New version 5.1.3
Old version 5.1.1
Release Notes * Added the Toneboosters MBC (multi-band compressor) effect: up to 10 bands with configurable cross-over steepness, two compressor curves per band, upward compression, downward compression, positive and negative saturation, and stereo width processing packed in a flexible and intuitive user interface. Yes, that is up to 20 compression curves to sculpt your tracks, busses and masters to perfection! * Updated to the latest Toneboosters code. * When trying to load an IAA FX while another one was attempting to be loaded in the background, the app could crash. Solved. * Selecting an unlabelled drum pad on a large iPad caused an exception message. Solved. * Solved an issue with merging overlapping MIDI clips. * When an effect is removed with the grid display turned off, the grid is now automatically turned on again. * When un-arming an instrument track during monitoring/playback while another track is armed, a sustain pedal 'off' command is sent. * When using count-in recording with a MIDI/instrument track, notes with a timestamp just before the start of the clip are now trimmed to the start such that they are not 'lost'. * Added an option 'All input's to the MIDI input dialog. * Opening the MIDI input dialog will not un-arm the track anymore. Furthermore, all options inside the dialog can be changed in real-time without having to close the dialog first. * When selecting 'New project from template' and the project is empty, no project name is asked initially anymore.

Old version 2022-08-05
Release Notes - Softened the graphic design by adding rounded corners and relying more on background colors instead of border lines to delineate content. - Added more colors of layout background boxes. - Added a Fit to Background Box button to the options popup for text field, multiple button and document viewer layout items. If you divide your layout with background boxes, you can use this option to neatly place items into the boxes. - Added rounded corners to the document viewer when it is not touching the screen edges. You can move the document viewer slightly away from the screen edges for a softer, more spacious look, or place it directly against the screen edges for the maximum viewing area. The rounded corners are mainly visible when viewing attached documents. When viewing the built-in Lyrics field, you can place a background box under the document viewer. This is also a more attractive alternative to the Lyrics Solid Background setting. - Updated newly installed More Controls layouts to use background boxes and More Controls and Split View layouts to use a rounded document viewer. This change is not applied to existing layouts. - Fixed a problem where the last day of multi-day events didn't appear on the calendar. As before, the last day will not appear if the end time is before 4 am.
