Verified release notes for the Intrect plug-ins. This page lists only versions that passed the
release audit without a known blocking regression. Withdrawn builds and source-only versions are omitted;
the download page always points to the current release.
ENZYME 0.3.1
2026-08-24 · Recommended · macOS Universal · Notarized + stapled
New
- Mono instances. ENZYME loads on mono tracks as a 1-in/1-out plug-in with a mono sidechain. Stereo-only behaviour — mid/side processing and channel link — does not apply on a mono instance, and the spectrum legend no longer labels a mono signal as M/S.
Fixed
- Mono Audio Unit editor. A mono AU instance opened an empty plug-in window in Logic. The mono layout declared a stereo sidechain bus, but a host negotiates the sidechain at the instance width — Logic asks for a mono sidechain on a mono track. The rejected format made Logic drop the instance before it ever asked for the editor, with no error shown. The sidechain now matches the instance width.
0.3.0 introduced the mono layout but shipped with that regression and was withdrawn; 0.3.1 replaces it. Windows remains on 0.2.1 until its build host is back.
14-day free trial. Download from the download page, or read the spec sheet.
ENZYME 0.2.1
2026-08-18 · First public release · macOS Universal · Notarized + stapled
New plug-in
- Dynamic resonance suppression. Estimates a per-bin spectral baseline and attenuates only what protrudes above it, per frame — so a resonance is pulled down while it rings and everything else at that frequency passes through.
- Harmonic / percussive / residual de-mix. An optional second stage separates the signal into three components with independent cut amounts, a 7–31 bin median kernel, three mask modes, and solo monitoring per component.
- Native AUv2, VST3 and CLAP. The Audio Unit is a real component rather than a wrapped CLAP, so Logic and GarageBand load it directly.
- Delta and Bypass monitoring. Delta plays only what is being removed. Both keep the reported 2047-sample latency, so A/B stays phase-aligned.
Fixed since 0.2.0
- Audio Unit knob writes. Moving a control in the editor now retargets the parameter smoother, so edits made from the GUI take effect in AU hosts.
14-day free trial. Download from the download page, or read the spec sheet.
de-artifact 0.3.10
2026-08-15 · Recommended · macOS + Windows
Fixed
- Logic Pro AU silence. Corrected two host-buffer contract errors in the input pull path. Logic Pro playback was verified with the corrected wrapper.
- Windows installation checks. The installer now detects the Microsoft VC++ 2015–2022 x64 runtime and Windows 10 2004+ requirements before installation, instead of allowing a plug-in that cannot load to appear installed.
Existing licenses carry over. Update from the download page.
de-artifact 0.3.9
2026-08-13 · Verified release · macOS Apple Silicon
Fixed / improved
- Native inference self-check. The native path is compared with the CPU reference at load time and falls back automatically when outputs disagree.
- Active engine visibility. The editor and diagnostic report now show which inference backend is active.
- Shipping-build QC. AU validation now exercises the same feature and model configuration used for release builds.
The self-check is a mitigation for one Apple Silicon silence path, not a claim that every possible silence cause is fixed.
de-artifact 0.3.8
2026-08-04 · Verified release
Added
- In-plugin update check. The editor can show when a newer channel release is available without sending device or version telemetry.
- Improved display formatting for dB controls.
Verified legacy releases
Kept for reference; not the current recommendation
- 0.1.8 — fixed AVX2 Windows audio dropouts by wiring the multithreaded executor.
- 0.1.3 — installer path and version sourcing fixes.
Release policy
Versions with confirmed blocking regressions are intentionally not listed here. If you are on an older build, install 0.3.10 and restart or re-add the plug-in in your DAW. If a problem remains, open a support ticket with the host, OS, and diagnostic report.

License model: trial-then-paid
We moved back to a 14-day full trial model and retired the always-on
freemium gap. The trial is bound to a machine fingerprint (no email, no account), so launching
a fresh install on a machine just works for 14 days at full quality with no audible limits.
- 14-day full trial. First launch on a machine calls
/v1/trial
on license.intrect.io; the server issues a signed blob bound to the machine's
fingerprint with a 14-day expiry. Re-installs on the same machine reuse the original
expiry — no clock reset. Reinstalling the OS may reset machine identity and re-issue
the trial; we accept that as a reasonable evaluation path.
- Gate after expiry. Once the 14-day trial elapses, the plug-in continues
to run but inserts a brief silent gap roughly every 60 seconds until you activate it
with a license key. The previous "always-on, 250 ms every 10 s" gap is gone.
- Activate flips the trial blob to paid. A purchase email delivers the
license key; pasting it in the plug-in's license badge calls
/v1/activate,
rewrites the on-disk blob to a paid blob (tier byte = 0x00, no expiry),
and removes the gate immediately — whether you're on day 1 or past day 14.
de-artifact 0.1.2
2026-05-08 · macOS 11+ · Notarized + stapled
Changes
- Apple notarization complete. Installer is signed with our Developer ID
Installer certificate (Heewon Oh, team
635QK74RYK) and the notarization ticket
is stapled into the .pkg. Double-click installs without the “unidentified developer”
Gatekeeper dialog — no more right-click + Open workaround.
- Behaviour, models, presets, and parameters unchanged from 0.1.1.
de-artifact 0.1.1
2026-05-08 · macOS 11+ · Universal binary (Apple Silicon + Intel)
Changes
- Universal Binary. Single .pkg now ships
arm64 + x86_64
slices. Intel Macs no longer need a separate build path; file(1) on the installed
bundle reports both architectures. Installer size grew from ~65 MB to ~132 MB; on-disk install
grew correspondingly to ~150 MB.
- System requirements updated to reflect the new Architecture row.
- Behaviour, models, presets, and parameters unchanged from 0.1.0.
de-artifact 0.1.0
2026-05-08 · macOS 11+ · Apple Silicon
First public build. Real-time VST3 / CLAP plug-in for cleaning RVQ ghosting and codec
residue from AI-generated music.
Highlights
- HPSS analysis + ArtifactUNet mask + adaptive spectral subtraction in a single audio block.
- Two latency modes — Standard (500 ms, ~3× realtime headroom on M1) and
Low-latency (~186 ms, ~1.7× headroom). Toggleable at runtime.
- Seven presets tuned per source type (Suno, Udio, DiffRhythm, transient-heavy, vocal, master,
aggressive).
- Diff mode for residual auditioning. HPSS harmonic / percussive focus modes.
- Licensing at this build: always-on freemium gap (250 ms every 10 s).
Superseded on 2026-05-10 by the 14-day trial model — see the platform note above.

- Windows / Linux builds on the roadmap.
de-leak-rt 0.1.3
2026-05-08 · macOS 11+ · Notarized + stapled
Changes
- Apple notarization complete. Installer is signed with our Developer ID
Installer certificate (Heewon Oh, team
635QK74RYK) and the notarization ticket
is stapled into the .pkg. Double-click installs cleanly with no Gatekeeper dialog.
- Behaviour, models, presets, and parameters unchanged from 0.1.2.
de-leak-rt 0.1.2
2026-05-08 · macOS 11+ · Universal Binary
Changes

License server, downloads, telemetry
Backend infrastructure milestones leading up to the public launch. These changes are invisible to
end users but worth recording for transparency.
- Email-based trial system retired. The original 14-day email-Turnstile trial
(
/v1/trial-request) was removed in favour of a forever-free demo with a 250 ms
silent gap every 10 s — no email friction, no abandoned trials.
Superseded on 2026-05-10: the freemium gap was replaced with a no-email,
machine-fingerprint-bound 14-day full trial via the new /v1/trial endpoint.
See the 2026-05-10 platform note at the top of this page.
- 145-byte signed license blob. Server-side blob layout finalized in lockstep with
the plug-in's
intrect-license Rust crate: ed25519 signature, expiry, machine fingerprint,
license key, reserved bytes. Refresh deadline ~14 days; quietly renewed in the background while the
plug-in is loaded.
- Paddle webhook hardening. HMAC verification with a 5-minute replay window;
handles
transaction.completed, transaction.refunded, and
subscription.canceled.
- Download CDN. Installer files are served from
downloads.intrect.io through a Cloudflare Worker that proxies R2, honours Range
requests, and writes one telemetry row per request to the new intrect-telemetry
D1 database.
- Turnstile-gated downloads. The
.pkg URL only releases the binary if
the request carries a verified Cloudflare Turnstile token, issued by the
/download/<plugin>/ interstitial page. Stops bot scraping and dataset crawlers
from pulling the installer.
- Daily rollup cron. Raw download events are aggregated nightly into the
daily_rollup table; raw rows older than 30 days are pruned.
- Read-only metrics endpoint.
metrics.intrect.io exposes per-path /
country / referral aggregates over a Bearer token, for the operator only.
- Site SEO + Core Web Vitals pass. JSON-LD
FAQPage +
BreadcrumbList + WebSite on the marketing pages, OG/Twitter tags
consolidated, Paddle script deferred, hero images width/height + fetchpriority for LCP, immutable
cache on static assets.
