So just let me give sme feedback 🙏🏻

I am not sure if something may be wrong with my screen?
This is how I see sampler font color:

It is not very visible for me, as you can see, the font is hard to see compared to other fonts of the plugins (for example the left bar). You can see that the color is so dark that it matches the disabled ' work area length on select' options color.
Maybe something is rendering bad on my system?
I made a fast edit in Photopea just to see:

Here you can see that the font color matches (more or less) the other fonts of the plugin.
Just little things Jan!
Don't think I'm trying to rush you into solving it, I'm just commenting :tu:

no, functionality first. if, this will be among the finishing touches.
Not what I was hoping for, but thanks for the honest answer!

Great release. will there be bezier curves added for different parameters for the different modules? So we could adjust how much the saturation module is driven over time for example?

thanks!
if you click on the text label next to a parameter it's automation mode becomes active. and by clicking on the lamp/circle, you can enter/exit edit mode - this works for all params

I downloaded the new 2.7.0 update today. But can't use it. As soon as i start playing a kick the audio starts crackling. Doesn't matter which of my DAWs i try. Anybody else noticed such issues?
It only crackles when playing Kick Drum 2.7.0. All other installed VSTs, even the CPU hogs, are working fine without crackles.

I noticed, as soon as the plugin window is open, i get heavy crackles when playing a kick. When the plugin window is closed the crackles disappear.

Thank you for your email! so far, you've been the only one reporting that, but we'll get it sorted out.

I like new update, but I have few questions / critique about it.
1. the curve for pitch or everything is changed to be smooth, is there way to bring it back as option? Or it is only visual thing and it not affect audio? Or maybe I overlook some settings?
2. In wavetable I can add Noise and use it as oscilator, but I noticed thet when I click somwhere on the GUI, it slightly change on the characteristic, like changeing phase maybe? It is annoying because it can change a sound little bit. Maybe change phase on each kick play is intended, but it not working properly (bug)?

i guess you mean the smoothing for node connections? in that case, you can select the nodes, where you want to remove/adjust the smoothing, then right click and drag the feather in the menu up/down...is that it?

right under the fully random noise (the one that is constantly changing, that you talk about) there is a noise, where you can set the seed on the right when hovering above it - that one is not changing after you added it.

Thanks, that solve my problems. Although the changing smoothing for node, I have to drag far away to see effect, when I tried it firstly I thought it is not working. Is there option to set smoothing nodes by default? For example I set smoothing for nodes some value and it will be used for new created node.

I just noticed that it allows drag&drop in FL since version 2.5.1, I missed it !! Thank you very much Jan! :)

yeah, an indicator would help - i'll add that. about the default smoothing option, have to think about it, thanks for the idea.

no clue. works fine here on all browsers i can test. what browser are you using?

Using Chrome on PC and on mobile (Android). But, question, is there an expectation to be logged in in order to download the demo? Because there's a "sign in" and "return" set of buttons on the error page.

If there's a login requirement to download the demo, that might be why, as I haven't created an account (and to note: I won't do so to download a demo - just as a matter of principle).

Sounds like something's up with your browser because I can download the Windows and Mac demo without being signed in (Opera, Win11)!
Always Read the Manual!

I tried with Edge as well, same error.
