News

Version 3.11 released

  • A new Generic Midi button is added.

  • Bug fixes.

Please note that this version has some potentially breaking changes:

  • Script variables prefixed with @t_ and @timer_ must be renamed.

  • Script variables are no longer restricted to the Midi value range 0-127.

  • The wrong dual-byte CC command was sent, which is now corrected. If you use dual-byte CC commands, you need to review your settings.

Version 3.10 released

  • For the faders and V-pots on the Generic Midi and Mackie Control dials, you can switch places for the title and the value.

  • Titles on V-Pots and faders are scaled to fit better in the available space.

  • The default min value for dB files is changed from "-Inf" to "-oo". The displayed text can now be set using the value 0 entry in the dB file.

  • There is a new variable to reference in the title fields for the Mackie control dials. #CHNR1# will display channel numbers in the range 1-8, while #CHNR# uses the range 0-7.

  • Bug fixes.

Version 3.9.2 released

  • For the Generic Midi and Mackie Control dials, the left screen tap action is detached from the dial press action and can be configured individually.

  • The Generic Midi dial can send Pitch Bend, Aftertouch and Program Change messages.

  • All dials have a global option to have only a single section open at a time.

  • A Midi state restore option is added, allowing the state of all buttons and dials on plugin startup to be restored to the state they were in when the plugin was last shut down.

  • The "Background Scripts" action has been changed to a "Global settings" action, and background scripts are now a tab in that action, along with settings for Mackie Control and the new Midi state restore feature.
