 #### Polyphonic Outputs
-The number of output channels matches the effective input channel count by default. In this case the effective input channels map directly to the output channels. Unused channels are constant 0V.
+By default the number of output channels is minimized to match the selected number of crossfaded channels. In this case the start channel is always assigned to output channel 1, and there are no unused channels in the output.
 
-A module context menu option is available to minimize the number of output channels to match the selected number of crossfaded channels. In this case the start channel is always assigned to output channel 1, and there are no unused channels in the output.
+A module context menu option is available to disable the output channel minimization. In this case the effective input channels map directly to the output channels. Unused input channels become constant 0V in the output.
 
 ### Standard Venom Context Menus
 [Venom Themes](#themes), [Custom Names](#custom-names), and [Parameter Locks and Custom Defaults](#parameter-locks-and-custom-defaults) are available via standard Venom context menus.

 - VCO Unit
   - Shape mode now always has 6 options, regardless which waveform is selected. The square waveform replicates the three options to make 6.
 - Poly Fade
-  - Poly outputs now preserve all input channels by default
-  - Added context menu option to minimize output channels like old behavior
-    - Old patches automatically minimize output channels
+  - Added context menu option to disable output channel minimization
 - Multi Merge
   - Add context menu options to explicitly set the number of channels on inputs, overriding the actual input channel count.
