UVI Falcon - v4 = 2026 released - rumors, ads, praise, kindergarden, auto-sampling and off-topic inside!

Is there any update on the list of supported SFZ opcodes since the last post about it (I think back in 2019)?

Anybody managed to take advantage of the two for one expansions deal? Website says that the discount gets applied automatically in the cart but that's not what happens for me.

Yup, five minutes ago. And the two-for-one discount stacked with the $100 voucher with Falcon3, so 6 expansions for £15.

One other (nice) thing to be aware of is that at the start of the new year UVI sends you a money off voucher, its value proportional to what you spent directly with them the previous year. I don’t think buying things off third party sites count towards it, but it’s not a massive amount, maybe 10% of what you spent or maybe less.

Unlike IK, I was able to spend my UVI voucher on things discounted for being on sale or on intro and no “no more than 30% of cost” type bs limitations.

UVI Portal refuses to load the factory presets. When installing Falcon 3, my external disc was not connected, I got an error message it could not install the factory presets for missing space. But now the external drive is connected, it still does not install it, I get a 0 spinning ring forever. No error message, just nothing happens.
I guess I need to delete some preferences. If someone came across the same and knows a solution, I'd appreciate it...

Me too.
So I downloaded Falcon Factory rev2 from here.

I took the Falcon Factory rev2.ufs from the downloaded rar file and put it in
"C:\Program Files\UltimateSoundBank\UVISoundBanks".

Thanks a lot, there is no direct link to this page on UVI.net.

[Fleer]

Did everyone just delete the OG Factory.ufs after all?

[dayjob]

Thanks a lot, there is no direct link to this page on UVI.net.

if you click "My UVI" - "Manage my products" - then scroll down.. it's below the box that has all the info about UVI Portal. it's very small.

For me in Portal, the download/install link for the Factory library Rev2 wasn't working—the button didn't do anything when pressed. So I had to download it on their site also.

Then again Logic still can't receive or send MIDI from an AU which is by proxy holding that back for Audio Units in general.

Anyone know if the new midi out feature (to control an external synth with the falcon sequencers) works in logic pro x? and if yes, how?

This has been fixed on Sunday. Sorry about that. You need to quit/relaunch Portal though

Hello, please can you fix the Factory Rev2 MPE presets, a whole bunch of them aren't working.

First I've thought to jump on current Falcon sale, but as there is no trial, I've decided to go with subscription for 24 Euro per month with access to all UVI products, which you can cancel or pause at any time. So far I'm pretty impressed with the quality of soundware and Falcon banks and what Falcon as synth offers by itself. I can understand that UI can be a bit strange for "younger" users used to drag-and-drop/modulate, but it is not at all as difficult. The layout can be on first sight a bit complicated, but after watching some tutorials and walking through manual(why people hate so much reading manuals???) there are so many options to switch pretty fast between different sections, edit things, modulate, ... . I would not definitely recommend it as a first synth for someone who is just starting and has no clue about synthesis, pipelines, ... , but as the second one absolutely.

Just been playing with the MIDI out. Didn't RTFM and dived in so got what I deserved initially, nothing or it just echoed a key pressed, but then found that I could get MIDI out successfully from a layer in Quadra by going into Tree view, right clicking on say Layer A and choosing Add Event Processor > MIDI Out.
...
Got this output when using Percussion Factory and adding a MIDI Out on each slot so Slot 1 -> MIDI channel 1, Slot 2 -> MIDI channel 2 etc.

I Can not get this to work in Bitwig (5.0.11). I can output midi but everything is always on channel 1, no matter what I set the MIDI out to. Tried with Percussion Factory (slots) and also from scratch with a new patch with layers. I have tried messing with settings here and there but no luck...
I have no problem with other plugins outputting multiple channels like HY-RPE.
