Release notes

Volume and Wah 95 blocks connect to your expression pedal automatically, and the tuner stays muted when you change presets.

Fixes and changes

• Adding a Volume or Wah 95 block connects it to the expression pedal (volume on CC 11, wah on CC 1). Presets you already have connect when opened, and connections you made yourself stay as they are
• Trying to put a pedal’s number on a switch now tells you where that number belongs
• With the tuner open on Mute, changing presets or resuming no longer lets the sound through
• With a MIDI Captain connected, tap the first sentence in the MIDI window to get the setup files and install steps
• The tempo switch (Per preset or Global) is no longer in the metronome window; it is in Settings > General

The Quality / CPU setting on NAM blocks now takes effect, and more audio interfaces show all their inputs.

Fixes and changes

• Quality / CPU on NAM blocks now takes effect. Lite runs the capture at a lighter size to save CPU, and Auto switches to it when the device runs hot. The cell is locked for captures that cannot change size
• The tone shows when a capture runs at a different sample rate than it was made for (such as a 48k model at 44.1k) and when it runs at the lighter size
• The Quality / CPU cell that did nothing on Preamp and Body IR is gone
• Audio interfaces that are not in the list now offer every input and output the device reports, so a Babyface Pro with the guitar on inputs 3/4 works
• Input and output layouts added for interfaces from RME, Audient, Focusrite (Scarlett 4th Gen), MOTU, Universal Audio (Volt), Steinberg, Roland, SSL and Arturia
• Undo now covers path I/O, output routing and MIDI mappings, and leaves the tempo where it is
• MIDI Captain on firmware 5 (Feather RP2040) now shows Apply and Switch lights in the MIDI window
• Resuming after unplugging and replugging an audio interface no longer fails with “Audio could not start”

Use your other AUv3 effects as blocks in the chain, plus a new Parametric EQ block.

New in Pro

• AUv3 Hosting: drop any installed AUv3 effect into the chain with PLUG-IN and open its own screen; its settings are saved with the preset
• Insert or Send on a plug-in block — Send feeds the Space return and keeps Trails
• Each scene keeps its own plug-in knob values
• A plug-in per device — iPhone, iPad and Mac each use their own plug-in in the same block
• Bell or Shelf on Global EQ bands 1 and 5

New for everyone

• Parametric EQ block — drag right on the curve, with a live analyzer of the incoming sound
• Attack and Release on Auto Wah
• TAP and MIDI tap tempo average the last ten taps, so a steady foot holds the tempo
• Changing scenes no longer bends the pitch of delay repeats
• A block made in a newer version passes the sound through unchanged and asks you to update

NAM FX 2.0 adds Pro, a one-time purchase shared by iPhone, iPad and Mac. Everything that was in 1.x stays free.

New in Pro

• AUv3 plug-in for hosts and DAWs
• Multi-track looper with up to four tracks
• Backing Tracks with scene cues, section loop, key and speed
• Tone Edit and Tone Match
• Global EQ with a live analyzer
• Hardware FX Loop, Wet Duck and setlists
• Device Sync: keep iPhone, iPad and Mac the same through iCloud

New for everyone

• iCloud sync for each device on its own — it comes back when you reinstall or change device
• Backup and restore — keep up to three in iCloud or export a file, and choose what to bring back
• Undo and redo
• TONE3000 account lists, and cabinet IRs from TONE3000 in the IR tab
• Tempo and TAP in the top bar, a 32-frame buffer option, and many layout fixes on iPhone

Fixes audio that would not come back after leaving the app.

Fixes and changes

• Resuming works after you leave the app to listen to music; audio no longer stays locked until a force quit.
• The “audio ready” notice appears once, and the incorrect “paused” message is fixed.
• The app asks iOS for the USB audio interface directly, so it is used even when the system holds another input.
• You can play while listening to YouTube or a music app.
• The LIVE STOMP assignment screen responds correctly to touch and scrolling.
• Recording a loop to the bar locks the drum and looper tempo, and you can tap to see why.
• Trails appears as a parameter row on reverb and delay blocks.

The first release for iPhone and iPad.
