Release Notes Fugue Machine 1.5 — iPhone support, AUv3 support, more scales, piano roll gesture improvements, and more! See 1.5.0 Version History for more info. 1.5.3 CHANGES MIDI OUTPUT SETTINGS (AU) Similar to the standalone app, you can now set per-playhead MIDI channel in the AU. For more details, in the AU, go to More Menu > Settings. NOTE-LENGTH CHANGE DETECTION Improved one-finger note-length change detection. Much better at higher zooms now. As before, simply pan-right at a note's right-edge to change its length. CHANGED AU NAME The AU is now simply named 'Fugue Machine'. Some users were having trouble finding the previous name, 'FM.au'. Please note, depending on your AU host, this may cause issues. If you experience any issues, simply open the Fugue Machine standalone app and go back to your AU host. If that doesn't work, try restarting your iPad.
