Please welcome Blue Cat’s PatchWork 2.78, yet another free update for our virtual patchbay for plug-ins!
This new release brings several useful improvements and new features. Check out the short video below for an overview of what’s new (full changelog available below):
New in PatchWork 2.78
- New Plug-ins Scanner: scan third party plug-ins and load them directly from the plug-in menu.
- New Plug-ins Browser: browse and search plug-ins once scanned, with optional full text search inside saved plug-ins.
- Added support for Audio Unit V3 (AUV3) plug-ins on MacOS.
- Enhanced presets browser:
- Displays results in real time while typing.
- Supports full-text search within presets (find presets containing a specific plug-in or keywords).
- Performs searches without blocking the user interface.
- Both the plug-in and preset browsers now match files containing all search terms (AND logic) instead of just one (OR logic).
- Plug-ins user interface is now open automatically when dragged and dropped from the file system.
- Audio player’s play/pause is now NOT synchronized to host by default (this can be overridden via a user default preset).
- VST3 plug-in editors are now loaded only when their user interface is displayed.
- Fixed Polytune plug-in crashing when saved in the user default preset
Other Plug-Ins Hosts
What about the other plug-ins host? Well, there’s good news for them too: new previews for all of our plug-ins hosts (Axiom, Fader Hub, Late Replies, MB-7 Mixer) are now available, including these new features and much more.
Enjoy!
