Blue Cat Audio has released a free update for Blue Cat's Late Replies, its creative delay and reverb plug-in capable of loading third party plug-ins anywhere in its signal chain.
This new version adds the ability to customize the colors of all plug-ins slots individually, and brings the ability to oversample processing for each plug-ins (up to 16x). It is now possible to mix Late Replies's own parameters with hosted plug-ins' parameters in macros, and they can be reordered easily thanks to copy/paste and drag and drop support in the editor. The full list of new features and fixes is available below.
