GURU v1.5.12 - 27th November 2007
Copyright 2007 FXpansion Audio UK Ltd.
READ ME -- Changes from v1.5.1 to v1.5.12
v1.5.12:-
* Fixed a Pro Tools / Windows - specific bug which would cause PT to exit when GURU is used in conjunction with VST-wrapped plug-ins
* The "Paste Pads" option on the Engine context menu did not work. Fixed.
* Fixed some minor bugs in the stand-alone application
v1.5.10:-
* Fixed some bugs in the pattern editor's cut, copy and paste routines
* You can now re-tune the pitch of a loop to fit the current tempo. CTRL+SHIFT+click on the TUNE knob to snap the tuning for a single layer, CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+click on the TUNE knob to snap the tuning for all pads & layers in the engine.
NOTE:- this works both for sliced loops (loaded via the Loops browser), and whole loops (loaded via the Pads browser)
v1.5.9:-
* Bug fix only -- Leopard compatibility, preview volume, MIDI export velocities, exported loop file length, plug-in toolbar (Bypass button, etc.) in PT
v1.5.8:-
* Bug fix only -- REX file issues
v1.5.7:-
* An option has been added to disable slice normalization and the associated velocity-sensitive score detection
v1.5.6:-
* Improved slicing in SINGLE mode
* Improved slice classification / score detection
v1.5.5:-
* Can now change the selected effect for Aux 1, 2, 3, Mix FX and Master FX
using MIDI CCs 15 through 19 respectively.
v1.5.4:-
* The transport UNDO button now operates as a single stage undo for any PATTERN or GRAPH edit operation
* Commit (G#2) and Undo (A#2) are now available on channels 1-8, 9, 11
* Pad Edit parameters for the current on-screen Pad can now be tweaked by CCs 33 to 63 on channel 12. More documentation on this to follow.
* In Pattern Edit-Graph Select mode (the view where you see a pattern editor with the graph picker to the left), the Randomizer now shuffles existing hits rather than creating new ones or destroying existing ones. In regular Pattern Edit and Graph Edit modes, it functions as before.
* Two new and initially empty folders will be created in your GuruData folder, "MidiKits" and "MidiSongs". When the "Receive Program Changes" option in the MIDI options page is on, sending Pgm Ch on channels 1..8 will load a kit on the respective engine from the MidiKits folder. Pgm Ch on 10 or 12 will load a song from the MidiSongs folder. They are ordered alphanumerically, therefore to keep things manageable, we suggest naming kits and songs in that folder "000 808 Dry.kit", "001 Acoustic Rock.kit" et cetera. It's up to you to manage these folders yourself using Finder or Explorer -- it's your decision as to what the selection of kits/songs GURU can load from is.
v1.5.3:-
* Randomize control is automatable from MIDI, and responds on channels 1..8
* SHIFT+click-dragging on a graph moves all steps in the graph
(NB:- graph values will be clipped destructively if they go beyond the top or bottom of the graph's range)
* The data path can now be set direct from the GUI in the options page
* Scenes now respond on channels 9 and 11 as well as 1..8
* The Browser is now remote-controllable on MIDI channel 13
* There are now MIDI note commands on channel 12 to switch screen mode (sequence, pad edit, mix etc.)
* REC and PLAY are available as commands on MIDI channel 12
* The stand-alone version now allows you to choose which output you'd like to use for multi channel audio devices, and allows you to pick a sample rate
* An option was added allowing QWERTY keyboard shortcuts to be entirely disabled
* The GURU logo can now optionally be used as a panic button again (stops playback of all voices), and a remote control command on channel 12 was added for this
* An option 'Allow record to all engines at once' was added, which allows you to record to all engines simultaneously. When this option is OFF, only the currently selected engine is recorded to.
* A context menu has been added to the Scenes, allowing you to cut, copy, paste and clear scenes
v1.5.2:-
* the "hide sample folders" option now affects both panes in the browser (files and folders, not just files)
* you can now nudge all notes a in pattern together using alt/shift on the nudge buttons; hold ctrl to nudge 4 steps at a time
* key modifiers for mute+solo in sequencer now work properly
* shift+dragging a pad now swaps lanes in all patterns in the engine
* CHOP sensitivity range is now wider, allowing you to chop longer loops in to 1-bar segments
* new MIDI CCs to adjust sample start/end points --> 78 and 79 for 'current sample' on ch 1-8 and 12, also entries 30 and 31 in NRPN table. On channel 12, CCs 78 and 79 are affected by the Edit Scope modifiers -- see the MIDI Implementation documentation for more details
