Preset Mutator Free

Preset Mutator Free Changelog

A concise public record of improvements and fixes. The tool remains free, local-first, and focused on playable Vital starting points.

  1. Current release

    v0.4.11

    Unified the refinement workflow across Scratch, Preset, and Audio.

    • Aligned the source and Mutation Amount cards with a full-width refinement and generation section.
    • Standardized the five-control refinement grid, responsive breakpoints, labels, status area, and CTA placement.
    • Removed the duplicate version beneath the app title while keeping release details in the footer and changelog.
  2. v0.4.10

    Added Serum 2 beta export and clarified the Free generation workflow.

    • Added local Serum 2 generation and mutation support across Scratch, Preset, and Audio.
    • Introduced clearer synth targeting and a balanced Scratch refinement layout.
  3. v0.4.9

    Made direct access to Preset Mutator Pro clear for existing customers.

    • Added a named Pro app link to Scratch, Mutate Preset, and Audio to Preset.
    • Added the direct Pro destination to the Tools page, product details, and site search.
  4. v0.4.8

    Renamed the free edition to Preset Mutator Free.

    • Updated all three workflows, installed-app metadata, product discovery, and release notes.
    • Kept the existing app URL and generation workflow unchanged.
  5. v0.4.7

    Made the wider browser-tool line easier to reach from every Free workflow.

    • Added a direct All tools path to Scratch, Mutate Preset, and Audio to Preset.
    • Kept the focused local workflow intact while making related tools and release information easier to discover.
  6. v0.4.6

    Expanded the generation engine so each run begins from more distinct, usable Vital structures.

    • Added controlled oscillator, layered, noise-bed, focused, and delay/reverb-led starting architectures.
    • Expanded safe preset mutation into active OSC 3, noise, distortion, compressor, flanger, and phaser controls.
    • Made Audio respond to source duration as well as tone, transients, movement, and width.
  7. v0.4.3

    Corrected generated-preset exports so the selected direction is heard more faithfully in Vital.

    • Cleared inherited LFO and macro modulation routes from the family seeds.
    • Disabled unused seed oscillators, samples, filters, and side effects before export.
    • Added export QA to prevent generated patches from inheriting those routes again.
  8. v0.4.2

    Added a clearer public release record for the free tool.

    • Added a dedicated changelog linked from every Preset Mutator Free workflow.
    • Made the changelog available offline alongside the rest of the app shell.
    • Added QA coverage to prevent the version history link from disappearing.
  9. v0.4.1

    A clearer, more focused generation workflow across Scratch, Preset, and Audio.

    • Removed generated preview sounds so results are not mistaken for the exported Vital presets.
    • Improved result-set exploration with fresh sets and clearer generated-result controls.
    • Added practical examples and direction keywords to speed up first-use decisions.
  10. v0.4.0

    Refined the free workflow around three generated Vital variants.

    • Standardized language across all three modes: Scratch, Preset, and Audio.
    • Added focused Pro links without placing licensing or checkout controls in the free tool.
    • Strengthened browser-based QA for exported preset data and the app shell.
  11. v0.3.0

    Introduced a more tactile way to shape generated results.

    • Added the Mutation Amount macro control for setting how far variants move from the source or intent.
    • Kept detailed controls available as optional fine tuning instead of competing with the main workflow.
    • Improved keyboard and pointer interaction for the knob control.
  12. v0.2.0

    Established the three free ways to start a Vital preset.

    • Scratch creates variants from musical intent.
    • Preset mutates an existing local .vital file.
    • Audio maps a short local sound source into preset directions.
