Will be fixed asap! Thx for reporting this!

M8.0.56 is available in http://www.mutools.com/mulab/m8/

What's changed:

Menus and treelists: Arrow left closes parent group, also when pressed on a closed group.
Quantize Adjacent Events now also in audio sequence function group.
Oscillator layers editor: Drift parameter was not grayed for unused layers. Fixed.
Composer: Merging non-audio sequence parts popped up an irrelevant question. Fixed.
Right-click = Delete Notes preference: Now this is limited to right-clicking the start/end of a note.
Also [Ctrl]+clicking a note to delete it must be on the start/end of a note.
By these changes [Ctrl]+click / right-click to delete a note use a same method.
And a right-click on the body of an event can still open the context menu.
Sequence editor: Playing labeled keys (eg MuDrum keys) could play another key than expected. Fixed.

How to update:
Windows: Replace the current MuLab.exe and MuLab.ID by the new versions.
MacOS: Replace the current MuLab.app by the new version.

NB: Versions M8.0.53-M8.0.55 were unpublished.

M8's time stretching can also be used in sampler modules.
Using more extreme stretch factors, interesting soundscapes can arise.

Been playing with the step sequencer and found some weirdness. The knobs within the grid (LEN, OFS etc.) keep incrementing their value (in the digit info field) despite knob rotation reaching its full clockwise limit. Also in the Mod Group section, typing a number into the LEN box just jumps to the full 400%.
I have been experimenting with the step sequencer driving individual sequencer modules without any use of the main timeline sequencer, i.e. I don't press the play button. Both the step sequencer and sequencer respond to tempo but don't seem to line up with each other. To be specific :
I set up a step sequencer for 32 steps with one event on step One (step per beat=4 so 2 bars). I adjust the length to max and also Mod Group to max. This should create a midi-on event on step One and a midi-off event at the end of step 32? I use the output to drive a sequence module with a 2 bar sequence and thought this sequence would re-trigger correctly at step 1 as the step sequencer loops. Well it seems OK until you change to another pattern in the step sequencer when the triggered sequence runs over to the next loop of the step sequencer and stops somewhere in the middle. It's as if the step sequencer and sequencer module are running on different tempos.
Running the main sequencer seems to pull them together but I wondered why that was necessary? What I am trying to do is set up live versions of my songs whereby various step sequencer patterns switche "scenes" consisting of my various sequences. Bit like Ableton really, but I just love Mulab that I can't bring myself to use anything else!!!!
Thanks!!!
Paul

That's intended. Thing is that the range of the Length value is much bigger than the range of the knob. So the knob does an exponential value increase: The most relevant small values get most knob range, the bigger values are near the end of the knob range. Does this clarify it?

Also in the Mod Group section, typing a number into the LEN box just jumps to the full 400%.

I see, that looks like a little bug. I've taken note about it. Thanks for reporting this!

Please email me a little project (no VSTs pls) that demonstrates the issue. Thanks.

I very much understand your goal and i know you're not the only one who wants that !

Another bug: The shift+scroll wheel to change velocity of events in tens seems to be missing in M8

Taken note, thx!

That exponential value increase solves the problem! Although I thought the knob was fully clockwise, I was actually at some random value. I now see the figure in the info box is: number of steps x 100. Getting the correct number of steps makes everything line up as expected.
Looks like my "live" method is a go-er

One last question.... is there a way to enter a value directly for LEN in the grid? Or can I only do it by dragging the knob? The "alt" click method sadly doesn't work to get max; it just deletes the event as per a normal click.
Thanks again!
Paul

Currently not.

Me too!!!

MuLab is simple and elegant compared to other DAW's, even if it lacks certain features

M8.0.57 is available in http://www.mutools.com/mulab/m8/

What's changed:

When previewing audio files from disk, but that file was already loaded as a sample (and maybe edited), then that sample was previewed instead of the original audio file. Fixed.
Sequence editor: [Shift]+dragging/wheeling velocity values did not step by 10 anymore. Fixed.
Samplers: [Shift]+dragging/wheeling the stretch factor now steps by 100. (was 1000, which was too much)
Finetuned the description of the Right-Click Notes = Delete Notes preference.

How to update:
Windows: Replace the current MuLab.exe and MuLab.ID by the new versions.
MacOS: Replace the current MuLab.app by the new version.

I am a little bit puzzled opening Mulab 8 beta 0.56 that program told me that my user key will expire in 10 days, I thought it was a permanent one already (at least I entered a second one after the temporary one sent to me as "Your Personal MuLab 8 User Key") ?
