FabFilter Updates All Plug-Ins with Graphics Acceleration

FabFilter has updated all

FabFilter plug-ins to add GPU-powered graphics acceleration. In

addition, FabFilter Twin 2, Timeless 2 and Volcano 2 now feature the

collapsible modulation section that was first introduced in FabFilter

Saturn. All plug-ins have also received bug fixes and various other

improvements.

Highlights in this update:

- All plug-ins now contain the GPU-powered graphics acceleration

introduced in FabFilter Pro-DS, ensuring ultra-smooth animation while

leaving the main CPU free to do audio processing.

- FabFilter Twin 2, Timeless 2 and Volcano 2 have a new Modulation

button to easily show and hide the modulation section. By default, the

modulation section is hidden to make the plug-in less intimidating at

first, but you can easily look 'under the hood' when you want to tweak a

preset or design your own.

- FabFilter Twin 2 displays a new keyboard section in the interface when

the modulation section is hidden. The component display at the top of

the interface contains a new Main EG component button, letting you

easily tweak EG parameters when browsing presets.

- When multiple bands are selected in FabFilter Pro-Q, the Frequency,

Gain and Q knobs will now let you change parameters of the selected

bands while preserving their relative differences. Double-clicking a

knob still lets you set all bands to the same value.

- Updated all VST 3 plug-ins to support new features in VST 3.5, such as

a host-provided right-click menu for each parameter in the interface.

Steinberg's CMC-AI controller is now also supported.

- Added mouse wheel support to buttons with pop-up menus, such as the

distortion style button in FabFilter Saturn.

- Added Options > Open Other Preset option to the presets menu, making

it easy to open a preset that's not in the regular presets folder.

- FabFilter Twin 2 and Timeless 2 now remember which section in the

component display is expanded in Wide mode.

- Fixed compatibility issues with Adobe Premiere on Windows and OS X.

- Fixed a bug in the mono AudioSuite plug-ins that caused the Whole File

option at the bottom to be disabled.

- The Mac OS X version now requires OS X 10.5 and an Intel processor. We

still offer previous versions for download if you need OS X 10.4 or

PowerPC support: www.fabfilter.com/support/downloads.
