We are excited to announce the release of FilterSolo v1.1.3, a critical bug fix update that addresses some important issues and significantly improves the overall performance of the plugin. At HoRNet, we are always committed to delivering high-quality products that enhance your audio production experience, and with this update, we have ensured that FilterSolo operates more reliably and smoothly in your workflow.
With this release, we’ve tackled a few key issues that had been affecting users and made some important updates to improve the plugin’s performance. Below is a detailed overview of what’s new in FilterSolo v1.1.3:
One of the most important fixes in this update addresses an issue that occurred with the LFO (Low-Frequency Oscillator), where some hosts would go silent when restoring a session. This problem was identified in specific scenarios, particularly when a project with FilterSolo was reopened, leading to unexpected audio dropouts. This could cause disruptions in the flow of your work, especially if you were in the middle of a live session or had a time-sensitive project.
We have worked diligently to resolve this issue. The LFO bug fix ensures that the plugin functions as expected when you recall a session. Now, when you open a project or reload a session that contains FilterSolo, you won’t experience any sudden silences or disruptions in your audio output. Whether you’re working with long-term sessions or making quick adjustments, this update guarantees that you’ll be able to keep your workflow smooth and uninterrupted.
In this version, we’ve also made an important enhancement to the sawtooth wave in the LFO. The sawtooth waveform is one of the most commonly used modulation shapes, and it’s important that it behaves in an accurate and predictable manner. Users had reported that the sawtooth wave occasionally did not produce the intended effect, which could disrupt the creative flow when designing sounds.
The new update ensures that the sawtooth wave in the LFO behaves more reliably, producing a more accurate and stable sound. The modulation shape now offers greater precision, delivering smoother and more predictable results when using this waveform for modulation. This is an important update for those using the sawtooth shape in their designs, ensuring that every modulation curve behaves as you would expect and without unexpected artifacts.
As part of this update, we have made the decision to drop RTAS (Real-Time AudioSuite) support. RTAS, although once a widely-used format, has become outdated and is no longer supported by many modern DAWs. This change only affects a small number of users, as RTAS has been largely replaced by more modern plugin formats like AAX, VST3, and AU.
The reason for dropping RTAS support is to focus our development efforts on improving compatibility with more modern plugin formats, which will ensure better overall stability, performance, and integration across the current generation of digital audio workstations (DAWs). This decision will help us better allocate resources for ongoing improvements, bug fixes, and new feature development for FilterSolo moving forward.
While RTAS users may find this change inconvenient, we believe it is necessary to ensure that we can continue to deliver a plugin that meets the highest standards of performance and usability. As always, we remain committed to offering support for the most commonly used and future-proof plugin formats, so you can continue to use FilterSolo seamlessly across your favorite DAWs.
Along with the bug fixes and feature updates, FilterSolo v1.1.3 also includes various under-the-hood performance optimizations. We have focused on improving the overall stability and efficiency of the plugin, making sure that it operates smoothly in a wide range of setups. Whether you’re working with large, complex sessions or smaller, more intimate projects, you will notice that FilterSolo now runs more efficiently, with less strain on your system’s resources.
These performance optimizations ensure that the plugin remains responsive, even when working with high track counts or heavy processing. The new version is engineered to ensure that FilterSolo provides the best possible experience, no matter the size or complexity of your projects.
We have also made several minor improvements to the overall user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) of FilterSolo. These improvements make it easier to navigate through the plugin’s controls, adjust parameters with precision, and visualize your filter’s behavior in real-time. The LFO, filter types, and modulation controls now feature even more intuitive feedback, helping you achieve your desired sound more quickly.
As always, we are thrilled to offer this update completely free to all existing owners of FilterSolo. If you currently own the plugin, you can easily access the latest version by logging into your user area on our website. Downloading and installing the update is simple and fast, so you can get back to your projects with minimal disruption.
We highly recommend that all FilterSolo users update to version v1.1.3 in order to benefit from the enhanced stability and performance. The bug fixes, improved LFO functionality, and overall optimizations will provide a more seamless and enjoyable experience when using FilterSolo in your projects.
