Blue Cat Audio updates Plug'n Script with MIDI control

A scriptable plug-in builder just got a massive free update that finally nails state persistence and cracks open way more MIDI control options.

Blue Cat's Plug'n Script 3.6 lands

• Version 3.6 is free for all registered V3 owners.
• A 20%-off deal runs until March 31 at €79/$79.
• Full price returns to €99/$99 after the promo ends.
• Mac and PC demo versions are available right now.

DSP and scripting upgrades matter most

• Private output parameters keep data hidden from hosts.
• Script-state persistency finally saves internal DSP states.
• CPU usage in the DSP thread got trimmed down.
• A nasty white-noise VST3 routing bug is squashed.

MIDI control gets a huge expansion

• Every parameter responds to notes, pitch bend, and NRPN.
• 14-bit CCs, aftertouch, and channel pressure work too.
• Settings pages now split parameters for faster navigation.
• Preset loading with hundreds of user presets runs smoother.

UI and platform fixes pile up

• Twenty new knob styles and three slider types landed.
• Windows multitouch lets you tweak multiple controls simultaneously.
• HiDPI and retina display issues got patched across platforms.
• A macOS Tahoe gradient bug from Apple's side is fixed.
