Our friends at FabFilter have been busy fixing bugs in their products. Below is a full list of bug fixes that are available free for users to download from their accounts.

FabFilter Pro-R

• Fixed a bug in the VST3 plug-in that caused long reverb tails to be cut off after 10 seconds after the input became silent.

• The Post EQ and Decay Rate EQ band selection state is now restored correctly when undoing and redoing changes.

• Improved mouse wheel behavior on Mac with a Magic Mouse to avoid unwanted mouse wheel changes after dragging a curve in the display (especially with high/low-cut curves where this could change the curve slope). On Windows, fixed a problem that made it hard to change the Q with the mouse wheel while dragging (e.g. in solo mode in Pro-Q 2).

• Fixed a possible crash when controlling Band State parameters via MIDI Learn.

FabFilter Saturn

• Fixed a bug that caused Saturn to work incorrectly with HQ mode enabled at sample rates of 192 kHz and higher.

• The side-chain level meter around the Threshold knob now correctly shows the level after the side chain level parameters in the Expert section have been applied.

FabFilter Pro-Q 2

• Improved mouse wheel behaviour on Mac with a Magic Mouse to avoid unwanted mouse wheel changes after dragging a curve in the display (especially with high/low-cut curves where this could change the curve slope). On Windows, fixed a problem that made it hard to change the Q with the mouse wheel while dragging (e.g. in solo mode in Pro-Q 2).

• Fixed a possible crash when controlling Band State parameters via MIDI Learn.

FabFilter Pro-MB

• Fixed a possible crash when controlling Band State parameters via MIDI Learn.

• Fixed a bug that caused a band's gain to be displayed incorrectly after ending a drag operation while the display range was being animated.

FabFilter Twin 2, Volcano 2, Timeless 2, Saturn

• Fixed bug in the AAX and RTAS plug-ins with tempo/beat synchronization when using a signature other than 4/4.

• Linked control changes using the Alt key now also work when using the mouse wheel.

• Fixed a bug that caused text with multiple lines (such as the help hint label) to miss the last line of text on macOS Sierra (10.12).

• Improved mouse wheel behaviour on Windows with stepped parameters, e.g. on drop-down buttons.

• Added a workaround for a bug in macOS Sierra (10.12) that prevented the help file from opening correctly. The help file is now displayed in a web browser rather than the Help Viewer.

• Fixed an issue in the AAX plug-ins that could cause loss of existing automation data when writing automation in Automation Preview mode, for example when creating or deleting bands in Pro-Q 2.

• Fixed a bug in the AAX plug-ins that caused parameter values that are very close to the default value to remain at the default value when loading a session.

• Updated Windows help file to display correctly on High DPI monitors.

• Fixed a bug in the VST3 plug-ins when restoring a session in FL Studio 12 using a custom display scaling factor such as 125%: the plugin window could end up at the wrong size.

• Volcano 2: In Pro Tools, a mono-to-stereo version of the AAX and RTAS plug-ins is now available, in addition to the existing mono and stereo versions.
