Brainspawn updates Forte to v2.1

3rd November 2009

Brainspawn has updated Forte to v2.1.

The following enhancements and fixes are included:

NEW - Dramatically faster startup.
NEW - Improved performance reduces dropouts, especially on scene changes.
NEW - Diagnostic display counts MIDI input and output events and audio dropouts.
NEW - Create and store configuration manifests to help diagnose changes in your rig.
NEW - Plugin Manager allows you to scan VSTs, manage VST folders, mark plugin DLLs to ignore, and find out why a plugin was ignored.
NEW - You can now add or remove plugins via the Plugin Manager without restarting Forte.
NEW - VST Plugin Crash Handler helps pinpoint problems with specific plugins.
NEW - Simplified Plugin Preferences.
NEW - Improved safe mode startup launches plugin manager and audio options.
NEW - Changed some default accelerator key assignments on the numerical keypad to work more easily with large numbers of scenes.
Changed wording of copy command to "Copy an existing instrument module using replacement instrument" for clarity.
Fixed a problem with Control Surface Update Mute.
Fixed ability to double click on a rack file and open it. If Forte is running, it will close the current rack file and open the requested one.
Fixed an issue where changing scenes via MIDI CC (e.g. a pedal) would allow those CCs to pass through to the plugins.
Fixed an issue with exporting racks to Forte 1.6 where the rack files became very large.
Fixed an issue where MIDI sync tempo was not correctly stored and recalled in rack files.
Fixed an issue with MIDI key range training working incorrectly when used with transpose.

Additionally, EHCo has been updated to 2.0.3.
