RML Labs Updates Its Plug-Ins

RML Labs has released updates for SAWStudio (v4.9), SAWStudioLite (v4.9), Studio Reverb (v1.7) and Studio Levelizer (v3.3).

Enhancements in SAWStudio:

Enhanced the SACLink protocol to pass necessary information between SAC and SAWStudio to allow for record loopback latency compensation and an overall more accurate record sync alignment during overdub recording using the SACLink.

Added a new TCP/IP mode called Activate TCP/IP Video Slave Mode to the Options Menu. This option allows you to use a slave machine specifically as a video slave only, meaning no audio is being played from its engine. The video viewer playback sync is locked to the host machine network position, not the local soundcard playback position. Therefore this machine does not require any special word clock or other clock sync connection to keep host and slave accurately synced for the video playback. Normally a slave machine plays its own soundcard outputs and handles its own internal positioning, depending on some sort of hardware clock sync between the host and slave soundcards to keep from drifting.

Added a new option to the Host Mode TCP/IP functions that allows you to now see a list of all Remote and Slave computers currently connected. Left-Clicking in the main titlebar Host/Master zone when you have active connections will display a list of each computer connection and the computer names.

Video Track Viewer v3.4:

Added two new options on the popup Options Menu called Render RealTime To Extended Monitor and Keep Original Video Aspect On Extended Monitor. These options emulate the Hardware Overlay Render features on video cards that do not support the second monitor full-screen video playback options. These options will output a full-screen display on a secondary extended monitor. The display is scaled using hi-speed software manipulation to replace the missing overlay output capabilities. This now allows you to create very inexpensive video slave machines using small NetBook computers or laptops, as long as they have a dual monitor video output, which most currently do. You can then run them as TCP/IP remotes or video slaves for perfect video sync, feeding video projectors in shows using separate video streams.

Bug Fixes in SAWStudio:

The SAC Link Import Mix Data From SAC option now correctly ignores the Input Att, Swap LR, Phase Rvs and Mono Switch.

Modified code to trap for TCP/IP packet splitting of long command string data that could cause corruption in the command execution under certain conditions.

Modified code for loading VST Presets and forcing a screen update of the new settings for certain plugins that would not update properly on their own.

Modified code to force a MT Cursor redraw when switching back from other applications.

Eq Plugin v2.8:

Fixed code to properly initialize all parameters when loading presets while the engine is live.

Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live.

Echo Plugin v2.9:

Fixed code to properly initialize all parameters when loading presets while the engine is live.

Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live.

Studio Reverb v1.7:

Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live.

Studio Levelizer v3.3:

Fixed code to properly initialize all parameters when loading presets while the engine is live.

Code modified to stabilize sending and receiving parameter set data for preset saves and loads while the processing engine is live. This may help with possible crashes in the SAC environment with active Levelizer patches when saving sessions while the engine is live.
