Blue Cat Audio has released a free update for Blue Cat's PatchWork, its multi-effects processor also capable of hosting third party plug-ins. This new version brings a couple of improvements for macro parameters and MIDI control and can be downloaded from the same location as the original full version (link received by email upon purchase).
New in PatchWork 2.66:
- Drag and drop macro parameters to change order / insert / copy.
- Macro Parameters & params assignments can now be saved and copied/pasted.
- The "Remove" macro command now removes the currently selected macro parameter instead of the last one.
- Macro LEARN mode is now disabled automatically when the Params Map Editor is closed.
- AAX plug-in now reports the recording status to hosted plug-ins (in recent versions of Pro Tools that support it).
- Synchronize multiple MIDI controllers: when "all channels" (0) is used for MIDI input control and "send MIDI events when parameters values change" is active, the plug-in now sends MIDI events to all other channels.
- Updated parameters layout for GUI-less plug-ins to accommodate plug-ins with multiple parameters.
- GUI-less plug-ins generic editor now follows PatchWork's zoom level.
- Improved plug-in loading time.
- Fixed a crash when opening the editor of a VST2 GUI-less plug-in that uses non-unicode encoding in its parameters (piz-MIDI plug-ins).
- Fixed plug-in slots display issue on Mac OS 10.9.
- Fixed plug-in slot menu issues when loading plug-ins with more than 22380 parameters on Windows.
Price: 99 EUR or $99.
