    v1.6.1 - trials are now per plugin

    • Every plugin now has its own seven-day trial. Before this, one trial covered the whole suite: three days with any plugin ended it for all the others, so trying one meant losing the chance to hear the rest.
    • Shane Analog Delay: CHARACTER is now on the panel - the control existed but had no place in the interface. Shane EQ: the COLOR list no longer truncates. Shane DS: LAW labels no longer overlap.
    • Shane BusComp: the VU needle stays inside the meter window. Shane 73: knob pointers move cleanly against the printed scale.
    • Free plugins: a link to the rest of the suite in the preset menu.
    • All 44 plugins rebuilt, re-signed and notarized for macOS (Universal) and Windows. Free for existing owners - re-download from your Gumroad library.

    v1.6 - every plugin updated

    • Shane FET: detector rebuilt from a measured step table of a classic FET compressor. Shane EQ: COLOR mode with seven reference mastering-EQ curves plus two vintage tube-EQ models.
    • Shane BusComp: manual release times were 10x too slow - fixed; knee measured from a console bus compressor reference. Shane TubeComp: even harmonics restored; front-panel knobs now turn as one piece with the panel art.
    • Shane Multi: a new detector mode with measured ballistics. Shane Limiter: six measured release modes. Shane DS: a constant-reduction de-essing mode. Shane Analog Delay: measured character section. Shane Dist: odd/even voicing fixed.
    • Shane Autotune: intermittent clicks fixed (MIX is now the correction amount). Shane EP: onset latency 350 ms to under 7 ms. Shane 60: every preset on the octave.
    • All 44 plugins rebuilt, re-signed and notarized for macOS (Universal) and Windows. Free for existing owners - re-download from your Gumroad library.

    Shane Tape 424 v1.5

    • New LOW LATENCY switch: 24 ms → 4 ms (192 samples at 48 kHz). Wow and flutter unchanged; only heavy PITCH settings get slightly grainier. Added because a user asked for it.
    • Windows zip now ships with an installer (Install.bat) that places both VST3 and AAX.
