New version 1.6
Old version 1.5.2
Release Notes DRUM MAPS (In-App Purchase): - Every instrument can now have a fully customizable drum map (up to 8x8 or 64 pads, any other sizes like 3x4 or 5x2 etc. are also supported). - Access drum maps by tapping the former "Dual keyboard" toggle button at the bottom left of the keyboard screen, and selecting the pads icon. - Drum maps can be edited via drag and drop - Drum pads support positional velocity sensitivity (highly configurable), and glide from pad to pad - Drum names are shown instead of notes in the pianoroll editor. - Various layout editing functions like flip, compact, etc. - Preset system: Drum map layouts can be saved and retrieved across projects and devices. - 9 factory map presets included, more in a free update. SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED SCALES SUPPORT: - Over 70 new scales from all around the world added. - Enhanced scale selector, organized into 10 categories and with visualization of current scale. GREATLY ENHANCED CONTROL ON THE KEYBOARD SCREEN: - Selectable linear or S-shaped velocity curves. - New controller input mode "Key position": When enabled, sets the controller value when a key is struck, depending on the vertical position on the key. Fully configurable modes and curves. Very useful and expressive, especially if a synth doesn't support mapping velocity to a control. - New controller input mode "Key slide": When enabled, the controller's value can be changed by moving your finger up and down while holding a key. Fully configurable modes and curves. Again, lots of expressive possibilities. This mode can also be combined with the aforementioned "Key position" for even more control. OTHER NEW FEATURES: - "Auto-add controllers" option (enabled by default). When recording via MIDI and receiving a controller (CC) that does not yet exist on the current instrument, it will be automatically added. - Added "Prevent display lock" option to settings. IMPROVEMENTS: - Keyboard: Changed the way the keyboard mode (scroll, glide, locked) is selected (reduced to two toggle buttons). - Keyboard: Added Undo and Redo buttons in the bottom toolbar, no more switching back and forth while recording. - Various user interface improvements. - Various optimizations to make the app even faster and more resource efficient. FIXES: - Controller editor: Velocities sometimes didn't update immediately while playing after changing them in "Draw" mode. - Keyboard: Fix occasional wrong note velocities when playing chords. - Fix wrong display of project names that contain dots.
