A long arc since v1.17.6 — six version numbers of new DSP and a UI refresh. The headline is AURORA: a thin correction layer that sits on top of a Mega-class base filter and reduces the small overshoot every linear-phase FIR produces on a hard edge.

The headline is AURORA: a thin correction layer that sits on top of a Mega-class base filter and reduces the small overshoot every linear-phase FIR produces on a hard edge. AURORA never touches your original samples — only the in-between values the upsampler invents on the way to your DAC.

What's new

AURORA (PREVIEW) — three presets, atom active at α=1.0:

  • AURORA · Kinetic ★ HEADLINE — over Mega Kinetic V3 (linear-phase dual-path). Step overshoot 13.98% → 6.05%.
  • AURORA · Organik — over MegaOrganik 1M. 27.06% → 21.19%.
  • AURORA · Adaptive — over V4 Halfband dual-path with a path-aware atom on the transient kernel.

Audible-band residue ≤ −127 dBFS across all three. Off mode is the base filter, untouched.

Multi-band coincidence gate (v1.24) — AURORA fires only when ≥2 of 3 critical bands (sub-bass, midrange snap, treble shimmer) co-fire within ±2 ms. Sustained cymbal washes and sub-bass drones no longer trip the atom.

Mega Kinetic V3 and V4 Halfband — new dual-path base filters. V3 is the cleanest interpolator in the lineup; V4 carries a long Mega-tier kernel on sustained passages and switches to a short halfband on transients.

Diretta network audio — Rockna's ASIO Diretta driver works on both app and server paths.

Adaptive transient cooldown (Path C) — the detector now adapts to recent event density. No more 5–20 Hz tremolo on dense kit fills. Sparse music stays bit-exact to v1.22.x.
