Airwindows Galactic and poly

Just installed the latest firmware and doing the easy stuff first. Made a simple 4 voice poly Plaits tester using Yamamote mixer as a send/return bus to feed a couple of Airwindows fx.

Works correctly in VCV on the Mac. Same patch on the MM works ok but only the first voice of the 4 gets sent to the Airwindows reverb. It seems stuck in monophonic mode. In VCV there are various options for setting polyphony is Airwindows (I’ve set it to use stereo in->stereo out although it worked correctly without doing that). Can’t find the equivalent setting in the MM plugin version.

Am I missing something obvious here or is it a bug in how Airwindows handles poly patches?

Ah, thanks. I forget Airwindows used a different format and hadn’t updated the plugin. I’ll do it now!

This should work now:

Each Airwindows module has a “Channels” setting that can be set to Mono (default), or Poly. In Mono mode, all the poly voices are summed and sent to the FX, which then outputs one stereo voice. In Poly mode, there is a separate FX for each voice, so CPU load can skyrocket.
