### 1.2.0.3 (2023-05-09)

### 1.2.0.2 (2023-05-08)

- NEW: New MIDI LFO shape: "Random Notes" added to the list of LFO shapes available at the MIDI LFO output. Random Notes outputs clocked random voltages, which are quantized to semitones. You can constrain the octave distribution by using the new LFO Level and LFO Polarity options in the Intellijel Config app's MIDI LFO section (see below).
- NEW: LFO Level parameter in the Intellijel Config App's MIDI LFO section. This sets the maximum output voltage (amplitude) of the MIDI LFO to either 1V, 2V, 3V, 4V or 5V (the default). NOTE: This parameter is only available via the Intellijel Config app, and can not be set on the front panel.
- NEW: LFO Polarity parameter in the Intellijel Config App's MIDI LFO section. This selects whether the MIDI LFO is Unipolar or Bipolar (the default). When set to Bipolar mode, the LFO output ranges between the negative and positive voltage set by the LFO Level parameter. NOTE: This parameter is only available via the Intellijel Config app, and can not be set on the front panel.
- NEW: Support for MIDI Portamento mode. Specifically, CC 65 (Portamento Control) on Cascadia's MIDI Channel turns portamento ON (value = 127) or OFF (value = 0). Sending CC 5 (Portamento Time MSB) on Cascadia's MIDI Channel sets the portamento time from 0 seconds (CC 5 = 0) to about 1.1 seconds (CC 5 = 127), slewing the pitch.
- Minor bug fixes and performance enhancements.
- Updated manual and Config App (1.4.1.0 or higher required) available at intellijel.com/support.

### 1.1.0.0

- Initial Release.
