Pre-release: the builds of MOD Desktop for the MOD OS 1.14 line, collected here as they come. Each new build replaces the previous one for its OS.

Numbering: 0.<MOD OS line>.<build>. 14 is the MOD OS 1.14 line whose web interface MOD Desktop shares; the last number counts builds and goes up with every fix.

Your version shows in the launcher’s settings dialog.

Builds (newest first)

0.14.2 (2026-11-14, Linux, Windows, macOS): the first 0.14 build for all three systems.

  • Update check: MOD Desktop now tells you when a newer build is out on this page, with a link to it. “Skip this version” hides the notice for that build. Turn it off with “Check for updates” in the launcher’s settings.
  • Your own LV2 plugins: put them in Documents/MOD Desktop/lv2 (create the folder) and press Stop/Start in the launcher. On macOS, plugins you build yourself now load (before, they showed in the list and failed with “Error adding effect”). Guide: https://github.com/mod-audio/mod-desktop/blob/main/docs/plugins.md
  • Web interface from MOD OS 1.14 stable: Tone3000 format filter and download fixes, trigger parameters shown in their group.
  • macOS: the xrun fix from 0.14.1 (real-time priority for the JACK clients).
  • DAW plugin: no leftover JACK server after the plugin is removed; on macOS the AU no longer crashes REAPER when its window opens; on Linux the “Open in Web Browser” and folder buttons work inside Ardour.
  • DAW plugin formats: macOS AU, VST3, CLAP, LV2 (VST2 no longer included on macOS); Windows and Linux unchanged.
  • Known issue (macOS): the AU plugin window can open at the wrong size, or not follow resizing, when you use an external display next to a Retina screen. Use VST3 or CLAP, or “Open in Web Browser”, until it is fixed.

0.14.1 (2026-11-03, macOS):

  • fixes the xruns at 128 frames on macOS (the JACK clients now get real-time priority) and the files that only root could read in the 0.0.14.36 test build.

The macOS installer is signed but not yet notarized: if macOS says it cannot check it, open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click “Open Anyway”. The Windows installer is not signed: if Windows SmartScreen stops it, click “More info” → “Run anyway”.
