Highlights of new features added since the v2.0.294 beta
- triggering of chords via midi input as in tonespace 1.0
- new chord fitting algorithm that fits chords to the current scale/key
- completely overhauled chord voicings (now up to 25 different ones)
- new chord filter parameter
- new chord display
- you can now click & hold a cell which then keeps playing
- fixed: updated manual with information on features added since public beta 2.0.294
- new: added pdf manual version
- fixed: mode 'Midi triggers note (modulated)' transposed some notes an octave too low
- fixed: some slight factory preset tweaks
- new: added 'Monads' chord filter option, making it possible to use the chord fitting assist modes also with single notes
- fixed: slow startup of the tonespace UI on OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard
- fixed: Logic revalidating tonespace AU component every time during start up
- fixed: 'none' chord displayed in balzano 3-shape
- fixed: note was not released when mouse up on disabled cell
- fixed: hold notes until next click did not work as users expected
- fixed: crash in Ableton Live on Windows when closing VST gui while tonespace help/about dialog still visible
- new: 'trigger' parameter replaces the 'on midi' parameter and controls when and how cells are triggered (either by mouse and/or by incoming midi notes)
- new: midi triggering offers several variants, including triggering on mouse clicking, mouse hovering or by incoming midi note as in tonespace 1.0
- new: triggering by midi notes can optionally transpose/modulate incoming midi notes from CMajor into the selected scale/key (allows to play 'white keys only' and still generate chords that are in key)
- new: 'on click' parameter replaces the 'mouse' parameter and controls whether chords are released on mouse-up or held until next click
- new: 'assist' parameter offers new chord assist modes, including a mode for fitting chords to a scale/key instead of to the space.
- new: with chord fitting to scale/key: when more than one chord is possible you can either take the best one, cycle through all, or pick a random one for an arpeggio-like effect
- new: 'chord filter' parameter allows to restrict the types of chords that are used by chord assist algorithms. Select between 2, 3 and 4 note-chords. This also reduces the number of chord assist parameter modes, as they longer have to select the chord size
- new: 'voicing' parameter has been extended with new inversion types and open/close modes. The old open/open+/open++ modes are now called spread/spread+/spread++
- new: the currently hovered and/or clicked root cell is now also higlighted, so you always know where you are in the grid, even when using chord voicings with a different root note
- new: last played and estimated next chord names are displayed
