Metronomics is not only a metronome, but a tool designed to help build a solid sense of time and rhythmic security. It's a new kind of metronome -- use Metronomics to generate random patterns, sequenced grooves, or a combination of both to help you practice with more than just your typical click track.

| Release Notes | 8.0.2: Added a quantized start for Ableton Link users 8.0.1: bug fixes 8.0: A major upgrade to Metronomics! All of the great features from before, completely rewritten from the ground up (Swift!) to ensure Metronomics moves comfortably into the future. New features include: - Time signature denominators -- easily create bars of 5/4, 7/8, 3/16, etc - Folders for Metronomes -- organize your metronomes within Metronomics within Folders - Easy file access -- metronomes and presets are now stored as files that can be accessed from the iOS Files app (or document sharing in iTunes) - Volume knobs on the main screen -- the probability sliders now have easily-accesible volume knobs below them. Slider/knob roles can be switched. - Speech samples -- assign any subdivision to use sampled sounds of a voice saying the numbers 1-10. Great for beginners who need to audibly hear the beat counted out. - Rotation supported on the iPhone -- both portrait and landscape mode work - AUv3 -- use Metronomics as an Audio Unit within other host apps. Ableton Link for sync. - A new manual, plus videos to help understand Meronomics and its features - In-App upgrade to Metronomics Pro available. Included in Metronomics Pro (available as an In-App Purchase): - Dark theme - Arbitrary time signature denominators: besides the included 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64, use other time signature denominators. Anything from 1-100! - Inpector mode: view your soundwaves graphed alongside the metronome to see how in-time you are - MIDI subdivisions: assign a subdivision to play MIDI notes instead of sampled sounds. MIDI can be played from an on-board synth or sent to an external synth app. - Custom sounds: import your own samples to be used in Metronomics (see the manual for a description of how to use this feature) - Export audio: export an audio file of your metronome that can be sent to anyone to play along with, or used as a loop within a DAW or other audio app - Export MIDI: metronome patterns can be exported into a MIDI file that can imported into other apps |

| Release Notes | iPhone support, AUv3 support, more scales, piano roll gesture improvements, and more! See below for more info... // ================================== // NEW FEATURES Fugue Machine now works on iPhone! Fugue Machine now includes an AUv3 MIDI App Extension! Open your favorite AUv3 MIDI Host and run as many Fugue Machines as you'd like! Requires iOS 11.0 or later. The Scale parameter now includes Wholetone, Whole Half, Major Blues, Minor Blues, Major Pentatonic, Minor Pentatonic, and Chromatic. Fugue Machine now properly adapts to the size of the view it's in, with pixel-perfect detail for all devices. // ================================== // USABILITY IMPROVEMENTS The Piano Roll now responds significantly better to gestures. Most noticeably with one-finger note-panning, one-finger note-length changes, and one-finger pan-right note creation. You can now copy/paste Fugue Machine patterns. This works within the standalone app, between the standalone app and AUv3 instances, between AUv3 instances, and between devices. To copy/paste in the standalone app, go to More Menu > Patterns, and long-press on any pattern. To copy/paste in an AUv3, go to the More Menu, scroll to the bottom, and use the copy/paste buttons. When moving notes in the Piano Roll, the Keyboard View and Overview View now show the same notes moving in real time. This is useful while moving notes beyond the visible boundary of the Piano Roll. The View Braces (located in Keyboard View and Overview View) can now have each side moved independently, making it much easier to navigate/zoom the Piano Roll. Until now, when you'd perform a gesture on the Piano Roll and move beyond its boundary, the Piano Roll would automatically scroll in the direction of your fingers. No more! Much more usable now I think. However, if you enjoyed this feature, you can reenable it in Settings. // ================================== // ABOUT THIS UPDATE To be honest, most of this update was unexpected! About a month ago, I decided to venture out on a small FM update to take a break from my main project (a new app I've been working on for over 2.5 years!). My only intention was to update the UI to accommodate the new iPads — more specifically, to handle the Home Indicator and the new aspect-ratio of the 11" iPad. Regarding the new aspect-ratio, I realized that the best way to handle it was to completely refactor the UI to handle any aspect-ratio. This was tedious, but eventually led to the idea of supporting iPhone and AUv3, which, after the UI refactor, was surprisingly trivial! The refactor also led to allowing scales of various sizes (making chromatic possible, finally!). Lastly, supporting iPhone meant supporting smaller screens, which inspired most of the usability improvements. Regarding the Home Indicator, the best way I found to handle that was to just make it go away completely! And the only way to do that is with Guided Access. Not only does Guided Access remove the Home Indicator, but as you may know (I had no idea!), it also disables all other OS edge gestures, essentially isolating your app from the OS. So no more accidentally swiping the control center or notifications! For me, for the way I use iOS to make music (one app per iPad), this is the absolute ideal configuration. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the update, it was a blast to work on :] All the best, Alexander / I'm hoping to post some mini tutorial videos on my new Fugue Machine accounts.

| New version | 1.1.1 |
| Old version | 1.1.0 |
| Release Notes | v1.1.1 - new CC mapping options in advanced settings: Disable, Default and Legacy (see www.deltavaudio.com/about for mappings) - 'Disable' disables all mappings except sustain (CC64), seaboard reserved CCs and all notes off (CC123) - 'Default' is a NEW* mapping (see below) - 'Legacy' is the previous mapping from v1.1.0 - option to select 'no channels' for midi notes in - ability to select midi channel for CC in - added *.m4a audio file compatibility - added feature in advanced settings to change scaling of Y-axis/Slide (grain position modulation) for MPE - fixed bug where notes sometimes didn’t load when opening a preset which included a scale change - fixed bug where visualisation of waveform would not appear in the edge case where an audio file is loaded via the preset panel when in live sampling mode * the CC mapping added recently in V1.0.0 on the App Store unfortunately clashes with some midi standard CC mappings. The new ‘default’ mapping is designed to avoid such clashes, improving compatibility with other apps/devices. For existing users who have used the old CC mapping in their recent projects, you can select ‘legacy mapping’ in advanced settings. However, it is recommended to switch the default mapping to avoid issues in future. Note that this does not in any way impact parameters mapped to CC via an AUv3 host. See website for a list of the default/legacy mappings https://www.deltavaudio.com/about |
