Hyperion 1.44 version update

How To Update

You will now see two installers listed in the download manager, one for Hyperion and another one for Hyperion factory content. Please make sure to install both.

If you do not have download manager installed yet, please download via your account area from www.tracktion.com.

New Factory Content

Factory content for v1.44 of Hyperion and onwards will be installed with a separately downloadable HyperionFactoryData installer.

The new factory content does not include new patches, however many of the factory patches are updated with enhancements, especially in terms of sustain pedal assignment and some tuning for the flute type patches.

Please make sure to run the factory data installer before launching Hyperion.

Hyperion will by default be set to list the patches at the new location - and the patch list will be empty unless you install the updated factory content, or point the Hyperion patch browser back to the old location (which is not recommended as you will not then get the improved patches).

When running the new factory content installer, patches and the user guide will be installed to:

Mac: /Users/Shared/Wavsequencer_Hyperion
Windows /"YourUserDirectory"/Documents/Wavesequencer_Hyperion

The factory patches will be located in the subdirectory - Patches/FactoryPatches

Coming From Previous Versions

The original factory content folder from versions 1.43 and prior release will not be deleted by the installer (it's your choice to delete it if you don't need the original files or any content you saved there).

If you have saved your own new patches in that folder and want to browse them with the new updated factory content you will need to copy them to the new factory patches folder.
Hyperion's patch browser has been updated to more clearly show the currently selected patches path - and the number of patches found within that folder.

Hyperion still currently only shows the patch content for the currently selected folder, and does not show sub-folder patch content, so if you have multiple separate patch folders, you need to manually switch locations in the Hyperion UI to browse those.

On first launch, Hyperion v1.44 will copy the 'favorites' and 'favoriteNodes' data files over to a newly named application support folder too (Wavesequencer_Hyperion). Your favorites will be preserved, as the factory patches (and your own newly created patches) maintain the same unique IDs as before.
