  • The post-EQ LFO was incorrectly timed when operating above 44.1kHz.

New in Reverberate 1.416 (May 12, 2010)

  • All: Fixed an issue with the VST-RTAS beta period expiration date preventing the demo from running correctly under the VST-RTAS wrapper.
  • OS X: Better handling of lost file user interaction mechanisms.

New in Reverberate 1.413 (Apr 30, 2010)

  • Increased maximum IR length.
  • Presets files now stored in '/Library/Audio/Impulse Responses/LiquidSonics' to follow the typical Mac convention.
  • Default presets now use wav instead of flac due to compatibility issues on some Macs. Links to the previous flac files are provided on the website support page.

New in Reverberate 1.412 (Apr 20, 2010)

  • Some hosts did not correctly restore the correct program in a bank when a song/project file is loaded. This is fixed in saves from this version and beyond though any old saves will still exhibit the incorrect behaviour in affected hosts.

New in Reverberate 1.410 (Apr 17, 2010)

  • Added a new modulation capability to IR1's EQ and IR2's EQ to allow start-end sliding EQ configurations for changing the frequency and gain of all 5 bands of equalisation independently.
  • Added the capability to vary envelope attack, decay and release shapes from linear (old default) to log or exponent.
  • Impulse Response viewer now reflects EQ changes.
  • Fixed the initial position of file browser when loading an FXP file from the host.
  • VST-RTAS beta period extended by 1 month to expire 01/05/2010.
  • Changes for the worker thread priorities when operating in the VST-RTAS wrapper to reduce CPU starvation when under high system load.
  • Fix for IR1-B and IR2-B (second part of true stereo pairs) which were not correctly filtered by IR1 EQ and IR2 EQ.

New in Reverberate 1.402 (Mar 11, 2010)

  • All: Added a stereo to mono conversion capability for the IR1, IR2 and Master mixer sections (accessed via topology view).
  • All: Auto-pairing of short file names did not work, now fixed.
  • All: Added support for Mono-Mono and Mono-Stereo modes of operation under the FXpansion VST-RTAS wrapper to allow use on mono tracks.
  • All: Upon detection of the first run of Reverberate under the VST-RTAS wrapper a dialogue is shown to recommend reducing the host processors to one below the maximum (this increases performance of multi-threaded VST plug-ins under PT).
  • OS X: AU has reduced CPU consumption when operating in non-zero latency modes.
  • OS X: Further changes to fix an installer permissions fault.

New in Reverberate 1.401 (Feb 22, 2010)

  • All: An option to chain output of IR1 into IR2 has been added into the mixer.
  • All: The plug-in now detects input silences longer than the length of the longest IR currently in use and automatically bypasses processing to conserve CPU.
  • All: Improved compatability with FXpansion's RTAS-VST wrapper.
  • OS X: AU now supports delay compensated increased latency modes for CPU conservation.

New in Reverberate 1.400 (Feb 16, 2010)

  • New integrated preset management system.
  • Includes PC version's browser search filter for most OS X hosts.
  • Installer permissions fault fixed.

New in Reverberate 1.301 (Feb 1, 2010)

  • OS X: Active area in splash screen to register license files updated.

New in Reverberate 1.250 (Jan 8, 2010)

  • All: Added function to down-sample the plug-in when running above 48 kHz to reduce CPU consumption in hosts running at high sample rates.
  • All: Sample rate independence mode added so that moving between sample rates in hosts does not change the IR gain and filtering characteristics of Reverberate. When this mode is set (as is now the default) IR gain is independent of the host sample rate, and the filters are limited to a maximum frequency of 22 kHz rather than being set as the Nyquist of the sample rate. A compatibility mode is available (see 'Settings', 'Sample Rate Dependence', 'Host Rate Dependent') for users with presets or songs used with sample rates other than 44.1 kHz that may now change when running in the default 'Host Rate Independent' mode.
  • All: The core convolver now more evenly distributes CPU load where projects have multiple instances of Reverberate loaded concurrently. This is especially noticeable in high sample rate projects with multiple instances of Reverberate loaded.
  • All: VU meters now only show as red when the audio is above 0dBFS.
  • OS X: IR navigation buttons now correctly function with aiff files.

New in Reverberate 1.240 (Dec 14, 2009)

  • All: Added additional modulation options into the IR mixer to facilitate modulation of the balance of the wet IR1 and IR2 signals. A phase control is provided to allow modulation of the IRs to be set relative to each other's position in the modulation cycle.
  • All: Factory presets modified to take advantage of the new pan modulation capabilities.
  • All: Fixed an issue with auto pairing if L, R, and C files are present in the same directory.
  • All: The contrast on the grey navigation and eject buttons has been increased.
  • OS X AU and VST: Fixed an issue where truncated OS X long file names were causing left/right navigation buttons to fail in some cases.
  • OS X AU: Since AU hosts do not support loading FXB files, the AU now includes an option to load an FXB bank from the settings tab's bank/preset options menu (note the updated preset names do not propagate through to the host's preset lists). Furthermore, presets can now be selected via the settings tab's bank/preset options menu (AU only) to enable loaded bank files to be navigated once the preset names have changed.
  • OS X AU: Work-around for PDC bug in AU implemented such that only zero latency mode is supported when running the AU plug-in.

New in Reverberate 1.225 (Nov 16, 2009)

  • Fix for AU stereo processing mode.
  • Fix for corrupt parameter text displays on post EQ screen as introduced in 1.222.
  • Also incorporating the following private builds:
  • 1.224: 12/11/09 (private tester build)
  • Fix for AU stereo processing mode (beta).
  • 1.223: 07/11/09 (private tester build)
  • Some license file paths fail to validate correctly, an error box is now shown informing the user how to rectify the issue.

New in Reverberate 1.222 (Nov 5, 2009)

  • All: Controls now default to sliders mode and have increased precision (in addition to ability to hold shift for even higher precision).
  • OS X: Additional checking code around splash screen license file validation to catch a potential crash bug.
