Unity Balancer v0.8.2

New: Limiter page now has a "GR Lnk" control -- links the mastering compressor's current gain reduction into the limiter's Input Drive, for automatic, program-dependent gain compensation. Off by default.
Removed the SPECTRUM view from the Compressor page (WAVE and CURVE remain); it showed general frequency content with no connection to compression, so it added no diagnostic value there.

Previously in v0.8.1:

Fixed: the CURVE view (Cmp-Vari page) could appear frozen and not update live -- now updates in real time like WAVE and SPECTRUM.
macOS installer: CLAP is now offered as an installable format alongside VST3 and Audio Unit.

Compressor page live view: added a third "CURVE" view alongside WAVE and SPECTRUM, showing the compressor's live transfer curve (input-to-output response) with a moving position indicator. Click the view button to cycle through all three.
Improved the WAVE view's gain-reduction highlight color for better visibility.
Fixed an issue where the SPECTRUM view could render incorrectly.

New plugin format: CLAP is now available on macOS alongside VST3 and Audio Unit.

Compressor page: new live waveform display shows exactly what the compressor is doing in real time, with a blue highlight over the moments it is reducing gain, plus live Output and Gain Reduction readouts in the same view.
New switchable frequency spectrum view on the Compressor page (the "SPECTRUM" button next to the waveform).
Hover tooltips added to nearly every remaining control across all pages.
macOS installer: choose which plugin format(s) to install (VST3 and/or Audio Unit) when both are available.
Removed leftover beta/serial messaging -- Unity Balancer is completely free, no license or serial number required.

Meter page: the five meters (In, Out L/R, Gain Reduction, Correlation) are now grouped into one unified panel instead of five separate tiles.
New live release-time graph on the Cmp-Vari page: see exactly how the Dly/Fast/Avg/Slow controls blend together in real time as the program material changes.

Meter page redesigned: separate left/right output level meters plus a dedicated gain-reduction meter that falls from the top as reduction increases, all in one view.
Limiter Lookahead is now a real, adjustable control (Limiter page).
New Compressor Sidechain HPF control (Cmp-Vari page): keep the compressor from reacting to low-end content below a chosen frequency.

Help manual rewritten in full: every chapter now explains what each control does, why it was designed that way, and a recommended starting value.
Session report (REPORT button) redesigned with clear section headers per module, plus host name, sample rate, and latency.

Help has been redesigned as a proper chaptered manual: click "H" and pick a chapter on the left (Rider/Pre/EQ/Cmp-Vari/Phase Guard 2/ Limiter/Meter/Routing/Controls/License) instead of one long scrolling page.
Fix: hover tooltips were invisible (hidden behind the main panel due to a z-order issue) -- now display correctly.

Hover tooltips added: hold your mouse over Ceiling/HardCl/True Peak on the Limiter page, Phase Guard/Bypass/M-S/Adaptive, the Pre/Post Comp buttons, or the REPORT button for a short explanation.

Clicking the status line (ticker) now jumps straight to the matching Help chapter.
New "REPORT" button on the Meter page: exports a session report (all parameters plus current meter readings) as a text file.

Name simplified from "Unity Balancer RC" to "Unity Balancer".
4x oversampling: the full signal chain (Preamp through Limiter) now runs internally at 4x sample rate for the cleanest sound and to prevent inter-sample clipping.
Hard Ceiling and True Peak are now visible and adjustable on the Limiter page, and are guaranteed to never be looser than your Ceiling setting -- the plugin always applies the stricter of the two.
Pre/Post-Comp routing buttons (Pre/EQ page) now indicate whether that signal path has been fully verified or is newly added.
Version number now visible in the header.
