VB3 Changelog

What's new in VB3 1.4

Jun 28, 2010
  • Added new Rotary Speaker simulation derived from the code for the upcoming VB3 version 2!
  • Added option to choose the destination of MIDI CC# 64 (sustain, rotary switch or assignable)
  • Added new item in the DAT (ini) file for the CC# of rotary brake for the "2 controllers" option
  • When the organ preset octave isn't active, keys below the first C and above the last C play folded-back octaves
  • When switching between organ presets something made the switching get slower over and over. Fixed.
  • When switching between organ presets while playing, an audible crackle was produced. Fixed.
  • Now the "Midi Learn" takes the correct Channel even when the Split is active.
  • Now the Split function leaves the pedalboard available on its own separate channel
  • The pedalboard tapering is now correct (sub-harmonics were missing on some notes)
  • When the host saved a project, VB3 muted its sound and caused an audible click. Fixed.
  • Now programs and banks are saved as "custom chunks"
  • Reorganized the .DAT file and renamed it to .INI and moved the .FXP .INI and .LIC file locations on Mac to the User Library

New in VB3 1.3 (Mar 16, 2010)

  • Added "Advanced Midi Learn" function
  • Added support for the sustain pedal

New in VB3 1.2.2 (Dec 12, 2008)

  • New Spring Reverb algorithm derived from GSi Type4
  • The code has been enormously optimized and the CPU load is amost halved
  • Fixed bugs with some hosts (Sonar, Tracktion3, Receptor) that caused a crash when loading VB3
  • Added option "Output Level" with 5 different levels. Use this to prevent VB3 from generating audio clips at high dynamics
  • Rotary speaker simualtor: improved control over rotors speeds; improved algorithm "Jazz 122";
  • Keyclick: improved and optimized
  • Percussion: added the missing high-pass filter that gives it more punch and enforces the attack
  • Organ sound: the leakage factor, the whole balance between lows and highs and the background noise have been noticeably improved
  • Functionality: no more need to recompute the internal wavetables when the plugin is set in standby by the host; improved the stereo widening algorithm
  • Many other things have changed internally that can't be explained in few words, but your fine ears will be able to notice the difference with previous versions.
