Version 2024-04-13 release notes

* Added the ability to pin documents, recordings or MIDI presets to breaks or pauses using the Pinned to All Breaks and Pinned to All Pauses settings on the respective edit pages. To see buttons for the pinned items on the break or pause pages, you can turn on Settings > Advanced > Show Song Buttons on Breaks and Pauses. You can also call the pinned items from app control actions. When you pin documents to a break or pause, the break or pause name and details will appear initially, but you can use the document button or the next/previous document hot spots to view the documents. You can also display the break or pause name and details on the main screen and the pinned document on an external screen using Settings > General > External Display > Content > Doc +1. The Pinned filter on the Documents, Recordings and MIDI Presets lists will show items pinned to songs, breaks or pauses. * Added a count off function to automatically start a recording or trigger other functions after some tempo clicks or flashes. This functionality was previously only available by creating an automation track for each song. To use this new approach, you can set Settings > App Control > Actions > Count Off to a trigger like Layout Actions > Song Selection, then set the actions you want to trigger to Layout Actions > Count Off Completion. Then set Settings > Tempo & Pitch > Tempo Options > Count Off Bars to the desired length, and make sure you have entered tempos for your songs. If you are starting recordings from a count off and a recording doesn't start on the downbeat, you can edit the recording and set the Pickup Length so the recording starts at the correct time before the downbeat. • Fixed a problem where sliders on the Settings pages didn't save unless something else on the page was changed. • Removed an extra row of labels from the first page of a shared set list. • Fixed a problem where the Copy To Clipboard button on the Share Set List page became inactive after changing the output settings.
