News

Version 4.0

Please note: A problem with the previous release can occasionally cause the update to version 4 to fail. If you experience issues after the update, please follow the steps listed in the first item on the FAQ page.

  • The plugin now runs natively on Apple Silicon.
  • Changes to variable step algorithms for dials.
  • Dial selection lists.
  • Deep linking (sending messages to the plugin from, e.g., a browser).
  • Scripting events for device status.
  • Comment sections in scripts.
  • Local timers. This is a breaking change: local timers are prefixed "@lt_";if you have variables with that prefix, you need to rename them.
  • Bug fixes.

Version 3.12.1 released

  • Bug fix
    • The Generic Midi button ignored the defined midi channel when configured as a button (push, toggle, hold and latch). When a command of the configured type was received, the plugin accepted it regardless of on which channel it was received. This is now fixed.
  • Addition
    • The scripted dial has a new "selection list" feature.

No video for this update.

Version 3.12

This version has a new scripted dial.

Version 3.11 released

  • A new Generic Midi button is added.

  • Bug fixes.

Please note that this version has some potentially breaking changes:

  • Script variables prefixed with @t_ and @timer_ must be renamed.

  • Script variables are no longer restricted to the Midi value range 0-127.

  • The wrong dual-byte CC command was sent, which is now corrected. If you use dual-byte CC commands, you need to review your settings.
