Notes Beta 1.0.5

Hey @Notes_Beta_Testers

We’ve got a new beta of Notes for testing.
Firstly, the instruments are not bundled, so the download should be a lot smaller. In terms of features, we’ve worked on a couple of things related to editing chords and we would like some feedback on the workflows.

To edit chords, hover the chord name and then click the pencil icon. The edit window then appears, from where you can change the chords, do inversions by dragging the chord name left/right and transpose the chords by dragging the label up/down.

Amazing! waiting for Windows installer.

Tiring having to manually delete the AU everytime I install one of your builds.

please and thank you.

I am not getting in sound in standalone, even though I have had the full installs on this computer before… playing a preview I hear sound, but playing via my midi keyboard, no sound..

rsp

Hello everyone, I’m really looking forward to the Windows version!!!

@zvenx can you launch the standalone and check the version number on the about page? You should see below for the version and build time. If that is different let me know.

Can’t wait to get this version for Windows

Hmm you are right, the standalone is showing 1.0.4 but vst showing 1.05.

rsp

But the installer says 1.0.3… I have manually deleted the standalone app and reinstalling.

Now shows 1.0.5.. some patches sound but many have no sound now.

rsp

Ok…so when you say “no sound” what does this mean. If you change say the audio engine from instrument to synth, does it sound?

What I am getting at is if you have “no sound ever no matter what I try” or just no sound on a specific preset and when you change the engine to synth, you can hear say a sine wave. If it is this last case, then what might be wrong is that you manually deleted the Instruments folder, but the new beta doesn’t ship with Instruments as we wanted to make the binary a smaller download.

Does that make sense?

What I mean is I click on a preset, several presets that happens with, it loads and there is no audio coming from the synth..

I haven’t manually deleted anything,

I went back to 1.04, and there was sound on every preset, I then reinstalled 1.05 and indeed, many presets no sounds.

If it was easier to load videos here I could do a video.

rsp

I actually think it is your 1.05 installer that is removing stuff cause even when I try to manually load an instrument it comes up empty..

I just did it again.

1.05, then I resintalled 1.04.

rsp

Yeah, I’ve been working on it here…the installer was removing instruments, even if they were already installed.

I’ve updated the installer and just brought back instruments folder. The link at the top has also been replaced with the new installer that includes the Instruments folder.

Ok.. let me try it and report back.

rsp

That solved it.. good to go now.

Great @zvenx and thanks again for the help!
