Pro-Q and Bank A/B problem?

I love FabFilter and have been using it in Ableton Live 7 (not 8) on a MacBookPro. I think I've discovered a problem or at the very least a feature request.

While working on a song I will often start out with EQ settings in bank A and copy them to bank B where I will try something different and compare between the two. Works great. However, if I save the song, then reload it... Bank B contains a copy of Bank A. Bank B with alternate tweaks is gone. This is too bad - since bank B may have been the preferred EQ setting. It would be extremely helpful if PRO-Q would save both banks with a song so further comparison could be done and because the user may prefer one of the two over the other.

As a point of reference I also work with Waves plugins which also allow tweaking Banks A and B. Both banks will save and restore when you reload a song in Ableton Live.

If I'm missing something, please advise.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the suggestion. You are correct: our plug-ins only save the 'active' state instead of both the A and B states. We'll look into improving this in the future.

Cheers,

Frederik (FabFilter)
