RetroWare has updated its free Audio Unit plug-in midiO to version 1.3.

midiO is a small Audio Unit that generates MIDI out from GarageBand. In its current form, it is not intended to be a general purpose, full functionality MIDI interface. What it does provide is an internal MIDI out port to which other MIDI enabled programs can connect to. The MIDI data in the software instrument track for which midiO is chosen as a generator will be sent in sync with the playhead to the MIDI out port named "midiO".

Changes in v1.3 :

• Passes AU validation under Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
• Can generate program and bank change messages.

Blue Cat Audio has released new versions of all its free audio plugins for both Mac and PC in Audio Unit, VST and DirectX formats. The new versions bring several fixes as well as new windows installers that allow the installation of all plugins at once.
