New version 4.105
Old version 4.104
Release Notes • Added new option to the Drone Accompaniment Style. You can now specify for the Drone Accompaniment to be a Dyad (2 notes of a chord). The Dyad can be the 1-5 (root and 5th), 1-3 (root and 3rd) or 3-5 (3rd and 5th). The Dyad drone adds a subtle harmonic color and texture without the fullness of a chord. This is great for Ambient tracks. • Fixed crash that can happen when calculating the number of chord notes for Rolled Chords (AUv3 Plug-In Only). • Fixed crash that can occur when changing from Bluetooth to Speakers and vice versa. • Fixed issue where setting a lock for the Drone Accomp Style isn't working correctly.
