Congratulations!

This is super cool. Glad to see it finally "released". I've been using it since it was first available as a beta with zero problems, but it's a really cool concept as well as a super fun effect, and having a project "finished" is always a good feeling. Congratulations!

Congrats on the official release, Andy.
What's next, a SansAmp Bass Driver DI model?

Also i found a new minor bug, if i resize the GUI by dragging then i spam the schematic view switch, the GUI slowy gets smaller and smaller (resizing in the settings is fine tho, size doesnt change when i do the same thing)

Can you please email support@cytomic.com with your system setup and versions of everything? Also if you are on windows I'll need to know your display scaling settings.

Actually don't worry I can get it happening here, a very slight reduction by a pixel or two in size which only happens if you set the gui scaling by dragging not to 50% 100% 150% or 200% size. Probably a rounding error in the gui size calculation cause by floating point to integer (pixel) sizes.

Hey Andy this still hasn't been fixed, and in Glue the knobs are still snapping in increments of 2 (without Shift).

Is this still in beta as 1.2.2 or final 1.0 release?

It's out of beta now, with full functionality, manual, presets, and online audio examples.

Amazing. Scream is definitely the last word in TS-808 emulation. I'm hoping Cytomic is able to keep expertise focused to modelling the distortion stomps. I believe they are a higher demand than exploring alternative FX types.

If anyone is interested in hearing how close The Scream is to analog Tube Screamer pedals you can check out this video:


I'll do another one soon with more practical content on how to use the mod section, the rand section, and the schematic editor.
