Technical notes

The plug-ins report a few things that look odd until you know why. These are the explanations, written out rather than left on a product page.

Notes

Measurement and design, explained

AAX is now available for Mastering Suite and Tempo Delay, with both releases validated in Pro Tools.

Compatible is not the same as directly tested. StudioZIO Verified marks the host environments for which we have direct test evidence.

Formats and architectures are derived from the final shipped artifact, not filenames, summaries or assumptions.

Mastering Suite ships Universal. Tempo Delay is Apple Silicon only. The difference comes from the binaries, not the installer name.

From frozen artifact to live release: inspection, manifests, signing, validation, CI and public verification.

A useful ceiling-derived reference, provided it is not confused with a true-peak measurement of your audio.

A per-stage engineering decision, dressed up in most plug-ins as a quality dial you turn until the processor runs out.

AAX support is now fully available. This is the history of what the signing and validation path took.

One person, two finished plug-ins and a third in development, with the limits stated before the download rather than after it.

Put a quarter note on the left against a dotted eighth on the right and what you get is a pattern, not a widening effect.

The same filter setting is gentle on the first repeat and drastic by the eighth. That is not a fault. It is what inside the loop means.

The delay is still delayed. The number is about what the host has to move, not about what you hear.
