Version 1.4.3 - August 23, 2024

  • Window resizing: Plugin now allows smaller window sizes than before, for compatibility with lower resolution displays. Clicking on the Kazrog "K" logo resets the plugin window to its default size.
  • Ableton Live: Resolves bounce issues (slow render times, crashes) when using VST3 plugins. For now, this means that offline render will use the same settings as online render when using this plugin format in this host. We're in communication with Ableton regarding a more permanent solution.

Version 1.4.2 - June 19, 2024

  • Ableton Live - Attempted to resolve issue where plugins would mute after exporting audio.
  • Reduced visual prominence of CPU overload warnings.
  • Frameworks and SDKs updated.

Version 1.4.1 - May 1, 2024

  • Resolved intermittent crash on bounce in Cubase 11/12 on Mac
  • Refactored DSP for greater stability and efficiency, consistency with newer Kazrog plugins, with no change in sound from previous versions.
  • Added CPU meter to settings panel
  • Added CPU overload warning to all plugins when buffer underruns are detected
  • When bypassed, plugins will now darken their main user interface to make the bypassed state much more obvious
  • Resolved "bypass after bounce" bug in Ableton Live 11/12

Version 1.4.0 - January 30, 2024

  • New top bar (first introduced in Avalon VT-747SP plugin) with preset subfolder support (up to 3 levels.)
  • Resizable window - Simply drag the resize handle in the lower right corner of the window. The last used window size is automatically saved globally for each plugin.
  • Logic Pro X - Separate offline oversampling settings are now fully supported in Logic Pro X
  • Updated SDKs and frameworks to latest industry standard versions.
  • Mac installers no longer require Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon Macs. (For clarity, our plugins have supported Apple Silicon natively since 2021, but the installers were running in Rosetta 2 mode on those machines until now.)
  • Windows installers updated to more stringent EV code signing certificate standard.
  • New fonts for greater readability.
  • Old macOS versions deprecated - all Kazrog plugins now require macOS 10.13.x or higher
  • Various minor bug fixes and improved host compatibility.

Version 1.3.4 - January 20, 2023

  • Resolved low frequency issue that still affected sample rates above 88.2kHz in version 1.3.3.

  • Toggling realtime linear phase oversampling now properly refreshes state on-the-fly.

Version 1.3.3 - January 13, 2023

  • Resolved low frequency echo issue that occurred in some DNA models when feeding momentary low frequency transients (e.g. 808 kicks) into the plugin.
  • Newly expanded oversampling settings, up to 32x
  • Apple Silicon Native AAX support (Pro Tools)
  • Changes to oversampling settings are refreshed on the fly (rather than on session reload.)
  • Separate offline oversampling settings is disabled in Pro Tools and Logic (these hosts will receive this feature when/if they respond to changes in reported plugin latency mid-session for PDC.)
  • PluginDoctor support (avoid realtime oversampling settings above 2x for the most stable results.)
  • Updated all frameworks and SDKs to latest stable versions.
