What's new

New in VLTone 0.6.2

New in 0.6.2

ARA 2 support

Compatible VST3 editors can access track audio clips through ARA. The editor is pinned before the regular effects chain.

Read moreShow less: ARA 2 support
  • ARA supports mono and stereo tracks in local projects; ordinary VST3 loading remains available.
  • Corrections are stored with the project. Bypass restores the original audio, and committing creates a separate processed version.
  • This is an early integration: compatibility depends on the plugin. RX 11 has not passed playback validation, and the complete edit, save, and export workflow with commercial editors still needs further qualification.

Spectral editor: time-frequency selection, gain, and preview controls.

  • Rectangle, brush, and lasso selection, with additive and subtractive regions.
  • Gain, erase, and fades with feathered selection boundaries.
  • Audition the selected signal or remainder, compare A/B, and undo changes.

  • De-click and a dedicated mouth-click mode.
  • Noise-profile learning and adjustable voice protection.
  • De-reverb, adjustable processing strength, and preview before applying.

Mutation: new timbres from a sample

Load a short sound and progressively transform its spectral structure. Play the instrument over MIDI while the next generation is being prepared.

Read moreShow less: Mutation: new timbres from a sample
  • Time, speed, and mutation-strength controls, pitch preservation, and return to the original.
  • Sustain and one-shot modes with an Attack / Hold / Decay / Sustain / Release envelope.
  • Sound and state are stored in the project, with Undo / Redo and sample drops onto the microscope.

Mutation: sample transformation and a five-stage amplitude envelope.

Vibrato directly on the note

A new Piano Roll tool lets you draw and adjust vibrato in the context of a MIDI phrase.

Read moreShow less: Vibrato directly on the note
  • Adjust the note region, vibrato depth, and rate.
  • Edit depth and rate envelopes using control points and a visible waveform.
  • Audition changes, save them in the project, and use Undo / Redo.

Separate instrument outputs

Route additional outputs from multi-output instruments to separate channels for independent mixing.

Read moreShow less: Separate instrument outputs
  • Outputs appear as child tracks and mixer channels.
  • Independent level, pan, and processing for individual instrument parts.
  • Routing settings are stored with the project.

A new system supports optional device packs. CL1 is provided as a separate Windows x64 pack.

Read moreShow less: Downloadable devices and CL1
  • Package signature and integrity checks during installation and loading.
  • Projects retain the exact device version; missing packs preserve settings and offer a download.
  • CL1 offers optical compression, FIX / DUAL / MAN timing modes, and LINK groups.

Other changes

  • Editors can be docked in the workspace; window placement and editor switching have been refined.
  • Audio editors can work across clips on a track, allowing clip switching without opening another window.
  • Updated VLT 1073 visuals and controls; refined VLT 2A, Wavetable, the rack, and device panels.
  • Further internal subsystems now use Rust: MIDI, playback lookahead, modulation, waveform construction, pitch analysis, and vocal alignment.
  • Optimized timeline navigation and repainting, inline mixer EQ rendering, and audio task distribution across workers.
  • Strengthened macOS packaging checks and removed duplicate QML components.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed editor and background-task lifetime issues when closing or replacing a project.
  • Refined catalogue searches through filesystem aliases and temporary-data cleanup.
  • Fixed minimum control heights, hidden interface layers, and track-icon selection with Enter.
  • Improved ARA handling with older scanner caches: the selected plugin capabilities are refreshed before track insertion.
  • Spectral processing is safely discarded when switching clips, closing the editor, or replacing the project.
