A significant update to all Kilohearts software is now available and is free for existing owners.

This update brings new features, some UI improvements and a handful of bug-fixes:

General:

• Snap Heap and Multipass can now themselves be added as snapins, making it possible to do very complex nested FX structures.
• Totally reworked preset browsing:
• Preset favorites.
• Multiple user preset folders.
• Preset search.
• Proper preset browsing in snapins.
• Better Save dialog.
• Made it possible to select a default preset.
• New and improved top bar in all plugins.
• Improved preset loading speed.
• Curated and sorted factory presets for Snap Heap and Multipass.
• Fix for keyboard input not being forwarded to the DAW when a sub window had focus.
• Fixed automation not being smooth when large buffer sizes are used.
• Fixed a problem that made it impossible to enter a parameter value via keyboard in the popup while the parameter was modulated.

Phase Plant:

• Over 80 new factory presets. Search for "#new" in the preset browser to find them all.
• Sample and Wavetable browsing now uses the new content browser.
• LFO shapes can now be saved/loaded, also using the new content browser.
• Filter and Distortion generator FX now have better visualization.
• Filter generator FX now has slope control.
• Distortion generator FX has a new distortion mode: Quantize.
• Added visualization to filter and distortion generator FX modules.
• Improved grid control in LFO editor.
• Improved LFO editor tools. The new "Stepped draw tool" makes it easier to use the LFO as a step sequencer.
• Changed legato behavior. Adjacent notes are now considered to be separate rather than being played legato.
• Adjusted the layout of the add modulator popup to be consistent with the same popup for generators and snapins.
• Fixed a crash when adding audio rate modulations to a Sampler while playing a note.
• Fixed samples sometimes not playing after loading a preset.
• Fix for root and loop settings not updating as they should when loading samples.
• Fix for old sample playing at the wrong pitch for a split second when browsing samples.
