Version History - Fixing a crash that appears in DAWs that have limited MIDI support for AUv3. 1.6 Mar 13 - Bug fix: save / load presets via a DAW host.
- Option to provide an alternative MIDI note for open hi-hat sounds. There is only one hihat model, and the sound is open or closed depending on the current decay value. By setting an alternative MIDI note, you can send a different signal to an external MIDI receiver when the hihat sound is open or closed.
- Option to let MIDI channels 2-16 trigger chromatic drum sounds for the respective drum pads 1-15, while MIDI channel 1 will still respond to the MIDI notes of the different drum pads (i.e. the default behaviour). Drum pad 16 can not be triggered chromatically. 1.5 Feb 28 - MIDI and bus settings state of the app can be saved in DAWs such as AUM.
- Almost all controls can be MIDI mapped with MIDI learn.
- Drum kit functionality was added. You can now load, save, export, import drum kits.
- Randomize button to generate random drum sounds.

- Output busses: Fixed a bug + the output now contains the output signal without volume or panning changes.
- Long press on a pattern knob will open the pattern, but the sequencer will continue playing the previous pattern (when in manual mode).
