Changelog

What changed, and when.

Lumen 0.3.7

  • Silences button fixed. Exports use your NVIDIA card, start about 45 seconds sooner, and show time left. All features are now open to everyone.

Lumen 0.3.6

  • Remove silences in one click: a new button under the preview cuts the blank spaces from the voice-over, and one more click puts them back.

Lumen 0.3.5

  • FFmpeg now comes with the app, so voice-overs finish on Windows. Clearer dropdowns across the app.

Lumen 0.3.4

  • Local voices on a PC can now download their voice model the first time

Lumen 0.3.3

  • Installing over an older Lumen no longer stops on files in use

Lumen 0.3.2

  • Updates install reliably: Lumen closes everything first and never stops on a file it cannot remove

Lumen 0.3.1

  • Fixes Codex and Claude Code on Windows
  • Sign in button in Connections, and the page now checks by itself
  • Finds your VoiceClone folder on a PC, lists every voice, and lets you give them nicknames
