I have a new computer with an intel 4097k cpu and Cubase 8.5.
TodayI installed Dune 2.5.
To my surprise nearly every preset produces short time cpu spikes with hearable crackles
athough the middle cpu consumption ist not so high.
The quality mode is in the lowest setting.
Dune 1.4 runs perfect without any crackles.
Is there a problem with Cubase 8.5 and Dune 2.5?
Can anybody help me?

Try changing the setting for multithreading in D2 and see if that changes anything.

[Gucky]

Thanks for your tip!
Where can I find the settings for multi threading in Dune2?

Bottom of main screen on gui.

[Gucky]

I switched now multithreading in Dune2 off and now all works very fine.
Many thanks for your help!

[Mark]

Good to hear. Enjoy

Hey do we just use the full install to update?

And will this effect patches in previous projects or do they stay the same?

Hi,
I am new here and I was wondering whether in a future you can give the option of buying your software with a monthly payment as lennart and serum are already doing...


Thanks so much,
all the best.

Dune 2.5 is now available This is an major update, free of charge for all Dune 2 users, and as usual can be downloaded from our support area:
http://www.synapse-audio.com/support.html

The following briefly describes what's new:

New Patches

The factory library has been extended to a total of 500 patches. The list of new patches can be found here:
http://www.synapse-audio.com/public/dun ... atches.pdf

Furthermore, as a little xmas gift, we added 250 Ambient patches by sound designer Armin Malbertz. The set is split into two parts A and B and can be accessed by clicking on "Soundbank". So the total number of patches that DUNE 2 comes with is now 750.

New Envelopes
How do u Load Soundbanks to Dune 2.5

The Filter ADSR section in version 2.5 gains an "Analog" switch, which uses a novel circuit-simulated envelope model for the filter and amplitude envelope. The circuit model is based on discrete vintage-analog electronics, and models the envelope with a very high accuracy.

The difference is usually best audible with fast attack times, where it creates a very "snappy" envelope. As an example patch, try the new patch "Precision Trance KS" then turn on/off the analog envelope to hear what it does to the sound.



New Filters

We added two new filter models named "Expander", a 12 dB type and a 24 dB type. What's different is that those filters are oversampled and can deal with saturation/drive much better than the previous filters. They also feature an improved resonance behavior above 10 khz and were designed to work best with the new analog envelopes.

AAX Version

Dune 2.5 is our first plugin that comes with an AAX version for ProTools 64-bit, both Mac and Windows. Please note that ProTools 11 or higher is required to run the AAX version of Dune 2.5.

Any tipps for updating from 2.4 to 2.5 in FL Studio 12.5.1? (without deinstallation)
I do installation without changing standard settings, but Fruity Wrapper shows 2.4?
Thank you.

[Teksonik]

I just checked and FL sees mine as 2.4 as well while DUNE 2 shows version 2.50 so perhaps Synapse forgot to flip a switch somewhere. I've never noticed this before as I normally don't pay much attention to what the Wrapper says.

Just click on the DUNE 2 interface where it says Synapse Dune and it will tell you what version number is installed....sort of. Synapse only allowed three digits to display the version number so even though you have the latest version it will only show 2.50 instead of 2.501

[teofilo]

Thank you. Now i find the inside DUNE 2 (Click on Synapse DUNE 2) 2.50 (Fruity Wrapper 2.4;o)

2.4 is the version of the VST SDK we use in DUNE 2. 2.50 is the verison of DUNE 2.5.
