v1.0.2

BREAKING CHANGE

The main engine has been updated and a new parameter added. Existing patches may sound somewhat different.

The relative volume of modulated and demodulated signal could be hard to balance: it can now be modulated with the "Demod Vol" knob.

Also, since the size of all the orbits is variable, the audible planet or planets may pass very close to the equant, or even through it, resulting in sharp corners and/or discontinuities. This could (and can) be avoided by making the outer orbits smaller, but that also reduces their contribution to the overall sound. The new "Squash" parameter (in the "Timbre" section) flattens the outer orbits along a tangent to the central orbit, as seen below. This brings them farther from the center without diminishing their effect as much as reducing their radii would, since the modulated portion of the signal depends only on the angle about the center (or equant, if displaced). For now, this change is not reflected in the orbital animation, but the general effect can be seen below.
