Updating MuLab
Main Version Updates
It's recommended to keep a separate folder for each main MuLab version.
So best to have a separate install folder for MuLab 8, one of MuLab 9, one for MuLab 10, and so on.
When installing a new main MuLab folder then you can copy-paste all your user settings from a previous MuLab folder to a new MuLab folder by doing this:
- Goto your previous MuLab installation folder and copy the User subfolder to the clipboard.
- Goto your new MuLab installation folder and delete the User subfolder.
- Then paste the User subfolder from the clipboard into the new MuLab installation folder.
This way you have copied all your original user settings into your new MuLab installation folder.
Sub-Version Updates
Within a main MuLab version it's only a matter of updating the binary application file.
Windows
For MuLab App it's about updating MuLab.exe + MuLab.ID (2 files)
For MuLab Plugin it's about updating MuLab Plugin.dll + MuLab Plugin.ID + MuLab Plugin (Synth).dll + MuLab Plugin (Synth).ID (4 files)
This can be done via the main MULAB menu at the top-left of the main window -> Info -> Check For Updates.
That way you can easily download the most recent version as a zip file into your current MuLab.exe folder.
Then quit MuLab, open the zip and update the above mentioned files to the newest version.
