What's new · 1.1.1
Look: • Five visual styles: Baseline, Flat, Editorial (newspaper), Glitch (CRT terminal), and Colorful (cartoon pastel). • Per-theme pad textures: shimmering confetti on Colorful, newsprint halftone on Editorial, phosphor glow on Glitch. • The beat-indicator ring on every pad strike now shows at every label-detail level, not just High, and picks up the active theme's tint. Latching: • Latch the kick on Odd and the snare on Even - they now when you start each pad. Pressing either pad mid-pattern plays an accent hit without breaking the phase. • "Odd" and "Even" are now bar-absolute. Sound: • Ratchet sub-hits no longer stack voices in the downstream synth. • Gate length inside a ratchet burst tracks the sub-hit spacing, so nothing bleeds into the next hit. • In Drift input-quantize mode, off-beat ratchet presses settle onto the grid as a group Misc: • Pad labels show the correct instrument the instant the plugin loads.
