Downloads

  • SubForge-linux-x86_64.tar.gz for Linux (x86-64)
  • SubForge-windows-x64.zip for Windows (64-bit)

Added

  • Pattern slots A-H. The sequencer holds eight patterns, saved with the project, and plays one at a time. Choose the slot with the A-H buttons next to the steps, by automating the new Sequencer Pattern parameter, or by playing MIDI notes C-2 to G-2 while the sequencer runs (those notes no longer transpose; Settings > MIDI C-2 to G-2 choose pattern turns this off). A new slot starts when the playing pattern starts over, so a switch always lands on the loop. The steps show and edit the slot that plays. Copy pattern to slot in the pattern menu copies it to another slot. Projects from 1.0.x open with their pattern in slot A and copies of it in B-H, and play as before.
  • Export patterns as MIDI clips. Right-click a slot for Export MIDI, or use Export MIDI, Export all slots as MIDI and Open MIDI folder in the pattern menu. A clip is one pass of the pattern and plays as the sequencer does: accents, slides (as overlapping notes), gate and swing. On Windows a slot can also be dragged straight into the DAW.
  • Tooltips on all controls. Each one explains in a few words what the control does. Settings > Show tooltips turns them off; the choice is saved for all projects.
  • Settings and About show the exact build version (for example 1.0.1-3-g945938c for a build between releases).

Changed

  • The settings button is now drawn as a gear. The old icon looked like a sun and could be mistaken for a theme switch.

The sound is unchanged: the audio demo renders identically to 1.0.1.

Known issues

  • Fuzz: the Tone control changes the output level, and at high Tone settings short peaks can exceed 0 dBFS. Lower Volume if needed. This may be improved in a later version.
