Serum 1.1 Update: Revolutionary Image-to-Wavetable Feature

Xfer Records has released version 1.1 of Serum, introducing groundbreaking functionality alongside important bug fixes and workflow improvements.

Game-Changing Feature: Image to Wavetable Import

Bug Fixes and Improvements

• **Note/velocity graph clearing** via context menu updates immediately
• **Filter rack preset selection** now updates the Filter type label instantly
• **Right-click envelope curve reset** now updates in DSP correctly (not just visually)
