Redistributable binary bundles with:

• sushi binary
• MDA plugins suite in VST3 format
• configuration files

built for macOS x86-64, macOS arm64 (11.0 and later), Linux x86-64 AppImage.

$ xattr -rc sushi

after extracting the folder.

• TWINE updated to 0.4.0 with workgroup and EVL support
• Rapidjson updated to latest master branch
• Optimised State changes for VST3 plugins
• Crash logging with Sentry
• Device dump now includes sample rate and buffer size support

Fixes:

• LV2 worker request space too small
• LV2 logging not handled correctly
• Incorrect velocity scaling on Midi output from LV2 plugins
• VST3 plugin initialization order fix
• Parameter notification fix
• Incorrect file length display in WaveStreamer plugin
• Seek precision fix in WaveStreamer plugin
• Audio channel setup now only called when plugin is disabled
• Send and return crash at exit

Breaking changes:

• The argument --dump-portaudio-devs is changed to --dump-audio-devices and now requires a frontend to be specified (--coreaudio or --portaudio).
• Failure to set priority and/or workgroup on macOS will cause Sushi to exit.

Redistributable binary bundles with:

• sushi binary
• MDA plugins suite in VST3 format
• configuration files

built for macOS x86-64 (10.15 and later), macOS arm64 (11.0 and later), Linux x86-64 AppImage.

On macOS, you need to clear the quarantine bit if you download the file from a browser by doing:

$ xattr -rc sushi

after extracting the folder.

New features:

• clang 13+ support
• gcc 10+ support
• macOS support
• VST2 & VST3 bundle support for macOS
• Portaudio frontend
• RtMIDI frontend
• MIDI clock output
• Processor state save & reload
• Plugin binary state setting

• Refactor track modes w.r.t. channel configuration
• "pre" and "post" tracks to process engine channels before/after dispatching them to tracks
• Audio frontends pause/restart
• Switch from liblo to oscpack for OSC
• Option to set target OSC IP
• Channel specification in send&return internal plugins
• Extended parameter notifications, now multiple controllers can be updated easily at the same time
• LV2 parameter output support
• Command-line switches to disable OSC and gRPC
• Use vcpkg to manage most third-party dependencies
• Refactored CMake configuration, now using SUSHI_ for options prefix
• Ableton Link updated to v3.0.5
• TWINE updated to v0.3.2
• VST3 SDK updated to v3.7.6

Fixes:

• Workaround for delayed ALSA MIDI event output
• Crash in MIDI dispatcher when deleting track connections
• Various JSON parsing fixes
• Memory leak in VST3 wrapper
• Issue with setting different samplerate from JSON and audio frontend
• Slow response to large numbers of VST3 parameter changes
• Peakmeter formatted level parameter scaling

Breaking changes:

• All build options renamed to SUSHI_XXX_YYY from XXX_YYY
• Vcpgk initalization step required at first build. See README.md
• Track channel config has been simplified. The JSON "mode" member has been replaced with an integer "channels" member. To create a multibus track, an additional member "multibus" must be set to true and the number of buses specified with the "buses" member.
• Tracks now only report the number of channels (and buses in the multibus case) and input and output channels and busses are assumed to be the same.
• All instances of "busses" in JSON config and gRPC API have been corrected to "buses"
