Fletcher v0.7.2

• Hotkeys for your presets. Every preset now has its own settings: click ⚙ next to a preset in the preset menu, or the ⚙ at the end of the preset name on the EQ page. Under Hotkey, click assign and press any combination. Pressing it from any app loads that preset, for example speakers and headphones on the same output. A small popup names the preset and your output. Renaming a preset keeps its hotkey. Thanks for the request!
• The device hotkey popup shows the preset that's actually playing. Before, it could name the device's preset when another one was playing. Pressing the hotkey for the device you're already on no longer reloads its preset over one you picked since.

Fletcher v0.7.1

• Check that your EQ is reaching you. Settings › SETUP › check setup plays a faint tone for a few seconds and measures whether Fletcher's EQ actually changes what your output plays. If it doesn't, it says why.
• Export diagnostics. Settings › SETUP › export… saves a zip with that check, Equalizer APO's config files, your playback devices and their effects, audio software by name, and Fletcher's presets. Attach it to a GitHub issue when something doesn't work. Nothing is sent anywhere. It shows your Windows user name and device names.
• The Clip Studio test tone moved to Settings › SETUP.

Fletcher v0.7.0

• A separate EQ for each ear. Turn on Settings › EARS › Edit each ear separately, and every preset gets its own left and right curves, starting out identical. In the EQ page's ⚙, show one ear at a time, both on one graph, or the two side by side, and turn on "Enable ghost" to see the other ear faintly. Each ear keeps its own undo history. A/B, blind tests and history previews play both ears as they are, and stay level-matched across both together. Join the ears again from ⚙ or from Settings, keeping either side. Thanks to @liopleurod0n for the idea (#11)!
• B is for listening only. While A/B is on B (Flat), editing pauses with a note to switch back to A. Before, adding or pasting a filter on B could replace your preset with Flat plus that one filter.
• Copying from Peace or a config file with separate left and right sections keeps them separate, instead of merging both sides into one chain.
• Renaming a preset keeps its undo history.
• Pasting filters adds a step to the undo history again.

Fletcher v0.6.1

• Hold to compare. In the A/B hotkey's settings (⚙ next to Flip A/B in Settings › Hotkeys), turn on "Hold to compare": hold the hotkey to switch, let go to switch back. Choose "hold for flat" to hear your EQ and hold for flat, or "hold for your EQ" to hear flat and hold for your EQ. Blind tests still switch on each press.

Fletcher v0.6.0

• Settings for each output device. Click ⚙ next to a device in the device menu. Pick a preset there and it loads whenever that device becomes your Windows default, however you switched. Volume rises still fade in, and it never switches during a blind test. The same panel shows whether Equalizer APO is on that device and opens APO's device selector.
• Hotkeys for your devices. Ctrl+Shift+T moves to the next device that has Equalizer APO. Give any device its own hotkey from its settings (the next free Ctrl+Shift+1…0, or any combination you like). A small popup names the device and its preset; it never takes focus from a game. Thanks for the request
• Fletcher follows device switches made anywhere. Switching in Windows' sound settings, the taskbar or another app now updates the device menu at once, and a song playing in Clip Studio moves to the new device right where it was (#8).
• Ctrl+Shift+O opens Fletcher from the tray or from behind other windows.
• Every hotkey has its own settings (⚙): reset, and whether it shows the popup. The A/B popup is off by default and never appears during a blind test.
• Exclusive playback works on more outputs. Some outputs (S/PDIF, HDMI, some Bluetooth headphones) claim to support a format and then refuse it. Fletcher now finds one they actually play. If there is none, Clip Studio plays through the normal path instead of failing, and the test tone says why.
• The "APO is now registered" note can be dismissed.

Fletcher v0.5.0

• Change the A/B hotkey. In Settings › Hotkeys, click the hotkey and press any combination with Ctrl, Alt or Win, switch it off (your combination is kept for later), or reset it. Handy when Ctrl+Shift+A collides with a game. Thanks for the report (#5)!
• The EQ graph starts at 10 Hz, the lowest frequency a filter can use, so everything a filter does is visible.
• Shorter Settings. Every explanation is now one line, or gone.

Fletcher v0.4.0

• A filter editor that shows you what each filter does. Click ⤢ on any filter for a larger editor: its own curve drawn over your whole EQ, sliders and exact values for frequency, gain and Q, and every filter type as a small preview drawn from your current settings. Hover a type to read what it does, click to switch. Pop it out into its own window: it follows whichever filter you select, and Ctrl+Z works there too.
• Filter descriptions are plain facts now, and some were corrected: Fletcher always writes a Q, and Equalizer APO uses it on every filter type.
• Dragging is more precise. The last bit of a quick drag could be lost and the value would jump back slightly; it now lands exactly where you let go.
• Turning a filter on or off no longer adds an undo step, and undo keeps the filter you're working on selected.
• Tooltips no longer get stuck on screen after clicking a menu item.
• The bar above the graph no longer wraps onto two lines in a narrow window.
• The custom scale button keeps its width, so the scale buttons don't shift while you drag.

Fletcher v0.3.0

• A/B comparisons are matched much more accurately. Fletcher now judges loudness the way loudness meters (LUFS) do, so presets with treble boosts are no longer under-counted. When one side can't reach your reference level without clipping, the other side now comes down with it, instead of one side playing quieter. If two settings truly can't be matched, Fletcher says so rather than calling them matched.
• In Clip Studio, A/B is measured on the song itself. Playing through your EQ, each flip measures both sides on the part of the song you're hearing, and the louder one comes down to match. Even extreme EQs now flip at equal loudness. The A/B bar shows "matched (measured on this song)".
• No more sudden volume jumps. Any rise in level, from a reference change, a preset switch or leaving a comparison, fades in over about a second, never more than 3 dB at a time. Large typed increases ask first.
• Blind tests got harder to "cheat". Switching between A and B in clip tests no longer briefly gets louder mid-switch, and clip trials correct each clip on its measured loudness.
• A finer frequency grid with labels at 20, 50, 100, 200, 500… and a graph that uses the whole panel. Thanks for the request (#4)!
• Custom graph scale. The scale options are now auto, ±6, ±12, ±20 and custom. Custom lets you set the top and bottom separately with sliders or by typing; let go of a slider near its end and it re-centres, so you can keep going.
• A real icon. Headphones with orange ear cups over a waveform that fades away into the distance, in the window, taskbar, tray and installer.
• Opening Fletcher twice brings the existing window forward instead of starting a second copy.
• Fletcher fades in briefly at launch.
