UPDATES, IMPROVEMENTS, FIXES
- NEW! Swedish Metal Drive pedal model based on a Boss™ HM-2 Heavy Metal. The expert Diode Type now also includes the 1S2473 from this model.
- Pitch tracking improvements:
- Increased high range to ~2500 Hz to allow better tracking of pinch harmonics etc.
- Improved low frequency shifting for , e.g. bass guitars.
- The Input Gate and Gate block now allow faster Attack times down to 0.1 ms.
Note: Setting Attack and Release times too fast in any gate can cause distortion. - Changed default values of Dual Head Tape type in Delay block to be a bit more musical.
- NEW SPDIF Input Mode option. This setting, available only when INPUT SOURCE is set to SPDIF, determines how incoming SPDIF signals are handled by the VP4 (Left Only, Right Only, L+R Sum, Stereo).
FIXES
- Improved the performance of tempo from external MIDI clock, which can push-pull during preset changes.
