LiveLab.dk has released version 1.3 of LiveSlice, which also adds a VST effect version allowing you to record loops - live - for instant LiveSlicing. Additionally this release includes a number of workflow improvements the most significant being Drag'n'Drop support. New flash demos will be available soon.

Changes since v1.2

New features:

• Live input.
• Drag'n'Drop slices to tracks.
• Preview slices in the arranger.
• MIDI through.
• Loops can now be renamed and saved with a different filename.
• When a loop is not found on disk (i.e. a new recording) it is automatically saved with the song.
• New feature: stretch - automatically pitches all events to make the duration match the project tempo.
• Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info).
• Clicking middle mouse button on a parameter will reset (before it would clear the event underneath).
• Manual sync will now override host sync information (workaround for hosts that provide incorrect sync info).
• Zoom in slicer improved. Reduced the general wobblyness, Zoom / Pan is now activated on double click.
• Manual updated.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug in the file browser that could lead to crashes.
• Fixed problem with some controls not responding when running multiple instances of LiveSlice.
• Quantize would allow overlapping events - fixed.
• Fixed tempo problem in Sonar using DirectiXer.
• Slices were not reversed in the GUI.
• Loop output settings are now cleared on "clear all".
• First event in a track would have too high attack and release.
• Snap no longer affects "lock to loop".
• Error checking when importing cue-points as slices (fixes "silent slices" and "wrong slice num. reported" bugs).
• Setting a MIDI controller to event and then to track mode caused the parameter to stop responding.
• Manual sync would sometimes cause double triggering of the first event.
• Gridlines going solid bug fixed .
• Fixed crashes when triggering empty arrangements and using manual sync.
