Fixes in 2.2.0

  • ƒƒNew insert FX: Gate.
  • New insert FX: Compressor.
  • New modulation destinations: Layer 1-4 cutoff & resonance.
  • Clicking in the title-bar of the librarian cycles through three font-sizes.
  • ƒƒUnder certain conditions, the ARP-shuffle would introduce clicking/noises for the shuffled notes.
  • If an All-Note-Off MIDI-message arrived directly before a Note-On, the ARP wouldn’t start. Mainly Logic was affected.
  • Osc1-4 volume/panning modulations caused zipper-noise.
