## β¨ What's New in v1.3.1
Version 1.3.1 refines the core experience with a focus on stability and speed for live performers.
* **β‘οΈ Instant Preset Switching (Hot-Swap)**: Change between presets containing different plugin settings instantly, with no audio dropouts or glitches. This is perfect for switching vocal effects between songs during a live stream.
* **π§ Smart Change Detection**: The app is now intelligent enough to ignore parameter changes from non-editable plugins (like key finders), preventing unnecessary "Do you want to save?" prompts.
* **π‘οΈ Robust State Management**: Preset saving and loading logic has been overhauled to correctly include the UI lock state, ensuring your setup is restored exactly as you left it.
* **π Bug Fixes & Stability**: General improvements to plugin hosting and preset management to ensure a smoother, more reliable experience.

## π‘ Pro-Tip: Setting Up Key Detection Plugins
For the best experience, it is highly recommended to place key detection plugins (like **Antares Auto-Key**, **Waves Key Detector**, etc.) in the **first plugin slot of the Music track**.
The application is specifically optimized to ignore state changes from this slot. This prevents the app from asking you to save your preset after the plugin automatically detects a new key, ensuring a truly seamless workflow.
---
## π¦ Installation
**Option 1: Download Prebuilt Release (Recommended)**
* Visit the [**Releases**](https://github.com/DEVCodeWithAI/idolLiveAudio/releases) section for the latest version.
* Download the appropriate `.zip` package.
* Extract and run the application.
**Option 2: Compile from Source**
* Requires a C++20 compatible compiler.
* Requires the [JUCE Framework](https://juce.com).
* Open the `idolLiveAudio.jucer` file with the Projucer.
* Export the project to your preferred IDE (Visual Studio, Xcode, etc.).
* Build and run.
---
## β οΈ Important Notice for Waves Users
If you have a large collection of Waves plugins (e.g., Waves Ultimate), the initial plugin scan can take a significant amount of time. **This is normal!** Please do not close the application during the scan.
* **Estimated Scan Time:**
* Small plugin set: A few seconds to 2 minutes.
* Large plugin set (Waves Ultimate): Up to 10-15 minutes.
β
The scan only runs once. After completion, idolLiveAudio saves the results to a local file for much faster startups in the future.
---
## π§ Recommended Audio Setup
For the best experience, a dedicated external sound card with low-latency ASIO drivers is highly recommended.
**If you do not have a professional sound card, we strongly suggest installing these free tools:**
* [**VB-Cable**](https://vb-audio.com/Cable/) β Virtual audio cable.
* [**ASIO4ALL**](https://www.asio4all.org/) β Universal ASIO driver for low-latency audio.
* [**Voicemeeter Banana**](https://vb-audio.com/Voicemeeter/banana.htm) β Virtual audio mixer and routing software.
