What's NewIn this version (1.5.2):
- Bluetooth Midi Devices dialog added (Settings menu -> "Bluetooth Midi Devices").
- increased precision of the peak level indicators.
- minor bug fixes.
In version 1.5.1:
- bug fixed when saving Part Sound presets with imported user samples.
In version 1.5.0:
- midi clock (input) synchronization support added, it is disabled by default. To enable it, go to Settings menu, enable Midi Clock In and disable IAA Host Sync and Ableton Link. Also, there is now a midi clock latency adjust parameter in the Settings menu.
- new global setting added: Midi CC Mode. Can be set to either "Catch" (by default) or "Jump". It determines, how GR-16's knobs will react on incoming midi controller changes.
- midi learn feature added. To enter it, quickly tap any desired parameter knob 3 times. Then move your midi controller. When done, tap WRITE button to confirm and save changes. Midi Learn currently works for changing the midi mappings for the knob parameters only.
- midi channel receive filter global setting added. Works only for the "Omni" midi mode.
- part sound presets added. Now you can store your own part sound presets, as well as browse through provided Bank A factory presets. Open presets window by tapping the "Preset >" button on the Wave selection screen.
- sample reverse feature added. Can be set for the entire Part (a new button in the sample view screen), or also for specific notes in a Part (by adjusting note's Stroke parameter). For note stroke setting, there are two reverse modes available: one is a full sample reverse, second if a "half reverse", allowing you to play a sample from its middle point (can be useful in one-shot samples like drum shots); both settings are available by turning the Stroke parameter to the negative direction.
- new value for the pattern "Chain To" parameter added: "Next Pattern", allowing you to chain current pattern directly to the next one in the list. This can significantly simplify the process of creating pattern chains.
- new animation added on the default screen: "Channels", which show all 16 parts current sound peak volumes and their RMS. You can change this animation to Oscillogram, or switch it off from the Settings menu -> "Animation" setting.
- you now have an option for all level meters to show the sound volume as Peak (default), and RMS / RMS+Peak (new), adjustable from Settings menu -> "Level meters" setting.
- bug fixed: when "Poly" setting was set to Off for the Part, the Part could still produce polyphonic sounds in some cases;
- bug fixed: now, if you load a user sample onto a Part, it remembers the sample's folder where it was loaded from;
- improved: sudden sound artifacts (clicks/pops) have been reduced when switching between patterns in non-playback mode;
- 4 new skin schemes added; also, the very first "Default" skin has been changed;
- final factory preset track called "Melbourne Shuffle" added to Bank A, consisting of 6 patterns with examples of using trigger conditions and note sample reverse. These are the last patterns to be added in Bank A.
