Change Log History :
v1.3.3Added two new free compression effects based on MXR Dyna Comp and Dyna Comp with attack mod.
v1.3.1New opportunities :
Added a new free distortion effect based on the ProCo Rat pedal.
Completely free pedalboard mode. All built-in effects pedals can now be used without purchasing additional modules.
When the preamp and power amplifier are disabled, the amplifier’s visual display is hidden.
Improvements :
Improved graphics rendering performance on Mac.
More precise determination of thread priorities.
Improved Noise Gate algorithm.
Improved pulse loader algorithm.
Improving Pulse Loader performance by 80%.
Important changes :
The algorithm for determining Machine ID in the activation section of the Ampbox add-on has been changed. As a result, you may need to reactivate previously purchased and activated add-ons.
In some cases, when using third-party pulses, the Ampbox output level may need to be adjusted again.
At sampling rates above 44.1 kHz, you may need to adjust the Noise Gate effect settings.
Bug fixes :
Fixed an issue with the click sound when launching Ampbox in Logic Pro X.
Fixed an issue with random audio output volume when selecting Parallel mode for the Delay effect.
Fixed an issue with Ampbox crashing when closing effect windows.
Fixed an issue with the project freezing when quickly switching presets.
Fixed an issue with the project stopping when changing oversampling in Logic Pro X during playback.
Fixed problem with no sound when loading a project.
Fixed an issue with audio I/O knobs not working when loading Ampbox in Logic Pro X.
Fixed an issue with the Delay effect.
Fixed a bug with audio disappearing in Euphoria on channel 2 when switching settings.
Fixed a bug with the threshold triggering in the Noise Gate effect.
