| New version | 5.2 |
| Old version | 5.1 |
| Release Notes | • MIDI In Device supports the MIDI 1.0 High Resolution Velocity Prefix (CC88) for note-on velocities, so MIDI 1.0 note velocities can be 14 bit. • MIDI Keyboard Mapper: mapping poly aftertouch or channel aftertouch to (per note) controllers or pitchbend works better. • External MIDI Instrument: The Bright, Reverb and Chorus knobs can change to different MIDI controllers, depending on MIDI-CI or the patchmap file used. Scroll buttons appear if the number of knobs exceeds 3. • MultitrackStudio Instruments: Acoustic pianos now have true continuous half pedaling. (half pedal range = 48..80) • MIDI file lyrics: line breaks are now read from imported files, and saved to exported files. MultitrackStudio only allows line breaks between bars (not within a bar). • There's no longer a limit on the number of markers which can be read from a MIDI file. A confirmation dialog appears when there are more than 20 markers. You can see the markers before actually importing them. • Fixed: some dialogs could hang on 8th gen iPad. • Fixed: issue with Note Velocity Editor showing only the notes of the selected drum note. |
