Release Notes You're Awesome! BIG UPDATES in this Version: + Now accepts MIDI Bank changes via MSB: Use your MIDI controller or DAW to select presets! + Preset Handling Upgrades Cycle through preset categories with left-right buttons at the top (i.e. Keys, Pads, Alphabetically, Favorites, etc) + Bank Numbers added in preset listings + YOU CAN NOW HIDE THE KEYBOARD ON CERTAIN PANELS Hide/Show the keyboard on the Layers Panel, Presets Panel, and PCM Panel to expose more. More panels coming soon... You'll see a new Hide Keyboard button to the right of the "Link" button on certain panels PLUS, NEW FEATURES YOU HAVE EMAILED US REQUESTING: + Returns knob position to target after turning LFO off What does that mean? Set the Layer Mix knob to 50%, then turn on the LFO for that knob. When you turn off the LFO for that knob, the knob will now return to your original 50% setting. That makes it easier to dial in LFO targets. + Tremolo Bypass, if the tremolo depth is 0, tremolo will be completely bypassed + All PCM sound sources are now listed in the Layer panel spinners Some of you let us know that you like to play a game called "Sound Roulette", where you spin the spinners and see what sound it lands on. Sounds fun. And, we endorse that type of behavior! + We've received all your ideas/bug emails and we're working on everything. + Some of you have experienced bugs with the Arp/Sequencer and glitches/slowness. We are working on it – Stay tuned! Email bugs, music, & friendly notes to: hello@audiokitpro.com We're working hard to improve the app for you!
