PreSonus is now shipping Universal Control 1.5.2, a free, major update to its driver and control software, which also includes important firmware updates for its StudioLive 16.4.2 and 16.0.2 digital mixers. We thank all who participated in the public beta testing for version 1.5.2; the beta version is replaced by this release.

With this update, current StudioLive 16.4.2 mixer owners can now take advantage of six 31-band graphic EQs that are dedicated to the aux buses, variable (2 to 500 ms) output delays on each subgroup, and Aux Flip mode, which lets you include the Tape input, Main FireWire return, Aux A input Aux B input, FXA bus, and FXB bus in Aux mixes 1 through 6.

Now all of Studio Devil's Mac plug-ins (Audio Units and VST) are compatible with both 32-bit AND 64-bit hosts! So, when you're ready to switch to 64, we're right there with you! (Windows 64-bit coming soon!)

Studio Devil utilizes the world's best tube modeling algorithms from Gallo Engineering to bring you the best in simulated tube amplifier tone. Many others have tried...but only one delivers the dynamic response you've come to expect from real tube amps.

The EQ3V is a flexible 7-band vintage equalizer plug-in. It offers 5 bands of fully parametric EQ, plus variable Q High Pass and Low Pass filters, and it's own unique harmonic colouration using analogue modelled saturation. Current values are clearly displayed for all parameters, each EQ section may be individually bypassed.

All equalization and saturation algorithms are oversampled, using 64bit internal processing for superior clarity and resolution.
