| New version | 20.1.4 |
| Old version | 20.1.3 |
| Release Notes | FIXED: Allow mixes to work where a Cell's underlying Template has been deleted or is no longer available (for example, a user saved Template [.noatikl file]); All Cells include all Template data, edited/amended as relevant, and Cells with missing Templates no longer appear as empty or display a Red bar but instead the Cell Info File Path field has ” (MISSING)” appended to the end; NB: Cells with missing WAV/MIDI files still display a Red bar IMPROVED: Display of text for Mix content cells and IME Voice cells where the text was always single line and was scaled to fit (and so could be unreadable) is now multi-line, word-wrapped on spaces, centered and scaled to fit IMPROVED: Display of text on small screens better as the IME parameter group name is now multiline so the whole name is visible, and Synth/MIDI/FX cells have better text sizing IMPROVED: File Path display in Cell Info: - Always shows full file path, rather than just "-" for files without "parent" folder - If the file path has a complex parent path that we think represents e.g. the iCloud folder or the Wotja Folder, then we replace all of that with “[Wotja]/” - If the app thinks the content is from a Pak, it prefixes the path with "[Pak]/" CHANGED: Documentation link #player-box changed to #player-playlist If anything is not working right then please do get in touch via our Help Page 'Contact Us' options. P.S. If you enjoy this release (and more will come during 2020), then please do leave a positive review and rating - we really appreciate them! Tim and Pete |

| Release Notes | I am very happy to announce a great new feature! The addition of audio sequence playback! Now you can create any audio type like a tone, sweep or noise and assign a custom duration. Create as many of these elements and play them sequentially, one after the other. Like with a Playlist. Editing is supported as well. Also re-arranging of the elements is implemented. And there is playback control using buttons for prev/next, play/pause and stop. Tap on the "Play Sequence" button to get started. Three example configurations will be auto-created at the first start. |
