JEDIPALM / MONOLITH 0.6.6 — Apple silicon early access

Requires an Apple silicon Mac, macOS 12 or later. Logic Pro 11.1.2 on M4 Max
has been tested. VST3 passed pluginval; other DAWs have not yet been verified.
Intel Mac, Windows and AAX builds are not included.

INSTALLATION
1. Save your DAW session and quit your DAW.
2. Extract the zip.
3. In Finder choose Go > Go to Folder and open ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/
4. Copy Monolith.component into Components (AU / Logic Pro), or copy
   Monolith.vst3 into VST3. Create the target folder if it does not exist.
5. Reopen your DAW. In Logic, add Audio FX > Audio Units > Nullforge > Monolith.
   If needed, use Logic's Plug-in Manager to rescan Monolith only.
For the standalone app, copy Monolith.app into Applications. Select your audio
interface in the application's audio settings; use headphones or monitors.

This development release is ad-hoc signed, not Apple-notarized. macOS may block
it after download. If it does, follow the security prompt in System Settings >
Privacy & Security to allow this specific app only if you trust the download.
Do not disable Gatekeeper or system-wide security. Some macOS/host combinations
may require a future notarized release before the plugin will load.

NEW IN THIS BUILD
JediPalm branding, a steady front-facing amp, gentle LED fades and no full-image flashing, and five factory tones.
Drive it Deep now uses the saved DriveItDeep2 revision.

QUICK START
Sovereign is the default. Use a dry guitar signal, set your interface to avoid
clipping, and start with a modest monitor level. Grave Current / Drop C shifts
a Drop D guitar down two semitones. PITCH ON adds about 53 ms at 48 kHz; switch
PITCH OFF for the normal 6-sample plugin latency. Audio interface/DAW latency is
additional. Built-in cabinets are synthetic; custom WAV IRs are supported.
