Voicemeeter Version History

[Vincent Burel]

Correction / new functions 3.02.8 / 2.0.6.8 / 1.0.8.8
QUALIFICATION : RELEASE.
- PARAMETRIC EQ: Channel Copy includes channel information, that is used for PASTE operation. Consequently it was not possible to copy a channel settings to another channel. Now it is possible to copy a channel settings in another one.
- MACRO BUTTONS / VOICEMEETER / GEQ15 / MATRIX8x8: Windows placement revision (in some case, Windows position might be lost).
- REMOTE API: new instruction to manage Compressor/Gate detailed parameters.


Correction / new functions 3.02.7 / 2.0.6.7 / 1.0.8.7
QUALIFICATION : RELEASE.
- GATE DETAILS: “Threshold out” parameters (not very useful) is replaced by “Damping Max” to limit the gain reduction on gate close (providing a kind of expander function).
- GATE DETAILS: “BP Sidechain” allows to activate a Band Pass Filter on the Detection signal (to make the gate more sensitive to a part of the spectrum only : 1.5 octave).
- COMP DETAILS: Attack time can now go to 200ms.
- START AUDIO ENGINE: error management revision
- COMP/GATE DETAILS: parameters can be set by Precision Slider (by SHIFT + LEFT CLICK).
- COMP/GATE DETAILS: Parameters could not be updated when using the strip menu (to reset or paste settings).


Correction / new functions 3.0.2.6 / 2.0.6.6 / 1.0.8.6
QUALIFICATION : RELEASE.
- VOICEMEETER: ASIO PATCH for BUS A2 was displaying wrong channel numbers in some cases.
- RESET SETTINGS: typo correction in warning dialog box.
- VOICEMEETER BANANA: BUS B1 EQ and MUTE button were not perfectly aligned (graphic correction).
- STRIP MENU: Click on top of the Strip (on INTELLIPAN or EQUALIZER Label) to open a contextual menu to Reset, Copy / Paste or Save / Load parts or all of the strip parameters.
- VOICEMEETER STANDARD: MIDI Feedback was not working correct for Audibility and Equalizer knobs.
- MIDI MAPPING: feedback now offers option to set feedback value for 2 states buttons (and the possibility to send other MIDI message for OFF and ON status). A LED is blinking on last control touched.
- ASIO ON A1 : unused output channel could contains signal coming from input (this THRU process for output channel not used by Voicemeeter is now removed).
- SPLASH: Bitmap Splash Screen updates for Voicemeeter Standard & Banana.
- COMPRESSOR: Release parameter can go to 5000ms.
- COMPRESSOR DETAILS: Click on Transfer graph was settings the INTELLIPAN cursor behind.
- VBAN –Talkie PC: Updated to version 1.0.0.6. Different potential bug correction (input signal could be forwarded to audio output device if there was no incoming VBAN stream).
- VM-STREAMER: Slider mode are like on first version, (first slider is no “master” slider).
- VBDeviceCheck: now display an error message if willing to change device audio format in USER Mode (admin mode is required to write in registry).
- OUTPUT A1: Check that buffer size does not go above 2048 samples.


Correction / new functions 3.0.2.5 / 2.0.6.5 / 1.0.8.5
QUALIFICATION : RELEASE CANDIDATE.
1- DENOISER: parameter was not stored in settings file.
2- FX RETURN on BUS: Display label R = Reverb, D=Delay, C= C5
3- MAIN VIEW: Button QUESTION added beside Minimize and Close Button to link to our support web page.
4- C5: Auto makeup control is now global and replaced on each band by an output Gain.
5- COMPRESSOR: Attack / Release behavior revision (in some case, these tow parameters were not running consistent).
6- GATE DETAILS: dBDiff parameter has been replaced by an attack time. The Gate process has been totally revised.
7- DEVICE CHECKER: this application now offers a Devices List page to display all VB-Audio Virtual Devices and let you change audio point sample rate and possibly check some parameters read in registry (requires to be run in administrator mode to be able to change registry settings).
8- MACRO BUTTONS : new GPI functions (requires specific hardware - to test later).
9- MACRO BUTTONS : new Command instruction to change the color of a button: Button.Color = 0 to 9;
10- REGRESSION: Instruction Bus().EQ.AB = 1; was not working anymore in previous version (due to a mistake in the implementation of instruction Strip().EQ.AB = 1;)


Correction / new functions 3.0.2.4 / 2.0.6.4 / 1.0.8.4
QUALIFICATION : RELEASE CANDIDATE.
1- ASIO DRIVER Validation (Re-engineered DLL)
2- VOICEMEETER AUDIO CALBACK validation (Re-engineered DLL).
3- MACRO-BUTTONS: new instruction System.Mouse( “ACTION”); ACTION can be LBUTTONDOWN, LBUTTONUP, RBUTTONDOWN, RBUTTONUP, MBUTTONDOWN, MBUTTONUP.
4- VIRTUAL ASIO INSERT: Patch status is displayed on the top left of each strip as ‘i’ + arrow to show and change the PATCH INSERT more directly on strip and directly see if the ASIO Insert is in use or not.
5- AUDIO CALLBACK: VMR Bus output Callback is now after the FX Return.


Correction / new functions 3.0.2.3 / 2.0.6.3 / 1.0.8.3
QUALIFICATION : BETA.
5- MUTE Function by menu shortkey (HOOK) was not updating MIDI remote connected to Voicemeeter (to mute input1 or output A1 BUS with CTRL+F10).
6- Menu “Limit Remote Gain to 0dB” option was no more taken in account when using remote relative gain instruction (e.g. Strip(0).gain +=3)
7- REMOTE API: GetDeviceDescW was not returning same info than GetDeviceDesc
8- EQ 6 Band Full parametric EQ is now offering a new gain range -36 to +18 dB and can be applied to hardware input (in Voicemeeter Potato Only).
9- MONITORING DELAY max (500 ms per default) can be set in registry “MaxMonDelayMS” in ms. (allowed max: 5000 ms).
10- COMP/GATE: Right click show Compressor and Gate detailed parameters over the hardware strips (right click again to close it). Changing a specific parameters display Compressor or Gate Knob display PRG inside the knob, meaning the settings is given by detailed parameters. Acting on the Comp or Gate knob will reset detailed parameters as they have to be to retrieve the regular behavior.
11- COMP/GATE: Since moving compressor or gate knob will modify all detailed parameters, CTL + Right Click on knob will recall the last settings defined before. Transfer graph is displayed in the Intellipan Panel (with compressor input level, compressor output level and reduction level in red).
12- MENU -> Shortcut key now offer to hook Volume key of function key for output A2 Slider.
13- MIDI MAPPING: new denoiser control.
14- MIDI MAPPING:MIDI message occurrence(s) are displayed in yellow, right click to display what other control is using the same MIDI message.
15- VIRTUAL ASIO DRIVER: Re-engineered to support timing callback error from master audio device. This modification concerns Virtual ASIO driver and our Remote Audio Callback and is expected to improve the stream stability for any connected DAW or any APA (like our 15 band graphic EQ, 8x8 Gain matrix or even Equalizer APO for example)
16- BUS MODE: Button now use different color code to better see normal mode and special mode.
17- SETUP PROGRAM: DLL files in use should be uninstalled correctly (some DLL in used could be not deleted on uninstallation/re-installation).
18- INSTRUCTION Strip(i).gain +=1; was not working (in VM-Potato) if the SLIDER MODE option was set to RELATIVE mode.
19- STREAMER VIEW: add slider mode NO LINK to modify slider independently from each other.
20- MACRO-BUTTONS: Option “Store last buttons state” in system menu to store the current button state on application close, and recall it on application launch.
21- INTERNAL FX: Delay can be replaced by C5-Limiter (in system settings dialog box).
22- INTERNAL FX: A/B management was not working in Delay.
23- VBAN CHAT Dialog box was bugged under Potato (due to difference between vb2_ctl and vb2ctlb library).
24- VU-METERS: were not considering the entire signal in some cases and some sound peak could be not detected.

I am replying to this post, as it is the only one that mentions game pads with regard to macro buttons. I have a flight simulator to which I've connected two headsets with microphones, and I use Voicemeeter Banana to control them. This arrangement works well, but it results in continuous open mikes. To solve this, I set up macrobuttons to serve as push-to-talk (PTT) buttons. The instructor station has the computer keyboard and uses the SHIFT key as the PTT, but the pilot has only a button on the control wheel. This button is a joystick button that can be assigned to perform any number of tasks, but the Voicemeeter macro button shortcut only reads Game Pad buttons. Is there a way to map a joystick button to a corresponding Game Pad button? If not, could the HID interface be used? There is no documentation on how to use the latter.
