Upgrading to Twin 3

Upgrading from Twin 1 or 2 to Twin 3 is safe and easy: installing Twin 3 will not replace or delete the previous versions of the plug-in. All versions will co-exist and can be used at the same time. This ensures that you can open old songs that use Twin 1 or 2 without problems.

Twin 1/2 presets

All presets created with Twin 1 or 2 can be loaded in Twin 3, although they may sound slightly different due to changes in the new plug-in version. If you upgraded from version 1 or 2 to the new version, your original presets will be accessible via the V1/V2 Preset Folders item in the preset browser. See also Loading presets.

Replacing a Twin 2 or 1 instance by Twin 3

If you are working on a song and want to replace an earlier Twin version instance with the new Twin 3, we recommend to do the following:

1. Open the earlier Twin instance, right-click the preset button at the top, and click Copy in the popup menu that appears.
2. Remove the earlier Twin instance and replace it with Twin 3.
3. Right-click the preset button in Twin 3, and click Paste to paste the copied settings.

Note: to use copy and paste, you need the latest version of Twin 2. Twin version 1 does not support copy and paste. In this case, simply save the current setting as a FabFilter preset in the Twin v1 preset folder. Then, load the preset that you just created into Twin 3 via the V1 Preset Folder submenu in the preset menu.

Automation

Because the feature set of Twin 3 has changed fundamentally, any automation data that has been written by a Twin 1 or 2 instance cannot be read correctly by Twin 3.
