We have a new beta for you all to try: 2.7.0-beta4.
This release is built around presets and session workflow: a full preset system for effects, controllers, and generators, plus a new multi-session workspace that lets you switch between and manage sessions from a single file menu. It also brings sidechain routing to the compressor, a new Gate effect with sidechain and metering, a new Bit Crush effect, expanded MIDI notes generator options, new sequencer modes, and a wave of metering, navigation, and stability improvements throughout.
Open the beta app to update or head to https://sunhou.se/downloads/beta to grab the installer.
Please give the beta a try and let us know what you think with the ‘Beta Feedback’ button in the app.
If you aren’t a part of the Beta channel and would like to be, please send us a message at support@sunhou.se and we’ll add you!
