Massive Free Update @ Blue Cat Audio

Dear Gear Addicts,

We are very happy to announce the release of free updates for all our 32 audio plug-ins and applications, including our 8 free plug-ins.



Our plug-in line offers unique creative tools for mixing or mastering engineers, sound designers, guitar & bass players or virtual instruments lovers: all of them have been updated today.

These updates mainly contain multi-monitor Hi DPI scaling support for Windows and improved Retina display support for Mac with crispier images display on high resolution screens, as well as a couple of other fixes and improvements depending on the plug-ins as detailed below.

This occasion is also the opportunity for us to launch "Back To School" special offers, with up to 33% off until September 30th, exclusively on our website. Demo versions can be downloaded on www.bluecataudio.com, in most popular plug-in formats for Mac and PC.

What's New for All Plug-Ins:

- Windows: Multi monitor High DPI scaling support for high resolution displays (4K monitors, hi-res laptops…) for Windows 10 version 1607 (Anniversary Edition) and newer.

- Mac: Improved Retina display support, with crispier graphics at all resolutions and zoom levels.

- Mac: fixed random GUI refresh issues in Reaper on Retina displays.

What’s New For Plug-in Hosts (PatchWork, Axiom, Fader Hub, MB-7 Mixer & Late Replies):

- Auto Scale option for third party plug-ins that do not support HiDPI on Windows.

- New option to disable “suspend processing on silence” for plug-ins that do not report tail size properly (such as Valhalla plug-ins).

- Fixed a potential issue with VST3 plug-ins using unicode characters in parameter names and values.

- Fixed a crash with some VST3 plug-ins requiring inputParameterChanges (such as Martinic plug-ins).

- Fixed crash on Apple Silicon and wrong preset names on other platforms when loading VST3 plug-ins that define presets without names (such as FabFilter plug-ins).

- Fixed minor memory leak when using oversampling for plug-ins.

What’s New For Plug’n Script:

- Fixed potential problems with other plug-ins changing locale settings in non-GUI threads.

- Fixed input strings names reset to default when using angelscript for DSP (native was fine).

- Fixed exported plug-ins creating a “Plug’n Script” folder in the user’s documents folder.

- Other minor bug fixes.

System requirements:

- Apple Silicon or Intel Mac running Mac OS 10.9 or newer.

- PC running Windows Vista or newer.

Enjoy!:thumbsup:
