Waves 2.8.1 Released for Pro Tools TDM Systems

December, 12 1999 Digidesign and Waves are pleased to announce that all compatibility issues between Digidesign and Waves products will be addressed by using the newly released Waves Waveshell 2.8.1 and Pro Tools 5.0 If there is a need to run Pro Tools 4.3.x please continue to use DAE version 3.4.2 f9 and the new KS Waves Waveshell version 2.8.1 and the 2.8.1 plug-ins. This will address DSP memory management problems that users of Pro Tools|24 MIX and Waves TDM Plug-Ins had been experiencing. Specifically, this will address the DAE memory overflow that may occur, typically in larger Pro Tools Sessions in which many Plug-Ins are instantiated, when a session is closed and reopened and DSP memory shuffling is performed. Please refer to the Waves 2.8.1 Release Notes for more information. “The partnership between Digidesign and Waves is essential, since the Waveshell and Waves TDM Plug-Ins are a Development Partner solution of choice for so many Pro Tools Users,” says Ed Gray, Manager of Digidesign’s Developer Program. “It’s gratifying to see Digidesign and Waves work to diagnose what proved to be a complex technical issue, and to quickly solicit testing and feedback from our mutual users.” Orly Nesher, Director of Sales & Marketing at Waves added, “We look forward to cooperating with Digidesign as our two high-end product lines continue to evolve and improve.” Waveshell 2.8.1 and their TDM updaters are available at www.waves.com Note: When changing DAE/Waves versions, always trash the DAE Prefs folder (System Folder/Preferences) and the WaveShell-DAE Preferences file.
