New in v1.2
DUAL filters mode
z3ta+ allows now to have filters in SERIAL configuration, but they are
still stereo!
To achieve that, a new DUAL mode was introduced. When in this mode, both
filters will change its operation mode to stereo, and filter 1 will be
routed to filter 2.
Many new filtering options are the result of this change:
LPF->HPF, HPF->BPF, FORMANT->LPF, etc.
The VA Collection bank
Included the last factory bank (F), created with the Producer
job in mind: Direct-To-Track presets, with minimum effects usage.
This set includes analog sounds from vintage and new gear,
and it showcases the new dual filters option. There impressive.
PASTE SPECIAL function
The new Paste Special function allows pasting settings for Oscillators,
Filters, LFOs, EGs, Matrix and all individual effects between patches,
a utility/time saver for the creation of new sounds.
Get Effects from Program File Function
This function allows applying all effects settings to a program from a
template program stored on disk.
New matrix sources
U-Random, B-Random: A random value will be generated on every key-on.
Osc1 / 6: Any oscillator can be used as modulation source now.
Oscillators can now be used as a fast LFO which can be shaped using
the waveshaper!
USER defined initialize program
z3ta+ will search for a preset called default.fxp in the \Presets folder
when the Program…Initialize function is called. If the preset is found,
it will be used in the initializing operation (load).
Standard initializing will happen otherwise.
z3ta+_fx version (VST)
Now z3ta+ can be used as a multieffect processor unit in VST hosts
New User Manual
z3ta+ user manual was rewritten and updated with all new features added
since the first release.
Bugfixes:
PHASE control clicks when clicking and holding the mouse on it.
Cubase SX Always on top resets Filters LINK control.
All Save..A dialogs will prompt before overwriting a existing file now.
New in v1.3
