Sonoma Wire Works updates RiffWorks to v2.5

Sonoma Wire Works has released a free update for RiffWorks Standard recording software (Windows & Mac). RiffWorks Standard v2.5 offers new features like export, 32-bit recording and 32-bit mix.

RiffWorks Standard v2.5 Improvements Include:

• New Export Options:
  • Export Current Riff - Export all the layers of the currently selected Riff as Acidized .wav files including the InstantDrummer and Metronome. Files can then be imported into any DAW.
  • Export All Riffs - Exports all riffs from a song as .wav files into separate file folders.
  • Sonoma 7 VST Plugin - The 7 effects from RiffWorks as a VST Plugin. Effects presets are saved during export for access from the Sonoma 7 VST plugin in your DAW. This plugin is available for free to all RiffWorks Standard users as a separate download.
• 32-bit Recording and Export - RiffWorks has always done all processing at 32-bit, but audio files were saved as 16-bit for space and performance reasons. 32-bit file recording is now available as an option in the Audio Setup Window. 32-bit provides the highest recording quality, but takes twice as much disk space.
• 32-bit Mix - The option to mix a 32-bit floating point .wav file allows users to take their final mix into a mastering program at the highest quality.
• Improved Master Output Compressor/Limiter* - All new program-dependent master output compressor/limiter increases overall output level and eliminates pumping and breathing at high output levels.
• Improved Compressor* - New algorithm improves compressors on Layers and Riffs.
• FourTrack Import* - RiffWorks Standard and RiffWorks T4 v2.5 automatically detect and import tracks, complete with gain and pan settings, directly from the FourTrack iPhone application using Bonjour on Mac and Windows.
• RiffLink Progress Bar* - The RiffLink online collaboration feature built into RiffWorks now includes a progress bar during song loading.
• Bug fixes:
  • RiffLink performance*
  • Sound improvements*
  • RiffEffects on SongLayers*
  • Export/Import SongLayers*

* Improvements marked with an asterisk are also included in the RiffWorks T4 v2.5 (free edition) update.
