After a long, long period of R&D and subsequent beta testing, I am proud to announce the next big version of
It finally brings together everything researched and developed over a period of 4 years, only some of which could be glimpsed in the 1.4.x development versions.
What's new
1.5 is a massive release, jam-packed with enhancements, features and exciting signal-processing innovations;
- Create and process complex composites as if they were simple
DSLR datasets. The new Compose mode processes luminance (detail) and color separately in parallel. In a world first, processing LRGB, LLRGB, LSHO and more in one go without combining later is now possible and yields cleaner results to boot due to cross-dataset signal consultation. Video of LLRGB example here and video of LSHO example of the iconic Hubble Pillars of Creation here. - Multiple years of work have gone into improving the signal evolution Tracking engine performance across all modules. Noise mitigation and signal fidelity preservation is more effective than ever before,
- New presets and a brand a new module (video here) are now available for quick and intuitive manipulation of narrowband datasets.
- Many other quality-of-life improvements are included, such as pre/post-tweak buttons, hot keys, UI overhaul, optimizations, new docs and videos, STREPLAY support and much, much more. See CHANGELOG file in the download for details.
Many thanks to the beta testers and those sending me datasets here on
