FabFilter releases major Volcano 2.10 update

FabFilter has updated the FabFilter Volcano 2 filter effect plug-in to version 2.10, integrating the new modulation interface design from Twin 2 and Timeless 2, together with a new "wide" user interface layout. FabFilter says "the improved interface makes using FabFilter Volcano 2 more pleasurable than ever, while the advanced filter technology inside still ensures unrivalled sound quality and crazy sonic possibilities". The update is free for existing Volcano 2 users.

Full list of changes in Volcano 2.10:

• Added the new modulation system from Twin 2 and Timeless 2, making it easier to set up and visualize modulation connections.
• Added a new optional "wide" interface layout to provide more space for the modulation sources at the bottom of the interface.
• Added new XY sources that enable you to easily tweak other parameters in combination.
• Added new Phase Offset and Snap parameters to the XLFOs.
• Added new Delay and Hold parameters to the EG sources, and added a visual controller to make them easier to use.
• Added a new Response Curve parameter to the MIDI modulation sources.
• The plug-in is now Unicode-aware and correctly handles international characters on both Windows and Mac OS X, for example in preset folders and file names.
• Improved mouse wheel scrolling and editing behavior.
• Improved input/output/mix buttons in the bottom bar: now rounding correctly and supporting double-click text entry.
• Fixed incorrect redrawing in the plug-in interface that could occur in some cases in Pro Tools on Mac, for example when selecting <factory default> from the Pro Tools-provided presets menu in the plug-in header.
• Fixed bug that caused the help file to open only in the first instance of the plug-in.

FabFilter Volcano 2 costs €99 / $134 / £84 and supports Windows and Mac OS X in VST and VST 3, RTAS and Audio Units plug-in formats (32- and 64-bit). Bundles with FabFilter Volcano 2 and other FabFilter plug-ins are also available. See www.fabfilter.com/shop.
