zenAud.io upgrades ALK incorporating new UI feature and more bug-fixes

zenAud.io has updated ALK, a looper/sequencer/DAW music performance software application for Mac, to v1.0.30, featuring bug-fixes and a new audition recording feature.

Features:

• Always audition while recording: This feature gives more fine-grained control over how auditioning occurs during a performance. While the default behaviour is for auditioning to be automatically on during live performance, a switch allows you to turn it off.​​​​​​ This can be useful if you record the same signal to two tracks simultaneously but only want to hear one at at any given time.

Bug-fixes:

• Audio waveform rendering bug which caused a crash in following circumstances:
  • Importing a song-length audio file (i.e. reasonably large).
  • Clip Loops set to on.
  • Play Offset set to negative value (i.e. shift waveform to the right).
  • Zoom into track in question at the beginning of the song.
• Bug which caused the timing of tracks to be incorrect if:
  • Loop Clip is off and.
  • Play Offset is negative.
• Open Recent submenu in the File top-level menu:
  • Now lists any files you've opened recently.
• Multi-loop and/or region selection:
  • Now, the items will remain selected and allows you to click/drag and move them again.
• Plug-ins/Plug-in editors:
  • Certain plugins were incorrectly filtered out of the menus. In particular, AU plugins were affected.
  • Plugs that use open GL appeared as black empty rectangles.
• Miscellaneous fixes:
  • Crash in copy/paste code.
  • Clear recently opened files bug.

zenAud.io ALK auto-updates, so all you have to do to update is restart the app.
