Get ready to revolutionise your audio workflow! We're thrilled to share some exciting news from our friends at Blue Cat Audio. They've just dropped a massive update for their Fader Hub software, bringing it to version 1.2, and it's a game-changer for anyone looking to collaborate on audio projects, whether you're in the same room or across the globe.
The Future of Network Audio Collaboration is Here!
Fader Hub 1.2 isn't just an update; it's a major leap forward in how musicians, producers, and engineers can work together. Forget the headaches of latency and out-of-sync tracks. This new version tackles those challenges head-on, making distributed recording and real-time collaboration smoother than ever before.
Imagine this: You're laying down a killer guitar track, your bandmate is recording drums from their studio across town, and your vocalist is adding harmonies from a different city. With Fader Hub 1.2, all those recordings can be kept in perfect sync, almost as if you were all in the same room.
Key Features That Will Transform Your Workflow:
Blue Cat Audio has packed Fader Hub 1.2 with incredible new features designed to streamline your collaborative process:

- Synchronised Transport: Start and stop playback across all connected applications with built-in clock latency compensation for a truly real-time experience.
- Synchronised Recording: Record tracks in perfect sync across multiple devices on your network. Fader Hub 1.2 automatically compensates for latency, ensuring all individual recorded files are perfectly aligned.
- Halved Latency for Online Jams: Fader Hub 1.2 can now synchronise a backing track or click over the network, effectively halving the perceived latency for real-time collaboration. This means online remote collaboration is now practical over much longer distances!
