| Release Notes | • Moved the crop marker flags to the bottom so two markers on the same position can be told apart. • Improved cropping to keep the punch in and out markers, adapting them to the cropped take. • Raised the MIDI buffer sizes so dense playing and MPE expression are not dropped. • Fixed the first recorded event of a take landing slightly early when the recording starts the transport. • Fixed other armed tracks missing the message that starts the transport when several tracks record at once. • Fixed stopping a loop recording partway through a silent pass erasing the start of the loop. • Fixed MIDI arriving right after Record is engaged from the host being dropped until the tracks were armed. • Fixed recording over existing content erasing the recorded range when nothing was played. • Fixed continuous loop recording losing what was played after a silent cycle. • Fixed the track display blanking while a recording pass that played nothing was running. • Fixed a loop recording pass inside a punch in and out region only being added when the playhead returned to the punch-in point. • Fixed clearing a track while it was recording leaving behind an undo step that did nothing. • Fixed a recording that captured nothing creating an undo step that did nothing. • Fixed a recording never finishing when the playhead never reached the punch in and out region. • Fixed undoing a take also reverting a MIDI file imported into that track while it was recording. • Fixed cropping while recording leaving the running take behind in the uncropped timeline. • Fixed crop and punch markers being impossible to grab where another marker or range covers them. |
