FabFilter News
All plug-ins updated, Dolby Atmos support for Pro-Q 3 and Pro-L 2
Dec 13, 2021
All FabFilter plug-ins have been updated with bug fixes and improvements, including immersive audio support in Pro-Q 3 and Pro-L 2. This update is free for existing customers and we recommend everyone to update to the latest plug-in versions. So what's new?

Pro-Q 3, Pro-L 2:

Extended support for immersive/3D audio channel layouts, now up to Dolby Atmos 9.1.6. Note: AAX only support layouts up to Dolby Atmos 7.1.2.
Pro-Q 3:

In the surround version of the plug-in, it is now possible to let a curve affect all three front speakers (L/C/R).
The interface will now clearly show that it's in band solo mode when loading a session which was accidentally saved with Band Solo enabled, or when toggling solo via a Pro Tools control surface.
The interface now restores the previous zoom level when closing and reopening.
The interface now remembers the previous manual threshold value for each band when you switch between auto and manual mode.
Added Use Accessible Colors item to the Help menu, toggling to a brighter color for spectrum collisions.
All plug-ins:

Improved rotational drag mode for knobs to avoid unexpected sudden changes.
For newly installed plug-ins on Mac, factory presets will now be saved in the user's Documents folder, in FabFilter/Presets.
Fixed issues with text input for controls when running in Pro Tools, on macOS Big Sur and Monterey.
Improved Full Screen mode on Mac when using multiple monitors: the menu bar and the dock will now remain visible on other monitors. Fixed an issue with Timeless 3 and Volcano 3 where dialogs (e.g. Save As for presets) would not show up in Full Screen mode. The camera area on a 16" MacBook Pro will not overlap the full-screen area anymore.
Fixed a bug that caused keyboard shortcuts (e.g. the space bar) not to work in Reaper on Windows after using the mouse wheel and not moving the mouse.
The Windows installers now remember the VST2 folder location that was last used.
Pro-L 2: Fixed a small issue with higher oversampling rates (8x and more) where in some very specific cases, True Peak limiting could introduce a bit more distortion than needed.
Timeless 3: Fixed an issue which could cause a crash when running at very high sample rates, which also caused VST3 validation in Digital Performer to fail.
Volcano 3: Fixed a possible crash when modulating curves routed in parallel.
Small bug fixes and improvements.
The updated plug-ins are fully compatible with previous versions. The latest versions and 30-day trials are available for download now at www.fabfilter.com/download.

System requirements are either Windows 10, 8, 7, or Vista (32-bit and 64-bit) and a VST 2/3 host or Pro Tools, or macOS 10.12 or higher (64-bit only) with Intel or Apple Silicon processor, and an Audio Units host, VST 2/3 host, or Pro Tools.

To make self-quarantine just a little bit easier during the COVID-19 pandemic, we offer free 30-day evaluation extensions for all our plug-ins.

Here's another!

PSP E27 & PSP E27se v.1.7.2

CHANGES:
1. Apple Silicon native support,
2. Added higher resolution graphics for Windows PC version,
3. Added higher resolution graphics and retina support for macOS version.

BUG FIXES:
1. In ProTools - sometimes plugin was loosing mouse focus, which caused knobs to be immovable - fixed,
2. Minor bugs fixed.

KNOWN ISSUES:
- routing problem on multi channel (more than 2 channels) tracks in Reaper. The right channel is muted when the VST 3 plug-in is inserted. We advice to use VST 2.4. version on such tracks.

TO BE DONE:
1. Improving stability between VST3 version of the plugin and Ableton Live host application,
2. Proper track routing in Reaper for more audio channels than two.

1) Log-in to your PSP account and go to My plug-ins section,
2) Download the installer appropriate for your operating system. You can overwrite the newer version over the old one so after downloading simply start the installer.
3) Activate the license at your ilok license manager app.
4) If needed you can always return to the earlier version.

Thanks Stephen, for both of those.

[Stephen Bond]

My pleasure.

Anyone else tried PSP E27 & PSP E27se v.1.7.2?

I couldn't get it past the Pro Tools splash plugin scan?

I'm back to 1.7.1 for now...

I grabbed the demo version of 1.7.2 and it works just fine on OSX 10.13.6 and PT 2021.6. Of course when I opened it asked to activate it to my iLok (I'm running it on a trial basis) when the plugin scan was going and that worked just fine. I did get the SSBD but once I clicked on the 'done' (or whatever it's called) button the rest of the startup of PT went ok. Even ok after quitting PT and restarting.


Did you grab the right installer? There's a separate one for Apple Silicon and one of Intel.

[Stephen Bond]

Thanks. I double checked and I am using the Apple Silicon 1.7.2 installer.

Same deal second time round. It's looking for an InfiniStrip authorisation in my iLok which I don't have, only the E27

Stephen

Are you on Apple Silicon? Your sig file makes no mention of that.
Have you tried resynching your iLok? What does the ILM s/w say you have on your iLok? Maybe PSP messed up and have the wrong file on the site for e27? Does the downloaded file show for the plugin name when you go to install the updated e27?

[Stephen Bond]

I'm on the M1. I've updated my signature.

I am guessing also PSP have messed up.

Could be. Why not grab the Intel version and use it in Rosetta 2?

Plenty to celebrate here...
