Each version's notes, kept as they were written. Start with the latest, or go back to the release you are running.
0.99 is available for Windows and macOS, including the macOS standalone. Standalone builds are complete on all three platforms: the Windows app awaits the signed Steinberg ASIO agreement, and Linux remains in private testing before its public 0.99 release. Check the packages and platform status.
ARTIFICER joins NAM playback in 0.99, with 18 house recipes and the tools to build an amp of your own.

0.99: an amp you can build, a signal path you can rearrange, and a proper parametric EQ
ARTIFICER is an amp engine of my own: eighteen house amps, a Designer that opens the chassis, and NEW AMP for building one of your own.
FLEX lets you arrange effects and parallel paths yourself, and a new eight-band parametric EQ shapes either amp or the whole rig. The input cleanup, stereo controls, held pads, effect tails and MIDI all got practical improvements too. 0.99 is out now for Windows and macOS.
0.99.1 hotfix (RigSculpt): fixes the window size limit on laptops and a knob preview in ARTIFICER's FINISH & MATERIALS page. Details and how to update.
0.98: rig snapshots, a looper, and gapless preset changes
Four rig snapshots inside a preset, an end-of-rig looper with footswitch controls, and background loading with crossfades and effect trails. AFTERGLOW reaches every delay mode, and graphics-card processing comes to Apple Silicon.
0.97: AFTERGLOW pads, library discovery, and GPU processing
AFTERGLOW gains four pad voices, SWELL and STACK, with footswitch gestures for capturing and releasing. The NAM library adds solo/hide controls, a pinned reference and improved directional browsing. Windows graphics-card processing and Workshop analysis also expand.
0.96: stereo multi-core, phase lanes, and clearer quality controls
Stereo Multi-Core and Phase Lanes spread supported NAM processing across CPU cores. Clearer quality controls, expanded offline oversampling, improved cabinet, pedal and reverb browsing, and more preset-management tools round out the update.
0.95: pedal NAM models, a MIDI preset bank, and the Workshop name
A pedal NAM mode, a 32-slot MIDI preset bank, revised NAM output EQ, cabinet cuts and more directional searches. The desktop analyzer becomes RigSculpt Workshop, with dedicated analysis for pedals and full rigs alongside amps, cabinets and reverbs.
Notes on Synergize refinements for contrasting amps, measured level matching when loading a stereo pair, library keyboard navigation, and a correction to recalling the second amp in a saved rig.
The first macOS packages bring RigSculpt to Intel and Apple Silicon in VST3 and AU, and the analyzer to Apple Silicon. NAM Library Explorer adds quicker auditioning, while stereo level/phase matching and library organization receive attention on both platforms.
0.92: the IN page, true stereo input, pickup revoicing, and MIDI
The IN page brings HUSH, NOISE FILTER and deeper gate controls together. True stereo input, custom pickup revoicing, the experimental DESCENT down-tuner, expanded MIDI control and a guided analyzer-to-plug-in handoff complete the workflow.
These pages preserve the notes for each version, so older screenshots and control names may differ from today's interface. For current controls and practical steps, open the RigSuite field guide.
