    What's new

    Details pages, search, filter and sort menus, and a prompt before MPC restarts.

    • Details: tap a card for its screenshot, version, size, release date, downloads, CPU, tested devices, description and what's new. Tap a tag there to list plugins with that tag.
    • Search: 🔍 opens an on-screen keyboard; matches names, authors and tags as you type.
    • Filter and sort menus at the top: All / Instruments / Effects / Addins; last updated, newest, most downloaded, name.
    • Screenshots from the catalog on every card.
    • Restart prompt: the second APPLY lists the changes and asks before restarting MPC; CANCEL keeps them ready.
    • DISCOVER hides plugins you already have.
    • Fixes: lists the whole catalog (1.1.0 stopped at 64 plugins); installs the newest stable version (1.1.0 could download a newer beta while showing the stable one); accented characters in catalog text; faster screen updates.
    • Tested on an MPC One (MPC OS 3.9.1).
  2. v1.1.0Plugin Manager 1.1.03 files

    Addins, and a tile in the Instruments browser.

    • Addins: catalog entries of kind addin show under the new Addins filter and can be installed, updated and removed from the screen. They install to /data/mpc-addins/<id> and are removed with their own uninstall.sh. Thanks @jacob-sabella (#1).
    • Browser tile: Plugin Manager now has a tile in Sounds > INSTRUMENTS with a Default preset, so tapping it opens the manager. The tile appears after the restart that installs it.
    • Tested on an MPC Key 37 (MPC OS 3.9.1): install, remove, progress, restart, addins, browser tile (report).
  3. v1.0.1Plugin Manager 1.0.11 file

    Fixes "Can't install on this MPC: No install location" on devices where MPC's content locations list no usable Synths folder (reported on an MPC One Plus).

    • If no listed location is usable, plugins now install into the Plugin Manager's own Synths folder, then the folder of another installed plugin, then the internal drive's default.
    • A content location with a trailing / is accepted.
    • /tmp/pluginmgr/device.txt now says why each location was rejected and where the install target came from. Please attach it to bug reports.
  4. v1.0.0Plugin Manager 1.0.01 file

    First release. Install, update and remove catalog plugins from the MPC screen. Tested on an MPC One (MPC OS 3.9.1).
