Soundscaper 1.0.0-rc.Oct.5.b

Note: Pre-releases are not signed and notarized, and may result in macOS/Windows showing warning screens when attempting to use them.

Highlights since RC Oct.3.b:

• Arrange workspace panels in side-by-side columns, with compact playback and recording meter panels and improved docking, sizing, focus, and Firefox layout.
• Keep the Tracks panel visible while rearranging the workspace.
• Open Help → About for a tabbed overview of the application version and bundled modules.
• Improve source-properties panel stacking and toolbar interactions.
• Clarify browser and desktop capabilities in the handbook comparison, with accessible comparison symbols and updated site navigation.
• Restore accessible click targets for the meter grips. This candidate replaces the unpublished RC Oct.5, whose accessibility check stopped the package build.

Desktop packages cover Linux x64/ARM64, macOS ARM64, and Windows x64/ARM64. Checksums, runtime manifests, the AGPL license, third-party notices, and bundled-codec corresponding source accompany the packages.

The full professional native source and payload audit remains incomplete, unchanged from RC Oct.3.b. Package contents and release asset checksums have been verified.

Soundscaper 1.0.0-rc.Oct.3.b

Note: Pre-releases are not signed and notarized, and may result in macOS/Windows showing warning screens when attempting to use them.

Highlights since RC Oct.2.d:

• Choose a logarithmic dB waveform scale, ruler format, RMS display, and half-wave display through track preferences and waveform menus.
• Find open projects, workspace presets, and dockable panels together in the Window menu. Audio processing settings and plug-in folder scanning now live in Preferences.
• See AI effect loading progress and required models before processing, with fewer speech-engine loads during model status checks.
• Keep desktop imports as references to their original media files by default. Use File → Project management → Consolidate media to bundle the media and save a portable project copy.
• Restore persistent take-lane audio when reopening projects, and improve recovered recording audio handling.
• Improve startup, waveform rendering, dense timeline scrolling and dragging, resampling, paste operations, autosave, and project storage performance.
• Use the desktop editor in windows as narrow as 400 pixels.

Framescaper 1.0.0-rc.13

Note: Pre-releases are not signed and notarized, and may result in macOS/Windows showing warning screens when attempting to use them.

This Framescaper release candidate passed the complete Quality and multi-platform desktop qualification workflows.

rc.13 is the qualified replacement for rc.10, rc.11, and rc.12; those tagged candidates did not complete release qualification and should not be used for testing.

Highlights since the last published Framescaper candidate:

• Adds unified editable sequence/timecode fields and moves timing and source controls into Project properties.
• Improves multicamera preview accuracy, capture and video-proxy recovery, media relinking, and exact-frame workflows.
• Adds richer waveform and track views, Audacity-style fade handles, macros, and native LADSPA/Vamp audio tooling.
• Hardens streamed media import/export, project ownership, recovery, and multi-platform packaging.
• rc.13 specifically resolves readiness and capture-test timing that prevented the preceding candidates from completing under CI load.

Artifacts cover Linux x64/ARM64, macOS ARM64, and Windows x64/ARM64. SHA256SUMS, runtime manifests, dependency notices, the AGPL license, and bundled-codec corresponding source are included.
