Hi Oleg,
please check drumlane 6.Perc. I guess its broken. There is no midi Output

Thanks for all the work, great. I Love bluearp
Edit:
I checked again about a mistake by me, but cant find one. Line 6 seems there is No Midi Output

Once again BRAVO!!!! Among other improvements, the ability to select more than one string in "one string" mode is exactly what we were talking about. Phenomenal. Now, guitar parts sound much more natural. Thanks!
And, the question, how do we now "convert" guitar patterns from 2.7 to 2.8?

2.8 should load the patterns saved with 2.7. If it doesn't work for you, send me the saved Bank of FL project, I will check it.

Yep, I missed one new bug there, thanks for finding it. Actually what happens is that "roll on n1", "chance", "rand velo" and "rand start" params in DRUM LANE block work only for lane 1.KICK, while they should work for the the selected lane. And for lane 6.PERC "chance" is 0% in the factory bank (a bug as well) and it is hidden. I will fix it and post the update in a few hours.

Here's the quick fix for the mentioned bug, yet only Windows

I'll wait a few days (maybe some other bugs will be revealed) and then post the 2.8.1 officially. If anyone on mac urgently needs this, let me know, otherwise it will be released next Sunday, most likely.

For me the best Controller to develope Strum Rhytmns is the old Guitar Hero Controller. Pure Midi. I know Oleg looks for a free guitar. But in this way i think there should be maybe a collaboration be done. The Musiclab guys are very friendly and have a great support for projects. For example, they did in a collaboration write the code for guitarix a open source linux guitar effects project and integrate it like blue arp is integrated now in Unify. at least they have done a keyswitch based strum libary of 1200 strum patterns they include in their libary.
I have done additional 1200 strum patterns and picking patterns special for eastern meditatarian sea culture so implemented arab, lebanon and other rhythmns. after my first tests the guitars are fully compatible and bst use with blue arp. Ok the guitars are not free but in a collaboration its possible to find a sollution i think... i can contact them in case of needs.
my hope is Oleg decide to do an intensive test. I do for the moment a libary for Unify effects with my husband in 3D Dolby Atmos Audio and we have done more than 900 presets now. if there is ageneral decition done... maybe not free than i can force to give input to the presets list.
here an example how versatile this is...

BlueARP v2.8.1 update. Only bugfixes this time:
https://omg-instruments.com/wp/?page_id=46

Change log:
1. BugFix: "roll on n1", "chance", "rand velo" and "rand start" params in DRUM LANE block work only for lane 1.KICK, while they should work for the the selected lane
2. BugFix: message 'error loading bank: Bank_SetChunk: bank chunk not found' when trying to load older banks (like banks by OPAX)

I'm not going to make any major changes in the following months, want to stabilize this version after lots of changes I made in recent months, maybe some other bugs will be revealed. I don't expect much, but still for me alone it is mealy impossible to test everything, so this happens.... Next thing I'm going to do is to release the same version for the BlueARP DM.

I checked the video, sounds good, but I don't understand how it works and what I can make of it. Is it some kind of library for Unify I can download and check?

First of all I want you to excuse me, because I am Spanish and I am writing this with the translator, I am trying to get several arpeggiated parts of a Muse song, titled Starlight, in each part I have used several programs, in each program I press the first key where the arpeggio begins and I keep it pressed until the next program, and when the parts are linked I have no problems, but there are several parts that are separated by silences until the next part and that is when when I stop pressing the key to go to the next program, what Bluearp does is take me to the beginning of the program, if for example I want to go from program 1 to 2, when I stop pressing the key in program 1, it takes me back to the beginning of that program and what I would like is for it to go to program 2 and wait for me to press a key to play the notes of program 2, I don't know if I'm explaining myself correctly, in this case what I would like Bluearp to do is that in the different chains of the parts, when I press the first note of the arpeggio of program 1, it plays that program with the corresponding notes, but when I stop pressing the key, I go to the next program in the chain and wait for me to press a key again to play that program, I don't know if there is any way to change the parameters so that what I say can be achieved, one thing that occurs to me is in the Arp Engine, in the restart on section, put an option that would be "beat 0 of the next program", well I'm sorry for having gotten so confused, I hope any response in the forum

I would also like it if you could change programs from the midi controller or from the PC keyboard, I don't know if there is a way to do it, but if there is, I haven't found it, my sequencer is Ableton

If you've got Ableton Suite then this m4l device is what I use for changing Program Change values via a midi controller

EDIT: Oops forgot to actually link to the device !! It's this - https://www.maxforlive.com/library/devi ... ram-change
