release notes.
Every shipped change to Arna, in order. Newest first. Versioning follows SemVer.
1.0.0 — Arna 1snob
Released
First public build of Arna 1snob — the free, one-knob edition. VST3 and AU on macOS 12+, Apple Silicon and Intel.
- Added: One-knob Journey across five anchor phases — Tight, Room, Bloom, Sentient, Crown.
- Added: One mix fader for dry / wet balance — completes the entire 1snob UI.
- Added: Brain-driven spectral analysis modulating bloom intensity at audio rate.
- Added: Eight reverb presets tuned in DSP (Cathedral, Hall, Chamber, Plate, Spring, Drum Room, Vocal Booth, Cinematic) — exposed in the upcoming Full edition's preset browser.
- Changed: Removed the cycle button and Freeze toggle from the 1snob UI — the edition is now a single knob and a single fader. Freeze remains a Full edition feature.
- Internal: DiffGFDN engine validated through pluginval Level 10, ctest, and the internal torture battery on macOS.
- Internal: Zero allocations on the audio thread; zero added latency (lookahead off).
0.9.0 — All editions
Released
Pre-release calibration build used internally and with closed beta testers.
- Added: Final colour anchors for the journey (Tight cream, Room gold, Bloom warm, Sentient orange, Crown deep ember).
- Changed: Block-size validation extended from 32–1024 to 32–2048 samples.
- Fixed: Denormal noise floor engages at decay > 12 s without bleeding into the bus.
