New version 1.9.1
Old version 1.9
Release Notes MULTI-TRACK RECORDING! (In-App Purchase) - Record from multiple MIDI sources (apps, hardware sequencers, arpeggiators, Audiobus inputs etc.) simultaneously onto separate tracks! - Fully automatic: All sources that are enabled in "Settings -> MIDI / Recording" will be detected during recording and tracks will be added by Xequence as needed. You don't need to do anything! - Automatic separation by MIDI source AND channel! Record 4 separate playheads from Fugue Machine at once onto 4 separate tracks, and the arpeggio from StepPolyArp on another! - Recorded parts are automatically named by source and channel. - Each arranger track now has settings for the recording source, which are automatically populated during recording, but can also be configured manually. - Existing tracks will automatically be re-used in the next recording. - Multi-Track Recording can be enabled or disabled with a single tap in the top toolbar. When disabled, all incoming MIDI is merged as usual onto the selected track. NEW: - File manager: FOLDERS and SUBFOLDERS for organizing projects and MIDI files. All your existing files will be organized into folders automatically on first launch. - Arranger: Full support for BANK SELECT, including MSB, LSB, or combined entry. - MIDI Import / Export: Support for Bank Select. - Drums: Added many more FACTORY DRUM MAPS. - Recording: New toggle "Record during Count-In" in MIDI / Recording. Xequence has always recorded notes and controllers during count-in. However, now you can disable this option if you would like to discard any events received during count-in (especially suitable for Multitrack Recording). IMPROVEMENTS: - Arranger & Pianoroll: LIVE PREVIEW OF RECORDED NOTES AND CONTROLLERS during recording, even in Multitrack recording! - File manager: Files and folders can now be double-tapped to open. - Offline sources and destinations are now marked with an exclamation sign instead of the text "Offline". - New, sophisticated handling of application errors: In the extremely rare event of an internal application error, Xequence will now ask you if you would like to try to continue using the app, or quit and restart. - More accurate timing for events recorded from the internal keyboard / controller. - Significantly smoother zooming / scrolling in arranger. - Various user interface improvements. - Various optimizations. MISCELLANEOUS: - Xequence project files now have the official file extension ".xeqproj" (was: ".xeq"). All your existing projects will be automatically renamed. .xeq files are still recognized as well. - When loading MIDI files, the "Import finished" dialog is now shown only once. FIXES: - Fixed layout glitches on iPhone X. - MIDI Export: Fixed track delay not being taken into account when exporting Program Changes. - Fixed a rare problem where settings wouldn't be saved when exiting the app. - Fixed a rare crash when holding a drum pad for dragging and then immediately letting go again. - Fixed a problem where recorded controller events could be time-shifted during loop recording. - Fix missing redraw for grids when changing time signature. - Fix minor redraw glitch on iOS 12 when scrolling the pianoroll editor with PolyHymnia dialog open. - Fix wrong instrument colors in pianoroll editor immediately after switching theme. - Removed "Send to LOOP" button.
