4.6.0

Mar 19
  • Added: new quality options: Over-Sampled x2, x4 and x16. This will over-sampled only the Sample-Playback engine, not the entire synth. By over-sampling you will remove any aliasing artifacts and improve sound quality without raising CPU usage too much. (for the x2 and x4 options, x16 will raise CPU usage considerably) When switching the quality, ALL instances will follow the new chosen quality.
  • Added: new modulation destination: Layers crossfade. It will crossfade layers from O1 to W2. You can adjust Min and Max in the modulation matrix to have it crossfade only the layers you want. (EG: set to Min 50 and Max 100, and it will crossfade from layer O3 to W1)

  • New Mod-Matrix option: Aftertouch+ModWheel
  • New Mod-Matrix option: Master Vibrato. This last one uses an internal fixed LFO. (2 velocity options)
  • New Mod-Matrix option: Phase Modulation. (only works with special sound-files) Now its possible to create Yamaha PM FM modulation with the support of special WAV files we have included. Some example presets are included under "-Feature Showcase" named "Phase Position 1 (FM Style)" (4 examples)
  • Mod-Matrix Tools can also be found under Sources now.
  • New Mod-Matrix Tool: Add Master Vibrato (replaces previous vibrato tools)
  • Improved CPU usage for the Modulation-Matrix, when less than 16 voices is used. This is very usefull for complex monophonic sounds. EG: Bass and FXs.

3.1.5

March 16

Important: This update requires V3.1.4 prior to installation.

  • Several important fixes related to the GUI that were causing crashes or bad-redraws.

3.1.4

March 11

Important Notes:

  • this update will re-compile the whole Categorized Library. If you customized your files, be sure to do a backup before installing this new version, as the installer will delete the whole "Data\Library" directory and place the new files there.
  • the file "Essenfelder_Update.exe" holds an updated version of that piano, as noted bellow. The "Wusikstation_DATA_Updater.bin" already comes with this updated file.

List of fixes:

  • problem related to Dual-Core machines, loading up 2 presets/instances at the same time.
  • problem with presets that has a DOT "." on the name.
  • graphic-bugs of the File-Browser.
  • problem with the Rank system.
  • problem with the Percentage-Bar.
  • crashes related to browsing presets.
  • loading of files with a space before the file-name extention. EG: "Grand Piano .WusikPRST"
  • while loading a preset, key focus remain on the main GUI
  • display of RANK presets on the main-GUI was causing incorrect displays.
  • problem when editing and loading effects.
  • midi-learned CCs were not showing at the effects controlls.
  • HQ Pianos - Essenfelder: the samples were all in mono, an error during conversion. We added a new set of files and a new preset, to update, download the following file "Essenfelder_Update.exe". Old projects won't be affected, as both samples and preset were saved on separated files. The new preset is "Essenfelder - Stereo Dyna Full 2.WusikPRST".
  • All HQ Piano presets were updated, as they were a bit off tune. This won't affect your current songs, only new projects.
  • categorized library updated. (organized presets that were on the wrong place)

3.1.2

Feb  10

 A new directory (before named as "V3 Beta Presets") was created, called "Presets\-Feature Showcase". Inside you will find several presets showing all the old and new V3 features.

The Manual was also updated. You can download the latest version HERE.

New Features:

  • If a file is not found, the code will try to match a directory+filename during the search. If it fails, it will try the old filename search. If all failed and the sound couldn't be located, the layer will be marked with !*! before the name of the SoundSet.
  • Right-Click options on the File-Browser, for the Filename-List. (Right of the window) You can Move, Rename, Copy and Delete files directly.
  • New Skin option. Tool-Tips Color and Font selection. Last lines of the TXT file. See the V3 Red Default Skin for an example.
  • New File-Browser option for Presets: Top Rank Mode. Right-Click and select the option to move the preset upwards. This preset will now be market as a TOP RANK preset. And will be listed first on both regular and search listings. The preset gets an extra "-rnk-" in front of the name. This is used to know if the preset is a TOP RANK preset or not.
  • New Categorized Library, introducing the new WusikLIB file that links to Preset paths. Now when you click to open the File-Browser, by default, it will open the new Library option instead. Click again to open the Preset browser.
  • New option for the File-Browser: "Open Library" - when checked, it will open the Library Browser instead of the Preset Browser. Clickin where you open the preset/file browser again, switches to the Preset Browser and vice-versa.
  • New option for the File-Browser: "No Search Questions". When ON, if during a file load, a file is not found, and a search is made, if more than one file is found, it will not use any file and result as a "File Not Found" message at the end. So you can go ahead and find the missing files manually. Layers marked with !*! before the name of the SoundSet.
  • The new WusikLIB files now can hold up descriptions of the patch/preset. This will be displayed with the Tool-Tips, while holding the mouse over the Library entree. Sound-Designers: you can open the WusikLIB files with Notepad and add new lines of description directly on the file. It should be: The Patch/Preset Path, new line, and after any description. New lines will also work on the description. (the code converts to the special "\" tool tip command)
  • The whole Two Gig Collection have been categorized with the new Library option. Soon we will update even more sets to include a series of WusikLIB categorized files.
  • New WSeq Fade Envelope Types: DuoPhonic Fade and DuoPhonic NoFade. This requires a Skin update in order to work, so be sure that the skin you are using is updated to V3.1.2. This new feature is very handy for Arpgeggiator and Mono sequences. Making it sound much smoother, as it uses 2 voices to play and cross-fade.
  • 4 New WSeq Mod Slots. Now you got 8 Mod Lanes.
  • WSeq Mod Event Source on the ModMatrix. This can be used to create Drum Tracks. The next Wusik Sound Magazine will come with a full tutorial on how to use this new feature. You can check a preset featuring this and the bellow new features under "-Feature Showcase\Multi Seq and Event (use mod wheel).WusikPRST"
  • New WSequencer option: Sequence Slot. Now you have 9 sequences that can be changed in real-time by using the mod matrix. This can be used to create Drum Tracks. The next Wusik Sound Magazine will come with a full tutorial on how to use this new feature. You can check a preset featuring this and the bellow new features under "-Feature Showcase\Multi Seq and Event (use mod wheel).WusikPRST" - Skin Designers, there's only one new object, no BMP needed, do a search for the object named "EditxSeq" on the skin txt file.
  • New Mod Matrix Destination: All Volumes.
  • New Mod Matrix Destination: Sequencer Slot. (see above)
  • New Mod Matrix Source: Keys 36 to 44.
  • New WSequencer Menu Option. (right click) "Clone Selection" This will copy the current selected steps to the whole extention of the sequence. (128 steps)
  • New WSequencer Menu Option. (right click) "Copy all Seqs to next Slot" This will copy all sequence-lanes from the current sequence slot to the next slot. This is very usefull when creating Drum-Rythms, so you can copy one seq-pattern (slot) to the next one.
  • New Mod-Matrix Destination: Sync Fade. This option forces a Hard-Sync but in conjunction with a Fade Out+In, so the result is cleaner compared to the regular Sync. Two test presets were created on the "Presets\-Feature Showcase" directory. "Synch with Fade" and "Sync with No Fade"
  • New Mod-Matrix Destination: WSeq Start - you can set where the next Sequencer Sync will jump to. This only works with Synced sequences.
  • New Mod-Matrix Source: R.Robin(Note Seq) - Round Robin Note to Sequence Start, must be used in conjuntion with WSeq Start. For every new note it will jump to the next Start position and will loop after end is reached. A preset was created on the "Presets\-Feature Showcase" directory named "Round Robin (Note Seq)".

Bug Fixes:

  • Disk-Streaming problem related to note-steal. (when using sustain-pedal or running out of voices with longer decays)
  • File-Browser will update the display if a preset/file is loaded outside the browser.
  • File-Browser Close on Double-Click.
  • File-Browser Close on Load, shows Percentage Bar.
  • Missing Tool Tip on the MOD LFOs BPM/HS Selector.
  • Popup-Menus will block Tool-Tips until closed.
  • File Search, on selection, was exiting the search list.
  • Bmp/HZ selector was still showing on some Large Skins during WSeq editing.
  • When a WusikSND has a "hole" on the key/velocity-zones, it was playing the oldest zone. Now it plays Silence instead. This fixes a problem with the Drumilenium set.
  • "Remember Last Path" option from the File-Browser.
  • Double Slashes (\\) from Directory Paths.
  • Save Preset/Patch no longer resets the File-Browser.
  • The last slot of the WSequencer Waveforms List where not been used. So you could only use up to 31 waveforms, now this has been fixed to 32 waveforms as showed.
  • When changing the SampleStart of a layer, it won't click anymore. (a special code was added)
  • Problem related to the browsing presets via the File-Browser.
  • Problem related to hosts like Forte, that would send a new Preset-Chunk while the last one was still loading.
  • Error checking when a sound-file is loaded, to avoid crashing.

New Skins:

3.1.0

Jan 11

 A new directory (before named as "V3 Beta Presets") was created, called "Presets\-Feature Showcase". Inside you will find several presets showing all the old and new V3 features. Including the new Wavesequencer-Arpeggiator and the new Studio Reverb FXs.

The Manual was also updated. You can download the latest version HERE.

New Features:

  • New Studio Verb licensed from Anwida. (64 bits) This was used to create three new WusikEFX files, that can be loaded inside Wusikstation and saved with the presets. Those are: Studio Verb Lite, Studio Verb Quad and Studio Verb Echo.
  • Almost all the MDA effects where ported to the WusikEFX format, so you can also use those inside Wusikstation. The manual has the full list of effects included. (some were ignored, as they didn't have any usage inside the synth)
  • New Wavesequencer options: Arpeggiator and Gate-Volume. The Arpeggiator has several modes: Up, Down, Up/Down, Random, Order and Pattern. This new ARP Pattern mode is very advanced, as it allows you to create any rhythm patterns. Check the folder "Presets\-Feature Showcase" for examples. The files with (3 keys) on the name.
  • New effect: Static Delay. Gives you the ability to delay a Layer's Sound. Again, check the preset included: "Static Delay"
  • WAV files will now use the saved key-root information. If none is found, it will default to note 60. (C3)
  • New Percentage-Bar while loading files. Also works when opening files for Disk-Streaming.
  • Developers and Sound-Designers only: you can use any simple VST effect inside Wusikstation. We will soon release more information about this. You can also email us at support for more details.
  • File-Browser: Child Browser Window. When selected, the File-Browser will open inside the main window and centered. (non-movable)

Bug Fixes:

  • When ProgramChange = CurrentProgram, ignore the change. This solves problems with SONAR and other hosts. That were overwriting the preset while saving a song.
  • When sending a program-change directly to the VSTi, and the number is above the current number of presets, it will ignore the PC. (before it would halt the whole code.)
  • Error with Wavesequencer PAN when in MONO mode but with more than one key pressed.
  • Bug with preset "Oceans Song". It was related to a bad Mod-Matrix entree.
  • Bad WAV file looping problems.
  • ModMatrix bug related to mono processing signals.
  • Envelope to Mono Signals. EG: Mod Env 1 to Master Filters. They work now. They take the signal from O1 last used voice. So it works best in MONO mode.
  • problem with fixed pitch layers and mono-mode.
  • a problem related to key-zones. When a zone was not found, it was playing back incorrect notes. Now this has been fixed.

3.0.9e

Dec 07
  • Fixed problems with a few hosts like SONAR 5 and 6, where you would lose your preset changes after saving the project. (the host would send a program-change after saving the song)
  • Fixed a problem with the Installer and the "Wusikstation FX" VST version. You may need to clear the registry settings using the following tool: http://www.wusik.com/download/WusikEngine_RegistryCleaner.exe - after install V3.0.9e update. (only do this if you couldn't run the "Wusikstation FX" version)

3.0.9c

Nov 27
  • Fixed problems with LIVE, FL and other hosts that sends a SetProgram after a preset is loaded.
  • Fixed a problem on closing the file-browser by clicking on the "x" button. (random crash)
  • Removed wrong warning from the update installer.

3.0.9

Nov 15
  • VST Host Preset-List will now act like a full directory preset browser. So you can browse all presets without having to open the GUI/Editor.
  • Now the key-strokes will only affect the OnFocus Window. For example, when on the File-Browser Window, the Up/Down keys will browse the files. If you click on the Main Window, it will change the value of a parameter which the mouse is over.
  • All keys that are not used by the VST will be sent back to the main VST window when using the File-Browser.
  • New option for the File-Browser: FocusBack OnPresetLoad. This will force the main window to get Mouse/Keyboard Focus when a preset is loaded. This helps on hosts such as Renoise. So when you load a preset, you can start using the keyboard-keys to play the instrument.

3.0.8

Oct 16
  • New Detached File-Browser Window
  • Fixed small bugs
  • Faster loading GUI

3.0.6

Sept 16
  • Added Disk Streaming Feature. By default, it will only stream files larger than 40 meg. Notice that this feature only works for WusikSND files, and the regular layers: O1, O2, O3 and O4. If you experience problems with clicks/pops, try adjusting the buffer size by Right-Clicking and opening the context menu. In some situations you may need to adjust your Sound-Card buffer. You can turn Off Disk-Streaming by setting the first option to "Off". You can also use the "Set Default" option from the Configuration Window to save the settings for new instances. Read the user manual for more information.
  • Fixed problem with some hosts not re-loading the previous settings / preset on a son. (VST to RTAS and other hosts)
  • Fixed several stability problems. (if you were having problems with previous versions, this should be fixed by now)

3.0.4

Aug 08
  • Unison selector changed to Menu syle. (avoids some internal problems)
  • Unison better code. When selecting a value, the sound won't start with a loud attack. Unless you set Retrigger ON. Mind you that the Unison effect only works best with Looped material.
  • Added Retrig option to the Wavesequencer. When > 0, it will Retrigger the waveform.
  • Added SmpStart: Sample Start to the Wavesequencer.
  • Added Beat Shft to the Wavesequencer. This is to allow direct Drum Recycling. You can load a Drum-Loop, and use this option to ReCycle it inside the Wavesequencers.
  • The 2 new Wavesequencer options above are to be used with the Retrigger option, as its changes don't affect until you Retrigger the Waveform. This also adds the option to create LoFi Granular and TimeStrech effects.
  • Non Looped WAV files will display correctly now.
  • When saving a Preset, the name will be displayed on the GUI and it will also refresh the FileBrowser.
  • Retrigger will now force the Envelope to ReStart on NoteOn/Off.
  • New Mod Matrix Option: Vector Morphing X/Y Pad. This is separated from the main X/Y Pad, so you can use both.
  • The Vector Morphing can be seen at the X/Y Pad, as a grey line under the original X/Y cross. You can re-start it by clicking with the mouse, mid-click also works.
  • Mid-Click will now act as Fine-Changing for almost all parameters, including Wavesequencer Editing. Making it easier for most tasks. This setting is always Vertical, even for objects that works on the Vertical. Its a limitation of the new code.
  • Added: Mod Matrix Sum Options: Multiply, Merge and Substract. 
  • Added: Wavesequencer Speed option: BPM or HZ.
  • Added: Wavesequencer xFade Envelope Types.
  • Added: LFO new Speed option: BPM or HZ.
  • New WSeq Editor Init code. When selecting a new Lane, it will only Init it if all steps have the same value.
  • ToolTips.txt file moved to the "Configurations" folder.
  • New "Set Default" options. Before, it saved everything at once, now it asks Yes and No for each section: Midi-Learn, Configurations, Default-Preset and a new option called Default Values.
  • Double Mid-Click will set the parameter to its Default-Value as stated by the "Set Default" option from the Configuration window. It reads a file under "Configurations" called "Default Values.txt" Note that Ctrl+Click will still Center the current parameter. Only Double Mid-Click will call the actual Default-Value.
  • Fixed VU meters on Mixer page. Since Insert-FX was added, they were not showing correctly. Fixed now.
  • The option Remember Path was renamed to Sticky Path, as it makes more sense. Also, now it will remember the following paths: Sounds, Presets, TUN and FXs.
  • FileBrowser Bug fixed. Sometimes, when selecting a layer or preset, it wouldn't show the current loaded file for that section.
  • New Updated PDF Manual:
    http://wusik.com/products/wusikstationv3/manual/V3_Manual.PDF

Notice that now, due to a new code, the ModMatrix will always be sorted by DESTINATION-CODE. This saves A LOT of CPU usage with the new code. 

Added some new presets to the "Beta V3 Presets" directory:

  • Vector Morphing 01 (use ModWheel)
  • Vector Morphing 02 (use ModWheel)
  • Granular LoFi 01
  • Granular LoFi 02
  • Granular LoFi 03

June 16
  • Insert effects per Layer. Besides the current FX1 and FX2, you will have 6 new options. iO1, iO2, iO3, iO4, iW1, iW2.
  • File Search (works for all files) F3 Shortcut
    The search is done on the selected directory and all sub-dirs inside.
    If you select a Root directory, it will search everywhere. (inside the DATA\*** folder)
  • Preset Favorites - Saves/Loads user presets
  • Preset Word Search. This will search for the entered word inside preset-files.
    EG: You want to find all presets that are named Piano, but also uses samples named Piano.
    Or you want to find files with Arabic tunning, just type ARABIC.
  • Extra Envelope options: Exponential (x1 and x2), Inverted Exponential (x1, x2 and x4) or Linear Mode. (right-click on AmpEnv/ModEnvs)
  • Amp Envelopes can be LINKED now. (right-click on AmpEnv)
  • Option to add new elements on the GUI for V3 skins, while still been able to load V2/V1 skins.
    For those cases, it will use Right-Click menus to access new objects. (as stated above)

2.2.6

June 11
  • Fixed Zero-Attack Envelope Click Bug. Samples starting at zero-offset were still clicking.
  • Added a Smooth code to the Wavesequencer Volume Changes. This makes GATE Sequence effects much better. Before they were reproducing clicks and pops.
  • Max number of instances increased from 20 to 200 instances. If you need more than 200 instances, freeze the track and set your host to un-load the pluging after freezing. Or contact support, we will provide a special DLL for your case.
  • New Filter IDLE code. Now if the filter is still outputing, the voice won't enter IDLE mode. This prevents a series of clicks produced by the filter when turning off a voice that had a filter still playing something. EG: high rezonance settings, deep low pass filtering and other cases.
  • Note: some of those fixes may increase CPU usage, but overall it should stay the same for most cases.

  • If you move your DATA files you no longer need to reinstall. When you first open the VSTi, it will ask you to locate the DATA files.
