Changelog

1.1.2 — 06-10-2026

• MONOLITH interface with Blender-rendered knobs; coordinated Obsidian, Porcelain, Rose, Sage and custom panel finishes, plus independently selectable LED colours.
• Resizable layout and improved knob interaction: Command-drag on Mac / Control-drag on Windows for whole-number steps, Up/Down arrow adjustments, and clearing focus by clicking outside a knob.
• Adaptive Drums engine with smoother sustain reduction, protected new attacks and low-mid-focused transient shaping. Addresses the open-hat crackle found in the tested material.
• Existing parameter IDs, plugin identity and licensing remain unchanged. Sessions with Drum Mode active will sound different; keep a copy before updating important projects.
• Built from source commit 9ce452c54e2f1ec88ef56713b71d625e15a6d3c4. Mac DSP tests ran on arm64 and x86_64; Windows DSP tests and installer install/uninstall checks passed in GitHub Actions.

1.0.3 — 24-09-2026

• License activation flow simplified: enter the license key and email from your purchase to activate.

1.0.2 — 17-09-2026

• AAX (Pro Tools) format added on macOS.

1.0.0 — 03-09-2026
