Play 5.01 released

The release notes link doesn't have anything on 5.01, but I suspect it is for Cubase 9 compatibility at least.

    Thanks for the heads up.
     
    I was having a problem rendering a composition this morning using 2 violin and 1 horn legato tracks (Play 5.0).
    It sounded fine in Splat but the rendered file sounded like all the violin/horn tracks had been put through a weird filter with a long attack! I saw this thread, updated to Play 5.01 and all was fine!
     
    Cheers

    I checked the EW Installation Center program and the EastWest Support Center web site and no sign of a newer version than 5.0.0
    Did they pull it?

    I'm not seeing it either.
    My Play 5.0 says there are no updates.

    could be mac only, if it's only dealing with an apple/cubase issue...

    I downloaded/installed it, so wasn't Mac only.  The about box inside the EW Installation Center claims my Play version is 5.0.0 but inside SONAR the about box of the actual plugin says 5.0.1 built on Dec 8, 2016

    Too bad on Windows issues. Exciting additions, nevertheless!

    I was having issues with dropped notes and weird artefacts when trying to bounce Play tracks, so its nice to see that bug is (hopefully) fixed.

    Bounce/freeze in real-time, not fast bounce/freeze.

    If you were like me and updated to Play 5.0.1 "early/quickly" (before they pulled it) you will need to go to the website and manually download and re-install.  They re-released 5.0.1 (as 5.0.1a) but didn't increase/change the version number.  So the Installation center won't say there is a new version/won't install a new version.  There is a new version however, 5.0.1a you can download from the website.  It has a build date of Dec 20 (vs the Dec 8 version I mention above).  Before I manually updated it, when my Composer Cloud sub ended (on Christmas day) I lost the Ohmicide and Amp simulator features.  The 5.0.1a Dec 20 version brought them back.  But both versions claim to be 5.0.1 in the about box/etc.
     
    And yes, I'm also seeing notes being cut off reported on VI -- though it seems to mainly be in saved projects.  New projects/new instances it doesn't seem to happen (or isn't as easy to make it happen).  Saved projects come in with this very odd cutting off of notes.  What is exactly wrong isn't clear but it's not right.  I'm considering digging up an older version and going backwards.

    I switched back to fast bounce yesterday using the Dec20 5.0.1. Works again!
