Limiter
Unless you use it as a special effect, Pure Limiter is supposed to be the very last stage of your audio processing chain. It uses the exclusive FLUX technologies to generate a release envelop producing no artefact on the processed sound.
A transparent limiting dramatically increasing the average audio level can now be achieved without damaging the perceived audio quality.
As usual with the FLUX plug-ins there is no compromise between simplicity of use and the exhaustiveness of the accessible parameters. An automatic mode allows quick operations in most cases. But a manual mode and an advanced mode are also there to allow you a total control on the processing.
To make the setting even easier, the Pure Limiter also features two display modes. When the mode A is engaged, both original and limited waveforms are displayed. The Mode B displays the limited waveform, the limiter action and the histogram of the release value which is especially useful when running in advanced mode.
The Pure Limiter is 384 KHz and 8 channels capable. It also features the exclusive A/B preset morphing function.

# All plug-ins
* - Morphing and toggle AB can give different settings
* - State of morphing automation button is now recoded in sessions, and can be automated.
* - Session reloading with lot of Flux:: plug-ins inserted loading time reduced and authorization check enhanced.
* - Authorization could randomly failed.
* - Some compatibility issues with Pyramix 6.1
* - Some session reloading problems in AudioUnit, that can lead to incorrect plug-in parameters
# All VST 2 Channels plug-ins
* - Side chain and processing buttons not well initialized
# Alchemist
* - Optimization about morphing slider, when morphing a lot of parameters.
* - Invert phase was not working correctly.
* - Compare function in Protools was broken
* - Some Automation bugs fix... Because of this fix, by default Alchemist will no more read correctly Automation data recorded with the previous version. To support old automation, you must set up the Automation old mode support. Please note that this mode is deprecated for new projects: you should disble it before creating new sessions.
o Windows: Go in the "Start" Menu → "All Programs->Flux:: sound and picture development" and click on "Enable Old Automation support". Click on "Disable old Automation support" to come back in the new mode (Recommended for new project).
o MacOS: Open a terminal (located in the Applications => Utilities folder) and set up the mode via the following command:
defaults write com.gaelyvan.flux.plugins HandleOldAutomation -bool YES
(validate by pressing "return" keyboard button).
To Delete this preference, set the following command:
defaults write com.gaelyvan.flux.plugins HandleOldAutomation -bool NO.
(validate by pressing "return" keyboard button).
# Solera
* - Side Chain EQ initialization problem, at 48kHz sampling rate, for band #1
* - MS Width not working
# Epure II VST
* - Possible bad render in WaveLab
# Epure II
* - Possible crash in very high sampling rate
# Epure II Venue
* - Recall of the preset A and B slot and the Morphing slider position have been temporally removed from the session and Snapshot recall. This because of an issue with current DShow software that does not really support big custom chunk in snapshot. We will try to re-implement this as soon as possible.
# Stereo Tool PC
* - Installer not support Windows XP 64
# Security PC
* - crash sometimes when shutting down or restarting windows
* - iLok support not working on Vista 64 SP1
* - Flux Security Engine hang on some Vista 64 Home Premium SP1 system
* - New iLok support management. Now the Flux:: security engine will not try to load the iLok support if iLok drivers are not installed or if the installed version is too old. This allow to be able to use the Flux:: vst plug-ins without installing iLok (if you are using the Flux:: dongle). The Security Manager will display messages regarding your current iLok installation.
