Angry Red Planet has released beta version 1.1 of Sequitur.
General changes:
- Now searches shortcuts in the VST folders.
- The VST menus are categorized according to your file structure.
- For first-time users, added a warning page before the VST setup page that informs about the experimental nature and gives you the opportunity to skip VST setup. VSTs can be setup at any time from a song window by selecting File->Preferences->Audio tab and adding a path.
- Added Width parameter to sine wave.
- No longer require SSE instructions -- will work on Pentium III class CPUs.
- Mouse wheel now supported.
Song Window:
- Drag-and-drop has been improved.
- New commands for shifting the current selection forward and backward in time.
- Added shortcuts for expand and contract commands.
- The expand and contract commands now work on the current selection.
- By hovering over the left or right edge of the currently selected range, you can drag it larger or smaller.
- Expand, Contract, Shift operations now work on time meters and tempos. The measure header now includes strips displaying time meter and tempo information, which you can include/exclude from the selection by clicking on their labels on the left (like including/excluding tracks). When they are included in the selection, operations on the selection will also operate on the tempo and/or meter.
- You can now perform multiple selection of phrases by holding the shift key.
- MIDI device menu is better organized (sorted, etc.).
- The track config view now has volume, pan and expression controls beneath the patch selection. Additionally, selecting multiple tracks will create a 'dynamic mixer' displaying these controls for each selected track.
- Improvements have been made to pipeline editing.
- Clicking a VST node will now bring up a config view for setting the current patch.
- Fixed bug that wouldn't let you set fractional values in the master tempo control.
Track Window:
- Controller strips rewritten. Changes include tab buttons for quickly switching between multiple controllers, better display of controller data, and resizable areas.
- Playback now stops when the mouse button is released.
- Improvements to drawing speed when there are a lot of translucent objects (such as ghost events in the track window).
- Holding down ALT turns off quantization.
- Active tool config view -- when operating i.e. echosystem, its config view is visible and properties are set appropriately.
- Tool assignments are now retained.
- Additional editing commands in the menu for moving or changing values of the selected events.
