"This new version sees a major overhaul to include up to 16 midi controllers per step (Sysex, NRPN/RPN, named CC's etc)
Enhancements:
▪ new colour scheme - cool blue.
▪ monitor function - enables you to hear steps by touching. Can also play sliders (even whilst not playing) to make MS a controller interface.
▪ complete rework of midi controllers - now have 16 midi controllers :
⁃ Each can be defined as Continuous(0..127), NRPN, RPN, Program Change, Aftertouch, Pitchbend or Sysex (or custom) data
⁃ Can record these into midiSequencer too.
⁃ Optional one byte entry for NRPN & RPN
⁃ CC's can be named to match hardware (will update list on future updates - Novation Ultranova & Waldorf Q & Blofeld)
⁃ Key(polyphonic) or Channel(monophonic) aftertouch on step notes
⁃ Pitchbend (14 bit)
⁃ Hex pad entry for Sysex data (up to 76 bytes) with autolayout
⁃ Sysex data not restricted to sysex - can be any midi data you wish! Chain sysex using multiple CC's.
⁃ Define 16 controllers in one panel - will reload on next runup or save/loaded with your snapshot.
▪ limit controls - will narrow down lower/upper ranges for easy input & clip existing. Note: will reset on load to avoid clipping.
▪ new ornament - 2 note tremolo (octave arpeggio)
▪ new step logic : repeat notes x2 to x8 and stop
▪ latched notes - use for drones (no midi note off sent until unlatched)
▪ performance panel - One touch load with non-empty slot selected now loads immediately. Save Bank for quick save action
