I3 has just updated its two track audio editor DSP-Quattro to version 2.0.1. This new release features new PlayList command 'Set All Pauses To", the AU plug-in name does not include the vendor name when displaying it on the Effx Send Mixer, a new settable parameter on the preference dialog for the default 'pause' value for newly created PlayList tracks. It also fixes a problem with Waves, Sony and some others AU plug-ins, appearing greyed out in 2.0, and fixes a problem with the Drag&Drop to the finder under MacOS 8/9.| DSP Quattro 2.0.1 | Post a comment ? |
