megaDSP v0.30.0 Beta 1

megaDSP v0.30.0 Beta 1

This is the first megaDSP build intended for broader public testing. It is an
early beta: back up important sessions before using it, and please report the
DAW, operating system, plugin format, and copyable seven-character build hash
with any issue.

Highlights

• 53 processors across dynamics, EQ/filtering, saturation, time, modulation,
  creative, stereo, and utility categories
• Eight prepared snapshots with sample-accurate MIDI Program Change recall,
  click-safe transitions, bounded spill tails, and optional LIVE SAFE mode
• Eight-slot serial card rack with a sticky chain navigator, direct insertion,
  drag reordering, searchable module browser, themes, and instance labels
• VST3 and CLAP for macOS, Windows, and Linux; Audio Unit for macOS
• Neural Amp Modeler support for user-provided .nam models
• Local rotating diagnostics and crash markers containing the exact build
  version and commit

Validation

• GitHub Actions build and test matrix passed on macOS 15, Windows Server 2022,
  and Ubuntu 24.04
• macOS VST3 passed pluginval strictness 10 with GUI tests skipped
• macOS VST3 passed pluginval strictness 5 with editor tests enabled
• macOS VST3, AU, and CLAP bundles are universal arm64/x86_64 and pass strict
  bundle signature verification

Before testing

• macOS bundles are ad-hoc signed but not notarized. You may need to approve
  them in macOS Privacy & Security or remove quarantine as described in the
  README.
• Windows binaries are not code-signed.
• NAM model files and convolution impulse responses are not bundled.
• Creative spectral effects intentionally keep dry audio immediate; their wet
  signal begins after the analysis window.

See the README for installation
paths and the effects reference
for detailed controls.
