Oi, Grandad! v2.2.3b

• Adds a granular delay type
• Various UI fixes
• Slight performance improvement
• Should fix logic start up bug
• Envelope can now be pre or post the delay

2.2.2

• Adjusts value ranges for delay time, pitch window and volume
• adds power switch to each voice
• Added recordings to content folder

Known issues:

• The plugin may be silent in Logic when first starting up, changing the I/O buffer size in audio settings should fix this. Any value works and you can change it back to the original size once working.
• Breaks compatibility with earlier presets
• Generally speaking v2+ builds are more experimental, for more stable experience use v1.

File management

Known issues:

• The plugin may be silent in Logic when first starting up, changing the I/O buffer size in audio settings should fix this. Any value works and you can change it back to the original size once working.

Oi, Grandad! v2.0.0b

Some time ago I started work on a sequel to Oi, Grandad! It was built more or less from scratch, had lots of fancy new features and used up about 50% of your CPU simply by being turned on. This has been scrapped in favour of a more evolutionary approach. So here's Oi, Grandad! v2 as it was always supposed to be:

New Features:

• Each voice now has (up to) four position sliders
• Modulators now have four selectable stages
• Per voice waveguide resonator
• Various pitch quantisation options
• Dedicated Master control page allowing for quick modification of each voice
• Sync modulators to DAW transport
• 'Led' indicators for round robin mode
• Comprehensive, post synth routing options
• Fancy new UI

Fixes:

• Disappearing modulation knobs!
• Smoother Xfade transitions
• Drone knob now resets when changing preset

Other:

• Max grain size is now calculated on loading a sample
• Samples and presets are now stored outside the users home directory (Mac & windows)
• Approx. 80% compatible with v1 presets
