How to update FabFilter plugins
FabFilter publishes every installer on its own site, which makes it one of the easiest vendors to keep current. PluginHub checks your installed versions against FabFilter's current releases and can download and run the update for you.
How PluginHub handles FabFilter
- Automatic version checks. PluginHub reads FabFilter's published versions and compares them with what is installed on your Mac or PC. Pro-Q, Pro-L, Pro-C, Pro-R, Saturn, Timeless, Volcano and the others are all covered.
- Install Manager. Because FabFilter publishes its installers openly, PluginHub can download the installer straight from FabFilter's own server and run it, on its own or as part of a batch with other vendors. Nothing passes through PluginHub's servers.
- One license covers all your FabFilter plugins on the FabFilter side; PluginHub only touches the installer, never your FabFilter account.
The steps
- Open PluginHub and run a check. The FabFilter card lists any plugin with a newer version.
- Click Download on the plugin, or Queue all to take every FabFilter update at once.
- Click Install. Your Mac asks for your password once for the whole batch, the installers run, and PluginHub writes a receipt of what changed.
