Nils‘ K1v – v1.26 released

I’ve just released Nils‘ K1v version 1.2.6, which contains the following fixes:

  • [Fix] Limit maximum voice count to 32 voices per Multi section / Single to prevent very high CPU usage for sounds with a very large release time
  • [Fix] Hold Pedal behavior was incorrect, voices were stopped for notes that were still held while hold pedal is released
  • [Accuracy] Fix incorrect Autobend & Vibrato behavior when compared to the hardware. On the hardware, they are not independent per
    voice, instead, the first voice defines the modulation for all subsequent voices / notes

The new version can be obtained from the Project page

Nils‘ K1v version 1.2.5 has been released, which contains the following improvements / fixes:

  • [Fix] VST3 x64 version did not store/restore plugin state
  • [Fix] If global receive channel was omni and a Multi was selected, all multi channels received notes on channel 1 instead of the ones selected in the multi parts

Nils‘ K1v – v1.2.4 released

Nils‘ K1v version 1.2.4 has been released, which contains the following improvements / fixes:

  • [Fix] VST3 version of plugin was not detected/rejected on Mac OS
  • [Fix] Be more tolerant when receiving patches via SysEx (MidiQuest might generate invalid SysEx packets that we can work around and still load)

Nils‘ K1v: Version 1.14 released – Multi support!

I’ve just released version 1.14 of Nils‘ K1v – The Kawai K1 emulation VSTi/AU.

Biggest change is that it now also supports Multi presets. I added the 32 factory Multis and all Multis from the ROM cards, resulting in 384 Multi presets in total.
As a sum, Nils‘ K1v now contains 1352 presets.

Nils‘ K1v – Multi Play Mode

Of course, Multis can be edited, too. To add all of the new features, I modified the UI slightly. The Source Mute buttons have been moved to the Single Edit page, making space for the new Buttons MULTI and SYSTEM.

I’ve been able to fit four Multi sections on one page, arrow buttons allow to switch between sections 1-4 and 5-8.

Multis work as they do on the Kawai K1 hardware. Up to eight Singles can be combined in various ways to create either rich layered sounds or multiple zones on the keyboard.

The only difference between a K1 and K1v is that in Poly Mode VR (meaning variable), the polyphony is unlimited, while it was still limited to 16 or 8 voices in total on a K1 hardware.

Nils‘ K1v – Multi Edit Mode

The SYSTEM page is a new page that allows to change global parameters, basically it’s a copy of the K1 Midi Settings and supports specifying a Midi receive channel (previous versions always ran in Omni mode) and to disable Program Change processing, Sysex & more.

Global settings are saved as part of the DAW project.

Besides the improvements as pointed out above, some additional things have been added, such as cursor key preset navigation (Hallo Jürgen!) and of course, bugs have been fixed, too. The full change log can be found below.
