Upgrading to Volcano 2

Upgrading from Volcano 1.x to Volcano 2 is safe and easy: installing Volcano 2 will not replace or delete the previous Volcano 1.x plug-in. Both versions will co-exist and can both be used at the same time. This ensures that you can open old songs that use Volcano 1.x without problems!

Volcano 1.x presets

All presets created with Volcano 1.x can be loaded in Volcano 2. If you upgraded from Volcano 1 to the new version, your original Volcano 1 presets will be accessible via the V1 Preset Folder item in the preset menu. See also Loading presets.

Replacing a Volcano 1.x instance by Volcano 2

If you are working on a song and want to replace a Volcano 1 instance with the new Volcano 2, we advise you to do the following:

First, save the current setting of the Volcano 1.x instance as a FabFilter preset in the Volcano 1 preset folder.
Then, remove the Volcano 1 instance and add Volcano 2 in its place.
Finally, load the V1 preset that you just created into Volcano 2 via the preset menu.

Automation

Because the feature set of Volcano 2 has changed drastically, any automation data that has been written by a Volcano 1 instance cannot be read correctly by Volcano 2.
