Updates
What changed, and when.
Kymatra has no update check and makes no connections of its own, so this page is how you find out there is a new version. The download page always serves the newest one.
Kymatra 1.1
2026-08-26
- Explain every setting. Each row has a help button saying what the control does and which direction it moves.
- Height means height. It now sets how far the trace reaches, and Sensitivity is how loud the music has to be to get there. The old Height only ever fed a soft clip, so most of its range did nothing.
- Undo a setting from the row it sits on, shown only where a value is not at its default.
- A new icon and wordmark, drawn as one letter rather than a letter over a wave.
