Imaginando has announced a significant update for its granular synthesizer instrument for Windows, Mac, and iOS. Version 1.11.0 of FRMS comes with several important changes.
First and foremost, this release marks the end of Cloud Sync. If you rely on Cloud Sync to back up your patches, please ensure you save them to your local bank before upgrading. Additionally, we are discontinuing support for the AAX plugin format, a decision based on the relatively small number of users in our community using AAX. However, this decision could be revisited in the future depending on demand.
On a brighter note, we are thrilled to announce support for the much-requested VST3 plugin format! This ensures FRMS remains compatible with the latest updates from the Steinberg family of products, which are moving away from VST2. We’ve also added support for ASIO drivers in the Windows standalone application, improving audio performance and flexibility for our Windows users.
