- Fixed interface size issues in Cubase 10 when using 150% High DPI scaling on Windows.
New in FabFilter Saturn 1.19 (Feb 21, 2019)
- Made the High Quality parameter non-automatable, to prevent automation from changing the latency during playback.
- Updated plug-in for full compatibility with Mac hosts built specifically for macOS 10.14 (Mojave), such as Logic Pro 10.4.4, running under macOS 10.14.0 or 10.14.1. Previously this could lead to an all-black plugin interface.
- Improved the way settings are saved when multiple plug-in instances are open to make sure the last setting that was chosen is saved correctly for new instances.
- Added support for 300% scaling on 8K displays (High DPI) on Windows.
- Fixed an issue that could cause incorrect scaling of the plug-in interface in Cubase 10 or Live 10 on High DPI displays in combination with certain graphics drivers on Windows.

New in FabFilter Saturn 1.13 (Jul 15, 2013)
- Fixed a bug that could cause typed parameter values to be rounded incorrectly, e.g. when double-clicking a knob to enter a frequency value.

New in FabFilter Saturn 1.12 (Jun 26, 2013)

- Changing parameters via the mouse wheel will now correctly record automation and generate proper undo states. In addition, you can now also control switches with the mouse wheel.
- In the presets menu, changed the Options > View Program/Bank Numbers command to Enable MIDI Program Changes, which now actually enables/disables MIDI program changes as well as showing the program/band number for presets. This ensures that the plug-in only responds to MIDI program changes when this is desired.
- Fixed a bug in the display that could cause the level sliders to be at the wrong position after opening a saved project in Wavelab 7.
- Fixed a bug that could prevent sample-accurate processing of recorded MIDI control change messages.
- Fixed a bug on Windows that could cause a system sound to be played when pressing Enter after typing a parameter value directly.

- Fixed a bug in the VST 2 plug-in that could cause the interface to open with an incorrect size upon loading a saved session in e.g. Ableton Live.
- Fixed compatibility issues with WaveLab 6.
New in FabFilter Saturn 1.01 (Dec 17, 2012)
- Added solo/mute buttons to the interactive band display that let you easily listen to specific bands only. Hold down a solo or mute button to solo or mute temporarily while the mouse is down. Ctrl-click (Windows) a button to solo or mute the band exclusively.
