Softube Plugins Updated To v2.6.38 – 7 New Plugins

Softube has updated its plugins to v2.6.38 featuring seven new plugins and numerous fixes and improvements.

New products:

Added Direct DAW Control support for Ableton Live. Add “Softube Direct DAW Control” under Tempo/Midi/Control Surfaces in settings to activate it. We recommend using Ableton Live 12.4 or newer.
Added support for controlling Channel Strip modules in Cubase on Limited Tracks with Direct DAW Control active. This works for Filters, Compressor, and EQ.
Fixed a MIDI issue that could prevent Console 1 tracks from appearing immediately on project load in Cubase/Nuendo with Direct DAW Control active.
Added an update to make it possible to use the OK button on a Flow Studio unit when navigating a Console 1 menu.
Optimized how graphical data is sent to the screens on the hardware units.

Added the possibility to load a single plug-in from the Flow Selector. This is done by switching Type from Flows to Plug-ins in the Flow Selector using Flow Control 3. The plug-ins are loaded with 8 pre-mapped Flow Controls. This feature is only available when Flow Studio is controlling the Flow Mixing Suite plug-in.
Added new visualizations: Goniometer, Distortion, and Guitar Tuner.
Filter options are now removed from the Flow Selector when the result would be empty (e.g., hiding the Mastering filter if there are no Mastering Flows available).
Fixed an issue that could cause the screen to turn black when a plug-in was placed on an active track.
Fixed an issue that could cause Flow Studio to crash when large amounts of MIDI data were sent to the unit.
Fixed an issue that caused front-page parameters to be off by one when using Flow Mastering Suite in Detail Mode.

Added Screen Reader support for Flow Studio.
Fixed an issue that could cause the frequency analyzer to disappear on certain tracks. Switching back and forth to another track would make it appear again.
Fixed a rare crash that could occur when double-tapping a knob on Console 1 Channel Mk III while using Pro Tools.
Fixed an issue that could cause the On-Screen Display to keep running after it had been uninstalled on Mac.

Fixed a bug that could cause license failure pop-up windows to be triggered unexpectedly when loading the plug-in.

Fixed an issue that prevented “Ext. S/C to…” and “Filters to…” from working when using the processor inside Console 1.

Added Tape/Preamp Headroom parameter. The new parameter is adjusted via ‘Shift + Input Gain’ (Console 1 Channel Mk III units only, since ‘Shift + Input Gain’ is used to control Width on Mk I/II units) or via the plug-in UI.
Fixed an issue where the manual button inside the Console 1 plug-in would incorrectly redirect to the older Mk II hardware manual.

Added new Alex Venguer Flow Pack by Alex Venguer.
Added a Guitar Tuner to the UI, available in the plug-in menu bar.
Fixed a bug that could cause some cabinets to erroneously show up as “not installed”.
Fixed a potential parameter synchronization issue that could occur if both the Flow Mixing Suite and Console 1 were placed on the same track.

New Flow: Vintage Master. This Flow includes the Bus Processor 670.
Fixed an issue that could cause plug-in descriptions to linger after clearing the signal chain (either by pressing “Empty Signal Chain” in the Plug-in Preset Browser or “New” in the Flow Selector).

Fixed an issue in our pitch detection algorithm that could cause rare, seemingly random crashes. This update also improves overall pitch tracking stability.
