Improved GPU usage for rendering plugin interfaces, which offloaded some processing from the CPU. 3. Core Plugin Categories Included
Released in late 2020, Version 12 (V12) was primarily focused on future-proofing the Waves catalog. While it didn't necessarily launch a dozens of new plugins simultaneously, it overhauled the existing library to meet the hardware and software demands of the time, specifically high-resolution displays and new operating systems. 2. Key Features of the v27.11.2020 Update
Plugins were optimized for high-pixel-density displays, ensuring graphics remained sharp when scaled.
The specific update from November 27, 2020, included several stability fixes and functionality enhancements:
H-Delay, Abbey Road Chambers, Renaissance Verb, Manny Marroquin Delay Waves Tune Real-Time, Vocal Rider, Waves Harmony, DeEsser Modeling J37 Tape, Kramer Master Tape, Abbey Road TG12345 4. Compatibility and System Requirements
