ANA2 Bugs in 2025

Doesn’t recall presets (and automation states) in Bitwig when reopening a project (randomly, but most often it doesn’t recall). Right now it switched to init just after deactivating and re-activating the audio engine. Version 2.5.5

Still no HiDPI aware (Windows).

Such good sounds and I’m sampling the synth because I can’t trust is going to open next time I’m working on the project.

Looking into this Bitwig issue ( on a Mac at the moment ) and trying to replicate here : unless the Audio Engine is going to OFF, I can reopen a Bitwig Project with ANA 2 and it will recall the preset and automation lines.

Now if the Audio Engine goes OFF, after re-activating it, ANA 2 reverts to the INIT preset.

That’s also happening inside a brand new project even before saving and trying to reopen & recall :

1 - New Bitwig Project → Launch an instance of ANA 2
2 - Select a preset
3 - Turn the Audio Engine OFF in Bitwig and ANA 2 is disable ( normal behavior )
4 - Turn the Audio Engine ON again in Bitwig and ANA 2 reverts to the INIT Preset.

Also not sure why there’s a “Program” automation mapping appearing for ANA 2 by default since the plugin is not supposed to handle Program Change ( at least not Midi CC Program Changes ), this can be something else reporting the preset, but it’s actually changing ANA 2 presets when you move that knob, and that’s also the parameter that’s reverting to INIT after turning the Audio Engine OFF/ON, so could be related.

Will test further and push this to the developers.

Not sure this will happen with ANA 2, need to ask the developers though.
