New version 1.42
Old version 1.40
Release Notes v1.42 165 - Release Candidate Improved look of Chord Definition dialog, with better controller naming. You can now select a 4Pockets App and you will be prompted with the parameters that can be controlled for that app. Added support for RingsFX controllers in chord track (require Rings update). Better selection of overlapping song and chord parts. Improved 'Notes to Chords' which quantises note start positions to ensure minor shifts in notes are permitted. However it will only convery block chords. Fixed the issue where the Edit icon in the controller lane ends up with the 'Add Chords' label. Long pressing on a chord/song part within the size area now still opens the Chord Definition dialog. Deep Copy/Paste now work with the chord track. When pasting a single channel only the LOCAL chord track is pasted, when pasting all tracks the GLOBAL chord track is also pasted. NOTE: Long press the main Clipboard COPY button to create a DEEP copy, and long press the PASTE button to paste a DEEP copy. This is different from a normal copy/paste which only copies the notes. A DEEP copy copies controllers and chords. Added the ability to plot a chord track as a ghost track in the editor (for debug purposes). Fixed an issue where controller only packets were processing incorrectly when outputting Notes and not Tone Packets. I now send chord track controllers 1 & 2, even if not sending Tone Packets. Renamed the output Bus to Port in track options.

Release Notes v1.40 159 - Release Candidate You can now create GLOBAL and LOCAL chord tracks and tell each track which to follow. You can LONG press the 'Track' button to set the 'Chord Follow' to GLOBAL/LOCAL, and to set the 'Msg Type' to TONE PKT/NOTES. Re-worked the 'Chord Track Options' submenu and added more configuration options. NOTE: Any tracks can now send either Note On/Off or Tone Packets using the LOCAL or GLOBAL chord tracks, while the master (Control Out port) can only send Tone Packets using the GLOBAL chord track. Added the ability to drop MIDI clips (from the Media Bay) directly into the chord track and generate chord sequences. These might not be labled exactly as the original since any chord can have multiple names. You can now LONG press on the Add Chord button and choose 'Convert Selected Notes to Chords'. This replaces selected notes within the editor to chords in the chord track. You can also drag selected chords into any position within the chord track by LONG pressing CLIPBOARD and dragging into the chord track. This creates a MIDI file of the selected notes which can be dragged to other apps such as the Files App or now into the chord track. Made the Media Bay slightly wider to allow more room and moved the close button inside its boundary. Added a new video to the help which explains the difference between local and global chord tracks. The default setup on installation is now 16 MIDI ports (not 4). When creating a new session the ports are now assigned incrementally to tracks (not always Bus 1). In the Chord Definition dialog, if a CM chord is mofified it says its 'CM (modified)'. When editing a chord notes, if you change the notes back to default for the selected chord it will change type from Cluster to Chord. A chord set to Controllers has a new look when rendered. Added an option to send SysEx Controller Packets from the Chord Definitions dialog. These are not Tone Packets but their own entity with differing Manufacturer ID. To see these additional options press the Expand button in the upper right corner. These options are intended to do things like specify Strum Styles in MIDI Strummer select or Drum Patterns in DigiStix 2. These apps need updating to take advantage of this feature. Modified the Track selection menu to display an astrix (*) next to the track IF that track is following a chord track. I now display the global chord track ON/OFF status in the chord lane. Added the ability to turn the global status ON/OFF from the chord track popup menu selecter. Fixed an issue with sticking selection in the Chord Track which didn't dissapear when the finger was lifted. Fixed an issue not being able to position the cursor in the chord tracks ruler when Sync is enabled. Fixed a MAJOR issue with sending cluster packets. Please test again. Fixed the LONG press on the Select button in the chord track. It now shows the correct menu for the chord track.

Release Notes * Added the ability to embed JPG images into the Lyrics field. You can attach images to the Documents section of a song, then go to the Lyrics field, click the desired location, click the Image button and select the desired image. By default, the image will be sized to fill the width of the document viewer, but you can make it smaller by changing the Width In Lyrics setting on the document edit page. You can assign embedded images to specific users as with other documents. When an image is embedded into the Lyrics field, it will not appear in the Document button or from the Next/Previous Document functions. * Changed how standard layouts are added to new accounts. The first time you open a new account in the app, instead of prompting you to select a layout template, $site_name will automatically add a landscape and portrait layout from the More Buttons template. Also, instead of those initial layouts being assigned only to you, they will be assigned to everyone in your account. This means everyone in the account will have a layout to use without having to make any selections or change any settings. You can still add different layouts using the other layout templates, and those additional layouts will still be assigned only to you by default. • Updated the MIDI Controller Messages options on the Settings > App Control page to allow triggering an action from any MIDI controller number. The only exceptions are CC 0 and CC 32 (bank MSB and LSB), which can only be used with incoming program change messages. • Updated every instance of a song's Tags field to display in the tag sort order. • Updated the Capitalize Text setting on the document viewer to stop capitalizing bracketed text or chord lines. • Updated the external display functionality to use all the current document viewer's settings if you connect the external display after viewing a set list. • Fixed the alignment of the Lyrics field on an eternal display when its alignment is set to Centered or Reversed. • Fixed the initial alignment of the Lyrics and Notes fields when their alignment is set to Centered or Reversed. • Fixed the Alignment option on time fields in song layouts. • Fixed a problem that left the tempo playing if you changed to a song with no tempo while the previous song's tempo was still playing and Settings > App Control > Actions > Start Tempo was set to Song Selection. • Fixed a problem that stopped the new recording at the end of the outgoing recording if you start a cross fade closer to the end of the outgoing recording than the cross fade duration. • Fixed a crash when playing a recording attached to a song in the ninth position or greater. • Added a default value of 5% for Settings > App Control > Scroll Document Down ... By Amount. • When changing the users on an event with pay shares entered, stopped clearing all the shares. • Fixed a crash when a user with full viewing access but no editing access edits an event they are not assigned to that has user shares.
