Presswerk v1.1.1 (rev 4332)

​

There's a bug in the current version of Presswerk VST2 Win: It uses a wrong VST2 plug-in ID. This ID helps hosts to identify plug-ins. As a result, project files couldn't be swapped cross platform in some hosts. Unfortunately we noticed this only after we released Presswerk V1.1. First it wasn't much of a problem, a mere oversight, but soon more and more people ran into issues. Our recent customer survey shows that hundreds of Presswerk users are potentially affected. We need to fix this once and for all!

Here's how: We'll switch the plug-in ID on VST2 Win. This will break existing projects in some hosts. So we're offering a tool that can update project files of affected hosts (Live 8 or newer, recent Cubase, recent Sonar, Studio One) to work with the correct ID. That "Project Converter" is available for Win and Mac and it's part of the download.

If that isn't a solution for you, we're offering an alternative: VST3. If your host supports it, keep your old Presswerk V1.1.0 VST2 and use the new VST3 for your next projects.

A few Presswerk users will have to stick to the old version, or render their existing projects one last time before upgrading, e.g. if they have parameter automation. Or, wait it out until their host supports VST3. Eventually they will.

We've prepared a pdf guide to show the options, and we've also set up a webpage with in-depth information.

We are extremely sorry for the inconvenience this causes (I had sleepless nights over this). I think though we came up with the best possible solution in the long run. It took some time to get there because we needed both VST3 support and the project conversion tool to be ready for this.

Please give it a go, we're hoping to catch problems as soon as possible and make the transition as flawless as possible for the people who are affected!
