# FORGE Release Notes

## v1.2.0 — March 2026

### What's New
- **Improved input gain knob feel** — 0 dB now sits at ~11 o'clock with a skewed response, giving much more usable resolution around unity gain
- **Shared DSP utilities** — DC blockers, limiter, and flux modulation now use shared code across all SATuration plugins for consistent behaviour
- **Per-knob colour tinting** — knobs can now display custom accent colours (used by SHIFT's band-coloured controls)

## v1.1.0 — March 2026

### What's New
- **Flux control** — introduces organic analog drift across drive, bias, and circuit character. Turn it up for the subtle imperfections of real hardware.
- **Smoother filter sweeps** — pre-saturation HP/LP filters no longer click or pop when adjusted during playback
- **Improved stereo imaging** — fixed a subtle phase drift that could occur at 8× oversampling
- **Better circuit consistency** — all four circuits now respond more accurately to Flux modulation
