Is it possible to replace Q with Q2 in an automatic way

Or use same adjustment in Q2 as a start

Asmund Maeland

I came here to ask the same question! Would love to have Q2 replace all instances of Q in my current sessions, preserving the settings. Is that possible??

Thanks for making fantastic plug ins!

I believe they said there are changes that happened under the hood that makes the compatibility only possible by having 2 separate versions, meaning, one can't replace the other. But I could be wrong.

That's correct. Pro-Q 2 can read version 1 presets but they won't sound exactly the same due to algorithmic changes we've made. To avoid subtle differences in e.g. a finished mix we made it possible to use v1 and v2 side by side.

Hi!
The new bundle installer doesn't include Pro-Q. Any future clean install using this bundle would mean looking for the older version of Pro-Q to be able to load older projects.

Is this correct?
Is Pro-Q being discarded from future updates and bug fixes?

I think it should still be considered as part of the bundle due to compatibility and algorithmic differences mentioned. And specially considered for updates onto future versions of DAWs.
