u-he has released public beta rev 3169 of Presswerk, the dynamics effect plug-in for Windows and Mac.
We’ve been working really hard on this. Here’s a new beta of Presswerk, with a vast number of improvements and most niggles fixed.
But also, after reading all the feedback and carefully weighing pros and cons, we decided to rework the usability concept. This meant dropping the “vintage views” we had in the first beta.
Changes in Presswerk rev 3169
- Redesigned workflow.
- Repositioned HQ button (main LCD panel).
- Added Whole-State Undo (undo for accidental mode or preset changes).
- Added stuff to the manual.
- Improved latency reporting to Host.
- Changed BOTH to LINK (non-destructive behavior) and added a Parameter Feedback Overlay.
- Renamed ANLG button to DPR (DUAL PHASE ROTATION).
- ‘SHIFT + knob’ on Dry:Wet, Int:Ext & percentage knobs now shows fine resolution in data display.
- Many fixes.
The new public beta is available to download from the u-he forum and KVR Audio. The plug-in is already available to purchase at a 30% discount during the beta period.
The BOSS GT-100 is an excellent guitar effects processor, but I prefer the BOSS GT-10 because it has all of the effect buttons (Compressor, Preamps, EQ, FX1, FX2, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, etc.) right on the front of the unit so I can instantly see what effects are on/off, and I can instantly select the effect I want to edit. I also prefer having the CTRL1 and CTRL2 pedals on the BOSS GT-10 vs. the Loop and Accel pedals on the BOSS GT-100. Most of the effects (including the Graphic and Parametric EQ’s) appear to be the same in the BOSS GT-100 as in the BOSS GT-10 as well; I was hoping for a 16/32/64/128-band Graphic EQ and a Parametric EQ that would allow me to adjust at least 20 or more individual frequencies (at 100Hz increments; rather than skipping every 1000Hz or so). The BOSS GT-100 does not have all of the same amp types and so if a person transfers BOSS GT-10 patches into the BOSS GT-100 the patches will not sound the same; I highly recommend that Manufacturers who make guitar effect processors include all of the same effects (and parameters) in the new/future guitar effect processors as the older units had; By doing so awesome guitar sounds (called patches) will be able to be transferred onto the new units and years from now there will be thousands of awesome sounding patches that can be used in old and new guitar effect processors. It always comes down to a person wanting great sounds (called patches); And if a Manufacturer does not include all of the same effects (and parameters) as the older units, then all the awesome guitar sounds (called patches) become useless in the newer guitar effects processors; and the process of making great sounding patches starts all over again! So it is very important that guitar effect processor Manufacturers include all of the same effect (and parameters) from the older units into the newer units and make sure when the patches are transferred they sound 100% (not 99%) the same!
