What's New

Version 1.7

• Blur — pre-dither Gaussian blur smooths the input image before the dither engine, softening dot patterns and reducing noisy edges
• Crush — tonal range compression that pushes shadows and highlights toward pure black/white, narrowing the zone where dithering appears for dramatic high-contrast looks
• Everything from v1.6 plus two new Adjustments controls

Version 1.6

• Per-Channel Dither toggle — quantize RGB channels independently across all algorithm families for color variation
• Variance control — dither pattern density responds to image brightness, thinning out in shadows and filling in highlights
• Improved Scale — smoother block averaging for better-looking downsampled dithering at high scale values

Version 1.5

• Print algorithm family — 8 new styles inspired by physical printing and engraving: Halftone AM, Line Engrave (H/V), Crosshatch Engrave, CMYK Halftone, FM Stochastic, Stipple, and Mezzotint
• Density glow mode — a new glow type where bright pools form around clusters of dithered dots, following the structure of the dither pattern itself
• Algorithm count expanded from 55 to 63 across 7 families

Version 1.4

• After Effects support - full parity with the DaVinci Resolve version
• 20 user-saveable presets with per-section locking
• Randomize with locking - roll the dice on everything, or lock sections you want to keep
• Rent-to-own pricing - monthly payments that accumulate toward owning the plugin
• Custom palette editor now supports Coolors.co URL import
• Performance improvements across all GPU backends

Version 1.3

• Advanced glow system - Simple, Per-Color, and Directional modes
• Full glow controls: intensity, radius, threshold, tint, saturation, softness, angle
• 31 built-in presets for instant creative starting points
• Downscale options from 720p down to 32p for chunky pixel art
• macOS support with Apple Silicon native performance

Version 1.2

• 41 original color palettes across 7 categories - Film Stock, Decade, Genre, Camera, Art Movement, Environment, Hardware
• Custom palette editor with 5 color slots and harmony modes (Analogous, Complementary, Triadic, Split-Comp)
• Reactivity parameter - dither patterns that respond to edges and motion
• Brightness, contrast, saturation, gamma, and invert adjustments

Version 1.1

• Pathfinder algorithm family - 8 space-filling curve algorithms
• Modu family - 6 modulation-based algorithms (halftone, crosshatch, wave)
• Creative family - 7 stylized effects
• Glitch family - 10 destructive algorithms
• Algorithm count expanded from 13 to 55

Version 1.0

• Initial release for DaVinci Resolve on Windows
• 13 dithering algorithms across Scatteral and Grid families
• Basic color palette support
• GPU-accelerated rendering
