Elephant v 4.2
May 29, 2015
MacOS X UB
Implemented color scheme editor with load and save functions.

Elephant v 4.1
May 28, 2014
MacOS X UB
Extended the input gain range to +24 dB.
Extended the output gain range to -15 dB.
Made the "Eval" switch to not affect the output statistics.
Extended the "Release Shape" range to 2, offers an extreme punch and "hardness", via an idealized S-curve release shape.
Added "EL-4 BRITE" factory limiter mode.
Made the output signal level to never exceed 1 dB over the Out Gain setting.
Improved the "EL-4" algorithm reducing transient distortion and "boxiness": the sound is more biting less woofing now.
Improved oversampling filters reducing chances of overshoots.

Magnified the "Out Gain" knob's scale around 0 dB.
Made changes to the "Trans Time" parameter stutter-free.
The output statistics are now automatically reset if any parameter that influences the output statistics was changed.
Added "EL-4", "COMPACT" and "EXPANDED" factory limiter modes.
