Blue Cat's Plug'n Script 3.5 Released, with Standalone App Export, SysEx Support and More

Dear Gear Addicts,

We are happy to announce the release of a free update for Blue Cat's Plug'n Script, our audio and MIDI scripting software that can be programmed to create your own effects or virtual instruments.

With this new version, it is possible to export audio and MIDI scripts as an independent standalone application, in addition to the existing plug-in formats (AAX, VST, VST3 and Audio Unit). This lets you create and distribute audio applications easily like never before.

This free update also adds MIDI System Exclusive (SysEx) messages support to the MIDI stack, with new features in the MIDI library to help with MIDI SysEx scripting as well as new example scripts (full list of other improvements and fixes below).

The update is free for registered V3 customers and can be downloaded from the same location as the original full version (link received by email upon purchase). Demo versions are available for download on www.bluecataudio.com for Mac and PC, and a special offer (20% off) is in place until May 22nd.
