EZMix 3 updated to v3.1.0 (not a deal)

[John Maar]

Changes

General:

An Undo system has been added.

Keyboard shortcuts have been added.

EZmix 3 can now be used in a fully functional trial mode for 10 days.

It is now possible to copy/paste a State between different EZmix 3 instances in a DAW.

125% scale should look sharper now (on "low-resolution" screens).

The performance of AI Amp Capture presets on stereo channels should be a bit better now.

"Show Tuner" has been added to the View menu.

"Next Preset" and "Previous Preset" in the Edit menu have been renamed.

Quick Start:

Orchestral templates have been added.

Some templates have been renamed, for example "Auto-Mastering" to "AI-Assisted.".

When a template is loaded and the window is so small that the Preset List is in its own tab, the Preset List tab gets selected now instead of the Similarity Map tab.

Loading a template no longer makes the Preset List be sorted by Similarity.

Rack:

New background images have been added for metal kit parts (snare, kick, etc.).

Effect Controls:

"Analyze Track" audio capturing will now pause less because of silent input – a longer period of not loud enough input is required for the capturing to pause.

"Clear Analyzed Track" has been added to the menu for the current preset. It does not change any of the current preset settings (but selecting the same preset again will most likely yield a different result, provided that it is an AI-assisted preset).

"Save as User Preset" and "Rename" now open a dialog where the user preset can be named.

"Delete" for a user preset now opens a confirmation dialog.

Preset List:

The preset list is now accessible to screen readers.

Filters:

Selectable rows are now always sorted above unselectable/disabled rows in the filter columns.

Selected filter rows are now orange instead of gray.

The filter columns are now accessible to screen readers.

Similarity Map:

The preset points are generally sharper now, especially when you zoom in.

If a filter is active and less than 250 presets are selectable, those preset points are larger now.

"Reset Zoom And Orientation" has been added to the View menu.

Settings:

A "Keyboard Shortcuts" tab has been added.

The Settings dialog can now be closed with Esc.

Standalone:

At startup, a dialog will appear if there is no input or output device.

Bug Fixes

General:

In some hosts, changing a track with EZmix 3 from mono to stereo did not work well – it could cause a very loud sound in one channel.

Having a captured/analyzed track for AI-Assisted presets and then changing the sample rate could yield bad results when other AI-Assisted presets were selected afterwards.

AI Amp Capture presets could sometimes produce an unintended bitcrushed sound at buffer sizes 64 and lower (and mainly with sample rate 44.1 kHz).

AI Amp Capture presets could potentially produce unwanted click sounds – if you played something very loud, paused and then played something much more silent.

Changing from one AI Amp Capture preset to another could potentially cause a crash.

Modal dialogs should no longer prevent interaction in other EZmix 3 instances in a DAW.

Various accessibility fixes have been made for improved screen reader support (but it is a work in progress).

Effect Controls:

Canceling "Reanalyze Audio" should now keep the previous state of the preset.

Alt-click (Mac) / Ctrl-click (PC) on the "Out" value did not reset it to the preset's default but always to 0.

"In" and "Mix" are no longer possible to reset to default when their locks are on.

The Gain Reduction peak value should be more accurate now and not miss any peaks.

Filters:

If a preset pack was marked as excluded, selecting another pack for inclusion did not work as expected.

The "clear all filters" button is now gray instead of orange when no filter is active but there are inactive ones (i.e., when there are only gray filter chips, not counting "Favorites" and "User Presets").

Similarity Map:

Zooming in much when using a large GUI scale could cause a crash on Mac.
