(Uh, easily, cough, Logic Environment.) This is a minor update, but there’s now a grid to keep things neat and tidy and the thing with the rectangles bottom right is a heads-up overview of the overall patch. Patcher was already a clever tool for routing sophisticated custom patch chains easily. More Context Aware Value support across plugins and Automation Clips.Multi-select, cloning in Playlist Tracks.Improved Event to Automation Clip conversion.64-bit sample lengths for handling larger recordings and audio.
Clip Editor automation is improved with multi-point editing, target highlighting, and link management.Better audio recording with new input modes, monitoring, Playlist track controls.
Improved Patcher Tool with a mini-map for navigation and grid – love that one, actually, it allows you to make custom-routed chains of instruments and effects. SoundFont Player is back, now 64-bit, and on macOS even Apple Silicon native. Stretch Pro for Sampler Channel and Audio Clips Instrument with real-time formant controls. Vintage Chorus a la Roland’s Juno-6, which it seems we can’t get away from these days. Pitch Shifter with real-time pitch manipulation. Okay, all pitch shifters should have this kind of interface. (Previously, you’d need to force FL Studio to run in Rosetta 2 as an Intel app.) I’m still hopeful more plug-ins add support, and AU don’t require the tweaks, but this is useful for VST-only plug-ins like VCV Rack Studio, at least until they’re updated.Īs usual, FL has a lot of new goodies, though. Intel VST and AU plug-ins now work in the Apple Silicon native host via a process bridge. For all the nice new stuff, Mac users I expect will be happiest about the M1 compatibility tweaks.
