Hello, we've had reports of that but it is v0.6.0. Uninstall the previous version and reinstall v0.6.0...e en if it still displays v0.5.3 it is indeed v0.6.0. We will be addressing this quirk in the next build.

Amin, the sound source will show which guides are naturally a part of it...we then just "polish" them or redirect them to an alternate slope if called for. Generally speaking -4.5, brown and -7.5 are widely used for most sound sources. - Menno

Hello Amin, glad you like the streams and are finding them helpful. I will stream again tomorrow (Thursday) morning at 9am PST...please feel free to ask me anything you like then as well. In the preliminary EQ at 100% Spectrum Smoothing I was looking for the "Chest" and "Throat" lobes of the vocal performance and setting the two frequencies (165hrz / 326hrz) to them...the other crossover points remained as they were. The "ceiling" is just that...a ceiling that should not be surpassed...however it is ok if the natural shape has random "dips". For large frequency dips you can align them with other ceilings if need be...for example, in your screenshot, the "base" of the high frequency dip could be lined up with -7.5 instead of brown and the throat-lobe. I can demonstrate again tomorrow morning if you like...just please remind me during the stream and I will address it. I hope this helps and I look forward to speaking with you tomorrow. - Menno

Hello, that partly depends on the genre/sonic-content of the Bass. For example, the overall sonic balance of an overdriven Rock elec. bass may follow a -4.5 or brown ceiling, whereas an R&B or Reggae bass may follow a -7.5 or -9 ceiling...a sub or Dub bass may follow a -10.5 or -12 ceiling. In the end you'll follow the ceiling that best fits the sonic tonality or genre you're going for.

@dataMountain Yes it will...on YouTube.

Mark, my team will be spending the day tomorrow trying replicate your situation to figure out why MM isn't appearing in Abelton for you. You can also reach out to me directly at: menno@ayaicinc.com

Hello Ali, I will soon begin streaming on Twitch. In my "Master Class with Menno" I'll be using/demonstrating COS Pro & Mix Monolith in various real-world mix situations. You'll quickly have a full grasp of the amazing power of these two plug-ins and how the enhance working with all of your other plug-ins. I use the guides constantly on every element so you'll soon understand how to work with them easily with or without presets. Please visit: www.twitch.tv/ayaicware and follow us for notifications on upcoming stream times. - Menno

Mark, Not a problem. If you're on WIN please open your control panel and select - Uninstall Applications. If you're on a MAC you can simply drag the application to the trash to uninstall. There are plenty of YouTube videos detailing both if need be. - Menno

Mark, Please do a full uninstall of the previous Mix Monolith before installing the new v0.6.0. If it still does not appear try rescanning your plug-ins in Ableton. - Menno

Hello Chris, Yes...you do have the right one. My team accidentally forgot to update the text info during the last build so although it's v0.6.0 it displays as v0.5.3. They will be creating a new build shortly that displays the correct version. Thank you and happy mixing. Also, if you haven't already done so, please visit https://www.twitch.tv/ayaicware and subscribe in order to receive notifications of my upcoming stream times. Best Regards, Menno

Yes...COS Pro and Mix Monolith now have full M1 chip support.

Bonjour PhG, "COS Pro" et "Mix Monolith" sont tous deux compatibles M1. - Menno / Ayaicware

Here is the status of the update : both plugins are M1 compatible size of the 64 bits plugins has been fixed in all installers Spectrum size has been fixed in COS Windows Bypass is ok with Mix Monolith removed 32 bits AAX Conform button is red in COS Pro About the bugs : Logic compatibility : we have a large amount of support about that. 99% of the time, issuer is solved either with a reboot or by manually validating the plugin in Logic’s plugin's manager black interface : most of the time, the issue is solved by updating graphic card’s drivers (which are cometimes buggy..). MM’s transparent UI in FL Studio windows : fixed "The Ducking and Group settings are gone when I close a project and open it up again. (macOS)": fixed Crash when pressing Mix button -> fixed Nothing happens when pressing Mix button -> fixed

Hello, unfortunately the current Covid climate has slowed things down a bit but I'm happy to say that we will be releasing a new installer with many upgrades, including full M1 support, within a week or so. We will also begin creating more videos by the end of the month. We are dedicated to providing the very best in audio tools and instructional content...I appreciate you patience. - Menno / Ayaicware

Yes...very soon. We have already fixed that bug along with a few others...unfortunately due to the current Covid climate, final testing is taking a bit longer than expected. That said, we should have an updated installer by mid/end of February. I appreciate your patience.

Instrumental tracks work will with your master-fader Monolith set to -20LUFS. If you are bouncing down to a reel-to-reel 2-track begin by creating a Monolith preset using a 1kHrz tone and calibrating it (setting Monolith target LUFS) so that your 2-track VU reads -18dbfs. This preset should then work well for all material, Song & Instrumental.

Hello Marc, we will be releasing updated installers of both COS Pro and Mix Monolith within a week or so (just doing final testing) that should take care of the issue. I'll keep you posted. - Menno

Jhed, we are working on M1 chip compatibility that doesn't require the use of Rosetta. I'll keep you posted.

For the time being, please make sure your audio buffer is set to it's highest setting when mixing (2048 or 4096). COS Pro incorporates a large amount of real-time analysis and a large audio buffer setting ensures the highest amount of cpu resources for your plug-ins.
