https://padworks.io/news Pad Works news: plugin releases, free updates and fixes for the macOS catalog (VST3 / AU), in the order they shipped. en Wed, 16 Sep 2026 12:00:00 +0000 https://padworks.io/news/damp-is-out https://padworks.io/news/damp-is-out Wed, 16 Sep 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Every room has one. A guitar body that booms on the same note, a snare with a ring that never quite dies, a vocal that spikes on the loudest word. Static EQ takes it out everywhere, including the takes where it was never a problem. DAMP listens while the track plays and only moves when the resonance actually shows up. When it stops ringing, the EQ is back to flat. What you recorded stays what you recorded. Set DE-HARSH and let it work, or open ADVANCED for attack, release, detection and stereo linking. DELTA lets you hear exactly what it's removing. Works on a single track, a bus, or the whole mix. https://padworks.io/news/1-0-3 https://padworks.io/news/1-0-3 Thu, 10 Sep 2026 12:00:00 +0000 1.0.3 is out for the whole catalog. Your presets and window size now come back the way you left them, in every plugin. PUMP and REPEAT's toggles read the way they actually behave. MORPHY corner fix. FILTER: SYNC removed for now — true LFO sync arrives in 1.1. The new installer removes older copies, so your DAW stops seeing two versions of the same plugin. Free update for existing owners.
