❗layer-switch buttons & encoder assignments for the "sequencer" layer have changed❗

  • chan now activates the sequencer-layer (pressing chan again initializes a MIDI sequence)
  • shift + chan activates mix-layer
  • double-tapping shift now permanently activates the shift-layer
  • ... and check the assignments-image for changes in the "sequencer" layer!

new

  • encoder 8 & 16 now work the same in ALL layers
    (now you can always use them to select tracks/scenes or scroll drumracks if shift is pressed)
  • changing layers now automatically switches Ableton-views:
    • control, browser: show DeviceChain
    • sequencer: show MIDI Clip
    • mix : hide Details-Tab

🚀 major updates to the usability of the MIDI note editor (sequencer): Multi-Touch Editing!

  • tap a button to mute / unmute the corresponding note
  • >> touch and hold << one or more buttons + turn the transpose-encoder
    to change the assigned property of the corresponding notes
    • set the "assigned property" (e.g. pitch, velocity, duration, . . . ) via encoder 1-6
    • set loop start/end and position via encoder 9-13
  • if no button is pressed, the transpose-encoder now changes the "assigned property" for ALL notes
    • similarly encoder 15 now sets the "assigned property" of all notes inside the loop
  • ... finally you can also use shift + encoder 1-16 to set the "assigned property" of notes 1-16 directly

fixes

  • deletion of return-tracks now works as expected (control)
  • "load item on new track" no longer creates unnecessary return-tracks (browser)
  • fix error for duplication of clips in the last scene (shift)
  • fix buttons not set to "note-mode" if no layer is active and shift is pressed (shift)
  • properly check start < end condition before setting loop (sequencer)
  • important status-bar messages now remain visible until the layer is deactivated
  • indicate empty group-slots as "magenta" (and "blue" if clips are present inside the group) (launch)
  • better color-indication of the activated layers
