- (fix:Windows) Fix for the 64-bit VST plug-in not opening on certain hosts on Windows XP 64-bit.
- (fix:Windows) Fix for issue where confirmation dialogs in the preset browser could appear underneath and therefore be obscured by the preset browser window.
New in Aspect 1.7.19 (Nov 18, 2014)
- (fix) Fix for issue where tempo synced LFOs would not align when running the plug-in in a host with the transport stopped (introduced in 1.7.18)
New in Aspect 1.7.18 (Nov 7, 2014)
- (fix) Fixed bug introduced into lag generator and random functions in 1.7.17 which could cause older presets to sound different under certain circumstances.

- (new) AAX 64-bit Native plug-ins for Windows and Mac OS X.
- (fix: Mac OS X VST) UI now renders correctly on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
- (fix) Polyphonic aftertouch now works correctly for all presets.
- (feature) Keyboard entry of rotary parameter values. Rotary controls can now be typed directly into by clicking on the text value below the control.
- (improvement) Improved performance on real-time and very low-latency systems.
- (improvement: Windows) The 32-bit and 64-bit VST plug-ins are now installed as separate components. You can choose which one(s) to install, as well as selecting different install folders for each architecture.
- (feature: Linux) Added "Show Directory" to the preset browser, which will will reveal the selected preset directory in your window manager.
- (improvement: Mac OS X) Installer and all installed components are now signed in compliance with Mac OS X's Gatekeeper system.
- (improvement) Significantly improved UI response speed; reduced CPU usage when parameters are automated whilst the UI is open.
- (improvement: Linux) Presets and configuration files are now located to comply with the XDG Base Directory Specification. Older installations will still use any existing preset library location to maintain backwards compatibility.
- (fix: Mac OS X Audio Unit) Fixed minor memory leak in parameter names.
New in Aspect 1.7.10 (Mar 1, 2012)
- Fixed issue which made audio rate modulation of either oscillator's pitch by the noise modulation source slightly quantized. This caused previously created presets using this configuration to sound slightly different in Aspect 1.7.9.
- Fixed bug which occasionally caused newly saved user presets to still be marked with the changed (*) flag in the preset name display.
New in Aspect 1.7.9 (Feb 15, 2012)
- (Windows) Fixed incredibly rare crash which may occur when first opening the plug-in on certain 32-bit VST Windows hosts.
- Massively improved speed and responsiveness of all UI controls.
- Improved CPU usage when tweaking parameters from a hardware controller.
- (Windows) For the Windows VST plug-in, when using a relative path of "." for the presets folder, the path is now relative to the plug-in's DLL file and not the host's executable file. This makes it possible to easily create a portable or USB stick install of Aspect.
- Standalone versions now support multiple simultaneous hardware controllers.
- Fixed an issue where the OK button in the save preset browser would temporarily become disabled when switching from the Factory presets selection.
- Various minor compatibility fixes for certain hosts.
- Various minor user interface tweaks.

New in Aspect 1.7.6 (Sep 29, 2011)
- Preset searches are now multi-threaded. Preset browser can now immediately respond to user interaction, even whilst searching a massive preset library, or when browsing a folder containing a large number of presets.
- Preset meta data (ie, author name, notes, tags) is now correctly displayed after loading an .FXP based preset or restoring a saved project.
- Vastly improved CPU usage when recalculating DSP graph as a result of realtime re-wiring of a modular preset.
- Standalone application tempo can now be set to within two decimal places of accuracy.
- Fix for LFOs being incorrectly reset every four bars when using the standalone application.
- Fix for minor issue which caused a changed preset to temporarily be reverted to its ori
