KSM Current Version - 0.3.0.1 (15th July 2025)
2024-03-16T12:00:14+00:00
I've just uploaded KSM 0.3.0.1 (15th July 2025).
You can download directly from www.kvraudio.com/kvr-studio-manager or if you launch KSM it'll offer the download automatically.
Release Notes
Version 0.3.0.1 (Public Beta) :
Fixed "Unknown error communicating with KVR server" when syncing if multiple formats were selected in the Formats menu.
Known Issues :
Some CLAP plugins do not report a version number (DISTRHO-based?).
Duplicate Plugin Report: May display some false positives.
Acon Digital VST3 on macOS may fail to scan.
Airwindows Consolidated AU version number misreported as 8.x.x instead of 1.2024.x
Some older AU plugins display the developer name as random strings of data - e.g. "1.0.7, Copyright 2005 Native-Instruments", "WAVESTATION version 1.2.1, Copyright 2004 - 2006 Korg Inc. All rights reserved.", etc.
Version 0.3.0.0 (Public Beta) :
Kontakt Library Support (Kontakt Player *.nicnt)
Added a “Don’t ask again” option to the “Leaving KVR website” dialog. The option can be reset in the Settings dialog.
CLAP File Search Paths added to Settings for those that use a non-standard CLAP plugin folder.
CLAP plugins now correctly identified as Instrument or Effect.
Fixed: If a CLAP plugin did not report a version number it was not removed from the plugin list if it was removed from the folder. It is now removed as expected.
Fixed issue with Unicode characters in filenames causing plugin to fail to scan.
Improved reporting of timeouts in scan report.
GUI Tweaks:
Statuses now switch on single click (Shift + Click to select multiple).
Hidden & Excluded selectors moved to a dedicated menu.
Formats menu and Hidden & Excluded menus repositioned.
Formats menu remembers selected formats.
Squashed text eradicated.
Miscellaneous other tweaks.
Version 0.2.2.0 (Public Beta) :
Network timeout increased - this should enable users with a very large number of plugins or slower connections to sync successfully.
Substantially reduced size of network / data response when syncing.
Improved handling of network errors.
Miscellaneous fixes and optimisations.
Version 0.2.1.1 (Public Beta) :
Fixed potential crash when clearing the plugin list on macOS.
Fixed potential crash when running plugin scanners.
Fixed white background on transparent developer logos.
Version 0.2.1.0 (Public Beta) :
VST3 categories are now displayed correctly (KSM will clear your plugin list and force a full rescan upon first use of 0.2.1.0).
If a file fails to scan you can now right click on the plugin in the scan error report and choose "Show Log" to see what the problem is (although it may be opaque...).
The Scan Error Log can be saved as text file.
Miscellaneous fixes and internal changes to support upcoming 0.3.0.0.
Version 0.2.0.0 (Public Beta) :
Rearchitected VST3 scanner:
Parallel scanning.
10 second process timeout by default. Timeout can be changed in Options > Settings
Automatic retry for failed plugins (will retry once).
Should now find some plugins it didn't find before.
Fixed: Plugins that hang or crash KSM now scan correctly or fail gracefully.
Fixed: Updated plugins not detected on scan.
Fixed: Folders and Plug-ins with same name misidentified as duplicates.
Fixed: Saved password not updated if password changed (Mac).
Miscellaneous internal changes.
Version 0.1.9.3 / 0.1.9.2 (Public Beta) :
0.1.9.3: CLAP scanner now detects DISTRHO, Fabfilter, u-he and more.
Rearchitected CLAP scanner (now out of process; many fixes; shouldn't crash KSM).
Rearchitected AU scanner (Should now find plugins it didn't find before; more accurate version reporting).
Improved background loading / downloading of brand images. This should fix UI hangs / freezes particularly with large plugin lists.
Added Status Info hover tooltip for "Unsupported" plugins to provide more information about the reason they are unsupported (if specified).
Miscellaneous internal changes.
Version 0.1.7.2 (Public Beta) :
HTTP logging is now off by default to save space (enable from Options > Settings > Log HTTP requests ).
Why? Each time KSM is synced with KVR it logs the entire request and response which can result in KSM's log file increasing in size unnecessarily, particularly if the user has many plugins installed. Making it optional means it can be enabled for troubleshooting but be left off by default.
Improved CLAP scanner (fixes reported crashing issues).
Improved error message displayed if the KVR server returns a response that can't be interpreted by KSM.
Scan errors are (partially) logged to the application log.
Miscellaneous internal changes.
User access issues resolved (password verification and firewall block issues).
