Wave Emulation 0.1.8 improves tuning, front-panel editing, and Performance storage on macOS Ventura 13.0 and later.

  • Keeps saved Sound parameters, including oscillator octave, intact when switching Performances and layers.
  • Preserves Performance names during Store and clears inactive layers when overwriting a Performance.
  • Makes Store Cancel and mode LEDs follow the firmware page.
  • Routes Instrument Edit faders to the firmware's current page, preventing TuneTable edits from changing Transpose or other fields.
  • Aligns TuneTable slider transitions with the displayed selection and keeps HMT pitch stable for held and new notes.
  • Adds window zoom shortcuts and a shortcut to hide the lower keyboard area.

The DMG contains universal Apple Silicon and Intel builds of the standalone app, AU, VST3, and PACE-wrapped AAX plugin. Supply your own Wave OS 1.700 firmware and sound floppy images; they are not included.

Quit your DAW before installing. Runtime testing on macOS Ventura remains pending.

Known issue: Shift plus display button 7 in Store may not open the firmware maintenance menu.

Windows x64

The Windows ZIP includes the portable standalone EXE and VST3 plug-in, with improved window startup, shutdown, and UI refresh when display refresh notifications are unavailable.

  • Extract Wave-Emulation-0.1.8-Windows-x64.zip, then run Standalone/Wave Emulation.exe.
  • Copy the entire VST3/Wave Emulation.vst3 folder into C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3, then rescan plug-ins in your DAW.
  • Supply your own Wave OS 1.700 firmware and Wave SET disks. Firmware, ROM archives, factory sound SETs, and disk images are not included.
