Version Notes

Whole number version changes (1, 2) are official releases and will indicate large changes beyond the adding of presets.

Versions changes by the tenth (0.1, 0.2) indicate that new presets have been added.

Version changes by the hundredth (0.11, 0.12) indicate that there have been bug fixes or other changes, without new presets being added.
