Audulus 3.5 is out now - update your Audulus version and let us know what you think! The update includes hundreds of new and improved modules as well as CPU optimizations that should allow you to build larger patches.
@panthera86 - what’s holding you back? I’ve personally never had an issue with updating my OS on Mac. Do you have other less well-supported software that breaks when you update OS?
@panthera86 - So I don’t mean this is a snobby way at all, but our focus is on making sure our program works on the current OSes - one reason being that people should update because each version brings security updates, and leaving your entire digital life vulnerable because of an audio plugin that was abandoned by its developer isn’t very wise.
That said maybe you have a totally offline machine - that’s fine, and really everything except for the wire highlighting feature is already available on this forum - there are in fact more modules here in the various forum collections. That’s all the update was really - just adding more patches.
We don’t deliberately try to make Audulus updates incompatable with older OSes. If it were easy or even just easier, we would do it.
But what you’re essentially asking for without maybe realizing it is to spend more time per update figuring out how to make a new feature backwards compatible for a few people who are reluctant to update their OS - often because of a less active developer’s plugin that’s abandoned or slow to update.
In the long run, that dev time for us is ultimately just flushed away whenever the last person stops using an old Mac version, or we just simply have to mke a new break, say with Audulus. That’s essentially taking possible new features away from users who don’t have any trouble updating.
So I know it’s not necessarily what you want to hear, but hopefully that explains why Audulus often requires a new OS (Audulus 3.5 for iOS uses an iOS11-only feature, for example). You’re totally free not to update and pretty much all of the patches that will be made for Audulus 3 will still work with your current version.
