Tips & Tricks chapter says: "This chapter will be greatly expanded in the future versions."

I apparently don't have the patience to read intros.
Anyways, I think those little tricks are one of the best and fun ways to learn a complex synth like Zebra3.

That's why we committed to maintaining Zebra 2 in the form of Zebra Legacy, to uphold the legacy and at the same time start fresh with Zebra 3. So we won't be porting anything over beyond a few favourites that we reinterpret.

Awesome, good to know.

If you mention one or two Zebra2 patches you'd like reinterpreted, I take requests.

One of your own: Instability....

I really like the improvements that were brought with the latest versions. After testing the RC version, I noticed that there is a jittering sound when you switch between program changes. In the first betas I couldn’t notice this issue, but with the latest RC version. It was not listed in the “known issues” list. Is there a way to overcome it?

It's possibly a stall between preset change and audio thread that as introduced to prevent certain crashes. These stalls should be very minimal, but if they lead to drop out we will have to keep an eye on them and think of alternatives for future updates.

EDIT: Posted the issue in the new thread as it's still relevant.

I'll keep that in mind. It might actually be good for me to port some myself first, just to wrap my head around Z3 and what's changed.
