New version 1.9.1
Old version 1.8
Release Notes MIDI improvements and new features: Implemented a better polyphonic to monophonic conversion algorithm based on most recent played notes. This makes the app work much better with keyboards and MIDI file players. Thank you Jesse Chappell (ThumbJam developer) for the suggestion. MIDI Chanter control for the Fagerström Uilleann Technopipes and other MIDI chanters and keyboard controllers: Connect your MIDI chanter first to your iPhone using a hardware MIDI interface, then launch Tin Whistle MIDI range is chromatic over the complete two-octave range of the instrument. Use the "Channel" control to set your controller's output MIDI channel. Use the "Use Lowest Note Setting" switch setting to enable / disable the bottom note offset for use with MIDI keyboards and chanters. When OFF, (best for use with MIDI keyboards) uses the following notes as the lowest note based on the selected key of the whistle: High-D: 74 High-C: 72 Bb: 70 G: 67 F: 65 Low-D: 62 When ON, set the lowest MIDI note (default is for the Fagerström Uilleann Technopipes 69 - A3) to match your MIDI chanter. Range is from MIDI note 55 to 79. Pitch bend response is based on the setting of the "MIDI Pitchbend Semitones" slider. Range is from 0 to 12 semitones. Default is 2 semitones. Also works as a sound module for MIDI file player apps. New app icon. Swapped my green shirt for a blue one. :-)
