Blue Cat Audio Connector Freeceiver Fader Hub Updated with Offline Bounce and Freeze
Blue Cat Audio has released major updates to Connector, Freeceiver, and Fader Hub, adding offline bounce, freeze, and rendering capabilities. The new features let users render audio and MIDI through plugins or external hardware across applications, including remote network setups.
What’s new in Connector and Freeceiver
The updated versions now support offline bounce, freeze, and rendering directly within the plugins. This allows producers to process audio and MIDI offline, reducing CPU load and speeding up complex routing setups. Both tools can now handle network and internet-based connections, making remote collaboration and cloud workflows more practical.
Fader Hub improvements
Fader Hub gains smoother automation handling and better MIDI routing, improving stability when managing multiple control surfaces. The update also includes enhanced OSC support, enabling tighter integration with hardware controllers and custom scripts.
Pricing and upgrade path
All three tools remain cross-platform (Windows, macOS, VST3, AU, AAX) and continue to offer perpetual licenses with free lifetime updates. Existing users can upgrade immediately via the Blue Cat Audio account portal. New users can purchase each tool individually or bundle them for a discount.
Who should update?
These updates are ideal for sound designers, remote producers, and live performers who rely on multi-app routing, hardware integration, or CPU-heavy projects. Offline bounce and freeze are especially useful for film scoring, podcast editing, and large template projects where real-time processing is limiting.
