Electra 2.6
The update to v2.6 is a major update, which is available for free. It includes a better user interface, new synthesis modes, enhanced sound and a large number of new features.
Electra 2.6 is downward compatible with all previous versions. All existing song projects and patches can be loaded without any further steps necessary. They will benefit from the enhanced sound quality.

New features:
New synthesis mode: Analog oscillators (Saw, Square, Triangle, Sine, Half Sine, Comb, Pulse 25%)
New synthesis mode: Soft sync (is active if the target oscillator is analog; works well with triangle)
New synthesis mode: Analog pulsewidth modulation (select Analog->'Pulse PW'; PW knob controls the pulsewidth)
New effect: 'Gated Reverb' which syncs to the BPM rate
New effect: 'Gated Reverb Echo' is Gated Reverb with a delay which syncs to BPM
New effect: 'Reverse Reverb' which syncs to the BPM rate
New effect: 'Stereo Width' allows to spread the panorama from mono to surround
New effect: 'Laser Punch' adds additional punch. Use it with a sawtooth to gereate a zzapping 'Rubber Bass' sound
New effect: 'Stereo flanger'
New effect: 'Surround pan' with dolby prologic compatible surround encoding
New filter: 'LP Butter' is an analog modeled butterworth filter with 24dB. The analog knob controls the noisyness
New filter: 'LP Tone2' is an analog modeled leapfrog filter with 24dB. The analog knob controls non-linearity
New filter: 'LP Elliptic' is a digital filter with 40dB slope
The patch browser shows a scrollbar if more than 26 categories exist
Doubleclick on a knob resets it to the default value
Custom Wave->'Load wave' now shows a popup menu with all available waveforms in ElectraX_wavetables
Custom waveforms can quickly be selected with the mouswheel
Custom Wave->'Random wave' generates a random waveform
'Save Wave' exports a wav file with the oscillator's waveform
New Sample effect: 'Phase shifter' creates a very similar sounding sample. It can be used for 'sample clearing', since it makes it difficult to proove the origin of the sample.
New halftone mode for the arpeggiator: 3/4 selects a minor or major third which depends on the root key
'Natural scrolling' support for the mousewheel on Mac
List selectors now have checkmarks
40 additional patches

Enhancements:
Enhanced sound of 'Reverb Hall', especially for for small sizes
Enhanced sound of 'Reverb Room' for small sizes
Enhanced sound of 'Reverb Cathedral'
Slightly enhanced sound of 'Reverb Big' with reduced low frequency rumble
Slightly enhanced sound of 'Reverb Infinity' with reduced low frequency rumble
A hand symbol is shown for text-style parameters which can be altered with the mouse
More detailed description for some tooltips
If tooltips are hidden the info boxes for the knobs are also hidden
Better default settings for Chorus
Better default settings for Ensemble
Mousewheel on PC has a more aggressive focus
No more clipping in the waveform displays
More clean sound of PWM modulation on 'custom wave'
Filter frequency response display is more precise
Higher precision of triangle, square and saw LFO at high frequencies
More linear frequency response of 'Dynamic loud', 'Bright' and 'Loudness'
Init->'Reset All' sets Pitchwheel to +-12
Cleaned up some tooltips
Several small enhancements
More smooth looking waveform displays
Reworked some 'init patch' templates

Fixes:
The timing in 44kHz and 48 kHz samplerate was incorrect
One some PC hosts the mouse cursor showed a wait circle when a knob was moved
LFO 'Fade' did not work with some waveforms
The checkmark 'Multilayer edit' was not shown after closing and opening the GUI
Fixed a denormal in the Reverb effect
Fixed a click that could be audible when volume envelope sustain was set to 0
Monophonic arpeggiators sometimes did not play if keys were hit while loading a patch
'Hold' time in the envelope section was displayed incorrectly
LFO speed text did display a mouse up/down arrow on mouseover
STEP Lfo speed display was incorrect
Modulation depth of knobs could have been incorrect if matrix target was switched

Changes:
Text-style parameters do not longer display a "*"
