Highlights
- Global tuning. A concert A control sits in the bottom bar. Leave it at 440, dial in 442 or 443 to sit with an orchestra, or drop to 432. Pick a value from the list or type your own, and the whole instrument retunes at once. It saves with the patch, and held notes move with it as you turn.
- A new look. The panels are frosted glass now, lit sheets that float over a backdrop that slowly moves, and each theme carries its own motif behind them, drawn live rather than baked into an image.
- The display screens read clearer. The oscillator and scope panels sit on their own solid backing now, so the moving backdrop never shows through the waveform you are trying to read.
- A/B compare holds the whole patch. Flipping between A and B snapshots everything now, including an imported wavetable or a reordered FX rack, not just the knobs.
- Your patches, packs, and license carry over exactly as before.
Details
The headline is global tuning, and it is the thing I have been asked for most. There is a concert A control in the bottom bar now. Leave it at 440 and nothing changes, set it to 442 or 443 to sit with an orchestra, or drop it to 432 if that is your world. Pick a value from the list or type your own straight in. It retunes the whole instrument at once, both oscillators, the sub, and the resonator, because every pitch in Laura is worked out from that one number. It saves with the patch, so a session that lives at 442 stays there, and if you turn it while a chord is held the held notes move with it, so you can tune by ear against a track.
The rest of the release is a look. The panels are frosted glass now, translucent sheets lit with their accent colour and floating over a backdrop that drifts instead of sitting still. Each theme grows its own motif back there, drawn as it moves rather than looping a clip, and the palettes are untouched, so your custom colours land exactly as you set them. The one practical change under the shine: the oscillator and scope screens sit on their own solid backing now, so the moving backdrop never bleeds through the waveform you are reading. A/B compare got more honest too, it snapshots the whole patch, so flipping between two versions carries an imported wavetable or a reordered rack, not just the knobs. Nothing about your saved patches, packs, or license changes.
