• Some third-party AudioUnit plug-ins may cause crashes, strange noises, or other problems. We strive to sup-
port plug-ins as thoroughly as possible but due to the many variables (Computer platform, OS version, Mixbus
version, plug-in version, etc) it is not possible to guarantee that all 3rd-party plug-ins will work as expected on
your system.
• Mixbus on OSX reports a generic "can't load session" message instead of the more explicit "out of ports" mes-
sage that appears on Linux. If you get the "can't load session" dialog, check the Audio Setup tab, under
• Options/Number of Ports, verify that the number is higher than 128 (512 is a good number).
• Ripple Edit does not work on automation
• Master bus "lookahead" latency is not compensated. It should be disabled when recording or bouncing tracks.
Mixbus 2.0.4
NEW FEATURES:
None
FIXES:
• K14 meter display was incorrect in v2; it is now fixed.
• MIDI bindings to Mixbus knobs are now saved/recalled with the session.
• Disabled region fade-ins would be re-enabled on session load. This has been fixed.
• Mixbus strips will now remember their visible "width" when a session is saved and recalled.
• When clicking to adjust a fade length, the user had to be careful not to click on the fade in/out lines which
would cause the fade grab to be ignored. This has been fixed.
• Import of filenames with certain characters (such as ö) in the filename or file path would fail. The file could be
auditioned before importing, but the import to Mixbus would fail. This has been fixed.
IMPROVEMENTS:
• Mac OSX 10.7 (Lion) is now supported
• When Mixbus strips are narrowed, show the name instead of mixbus #.
• Delete was implemented as a "cut" operation, which replaced any contents in the Paste buffer. This has been
changed so that Delete does not modify what is in the Paste buffer.
• When clicking to add a gain point, hold Cmd/Ctrl to add the new point on the existing line
• Mixbus automatically creates multiple backup files automatically. A maximum of one session file per hour is
stored. This operates in addition to the existing "backup" file.
• Selecting a region in the editor will now highlight it in the region list.
KNOWN ISSUES:
• Sometimes closing a session will cause a crash. This affects operations like "Open" and "Recent" and snap-
shot-switching when a session is already open. This has been fixed in Ardour3 but will not appear in Mixbus
until we adopt the Ardour3 platform. In the interim, we suggest that you always "Quit" Mixbus before opening a
new session or snapshot.
• On Mac OSX Intel, Mixbus crashes if you try to enter a metadata "Tag" on a file in the Import dialog.
• On systems with 2 monitors the primary monitor (the one with the OSX menu) must be on the left or some
plug-in windows will display outside of their enclosing windows.
• Some third-party AudioUnit plug-ins may cause crashes, strange noises, or other problems. We strive to sup-
port plug-ins as thoroughly as possible but due to the many variables (Computer platform, OS version, Mixbus
version, plug-in version, etc) it is not possible to guarantee that all 3rd-party plug-ins will work as expected on

• Mixbus on OSX reports a generic "can't load session" message instead of the more explicit "out of ports" mes-
sage that appears on Linux. If you get the "can't load session" dialog, check the Audio Setup tab, under
Options/Number of Ports, verify that the number is higher than 128 (512 is a good number).
• Time alignment when recording is not always correct, especially when there are plugins with latency on the
mixbuses. When recording, plugins with long latency should be avoided on the mixbuses until we resolve this
problem.
• Ripple Edit does not work on automation
