| Release Notes | If you want to sound like Slayer, get yourself FM Player! We added a... DISTORTION knob! Sorry, Spinal Tap. This distortion does not "go to 11". It goes to a very sensible 10. Plus, "Favorites" now save when you turn the app on and off again. That's quite helpful, right? Includes all the v1.1 stuff: ATTACK & RELEASE knobs. Plus, beautiful new MIDI velocity handling. Why so much attention to detail? You're a musician who cares about sound quality. This free update gives you a dramatic increase in realism while playing with a MIDI keyboard. Please leave a good review, We're still working on FM Player. We think you are all GREAT and we appreciate all your kind words! <3. • We spent weeks coming up with beautiful velocity curves individually tailored to each sound. This was done with code. Meaning, we did not increase the storage space! • Better MIDI keyboard velocity. Each preset has a unique velocity response, inspired by the original hardware. • We found that Attack/Release controls are the most useful envelopes for a sample-based instrument like FM Player. Turn up the Release knob all the way for beautiful and floating sounds. • We updated the GitHub source-code repo with these new Attack/Release controls. Plus, there is a new programming tutorial video on our website, audiokitpro.com • We are all volunteers, working hard for you. We do not get paid anything. And, we make FM Player free so musicians all over the world can enjoy it! You can reach a real person at hello@audiokitpro.com. We care about you and will read every email personally! WORKING ON: We are working on a free Synth app that you will love. And, we are working on making FM Player more power efficient. Plus, other improvements you have emailed. In the meantime, it might be best to completely close FM Player when you are not using it to save battery use. We appreciate your patience with us as we figure this out. <3 Please note that we all are volunteers. AudioKit does not have any sponsors or investors. We are all musician/developers who love making apps. Any help spreading the word about this app would be appreciated. The more people that know about the apps, the more musicians can enjoy them! Thank you! |

| New version | 1.3.3 |
| Old version | 1.3.2 |
| Release Notes | In this version (1.3.3): - added a stereo delay effect per part (also known as Haas effect), controlled from the Part Parameters menu. You can specify the delay time between left and right channels in milliseconds, or turn it off for the part (by default); - added new utility function: Shift part one step left or right, located in the Utils menu; - chain mode: now, if you switch chain mode to "on" during playback, you won't have to restart the current pattern to make chain mode work; - added 4 factory preset patterns (named "Acid-1988"); - some of factory preset patterns were slightly modified to use new stereo delay effect, introduced in this update. In previous version (1.3.2): - "Save to New..." function during playback now immediately switches to the new saved pattern without having to wait for current pattern to end; - "Export Pattern Audio" functions were renamed to "Render Pattern Audio" for clarity; and "Export Pattern" (.gr16 format) functions were renamed to "Share Pattern" accordingly; - "Render Chain Audio" and "Render Chain Stems" functions added, allowing you to render a chain of patterns, starting from current pattern, into one big audio file (or stems archive) for export. Be sure to turn "Chain Mode: On" setting to enable and use these functions; - a progress bar added when rendering audio, with the "Cancel" button, allowing you to cancel rendering in the middle of the process if needed; - bug fixed: patterns with non-standard rhythm base (especially 16 Triplets) were playing back and chained incorrectly; - several minor, but important bug fixes. |
