Phoenix Verb

Lots of fixes and improvements.

This Beta addresses an issue in automation that appeared only in Pro Tools. There is only one other feature in the beta, which is the new automatic version check.

This newest version adds VST3 support (32 and 64-bit) and now supports all major plugin formats for both Mac and Windows workstations.

In addition to VST3, PhoenixVerb and R2 now feature an expanded preset management page with the ability to import and export user presets. It's now possible to share presets among friends or across a facility.

New presets have been added to both plugins, with a special set of PhoenixVerb presets from well-known producer Pete 'Boxsta' Martin.

Compliance with new OSX digital signing requirements.
VST3 - in 32 and 64 bit form. If your DAW supports VST3, it will automatically load the VST3 form if you've installed it. If you haven't installed the VST3 plugins, you'll get regular VST.
Preset Import/Export - there are new buttons on the Store page. You can select any user presets and export them to a folder of your choice. This makes it easier to share with friends or colleagues, who can import the presets just as easily. And of course, Exponential Audio is always interested in any presets you might like to share with the world.
There's now a global parameter that lets you control gain for the mix parameter. The previous choice was a linear fade (and that's still the default). But you can now select a power-based fade to maintain overall gain more accurately.
State-saving is a little faster. You're not likely to notice this unless your session is on a network drive.
Processing threshold is now stored/restored properly in session data
Several small stability tweaks.
Other changes in the release notes (in the installer packages)

The primary feature of this new version is an even greater improvement in plugin efficiency (already best in class and now even better). There are many new presets for both plugins. There is also a fix for a rare Mac bug which could cause a crash when starting up very large projects.

A new capability has been added to the download pages for any users with slower internet service. Installers may be loaded in smaller chunks and then reassembled on the users' computers with easily available (and free) software. Links are also provided to this archival software for both Mac and Windows.

PhoenixVerb and R2 have been updated.
This is a bug fix release that addresses a very rare crash
That could appear when multiple copies of the plugin
were loaded in opening a session.

Fixed a problem with mouse wheel fine adjust that only appeared on Windows. Some parameters jumped more than a single value. That's been corrected.

Command-drag (fine adjust) requires a shorter distance to make adjustments.

Several graphic tweaks.

Added several new presets: Med Mid Plate, Med Thin Plate 2, Med Chamber 2, Lge Wooden Church 2, Large Perc Plate 2, Lge Sizzle Plate 2, Neutral Hall 2, Lge Neutral Hall 2, and some more rooms.

GUI replaced with brand new look, now in the same family as surrounds. GUI is slightly smaller overall.

Added 'Favorites' list and preset marking capability.

Added Preferences page, with all preferences from Surround plugins.

Installer has been reduced in size considerably.

Fixed an issue that would cause a crash when a session required user presets that were no longer present on the system. The settings are properly recalled but the preset is shown as missing.

There are a number of bug fixes, more presets and AudioSuite support on AAX

Many fixes in this release. Startup noises at high sample rates have been eliminated. Crash in exiting Studio One Mac is fixed (Please be
sure to update to the most recent version of Studio One). Lowered CPU load at rollback. GUI issues fixed in WaveLab and VePro.

Version 1.4.02 released. Oct 13, 2013

This is a very minor but important tweak. An optimization error was found in the diffuser section which could make small sonic differences. Small issues from 1.4.01 remain. Please see the The FAQ .

Version 1.4.01 released. Oct 12, 2013

The 1.4 build had some hidden nasties that didn't turn up until it went out into the world. On the Mac, those included some crashes of VST DAWs on plugin unload or shutdown. A few DAWs, such as Cubase also didn't restore correct parameter values to plugins that were part of a session. That's all been cleaned up. A few issues may remain for a small minority of users. The FAQ also has a new section on known issues.

Version 1.4.0 released. Oct 5, 2013

A number of small fixes: A little better performance, a little faster startup, eliminated some audible ticks from program load, processor load is spread out, reducing spikes. Also fixed some issues with preset saving, fixed mono bypass and added wrapper code to make redeeming license codes easier. Several new presets.
