Yup, context and these f..in layers. Really hard to tell sometimes. And I was so excited about my idea, that I also did not think about the layers.
I think I wrote to you mostly on the matter-layer and even intended a bit of a joke, but not about you, just about the fact how it would sound, (maybe I have time to record it later) though you probably heard me on the relationship-layer.
Good thing we have Emojis I guess.

And now I will test the Thorn

 

Indeed.....Indeed my friend...

Listen im really sorry bud....

I truly thought you were throwing me a really really clever ass insult...
Again...so sorry.....

Yes and emoijis can defo extinguish misunderstandings.."This being a prime example..sorry once again...

That was entirley my fault for reading way way too much into lack of context...

 

Haaha, a really really clever ass insult wasn't my intention. At least not this time
All good man
Maybe the next round's on you?

 

2017.10.24 ■ v1.0.1

Changes.

• Added “Intermediate” GUI size. As well there is an additional submenu now with precise scaling steps. Click on the logo displays GUI size menu now.
• Fixed VST3 automation and mono configuration issues.
• Fixed possible crash when playing low keys.
• Fixed 32bit versions don’t show up on Mac.
• Fixed font encoding issues of Windows for some menus.
• Increased font size, adjusted GUI layout.
• Status bar does not fade out when tweaking parameters now.
• Knobs: CMD(Mac) or CTRL(Win) + mouse drag/wheel/trackpad to adjust modulation depth.
• All controls use ALT+drag for fine tuning.
• Better faders control for envelopes.
• Expanded clickable area for preset arrows.
• Manual corrections.
• Known issue: There are might be GUI font and layout rendering issues on Windows for “Small” GUI size. OSX and higher GUI scales unaffected.

 

Wait.. What? Avenger has the worst GUI in teh world evah. It's a squinterface, the terrible "increase GUI size, keep fonts same size" kinda deal makes it a struggle to use. The fact that none of the important "stuff" is given any prominence, all of the buttons are generic sizes and it's hell to use. Let alone the constant nesting of menus! Ugh. Thorn, by contrast, takes seconds to "realize", the only silly thing they did was put the master out thing in the limiter area. Everything else is logical and clear. Completely the opposite w/ Avenger.

Yeah, don't underestimate how cool it is to have things properly designed. If only it didn't keep crashing! So buggy...

Fixed a crash... Fixed stability issues... Significantly reduced installer's size...

What's not to love about this update?! These are my favourite changelog entries, always.

 

Stability improvements are most welcome.

 

2017.11.13 ■ v1.0.4

Changes

• Added MSEG/STEPPER OneShot mode.
• Now Thorn remembers recent folder when importing WAV-files.
• Fixed Windows 32 bit stability issues.
• Adjusted polyphony stealing scheme, now Thorn tries to not steal sustained voices if possible.
• Adjusted LFO syncing when Arp is on.
• Added “Disable MIDI Output” option to solve MIDI recording issue in Sonar.
• Fixed multiple minor GUI/processing issues.
• Adjusted user manual.

 

Am afraid to download and update...because what if in next week 1.0.5 may be out, or 1.0.6 weeks later and so on ...but it is worth it really. Best synth this year.

 

Remember : "if it isn't broken, don't fix it"

 

I definitely agree, but in case of Thorn... we all know that it takes a long time for Dmitry to put out a stable version of a synth, so I can bet there will be more fixed versions in the near future. Maybe 1.0.8 will be really fixed and stable? ;) However, it is quite usable as it is now.

 

More fixes, improvements, enhancements, ... - it works better, faster, stable, with less bugs and crashes, better workflow, performance, longer my pc lives and better sound quality.
More new features and stuff inside - more plugin gets advanced , more all-in-one offerings, more ways and methods to achieve this or that or third, more creative experiments will come, less limitations and more flexibility, less needs to insert plugins for that offered stuff to kill pc system gear..

 

I'll update only if versioning use prime numbers (1.0.5, 1.0.7, 1.0.11, 1.0.13 etc)

Changes

• Fixed possible issues with restoring session data on Windows.
• Added BOOST parameter for Distortion to switch between subtle/heavy saturation.
• Added LOCK buttons to Glitch/Arp/Effects/Matrix sections.
