A method of controlling a plating bath comprising calculating a predictive model of the changes in composition of a plating bath as a function of current-time to determine an amount and timing of a predicted replenisher addition for at least one bath constituent; measuring at least one bath parameter indicative of the changes in composition of the plating bath; and calcu- lating an amount and timing of an acutal replenisher addition by modifying the pre- dicted replenisher addition according to the measured bath parameter; wherein the
predictive model is calculated based on changes caused by anode and cathode reactions and changes caused by drag-out.
